[QUOTE="Cleon, post: 8707040, member: 57383"] No, more about how it uses & retains spells. I was thinking: [b]Spellcasting:[/b] If the gu'en-deeko eats one or more brains with the Spellcasting power, it uses the highest spellcasting level, spell save DC, to hit with spell attacks and number of spell slots among the brains it has eaten. A gu'en-deeko with Spellcasting cannot change the spells it has prepared like a cleric or wizard, but can only cast the spells the humanoid spellcasters whose brains it ate had prepared at the moment of their deaths. If a gu'en-deeko loses access to a brain's Spellcasting power, all prepared spells from that brain become one-use, fading from the gu'en-deeko's prepared spells list as soon as it casts them. If losing a brain's Spellcasting power causes a gu'en-deeko's number of spell slots to fall, the gu'en-deeko does not lose the spell slots immediately, but its surplus spell slots become one-use and are lost once they're used to cast a spell. If this causes the gu'en-deeko to lose all ability to cast spells of a given level, it also loses all prepared spells of that level. [/QUOTE]
