FeaturesDamage Transfer. While attached to a creature, the cloaker takes only half the damage dealt to it (rounded down), and that creature takes the other half. ActionsMultiattack. The cloaker makes two attacks: one with its bite and one with its tail. Whenever any creature targets the cloaker with an attack or a harmful spell while a duplicate remains, that creature rolls randomly to determine whether it targets the cloaker or one of the duplicates. A creature is unaffected by this magical effect if it can’t see or if it relies on senses other than sight. A duplicate has the cloaker’s AC and uses its saving throws. If an attack hits a duplicate, or if a duplicate fails a saving throw against an effect that deals damage, the duplicate disappears. |
Unofficial Description: Cloakers are aberrant creatures who's bodies are relatively flat. They often fly to and cling to a cave mouth or underground ceiling only to drop on a victim passing beneath.
[SRD3 OGL] [5] When resting or lying in wait, these creatures are almost impossible to distinguish from common black cloaks (the cloaker’s ivory claws look very much like bone clasps). Only when it unfurls does the horrific nature of the creature become apparent.
A cloaker has a wingspan of about 8 feet. It weighs about 100 pounds.
