Description
The Terminid Impaler is a frighteningly large creature, known for its heavily-armored body and terrifying method of ambush. Its main form of attack involves burrowing its 'head'—a cluster of three bladed tentacles—into the ground, allowing it to surprise its prey by erupting from multiple locations at once. With patience and cunning, the Impaler prepares its assault, but it has a notable weakness when it is stationary, exposing its vulnerable unarmored head.

Retraction
If targeted by ranged attacks while its tentacles are out, the Impaler can retract its tentacles and halt its attacks momentarily to prevent damage.
Tentacle Ambush
The Impaler burrows its tentacles into the ground and can re-emerge at any point within a 200-foot radius to surround prey, making melee attacks as it strikes with surprising speed.
Vulnerable Expose
When the Terminid Impaler burrows its tentacles, it exposes its weak point, allowing attacking characters to target the exposed head for critical damage.
