Thoughtsense 60 feet — The rhu-chalik senses a creature's mental essence as a precise sense with the listed range; it cannot sense mindless creatures with thoughtsense.

No Breath — A rhu-chalik doesn't breathe and is immune to effects that require breathing (such as inhaled poisons).
Excruciating Enzyme (occult, poison) — A rhu-chalik's tendrils secrete an enzyme that causes intense pain. A living creature hit by a tendril Strike must succeed at a DC 24 Fortitude save or become Sickened 1 from the pain.
Label Memories (mental, occult) — The rhu-chalik invades the mind of a target within 100 feet, sorting the memories into alien structures for transmission. The target must attempt a DC 24 Will save. **Critical Success** The target creature is unaffected and temporarily immune to Label Memories for 1 minute. **Success** The target is unaffected. **Failure** The target becomes Stupefied 2 for 1 minute as its mind is reorganized to fit the rhu-chalik's needs. If it's already stupefied by this effect, the target instead becomes Confused for 1 minute or until it recovers due to taking damage. **Critical Failure** As failure, but if the target is already stupefied by Label Memories, they become Paralyzed for 1 minute instead of confused.
