Keen Smell. The medusloth has advantage on Wisdom (Perception) checks that rely on smell.
Stony Aura. While the medusloth is alive, a sphere 15 feet in radius centered on the sloth creates an oppressive sensation of stone pressing in from all directions. All terrain within the sphere is difficult terrain. Any creature that moves more than 5 feet during its turn within the sphere must immediately succeed on a DC 12 Constitution saving throw or become restrained until the start of its next turn.
Actions
Multiattack. The medusloth makes a number of snake hair attacks equal to the number of targets within 5 feet.
Claw. Melee Weapon Attack: +5 to hit, reach 5 ft., one target. Hit: 7 (1d8 + 3) piercing damage plus 13 (3d8) poison damage.
Snake Hair. Melee Weapon Attack: +5 to hit, reach 5 ft., one target. Hit: 6 (1d6 + 3) piercing damage. The target must make a DC 12 Constitution saving throw. If the saving throw fails by 5 or more, or if the saving throw fails and the creature is already restrained by the medusloth’s Stony Aura, the creature is instantly petrified. Otherwise, a creature that fails the save begins to turn to stone and is restrained. The restrained creature must repeat the saving throw at the end of its next turn, becoming petrified on a failure or ending the effect on a success. The petrification lasts until the creature is freed by the greater restoration spell or other magic.

Stony Aura (aura, primal) 15 feet. The space within this aura feels oppressive, like the weight of rocks pressing in from all directions.

- Critical Success The target is unaffected.
- Success The target is immobilized until the start of its next turn.

Petrification (incapacitation, primal) The target must immediately attempt a Fortitude save against the medusloth’s stony aura. If the target was already slowed by stony aura before attempting its save, a failed save causes it to be petrified permanently. After attempting its save, the target is then temporarily immune until the start of the medusloth’s next turn.
