Hooktongue Hydra
A twelve-headed serpent lashes out with barbed tongues from every maw, and each severed head grows back unless the stump is burned.
A twelve-headed serpent named for the barbed tongues that lash from each maw, the Hooktongue Hydra is a tangle of striking necks that grows back faster than most foes can hack it apart. Cut a head and two threats remain where one stood.
Attack of Opportunity [Reaction]
Head Regrowth The Hooktongue Hydra has twelve heads. A creature can attempt to sever one of the hydra's heads by specifically targeting it and dealing damage equal to the head's Hit Points. A head that is not completely severed returns to full Hit Points at the end of any creature's turn.
A hydra can regrow a severed head using Hydra Regeneration. A creature can prevent this regrowth by dealing acid or fire damage to the stump, cauterizing it.
