Death Throes. When a giant cave beetle reaches 0 hit points, it releases a strong acidic cloud in a 5-foot radius. Creatures within this area must make a DC 11 Constitution saving throw, taking 7 (2d6) acid damage on a failed saving throw, or half as much damage on a successful saving throw. Every giant cave beetle in 500 feet is capable of detecting the smell of this acid.
