Instead, the damage creates cracks in its carapace, revealing its hearts. The ember swallower has three hearts in its chest. A heart has an AC of 14 and 20 [Hit Points](../../../Compendium/rules/variant-rules/hit-points-xphb). It is immune to bludgeoning, piercing, and slashing damage from nonmagical attacks and to fire, and it is immune to all conditions.
