Suddenly you realize the horrific purpose of the hand. It is a predator, an evil sentient being that can only survive by consuming one form of nourishment—live human brain.

Diving and rolling, you avoid its initial attack, escaping with scratches to your scalp (lose 2 ENDURANCE points), but as it rises above you once more, you cannot help but fear that your life is soon to end. This creature is immune to Mindblast, but not Psi-surge in combat.
