Kugaptee's Drakauthix

Creature 9 (rare) — fiend, fungus, nindoru, unholy

The drakauthix is a massive fungus that floats through the heights of the largest Darklands caverns, propelled by bladders that spray air and spores. A voracious but slow-moving hunter, the drakauthix prefers to ambush meaty creatures from above, using its hooked appendages to pull its victims upward to feed. The drakauthix's digestive process is entirely external-it clings to victims, and its spore-laden surface slowly feeds on and grows through the flesh before the spore-infested carcass is di

Abilities

Sporesight (Imprecise) 60 feet — Kugaptee's drakauthixes exude clouds of spores that they use to see. This is an imprecise sense that functions only in areas without strong wind currents. Sporesight does not function underwater.
Obscuring Spores — Whenever the drakauthix takes at least 10 slashing damage, it releases a cloud of brown spores in a 20-foot emanation that persists for 1 minute (or until dispersed by a strong wind). All creatures within the spores become Concealed, and all creatures outside the spores become concealed to creatures within it. Within this cloud of spores, the drakauthix's sporesight becomes a precise sense. The spore cloud does not move with the drakauthix nor is it displaced by its movement.
Reel In — The drakauthix pulls all creatures it has Grabbed 15 feet closer to itself.
Spore Tendrils — The tendrils that cover the drakauthix's body reach out and infest adjacent creatures, dealing 4d6 poison plus 1d6 persistent poison damage (DC 27 Reflex save; a creature Grabbed by the drakauthix takes a –4 circumstance penalty to this save).
Whirlwind of Hooks — The drakauthix whirls, whipping creatures around it. It makes a tentacle Strike against every creature within reach. These attacks count toward the drakauthix's multiple attack penalty, but the multiple attack penalty doesn't increase until after the drakauthix makes all its attacks.
