Hit: 8 ( 1d10+3 ) piercing damage plus 5 ( 1d10 ) necrotic damage. If the target is a creature, the boneclaw can pull the target up to 10 feet (2 sq.) toward itself, and the target is grappled (escape DC 12). The boneclaw has two claws. While a claw grapples a target, the claw can attack only that target.   Shadow Jump (Recharge 1d6>=5 ).
