Ocean Floor Camouflage. The manta ray has advantage on Dexterity (Stealth) checks made to hide while lying on the ocean floor.
Charge. If the manta ray moves at least 30 feet straight toward a target and then hits it with a ram attack on the same turn, the target takes an extra 10 (3d6) bludgeoning damage. If the target is a creature, it must succeed on a DC 16 Constitution saving throw or be stunned. The stunned creature may repeat the saving throw at the end of each of its turns to end the effect on it.
