Voidworm - creature 1
CNTINYMONITORPROTEAN
| Other proteans don’t consider the flying, iridescent beings known as voidworms to be part of a protean caste at all, but instead merely a shameful side effect of the Maelstrom’s constantly churning energy. To call a voidworm a protean in the presence of a more powerful protean is as sure a way to instigate combat as any. Voidworms themselves have little interest in whether anyone sees them as proteans. They maintain a thriving ecology in the Maelstrom, frolicking in schools of up to 20 and playing in the chaos of constantly shifting realities. Elsewhere (such as on the Material Plane), voidworms are mesmerized by the principle of object permanence; many latch onto specific features of a region (such as a hillside or pond) and flit through the air around it for months or even years as they wait for the object of their curiosity to change. Minor changes—such as a tree’s change of color in the fall, a corpse’s slow decay, or periodic venting of steam from a geyser—all fascinate voidworms. A voidworm is about 2 feet long and weighs 2 pounds. | |

| Special Abilities | Protean Anatomy (divine, transmutation) A voidworm’s vital organs shift and change shape and position constantly. Immediately after the voidworm takes acid, electricity, or sonic damage, it gains the listed amount of resistance to that damage type. This lasts for 1 hour or until the next time the protean takes damage of one of the other types (in which case its resistance changes to match that type), whichever comes first. The voidworm is immune to polymorph effects unless it is a willing target. If blinded or deafened, the voidworm automatically recovers at the end of its next turn as new sensory organs grow to replace the compromised ones. Fast Healing A monster with this ability regains the given number of Hit Points each round at the beginning of its turn. |

This doesn’t change its Speed or its attack and damage bonuses with its Strikes, but might change the damage type its Strikes deal. Confounding Lash (divine, emotion, enchantment, mental) A creature hit by the voidworm’s tail Strike is Stupefied 1 for 1 round (stupefied 2 on a critical hit). A successful DC 16 Will save negates this effect and grants temporary immunity to confounding lash for 1 minute. |
