Actions
Multiattack. Spurchia makes two attack with Candy Cane+2 and one with Hidden stone in the Snowball or one with Coal Rain.
Candy Cane+2. Melee Weapon Attack: +7 to hit, reach 15 ft., one target. Hit: 9 (1d10 + 4) slashing damage. If the target is a Medium or smaller creature, it is grappled (escape DC 16). Until this grapple ends, Spurchia can't use its Candy Cane on another target. If the Candy Cane makes a critical hit, the user may choose instead of doing the doubled damage to heal himself by 2 Hit-Dice plus 2.
Hidden stone in the snowball. Ranged Weapon Attack: +7 to hit, range 20/60 ft., one target. Hit: 8 (1d8 + 4) 7 damage. The target must succeed on a Constitution saving throw (CD 15) or be stunned until the end of your next turn.
Coal Rain (Recharge 5-6). Spurchia magically summons a Coal Rain that fills a 30-foot-radius sphere centered on a point Spurchia can see within 60 feet of itself. The cloud spreads around corners. Each creature in that area must make a DC 16 Constitution saving throw as the rain of Coal begins to fall. On a failed save, a creature takes 26 (4d12) fire damage and has the prone condition. On a successful save, a creature takes half as much damage only.
Legendary Actions
