Half of the time they look like Gibberlings, the other half they look like masses of writhing barbed tentacles. In either case they are horrifying to behold. CombatMad Chatterers never take on opponents that outnumber them. They make use of their time hop ability to further confuse baffled opponents.Alternate Form (Su): At will a mad chatterer creature can take the form of a grotesque, tentacled mass, but all its abilities remain unchanged despite its alien appearance. Changing shape is a standard action. Other creatures receive a –1 morale penalty against pseudonatural creatures in this alternate form.Bunching (Ex): mad chatterers swarm over and around each other with ease. Up to three mad chatterers can occupy the same 5-foot by 5-foot space.Energy Resistance (Ex): A mad chatterer ignores the first 5 points of acid and electrical damage dealt to it each round.Fire Vulnerability (Ex): A mad chatterer attacked with fire must make a Will save (DC 12) or hang back and refuse to advance the next round. The mad chatterer can still defend itself, it merely fails to advance or to attack in that round.Gibber (Ex): mad chatterers’ continual insane muttering and shrieking can unnerve creatures with fewer than 2 HD, requiring them to make a Will save (DC 10) or be shaken. Creatures with more HD do not have to make a Will save, but all Concentration checks by creatures who can hear mad chatterers within 200 feet suffer a -2 penalty. Note that in most circumstances mad chatterers’ gibbering prevents them from achieving surprise. Immunities (Ex): Like vermin, mad chatterers are immune to mind-influencing effects, including charms, compulsions, phantasms, and morale effects.Light Vulnerability (Ex): Daylight, or the daylight spell, affects mad chatterers like a slow spell. They get no save against this effect. Being slowed in this fashion does not deter mad chatterers from attacking, it just renders them less effective.Psionics (Sp): At will -  Time Hop; This ability is as the powers manifested by an 1st-level psion.Attack/Defense Modes (Sp): At will – ego whip /empty mindTeamwork (Ex): For every two mad chatterers that are grappling a foe, all mad chatterers get a +2 competence bonus on attacks against that foe.True Strike (Su): A mad chatterer may once per day make a normal attack with a +20 insight modifier on a single attack roll. The creature is not affected by the miss chance that applies to attacks against concealed targets.</blockquote>
