A thought nibbler is a strange creature that feeds on the brains of other living beings. The nature of this rare creatures is probably related to wizardry.

Combat:

Thought nibblers attack intelligent beings to feed from their brains. They are patient and choose the correct time and place, when their target is alone.

Improved Grab (Ex): To use this ability, a thought nibbler must hit with a tentacle attack. It can then attempt to start a grapple as a free action without provoking an attack of opportunity.

Memory Loss (Su): If a thought nibbler hits with at least one tentacle, its victim must succeed at a Fortitude save (DC 15) or become stunned for 1 round, and lose last 1d4 hours memory, this includes the fact of been attacked by the nibbler. The subject can restore its memory only through a heal spell or by a memory restoration with limited wish, wish, or miracle.

Wring (Ex): If a thought nibbler hits with its 4 tentacles and maintains a hold, it can attempt to drain Intelligence points at a rate of 2d4 per round. A though nibbler leaves when it has drained a total of 20 points of intelligence.

gollark: People inevitably want to enforce whatever their particular bizarre views are on everyone, which causes badness and require systems which create more badness.
gollark: See, I personally support governments doing as little as possible because they cannot be trusted.
