A melee weapon deals one extra die of its damage when the afrotaur hits with it (included in the attack). Charge. If the afrotaur moves at least 20 feet straight toward a target and then hits it with a gore attack on the same turn, the target takes an extra 9 (2d8) bludgeoning damage. If the target is a creature, it must succeed on a DC 15 Strength saving throw or be knocked prone. Reckless. At the start of its turn, the afrotaur can gain advantage on all melee weapon attack rolls it makes during that turn, but attack rolls against it have advantage until the start of its next turn. Relentless (Recharges after a Short or Long Rest). If the afrotaur takes 14 damage or less that would reduce it to 0 hit points, it is reduced to 1 hit point instead. Wounded Fury. While it has 10 hit points or less, the afrotaur has advantage on attack rolls. In addition, it deals an extra 7 (2d6) damage to any target it hits with a melee attack. ACTIONSMultiattack.

An affected creature can repeat the saving throw at the end of each of its turns, ending the effect on itself on a success. BONUS ACTIONSAggressive. The afrotaur moves up to its speed toward a hostile creature that it can see. Rampage. When the afrotaur reduces a creature to 0 hit points with a melee attack on its turn, the afrotaur moves up to half its speed and makes a gore attack.

Afrotaurs are massive beasts that look like a mismatch of animals; with the stripes of a zebra, the upper body of a gorilla, and the horns and lower body of a rhino, these creatures are ferocious and not too fond of humanoids or other centaurs in their territories. |
