Amphibious. The shark can breathe air and water, but must return to water to wet its gills once every hour.

Blood Frenzy. The shark has advantage on melee attack rolls against any creature with blood that doesn’t have all its hit points.

Keen Smell. The shark has advantage on Wisdom (Perception) checks that rely on scent when detecting a creature with blood that doesn’t have all its hit points.

Swoop. If the shark moves at least 20 feet straight toward a creature and then hits it with a bite attack on the same turn, that target must succeed on a DC 14 Strength saving throw or be knocked prone. If the target is prone, the shark can make one bite attack against it as a bonus action.

Actions

Bite. Melee Weapon Attack: +6 to hit, reach 5 ft., one target. Hit: 14 (2d8 + 5) piercing damage.

Feared by airship crews and coastal denizens, the sky shark is a fearsome flying predator that is a mutation of the more common Hunter Shark. Because they must return to water at least once every hour, sky sharks seldom roam inland more than a few miles. A fully grown sky shark is 15 to 20 feet long.
