Multiattack. The boneclaw makes two Piercing Claw attacks.   Piercing Claw. Melee Weapon Attack: +6 to hit, reach 15 ft. (3 sq.), one target. Hit: 8 ( 1d10+3 ) piercing damage plus 5 ( 1d10 ) necrotic damage. If the target is a creature, the boneclaw can pull the target up to 10 feet (2 sq.) toward itself, and the target is grappled (escape DC 12). The boneclaw has two claws. While a claw grapples a target, the claw can attack only that target.   Shadow Jump (Recharge 1d6>=5 ). Constitution Saving Throw: DC 12, any target of the boneclaw's choice within 15 feet (3 sq.) if the boneclaw is in dim light or darkness.

The destination spaces of this teleportation must be in dim light or darkness.
