[QUOTE="Cleon, post: 7912053, member: 57383"] How about Charisma 9 or 7 so it has three odd ability scores and three even scores? I guess we should do Infestation before Constant Vigilance. I'll have a stab at a rough draft… [B]Infestation (Ex):[/B] If a worry-wart lands on a living creature (which may require a +10 melee touch attack to make contact) it can attempt to merge with the target. If the creature succeeds at a DC 15 Fortitude save, their physiology rejects the worry-wart and that particular [I]nibish-riule[/I] can never infest the creature (although another worry-wart might succeed). Should the target fail the saving throw, the worry-wart bonds to the creature's skin and becomes indistinguishable from an ordinary "beauty mark" or wart. The worry-wart then slowly grows a network of tiny fibers throughout the creature's body that link the worry-wart to its host's nerves and blood vessels. Every week or so another "beauty mark" wart pops up from the host's skin where the network forms a cluster After 2d10+20 days the symbiotic network is completed with a total of 1d4+2 beauty marks. The worry-wart gains the ability to communicate with its host telepathically and grants its host the benefits of its constant vigilance ability. Each "beauty mark" of a complete network is an eye the worry-wart can open to view its surroundings. These eyes can pop out on stalks to peer around itself, the flexible eyestalks can easily curl round to stare at the host's body or face. Worry-warts are very hard to get rid of once they infest a host. A worry-wart can be surgically excised by ??? (each attempt does ??? damage) or removed by the spells ???. [[COLOR=red]Or just plaster over them???.[/COLOR]] The saving throw is Constitution-based and includes a +5 racial bonus. [/QUOTE]
