Traits
Candy Construct

The dire gummy bear doesn’t require air, food, drink, or sleep.

Sticky Body

A creature that hits the dire gummy bear with a melee attack while within 5 feet of it must succeed on a DC 13 Strength saving throw or have its weapon or limb stick to the bear until the start of the creature’s next turn.

While stuck this way, the creature can’t use that limb/weapon to make attacks. The creature can use a bonus action to pull free with a successful DC 13 Strength (Athletics) check.

Running Gelatin

If the dire gummy bear takes slashing damage, it has advantage on its next saving throw against being grappled, restrained, or knocked prone before the end of its next turn.

Actions
Multiattack

The dire gummy bear makes two attacks: one with its Bite and one with its Claws.

Bite

Melee Weapon Attack: +7 to hit, reach 5 ft., one target.
Hit: 10 (1d10 + 5) piercing damage, and the target must succeed on a DC 13 Constitution saving throw or take 4 (1d8) acid damage at the start of its next turn as the gummy saliva begins to dissolve flesh and armor.

Claws

Melee Weapon Attack: +7 to hit, reach 5 ft., one target.
Hit: 12 (2d6 + 5) slashing damage.

Gummy Hug (Recharge 5–6)

The dire gummy bear lunges and compresses around a creature it can see within 5 feet. The target must succeed on a DC 15 Strength saving throw or be grappled (escape DC 15).

While grappled this way, the target is also restrained, and it takes 7 (2d6) bludgeoning damage at the start of each of the bear’s turns.

The dire gummy bear can grapple only one creature at a time with this feature.

Notes 

• The ultimate conjuration for Confectioner artificers, candy alchemists, and wizards who love to experiment in the properties of gelatin, the Dire Gummy Bear is a construct that typically possesses an elemental spirit that gives it life. While much of its body is made a sticky sweet coating, its teeth and claws are magically hardened and its saliva is pure concentrate of citric acid that burn through armor and flesh.
• The unique texture of the Dire Gummy Bear's body has the ability to trap weapons that pierce through the smooth texture of the gummy bear's surface.
• Comes in a variety of colors, such as cherry red, lemon yellow, and strawberry green.
