Traits

Flyby. The peryton doesn't provoke an Opportunity Attack when it flies out of an enemy's reach.

Actions

Multiattack. The peryton makes one Gore attack and one Talons attack.

Gore. Melee Attack Roll: +5, reach 5 ft. Hit: 7 (1d8 + 3) Piercing damage. If the peryton moved 30+ feet straight toward the target immediately before the hit, the target takes an extra 9 (2d8) Piercing damage.

Talons. Melee Attack Roll: +5, reach 5 ft. Hit: 8 (2d4 + 3) Piercing damage. If the attack reduces a Humanoid target to 0 Hit Points, the peryton kills the target by removing its heart.
