Ghald

Traits

Assassinate

During its first turn, Ghald has advantage on attack rolls against any creature that hasn't taken a turn. Any hit Ghald scores against a surprised creature is a critical hit.

Limited Amphibiousness

Ghald can breathe air and water, but he needs to be submerged at least once every 4 hours to avoid suffocating.

Shark Telepathy

Ghald can magically command any shark within 120 feet of him, using a limited telepathy.

Sneak Attack

Ghald deals an extra 14 (4d6) damage when he hits a target with a weapon attack and has advantage on the attack roll, or when the target is within 5 feet of an ally of Ghald's that isn't incapacitated and Ghald doesn't have disadvantage on the attack roll.
