Requirements The bdellavritra is possessing a host using Mind Worm


Effect If the bdellavritra's next action is to Cast a Spell, they reduce the number of actions to cast it by 1 (minimum 1 action).

If the host dies, the bdellavritra must attempt a Fortitude save as normal but is only Stunned 2 on a failure (or Stunned 4 on a critical failure).
