Nearby creatures and objects are pushed to the nearest available space and must make a successful DC 15 Strength saving throw or fall prone. Weapons, armor, and other objects worn or carried by the hulking whelp grow (and shrink again) proportionally when it changes size. Overcome by raw emotion, it sets about destroying anything and everything it can see (which isn't much) and reach (which is quite a lot). The transformation lasts until the hulking whelp is unaware of any nearby creatures for 1 round, it drops to 0 hit points, it has 5 levels of exhaustion, or it's affected by a calm emotions spell or comparable magic. The transformation isn't entirely uncontrollable; people or creatures the whelp knows and trusts can be near it without triggering the reaction. Under the wrong conditions, such as in a populated area, a hulking whelp's Unleashed Emotion can last for days." } ], "creaturesets": [], "environments": [ { "name": "Arctic or Tundra", "key": "arctic", "url": "https://api-beta.open5e.com/v2/environments/arctic/?format=api" }, { "name": "Caves", "key": "caves", "url": "https://api-beta.open5e.com/v2/environments/caves/?format=api" }, { "name": "Coast", "key": "coast", "url": "https://api-beta.open5e.com/v2/environments/coast/?format=api" }, { "name": "Desert", "key": "desert", "url": "https://api-beta.open5e.com/v2/environments/desert/?format=api" }, { "name": "Forest or Jungle", "key": "forest", "url": "https://api-beta.open5e.com/v2/environments/forest/?format=api" }, { "name": "Grassland or Plains", "key": "grassland", "url": "https://api-beta.open5e.com/v2/environments/grassland/?format=api" }, { "name": "Hills", "key": "hills", "url": "https://api-beta.open5e.com/v2/environments/hills/?format=api" }, { "name": "Laboratory", "key": "laboratory", "url": "https://api-beta.open5e.com/v2/environments/laboratory/?format=api" }, { "name": "Lake", "key": "lake", "url": "https://api-beta.open5e.com/v2/environments/lake/?format=api" }, { "name": "Mountain", "key": "mountain", "url": "https://api-beta.open5e.com/v2/environments/mountain/?format=api" }, { "name": "Ocean", "key": "ocean", "url": "https://api-beta.open5e.com/v2/environments/ocean/?format=api" }, { "name": "Ruins", "key": "ruins", "url": "https://api-beta.open5e.com/v2/environments/ruins/?format=api" }, { "name": "Sewer", "key": "sewer", "url": "https://api-beta.open5e.com/v2/environments/sewer/?format=api" }, { "name": "Shadowfell", "key": "shadowfell", "url": "https://api-beta.open5e.com/v2/environments/shadowfell/?format=api" }, { "name": "The Abyss", "key": "srd_abyss", "url": "https://api-beta.open5e.com/v2/environments/srd_abyss/?format=api" }, { "name": "Astral Plane", "key": "srd_astral-plane", "url": "https://api-beta.open5e.com/v2/environments/srd_astral-plane/?format=api" }, { "name": "Elysium", "key": "srd_elysium", "url": "https://api-beta.open5e.com/v2/environments/srd_elysium/?format=api" }, { "name": "Ethereal Plane", "key": "srd_ethereal-plane", "url": "https://api-beta.open5e.com/v2/environments/srd_ethereal-plane/?format=api" }, { "name": "Feywild", "key": "srd_feywild", "url": "https://api-beta.open5e.com/v2/environments/srd_feywild/?format=api" }, { "name": "Hell", "key": "srd_hell", "url": "https://api-beta.open5e.com/v2/environments/srd_hell/?format=api" }, { "name": "Material Plane", "key": "srd_material-plane", "url": "https://api-beta.open5e.com/v2/environments/srd_material-plane/?format=api" }, { "name": "Plane of Air", "key": "srd_plane-of-air", "url": "https://api-beta.open5e.com/v2/environments/srd_plane-of-air/?format=api" }, { "name": "Plane of Earth", "key": "srd_plane-of-earth", "url": "https://api-beta.open5e.com/v2/environments/srd_plane-of-earth/?format=api" }, { "name": "Plane of Fire", "key": "srd_plane-of-fire", "url": "https://api-beta.open5e.com/v2/environments/srd_plane-of-fire/?format=api" }, { "name": "Plane of Water", "key": "srd_plane-of-water", "url": "https://api-beta.open5e.com/v2/environments/srd_plane-of-water/?format=api" }, { "name": "Swamp or Marsh", "key": "swamp", "url": "https://api-beta.open5e.com/v2/environments/swamp/?format=api" }, { "name": "Temple", "key": "temple", "url": "https://api-beta.open5e.com/v2/environments/temple/?format=api" }, { "name": "Badlands", "key": "tob_badlands", "url": "https://api-beta.open5e.com/v2/environments/tob_badlands/?format=api" }, { "name": "Tomb", "key": "tomb", "url": "https://api-beta.open5e.com/v2/environments/tomb/?format=api" }, { "name": "Underworld", "key": "underworld", "url": "https://api-beta.open5e.com/v2/environments/underworld/?format=api" }, { "name": "Urban", "key": "urban", "url": "https://api-beta.open5e.com/v2/environments/urban/?format=api" } ] }
