Low-Light Vision

The monster can see in dim light as though it were bright light, so it ignores the Concealed condition due to dim light.

Deluge Vision

A ssumzili ignores sensory difficulties caused by rain.

Precipitation Camouflage

A ssumzili can Hide and Sneak in rainfall, even if it doesn't have cover.

Constant Spells

A constant spell affects the monster without the monster needing to cast it, and its duration is unlimited. If a constant spell gets counteracted, the monster can reactivate it by spending the normal spellcasting actions the spell requires.

Standing Water (aura, primal, transmutation)

10 feet Aura


When it rains, the ground near a ssumzili becomes slick. When raining, all terrain within 10 feet of a ssumzili is slippery, with the effects of Grease (DC 29). Ssumzilis are immune to this effect.

Puddle Stride

A ssumzili ignores difficult terrain caused by rain, such as puddles or wet rocks.

Sneak Attack

A ssumzili deals an additional 2d6 precision damage precision damage to flat-footed creatures.


When the monster Strikes a creature that has the Flat-Footed condition with an agile or finesse melee weapon, an agile or finesse unarmed attack, or a ranged weapon attack, it also deals the listed precision damage. For a ranged attack with a thrown weapon, that weapon must also be an agile or finesse weapon.

Soaking Strike Two Actions

The ssumzili makes a melee Strike. If the Strike damages the target, the target must also attempt a DC 32 fortitude save.


Critical Success The creature is unaffected.

Success The creature becomes soaked, causing them to treat the environmental temperature as one step colder (mild to severe, severe to extreme, and so on) until they dry off.

Critical Failure As failure but the fatigue lasts until the target gets a full night's rest.

Ssumzilis are lanky, murderous fey who delight in the thrill of the hunt. They are particularly skilled/adept at stalking their prey in the rain and most commonly reside in rainforests and coastal regions, where frequent rain provides ample opportunity to hunt. Camouflaged by their cloud-gray skin, ssumzilis often compete in tests of stealth when hunting in groups, taking particular delight in approaching their quarry as closely as possible without being observed.
