The modronoid's size category must be [larger?] [equal to or larger?] than the base creature.Hit Dice and Hit Points: A brainswapped modronoid has the construct hit dice of the host modron. If the base creature had more hit dice than the host modron, the brainswapped modronoid's hit dice are increased to match the base creature by adding levels from the base creature, much like multiclassing as the base creature and gaining the appropriate Hit Dice. These additional Hit Dice modify the modronoid's base attack bonus and base saving throw bonuses accordingly.Speed: Same as host modron.Armor Class: Same as host modron.Attack: Same as host modron.Full Attack: Same as host modron.Damage: Same as host modron.Special Attacks: A brainswapped modronoid retains the special attacks from the base creature's class levels plus the base creature's spell casting and spell-like abilities.

It gains the following trait.Modronoid Madness (Ex): Modronoids use their Charisma modifier on Will saves instead of their Wisdom modifier and have immunity to insanity effects. A modronoid cannot be restored to sanity by any means short of a miracle or wish spell.*The racial madness of the modronoids provides a –2 penalty to their Wisdom scores. A modronoid restored to sanity gains 2 points of Wisdom.Abilities: Brainswapped modronoids have the mental ability scores of the base creature with –2 to Wisdom due to their modronoid madness. They use the physical ability scores of the host modron.Skills: Brainswapped modronoids retain the skill ranks of the base creature. Skills are modified by their new ability scores.Feats: Same as base creature.Environment: Same as base creature.Organization: Solitary or command (1 plus 25–144 modronoids) [?]Challenge Rating: ???Treasure: Same as base creature.Alignment: Always chaotic (any).
