Telepathy 30 feet

The noppera-bo has no sense of vision, but their hearing is precise. They don&#x27;t breathe and are immune to effects that require breathing. They gain sustenance by absorbing fluids through their skin—traditionally by immersing their hands or faceless head into the fluid to &quot;drink&quot; through osmosis; they can also benefit from consumables, such as potions or elixirs, in this way.

No Face

As long as the noppera-bo is <a href="/condition/deafened">Deafened</a>, they&#x27;re <a href="/condition/slowed">Slowed 1</a>.

Sensitive Hearing

A noppera-bo impersonator carries a +1 striking weapon that looks identical to the favored weapon of the character being impersonated. If the PC favors unarmed Strikes, it appears as handwraps. If the impersonated character favors a ranged weapon, then the noppera-bo impersonator has no melee weapon and instead uses the ranged false weapon Strike above; otherwise, the noppera-bo impersonator has no ranged weapon. If the character favors no weapon, then the noppera-bo wields a club as their false weapon. This false weapon is only partially real and inflicts only mental damage when it hits; it gains none of the original weapon&#x27;s traits or magical enhancements. If a noppera-bo impersonator&#x27;s false weapon is broken, disarmed, or set down, it fades away. The noppera-bo impersonator can craft a replacement false weapon by spending 10 minutes to recreate one.
