Damage Transfer

Topologically Interesting
Your flexible nature makes you a difficult target to hit at range, but makes it especially hard for you to perform feats of strength, to swim, and to escape the grip of an adversary. However, it also gives you the ability to hang on tenaciously when you want to.
- You have resistance to ranged attacks.
- You have advantage on Strength (Athletics) checks to initiate or maintain grapples, but disadvantage on all other Strength (Athletics) checks.
- You may attempt to initiate a grapple as a bonus action.
- You also gain access to a Smother attack, which on a hit grapples a Medium or smaller target within 5 ft. of you. Until this grapple ends, the target is restrained, blinded, at risk of suffocation, and takes bludgeoning damage on its turn equal to 1d6 plus your Strength modifier.
Languages
You can read and write Common and another language known by your creator, but you cannot speak except through spending an action doing charades.
