Kithangian

Telepathy 100 feet (aura, magical, mental) — 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.

All-Around Vision — This monster can see in all directions simultaneously and therefore can't be flanked.

+1 Status to All Saves vs. Magic —

Animal Kindness Vulnerability — Kithangians find kindness to animals revolting. The first time each round that a kithangian sees someone heal or otherwise provide aid to a creature that has the animal trait, the kithangian takes 3d6 mental.

Animal Killer — A kithangian's melee Strikes deal an additional 2d6 damage to animals.

Change Shape (concentrate, divine, polymorph) — The kithangian can take on the appearance of any Medium or Large animal. This doesn't change its Speed or their attack and damage modif ers with its Strikes, but it might change the damage type its Strikes deal.

The monster changes its shape indefinitely. It can use this action again to return to its natural shape or adopt a new shape. Unless otherwise noted, a monster cannot use Change Shape to appear as a specific individual. Using Change Shape counts as creating a disguise for the Impersonate use of Deception. The monster's transformation automatically defeats Perception DCs to determine whether the creature is a member of the ancestry or creature type into which it transformed, and it gains a +4 status bonus to its Deception DC to prevent others from seeing through its disguise. Change Shape abilities specify what shapes the monster can adopt. The monster doesn't gain any special abilities of the new shape, only its physical form. For example, in each shape, it replaces its normal Speeds and Strikes, and might potentially change its senses or size. Any changes are listed in its stat block.
