An odd creature, with the appearance akin to a miniature hexapodal squid, lands nearby. It tucks in its rubbery wings & begins to crawl forward with what seems to be aggressive intent. A large central eye looks around constantly.

These tiny parasites are the bane of all other life on the Flesh Plane, & are a particular nuisance to the plane-body itself. In large numbers, Parasights pose a serious threat to even the mightiest of native creatures. Their actions are directed by the adult Paraminds, who command hosts of these pests in cunning & destructive ways.
An individual Parasight is not terribly impressive, however. A tiny mindless being with a pale violet hue, it resembles a one-eyed octopus. It has no bones, except for a toothy maw on its underside, which it uses to drain vital fluids from its victims. It is aggressive, ravenous, & territorial, pursuing prey without patience or strategy.

A Parasight is about 18” across (including its tentacles) & weighs about 6 pounds. Being mindless, it speaks no language.

• Energy Drain (Su): any living creature pinned by a Parasight gains 1 negative level; the DC is 10 for the Fortitude save to remove a negative level; the save DC is Intelligence-based; for each such negative level bestowed, the Parasight gains 5 temporary hit points, which last 24 hours

• Improved Grab (Ex): to use this ability, a Parasight must hit with a Tentacle attack; it can then attempt to start a grapple (with a +12 bonus) as a free action without provoking an attack of opportunity; if it wins the grapple check, it establishes a hold & can Energy Drain

• Rapid Growth (Ex): a Parasight gains 1 Hit Die every 24 hours, until it reaches 6 Hit Die, at which point it becomes a Paramind (see above); this growth can only take place if permitted by the Parasight’s commanding Paramind, & cannot occur otherwise
