  - name: "Toss"
    desc: "⬺  The hodag [[Stride|Strides]], then makes a [[Strike]] against a target in reach. If it moves at least 20 feet and succeeds at its [[Strike]], the hodag deals damage normally and then attempts an [[compendium/skills.md#Athletics|Athletics]] check against the creature's Fortitude DC to toss the enemy into the air. On a success, the tossed creature is thrown 10 feet in a straight line in the direction of the hodag's choice and then lands [[prone]]. If the creature is knocked into a solid object, it takes 1d6 (1d6) bludgeoning damage as well before landing [[prone]]. The hodag can instead toss a creature straight up in the air. The creature lands in the same square where it started, takes 1d6 (1d6) bludgeoning damage, and lands [[prone]]."
