Abilities & Attacks
Tremorsense 30 feet. Tremorsense allows a monster to feel the vibrations through a solid surface caused by movement. It is an imprecise sense with a limited range (listed in the ability). Tremorsense functions only if the monster is on the same surface as the subject, and only if the subject is moving along (or burrowing through) the surface. Swarm Mind. This monster doesn't have a single mind (typically because it's a swarm of smaller creatures), and is immune to mental effects that target only a specific number of creatures. It is still subject to mental effects that affect all creatures in an area. Blood Draining Bites (1 action). Each enemy in the swarm's space takes 2d6 piercing damage (DC 21 basic Reflex save). A creature who fails the Reflex save also takes 1d6 persistent bleed damage and is exposed to brood leech swarm venom. Brood Leech Swarm Venom (poison). Saving Throw DC 21 Fortitude save. Maximum Duration 6 rounds. Stage 1 Clumsy 1, Sickened 1, and –5-foot status penalty to Speed (1 round). Stage 2 clumsy 1, sickened 1, and –10-foot status penalty to Speed (1 round).
