Vampiric Mist
Hey Boz! I hope I'm not stepping on too many toes here, but I've always loved this guy, and this is my recent workup on him. I was getting ready to throw him at my PCs soon. Please feel free to rip, tear, & shred this if you've got a better idea (I couldn't find a way to ask you to convert on on the CC website - so I had to take a stab at it).

Challenge Rating: 3
Treasure: ??

Combat: a Vampiric mist attacks by engulfing a foe with its body & draining the victim of all his body fluids.
Engulf (Ex): if successful in a touch attack, as a standard action can attempt to engulf a medium–sized or smaller creature; this involves a grapple check that does not provoke an AOO. If it succeeds in the grapple, it drains 1D2 CON every round as long as it maintains the grapple. After it drains 8 points on CON, it is satiated & disengages.
Susceptibility: after draining 8 points of CON, the ‘mist moves at 20ft, and has AC13 for 1 hour.
So let me know where you were going, and if this is in the same general direction?
