SPECIAL ABILITIES

A slinker can suck the air from a living victim’s lungs as a full-round action against any helpless opponent. The victim must succeed on a DC 11 Fortitude save. If the save fails, it takes 1d4 points of Constitution damage. At Con 0, the victim dies. The save DC is Constitution-based.

Fascination (Su)

Will DC 13.

ECOLOGY

Environment any land
Organization solitary
Treasure none

A slinker is referred to in legend as a witch cat, hell cat, or demonic cat that creeps into a family’s house and stealing the breath from their sleeping children. It appears as any other graymalkin but its eyes are sapphire blue and its ribcage is slightly oversized.

Slinkers are timid creatures and generally avoid encounters with other creatures.

A slinker generally avoids confrontation when possible, preferring to attack a sleeping or otherwise helpless opponent so it can use its breath stealing attack. If forced into combat, it seeks to escape as quickly as possible.
