Offense

Abilities

Acid Breath — The wolf unleashes a stream of bright green acid from its mouth, coating all creatures in a 30-foot line. All creatures in the line take 3d6 acid damage (DC 16 Reflex save).

The caustic wolf cannot use this ability again for 1 minute.
Howl — The wolf unleashes a terrifying howl, allowing it to Demoralize all enemies within 30-foot emanation{30 feet}. Wolves within 100-foot emanation{100 feet} can spend a reaction to join the howl, causing the effect to emanate from them as well. This affects additional enemies within 30 feet of them and uses the caustic wolf's Intimidation check with a -4 circumstance penalty.

Enemies cannot be affected by the howl more than once, even if they are near more than one howling wolf. All creatures targeted by this effect are temporarily immune for 24 hours.
Knockdown

WORKS WELL WITH

AnvilLANDAnvil holds the enemy front line so the Acid Breath catches a denser cluster of targets.
WeaverLANDWeaver debuffs enemies before Knockdown attempts, making the Athletics check more reliable against key targets.
ShadeLANDHowl demoralizes enemies to lower Perception, making the Shade's Stealth approach more effective.
