Abilities
Greater Darkvision — A creature with greater darkvision can see perfectly well in areas of darkness and dim light, though such vision is in black and white only. A creature with greater darkvision can see through even forms of magical darkness.
Telepathy 100 Feet (aura, magical) — A monster with telepathy can communicate mentally with any creatures within the listed radius, as long as they share a language. This doesn't give any special access to their thoughts, and communicates no more information than normal speech would.
Constant Spells — A constant spell affects the monster without the monster needing to cast it, and its duration is unlimited. If a constant spell gets counteracted, the monster can reactivate it by spending the normal spellcasting actions the spell requires.

True Appearance —

Change Shape (concentrate, divine, polymorph) — The Stabbing Beast takes on the appearance of a Medium humanoid with a scorpion's tail and chitinous, full-body plate armor. This doesn't change their Speed or Strikes, except that their reach becomes 5 feet and they can't make pincer Strikes.
