Abilities & Attacks
Lifesense 60 feet. Lifesense allows a monster to sense the vital essence of living and undead creatures within the listed range. The sense can distinguish between the vitality energy animating living creatures and the void energy animating undead creatures, much as sight distinguishes colors. Pounce (1 action). The esobok Strides and then makes a Strike. If it began this action Hidden, it remains hidden until after the Strike. Shepherd's Touch. An esobok's Strikes affect incorporeal creatures with the effects of a Ghost Touch property rune and deal 1d6 void damage to living creatures and 1d6 vitality damage to undead. Wrench Spirit (1 action) (attack, divine, incapacitation). Requirements A creature is Grabbed or Restrained by the esobok's jaws. Effect The esobok releases the target from the Grab but wrenches its spirit free as it does so. The creature must attempt a DC 20 Will save. Creatures without souls (such as most constructs) and creatures whose bodies and souls are one (such as most celestials, fiends, and monitors) who roll a failure or critical failure on the save get a success instead. Critical Success The creature is unaffected. Success The target is Stunned 1. Failure The esobok wrenches the target's soul from its body into its jaws. Mindless undead creatures of level 2 or lower are destroyed, other undead creatures are stunned for 1 round, and all other creatures are Paralyzed. At the end of each of its turns, a creature paralyzed by this effect can attempt a new save to end the effect. The paralysis ends automatically if the esobok attempts a jaws Strike or speaks. Grab (1 action). Requirements The monster's last action was a successful Strike that lists Grab in its damage entry, or the monster has a creature Grabbed or Restrained. Effect If used after a Strike, the monster attempts to Grapple the creature using the body part it attacked with. This attempt neither applies nor counts toward the creature's multiple attack penalty. The monster can instead use Grab and choose one creature it's grabbing or restraining with an appendage that has Grab to automatically extend that condition to the end of the monster's next turn.
