Once a tickler makes a person laugh, do they continue laughing until the tickler is killed or removed?  Or do they have attempt to "tickle" the target every round (with an attack roll and will save).Thanks for your help!___________________________________________________________________  TICKLERFine AberrationHit Dice: 1/4d8 (1 hp)Initiative: +8 (Dex)Speed: Fly 40 ft (perfect)AC: 26 (+8 size, +8 Dex)Attacks: Tickle +4 melee touchDamage: None (see text)Face/Reach: 0 ft by 0 ft/0 ftSpecial Attacks: TickleSpecial Qualities: Vulnerabilities, immunitiesSaves: Fort +0, Ref +8, Will +0Abilities: Str 2, Dex 26, Con 11, Int 2, Wis 6, Cha 2Climate/Terrain: Any land and undergroundOrganization: Flock (3-12)Challenge Rating: 1/10Treasure: NoneAlignment: Always neutralAdvancement: None This bizarre creature appears as a tiny ball of gray flesh from which projects a pair of featherlike white wings. A tickler is about 2 inches long. It can be found anywhere except in the very hottest and coldest regions.  Combat A tickler “attacks” by flying under a victim’s armor or clothing and tickling its opponent. It is theorized that these creatures feed off the laughter generated by their attacks. They will depart a dead or unconscious victim or any victim otherwise silenced (such as by a silence spell).    Tickle (Ex): A tickler attacks by slipping under an opponent’s armor and tickling its foe by making a melee touch attack. If successful, an opponent must succeed at a Will save (DC 10 +1 per additional tickler) or break into uncontrollable laughter until the tickler is removed. A creature that laughs for more than 6 rounds, must make a Fortitude save (DC 10 + 1 per additional tickler) or take 1 point of damage per round thereafter.     Affected creatures can take no action while laughing and must remove their armor in order to kill the ticklers, though the ticklers can be attacked through normal clothing. (An affected creature must have his armor removed as he cannot remove it himself while laughing.) Stripping off clothing or armor causes the tickers to find a new opponent.    Creatures with at least +1 natural armor are immune to the effects of a tickler.    Immunities (Ex): Ticklers are immune to all mind-influencing spells and effects, and ignore all illusions.    Vulnerabilities (Ex): Water renders a tickler helpless and immobile for 1d4+1 rounds.</blockquote>
