Abilities
Tremorsense (Imprecise) 60 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.
Telepathy 100 feet (aura, magical) — A monster with telepathy can communicate mentally with any creatures within the listed radius, as long as they share a language. This doesn't give any special access to their thoughts, and communicates no more information than normal speech would.
Constant Spells — A constant spell affects the monster without the monster needing to cast it, and its duration is unlimited. If a constant spell gets counteracted, the monster can reactivate it by spending the normal spellcasting actions the spell requires.
+37 Will Save vs. Emotion Effects —
Emotional Focus — Hollow Hush can cast the following cleric domain spells as 9th-rank occult innate spells at will without spending Focus Points: Ignite Ambition, Captivating Adoration, and Delusional Pride.
Emotional Frenzy — Hollow Hush casts up to three spells chosen from its at-will innate spells and its emotional focus spells.
Feed on Emotion (attack, emotion, incapacitation, mental) — Frequency once per round
Effect Hollow Hush feeds on the emotional unrest of a single creature within 30 feet that's currently affected by an emotion effect. The target must succeed at a DC 41 Will save or take 5d10 mental damage and be Stunned for 1 round. If the target fails its saving throw, Hollow Hush regains the same number of Hit Points and Feed on Emotion does not cost Hollow Hush an action, allowing it to use another action this turn.

WORKS WELL WITH
AnvilLAND / AERIALEmotion control and feed-on-emotion debuffs soften targets so the Anvil can secure decisive hits against Will-weakened foes.
CrasherLAND / AERIALWeakened saves from at-will emotion spells create ideal conditions for a Crasher's burst attacks and charge routines.
SniperLAND / AERIALTelepathic coordination and emotion-based distraction occupy the party's attention, giving the Sniper clean sight lines to flat-footed targets.
PUNISHES
✖ emotion reliance✖ clumping✖ standing still✖ low Will
