When suitable prey enters the water above it, the hide rises tand attempts to engulf its victim. Treat the attack as a grapple. If the hide is successful, it will engulf its victim on the next turn. To break free, the victim must succeed in a Contest of ST. The hide is at -3 for the first turn only — after that, it’s a straight Contest.
