Parasitic Takeover: The brain-eating goo seeps into a person's head typically while they sleep and typically through their ears, nose, or mouth. The full takeover takes about 24-72 hours. Over time, the host loses more of their free will as the brain of the goo takes the place and their eyes turn a dark greenish-gray. Post Parasitic Takeover, the brain-eating goo controls the host's every action and typically focuses on getting more hosts for consumption to keep their host alive.
If trying to infect a PC, have them make a DC 12 Wisdom check every hour after infection. With a success, the player notices that something feels off and they or someone else can make a Medicine check DC 15 to remove it. [Typically not used to infect PCs]
Bleeding Out Of The Host: After a full parasitic takeover takes place, the host's blood is replaced by a thick greenish-gray sludge. Once the skin is damaged, this sludge begins flowing from the host's mouth and eyes. Then tentacles come out of any wound holes, if there are none, they burst from the mouth. This is done at "optimal times" for an attempt at feeding.
Human Meat Shield: Damage done to the host and the host only does not affect the Brain-Eating Goo's HP, only damage done to the head of the host (that would somehow hit the brain) or damage done to tentacles drop the HP. Damage done to the "brain" of the host do double damage.
Tentacle Slap. Melee Weapon Attack: +4 to hit, reach 10 ft., one target. (1d8 + 2) damage
Blinding Spray. Ranged Weapon Attack: +2 to hit, range 20 ft., Up to 3 adjacent targets. (1d4 damage each.) As goo is flung at target(s). If the hit is successful, the target(s) is/are blinded for their next turn
