Abilities

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.
Thoughtsense (Imprecise) 60 feet (mental, occult) — Kirosthrek senses a creature's mental essence at the listed range.

Thoughtsense allows a monster to sense all non-mindless creatures at the listed range.
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.
Divert Thoughts (mental) — If she critically succeeds at the saving throw, she can use the Cast a Spell action on her next turn to cast the triggering spell at the same level without expending any spell slots.
Psychogenic Secretions (aura, mental) — 30 feet. A creature that enters the emanation must attempt a DC 42 Will save.

On a failure, the creature is Stupefied 1 for 1 minute (Stupefied 2 and also Paralyzed for 1 round on a critical failure).

A creature that succeeds at its save is temporarily immune to psychogenic secretions for 1 minute.
Consume Knowledge (mental, occult) — Kirosthrek invades the mind of a creature within 100 feet and attempts to swallow its capacity for higher thought. The creature must attempt a DC 42 Will save.

Using Consume Knowledge immediately ends any of the ability's previous effects on a different creature.

Critical Success The creature is unaffected.

Success The creature is Slowed 1 for 1 round.

Failure The creature is slowed 1 and can take no actions other than basic actions for 1 minute.

Critical Failure As failure, and Kirosthrek is Quickened for 1 minute. She can use this extra action to Stride, Strike, or Cast a Spell if the target had prepared spells or a spell repertoire.

WORKS WELL WITH

CrasherLAND / AERIALThe Crasher delivers physical punishment while Kirosthrek's mental control locks enemies inside the Psychogenic Secretions aura.
AnvilLAND / AERIALThe Anvil's durable front line keeps enemies trapped in the Stupefying aura while Kirosthrek uses Consume Knowledge from relative safety.
SniperLAND / AERIALThe Sniper exploits the flat-footed and stupefied conditions from Kirosthrek's mental assault, converting control into damage.
