Gosreg

Creature 11 (uncommon) — aberration

Gosregs are agents of the Dominion of the Black who insinuate themselves into humanoid societies to implement the goals of their sinister masters. They're generally tasked with observing and waiting, hiding in disguised forms until their location is ripe for harvest. When this occurs, they reveal themselves as living psychic beacons, signaling their distant masters and guiding invasion forces. Over the years of an infiltration, a gosreg will assume dozens of roles, relishing any intense emotions
