Sneak Attack (1/Turn). The knave deals an extra 14 (4d6) damage when it hits a target with a weapon attack and has advantage on the attack roll, or when the target is within 5 feet of an ally of the knave that isn’t incapacitated and the knave doesn’t have disadvantage on the attack roll.
Spellcasting. The knave is a 3th-level spellcaster. Its spellcasting ability is wisdom (spell save DC 15, +7 to hit with spell attacks). The knave has the following druid spells prepared:
-
Cantrips (at will): mending, thorn whip
