{{5e Ability|Multiattack|The behir makes two attacks: one with its bite and one to constrict}}

{{5e Ability|Bite|''Melee Weapon Attack:'' +10 to hit, {{SRD5|Reach}} 10 ft., one target. ''Hit:'' 22 (3d10+6) {{srd5lc|Piercing}} damage.}}

{{5e Ability|Constrict|''Melee Weapon Attack:'' +10 to hit, reach 5 ft., one {{SRD5|Large}} or smaller creature. ''Hit:'' 17 (2d10+6) {{srd5lc|Bludgeoning}} damage plus 17 (2d10+6) {{srd5lc|Slashing}} damage. The target is {{srd5lc|Grappled}} (escape {{SRD5|DC}} 16) if the behir isn't already constricting a creature, and the target is {{srd5lc|Restrained}} until this grapple ends.}}

{{5e Ability|Lightning Breath|limit=({{SRD5|Recharge}} 5-6)|The behir exhales a {{srd5lc|Line}} of lightning that is 20 feet long and 5 feet wide. Each creature in that line must make a DC 16 {{SRD5|Dexterity}} {{srd5lc|Saving Throw}}, taking 66 (12d10) {{srd5lc|Lightning}} damage on a failed save, or half as much damage on a successful one.}}

{{5e Ability|Swallow|The behir makes one bite attack against a {{SRD5|Medium}} or smaller target it is grappling. If the attack hits, the target is also swallowed, and the grapple ends. While swallowed, the target is {{srd5lc|Blinded}} and restrained, it has {{srd5lc|Total Cover}} against attacks and other effects outside the behir, and it takes 21 (6d6) {{srd5lc|Acid}} damage at the start of each of the behir’s turns. A behir can have only one creature swallowed at a time. 

If the behir takes 30 damage or more on a single turn from the swallowed creature, the behir must succeed on a DC 14 {{SRD5|Constitution}} saving throw at the end of that turn or regurgitate the creature, which falls {{srd5lc|Prone}} in a space within 10 feet of the behir. If the behir dies, a swallowed creature is no longer restrained by it and can escape from the corpse by using 15 feet of movement, exiting prone.}}
