Special Abilities

Dreamsharing (Su) A group of dreamsippers can share their stolen dreams with each other as long as they remain within 30 feet of each other. A dreamsipper familiar can share dreams of its master, weaving the threads stolen from dreams of others into the shared experience.

Sip Dreams (Su) A dreamsipper tentacles can deliver a mild mental shock that cause sense of overwhelming tiredness. When nonlethal damage exceeds the target's hit points after a dreamsipper's tentacle attack, the victim falls unconscious and asleep for 2d6 hours while dreaming intensely. Creatures that are incapable of dreaming are asleep for 1d4 hours. Victim can't be woken up until their nonlethal damage drop below their hit point value.

Trail Dreams (Su) A dreamsipper is vaguely aware of creatures dreaming nearby within approximately 1 mile, though it requires time and effort to actually find them. It can recognize a dreaming creature on sight and get a vague idea of complexity of its dreams discerning between sapient creatures, non-sapient ones, and entities that don't dream, but only while they are asleep.

Dreamsippers are night creatures that feed on sleeping creatures, sipping a bit of dream here and there, and then proceeding to return to their lairs where they digest them, weaving new dreams out of stolen threads while in a deep trance.

Dreamsippers find dreams of sapient beings a much richer and attractive than their usual fare of non-sapient dreams.

A dreamsipper can be taken for a familiar by a 7th level caster capable of dreaming with Improved Familiar feat.
