Pthalcant

Pthalcant

Pthalcants are blinking masses of durable eyeballs, standing 1-2 meters tall on their twenty long rubbery tentacles. Having no mouths, they eat by staring closely at their food for many minutes in order to mystically extract its caloric energy. They reproduce by splitting in half, each half retaining half of the original's memories.

Pthalcants don't have DNA, but rather a different, triple helix-based genetic code.

Extras  Heightened Awareness

Pthalcants have twenty tentacles, which are used both for locomotion and for holding things. It takes two tentacles to have the function equivalent to one hand. For every 4 tentacles that they use for holding things, they move 25% slower, to a minimum of 100% slower (0% speed) when using 16 or more tentacles.

Pthalcants get +3 to Agility for climbing checks.
