The werebat can use its action to polymorph into a bat-humanoid hybrid or into a Medium-sized bat, or back into its true form, which is humanoid. Its statistics, other than its AC, are the same in each form with the exception that only its true and bat forms retain its flying speed. Any equipment it is wearing or carrying isn’t transformed. It reverts to its true form if it dies.

Echolocation.

The werebat can’t use its blindsight while deafened.

Keen Hearing.

The werebat has advantage on Wisdom (Perception) checks that rely on hearing.

Sunlight Sensitivity.

While in sunlight, the werebat has disadvantage on attack rolls, as well as on Wisdom (Perception) checks that rely on sight.
