Description
While you are in a Wild Shape form, attacks you make using natural weapons are considered magical and gain a +1 to their attack rolls. Additionally, when you deal Piercing, Slashing, or Bludgeoning damage from one of these attacks, the attack does an extra 1d6 damage.
If you reduce a creature to 0 hit points while in a Wild Shape form, you must make a DC 14 Wisdom saving throw. On a failure, you become overwhelmed with animalistic fury. You may immediately move up to your movement and make one melee attack.
While in this state, you regard the creature nearest to you that you can see or hear as your prey. If there are multiple possible creatures, choose one at random. On each of your turns, you must move as close to your prey as possible and use your Action to attack them. If you're unable to get close enough to your prey to attack it, take the Dash action if available. If your prey dies or can no longer be seen or heard by you, the next nearest creature that you can see or hear becomes your new target.
This state ends when you start your turn and there are no creatures within 60 feet of you that you can see or hear, or when your are no longer in a Wild Shape form. You cannot willingly leave your Wild Shape form while in this state.
Any creature that you can hear can use their Action to make a Persuasion check in an attempt to calm you down. The DC of this check is equal to 8 + your Wisdom modifier + your Proficiency Bonus. On a success, your fury ends and you regain control of yourself. Hostile creatures make this check with Disadvantage.
