Devour Light

1 action; DC 14. The creature reaches out with a tendril of darkness, siphoning the illumination from a single source within 30 feet. The target loses the bright or dim light condition until the start of the creature’s next turn.

Murk Veil

2 actions; DC 16. The herd shrouds itself in a veil of gloom, granting each member concealment and imposing a –2 circumstance penalty to attacks against them until the end of the creature’s next turn.

Grazing Maw

2 actions melee strike; +9 to hit; 1d6+5 negative damage. On a critical hit, the target is also blinded for 1 round as the creature feeds on the last spark of light.

Tactics

The herd clusters around dimly lit alcoves, using Devour Light to plunge rooms into darkness before charging with Grazing Maw. When threatened, they activate Murk Veil to slip away, preferring to retreat into shadowed corridors rather than engage in prolonged combat.
