Pounce. If the likho moves at least 20 feet straight toward a creature and then hits it with a claw attack on the same turn, that target must succeed on a DC 14 Strength saving throw or be knocked prone. If the target is prone, the likho can use a bonus action to make two additional claw attacks against it.

1/day: bestow curse

Magic Resistance. The likho has advantage on saving throws against spells and other magical effects.
