Ambush Predator. If the bolotnik surprises a Medium or smaller creature and hits it on its first turn in combat, the creature is restrained (escape DC 15). While restrained in this way, it is considered to be suffocating.

Amphibious. The bolotnik can breathe air and water.

Natural Camouflage. The bolotnik has advantage on stealth checks while it is submerged in water.

Voice Mimicry. The bolotnik can mimic sounds it has heard, including voices. A creature that hears the sounds can tell they are imitations with a successful Wisdom (Insight) check opposed by the bolotnik's Charisma (Deception) check. The bolotnik speaks no language. When it mimics a voice, it has no comprehension of the words being spoken.

Unnatural Strength. The bolotnik takes no movement penalty for dragging a Medium or smaller creature that it has grappled.
