Nerve Swimmers

[Knight Otu]

Now I could bathe in the glory, or just tell you where the name really came from...

If I were you, I'd bathe.

However, inquiring minds want to know.

 

[Knight Otu]

The name came from one of the Seventh Sanctum generators (Dark Minions, I believe), and immediately demanded to be monsterified. The result is what you see in the first post.

Very cool.

Inspiration hangs out in unlikely places.

Minor typo below: "inhabit" should be "inhabits".

Nerve Strike (Ex): Five times per day, a nerve swimmer swarm that inhabit a host can stop the host from taking any conscious action by absorbing its nerve impulses. The host must succeed on a DC 19 Fortitude save or be affected as if by a hold monster spell (caster level 6th). The nerve swimmers control the victim’s body directly instead of the mind; therefore this ability is not mind-affecting. The victim can attempt a saving throw every round to shake off the effects of the nerve strike. The save DC is Constitution-based.
