If their Wisdom modifier is negative, they can heal of their Wisdom modifier multiplied by -1. LEGENDARY ACTIONS The pundrake can take 3 legendary actions, choosing from the options below. Only one legendary action option can be used at a time and only at the end of another creature's turn. The pundrake regains spent legendary actions at the start of its turn. Claw.

The pundrake can be a truly terrifying beast, despite its nonchalant grin and wry sense of humor. But be careful near a pundrake. Even his allies are hardly immune to his effects, as his puns cause all creatures to cringe terribly. Sometimes, his puns are so bad, they put people into cardiac arrest. Only the most foolish of beings can resist his terrible jokes, as they are so stupid they have no idea what he is doing to make the others cringe so terribly. That being said, it is actually the most stupid person in the party that has the greatest chance of defeating a pundrake.
