Sukuya

A close relative of the flame imp, the sukuya is a winged fireball that eats creatures' insides and inhabits their skins.

Sukuyae are quite smart, and can speak, but only while inhabiting a creature's skin.

While inside a creature's skin, it has as many hands as that creature did, and deals normal damage with unarmed attacks.

When it abandons the skin to fly around as a fireball, however, it has one "hand", its mouth, and deals 1d6+2 Heat damage with unarmed attacks (Magic Power included, its fireball form Unarmed attacks are Magic-Damage rather than Muscle-Damage). If it successfully kills a creature using its fireball form unarmed attack, it consumes that creature's flesh and inhabits its skin or husk.

In fireball form, it also has a Magic-Damage Muscle-Area Fiery Breath weapon, which deals 1d6+1 Heat damage (Magic Power included), targeting all creatures and unattended objects in a 90 degree, 5 meter cone and lighting wounded targets on fire.

While wearing a creature's skin or husk, it seems very much like that creature, as a Decent disguise. Aside from entering a creature's skin by attacking it, it can also return to a skin it has previously left, if that skin has not been destroyed or salted. It dies if it goes without inhabiting a creature's skin for at least 10 hours during a 2 day period. Leaving a skin takes a Standard AND Move action.

The sukuya is immune to Heat damage.

Advancement

Counting Mastery (5 points): The Sukuya can instantly count any quantity it can see clearly merely by looking at it. It gains an Advanced Specialty.

Instant Familiarity (10 points): When the Sukuya touches a creature while in a skin, that creature must make a Will Save or become convinced that the Sukuya really is the creature whose skin it is wearing, no matter how badly the Sukuya fails to act like the skinned creature. This effect only ends if the Sukuya leaves the skin. No creature can be forced to make this save more than once for every skin. The Sukuya gains two Advanced Specialties and becomes [ Pink ].
