At-will, std, ranged, concentration, 2 energy; you summon a swarm of rats which occupy 1 square within range. The swarm remains while you concentrate and obeys your commands (swift action to give a command verbally).
- The swarm's Hit Points are equal to a heavy damage roll.
- The swarm is immune to non-area damage, but any creature with feet can spend a standard action to stomp, causing their unarmed damage to the swarm.
- The swarm can move up to your speed on your turn as part of your movement.
- The swarm has one hostile ability: on your turn, it can occupy the same square as a creature. The creature suffers medium piercing damage and must pass a Con save or be nauseated (Con ends).
- The rats are somewhat intelligent and can perform simple tasks a rat swarm could reasonably be expected to do (e.g., retrieve small objects, open simple latches, etc).
