Grizzat Swarm

Grizzat Swarm CR 5

Thousands of thumb-sized crimson and black mottled brains on wings dance in the air as a bee swarm dances. Everything it passes over is stripped of edible matter by their ravenous mouths.

SPECIAL ABILITIES

Cling (Ex)

If a creature leaves a grizzat swarm’s square, the swarm takes 1d6 damage to reflect the loss of its numbers as the crawling pests cling tenaciously to the victim. A creature with constituent grizzats clinging to him takes 1d4 damage at the end of his turn each round. As a full action, he can remove the grizzats with a DC 13 Reflex save. High wind or any amount of damage from an area effect destroys all clinging grizzats.

Consume (Ex)

A grizzat swarm can rapidly consume any creature it swarms over. Against helpless or nauseated targets, a grizzat swarm attack deals 2d6+5 damage plus 1d4 bleed damage if the target is not already affected.
