Plaguebellies spew toxic fumes with every breath. Any creature that comes within 5 feet of a plaguebelly ogre or starts its turn there must make a DC 13 Constitution saving throw. On a failure, the creature takes 9 (2d8) poison damage and contracts sewer plague or another disease of the GM’s choice. Creatures that succeed this saving throw take half damage and do not contract this disease. Death Burst. When the ogre dies, its Miasma expands to a radius of 20 feet and lasts until what would be the beginning of its next turn. ACTIONS Multiattack. The plaguebelly makes two greatclub attacks, or one greatclub attack and one spew bile attack. Greatclub. Melee Weapon Attack: +7 to hit, reach 5 ft., one target. Hit: 17 (3d8 + 4) bludgeoning damage, and the target must roll a Strength saving throw. On a failed saving throw, it is pushed 10 feet away from the plaguebelly in a straight line. On a successful saving throw, it is not pushed. Spew Bile. Ranged Weapon Attack: +7 to hit, range 30 ft., one target. Hit: 14 (4d6) acid damage and 14 (4d6) poison damage. REACTIONS Spew Bile (Recharge 5–6). When the plaguebelly takes damage from a ranged attack, it can spew bile, as the action above.

{{{description}}} A suffocating, burning miasma surrounds the monstrosity that looms above you. Its scarred flesh is gangrenous and black, and its lips are flecked with green bile. The first plaguebelly ogre was created when a band of adventurers slew a priest of the God of Disease. The wrathful deity cursed them with a virulent plague, but it was a tribe of ogres who finally finished them off, and ate their bodies. Pleased with this turn of events, the deity granted the whole tribe immunity to the disease they carried, insofar as the disease could not kill them. The offspring of that tribe, even with ogres of other tribes, become plaguebellies and spread sickness wherever they walk.
