The dipsa can move through a space as narrow as 1 inch wide without squeezing.

Discreet Bite.

The bite of a dipsa is barely perceptible and the wound is quickly anesthetized. A creature bitten must succeed on a DC 15 Wisdom (Perception) check to notice the attack or any damage taken from it.

Swamp Stealth.

The dipsa gains an additional +2 (+9 in total) to Stealth in swamp terrain.

Translucent.

The dipsa can take the Hide action as a bonus action on each of its turns.

Actions

Bite. Melee Weapon Attack: +0 to hit, reach 0 ft., one creature. Hit: 1 piercing damage, and the dipsa attaches to the target. A creature with a dipsa attached takes 3 (1d6) acid damage per round per dipsa, and it must make a successful DC 12 Constitution saving throw or have its hit point maximum reduced by an amount equal to the damage taken. If a creature’s hit point maximum is reduced to 0 by this effect, the creature dies. This reduction to a creature’s hit point maximum lasts until it is affected by a lesser restoration spell or comparable magic.
