Multiattack. The sea serpent makes a number of attacks equal to half this spell’s level (rounded down).

Allure (Glowing Lantern only). The sea serpent causes a lantern hanging from one of its fins to glow eerily. Wisdom Saving Throw: DC equals your spell save DC, each creature in a 30-foot Emanation originating from the sea serpent. Failure: The target is Charmed by the sea serpent until the start of its next turn.

Success: Half damage.

Bite. Melee Attack Roll: Bonus equals your spell attack modifier, reach 5 ft. Hit: 1d6 + 3 + the spell’s level Piercing damage and the creature has the Grappled condition (escape DC equals your spell save DC). The Grappled condition ends if the sea serpent bites a different creature.

Thrash. Melee Attack Roll: Bonus equals your spell attack modifier, reach 10 ft. Hit: 1d10 + 3 + the spell’s level Bludgeoning damage and the target is pushed 5 feet away from the sea serpent.
