    "As a {@action Utilize|XPHB} action, you can set a Hunting Trap, which is a sawtooth steel ring that snaps shut when a creature steps on a pressure plate in the center. The trap is affixed by a heavy chain to an immobile object, such as a tree or a spike driven into the ground. A creature that steps on the plate must succeed on a {@dc 13} Dexterity saving throw or take {@damage 1d4} Piercing damage and have its {@variantrule Speed|XPHB} reduced to 0 until the start of its next turn. Thereafter, until the creature breaks free of the trap, its movement is limited by the length of the chain (typically 3 feet). A creature can use its action to make a {@dc 13} Strength ({@skill Athletics|XPHB}) check, freeing itself or another creature within its reach on a success. Each failed check deals 1 Piercing damage to the trapped creature."
