One eye acts as the cause fear spell, and the other produces a sleep effect. Each effect is negated with a DC 11 will save. The save DCs are charisma-based. Cause Fear: This ray works like the spell. It has a range of 30 feet. Sleep: This ray works like the spell, except that is affects one creature with up to 4 hit dice. It has a range of 130 feet. ### Suffocate (Ex) If a lurking strangler hits a helpless foe with its lash attack, it wraps itself around the victim's throat and begins to choke it. In the first round the victim falls unconscious (0 hit points). The following round, she drops to -1 hit points and is dying. In the third round, she suffocates and dies.
