Mindshock (Su) Whenever a grioth damages a creature with a psychic weapon, a surge of violent psychic energy pulses into the victim’s body, causing an additional 1d4 points of nonlethal damage. On a confirmed critical hit, this additional nonlethal damage does not increase, but the creature struck must succeed at a DC 13 Will save or become confused for 1d2 rounds. This is a mind-affecting effect. The save DC is Charisma-based and includes a +2 racial bonus.

Poison (Ex) Bite—injury; save Fort DC 12; frequency 1/round for 6 rounds; effect shaken for 1 round; cure 1 save.

Psychic Weapons (Ex) A grioth’s weapons are made from a strange metal that causes slashing and piercing weapons to deal 1 additional point of damage and allow the grioth to use its mindshock ability.
