Cacophony (auditory, aura)
20 feet. The monkeys' awful racket of screeches and howls drowns out other sounds. Any creature performing an auditory action in the area must yell over the din, requiring a successful DC 15 fortitude save or DC 15 performance check to project loudly enough; on a failure, the action is lost.
Ransack
The swarm rummages through the possessions of a single creature within its space, attempting a thievery check against the creature's Reflex DC.
On a success, the monkeys take one random item of negligible Bulk that the creature is wearing but not closely guarding, such as an object in a loosely carried pouch.
Swarming Bites
Each creature in the swarm's space takes 1d8 piercing damage (DC 18 reflex save).
A single monkey can cause mischief. A troop of monkeys, emboldened by their numbers, can cause utter chaos, attacking anyone and looting anything in sight before scattering away with whatever they can carry.
Monkeys vary greatly in size, color, and behavior. Some are distinguished by bright orange fur, others for black fur in sharp contrast with a white face. Some produce distinct noises, like howls that can be heard from a village away. Others vie for dominance within ever-changing social hierarchies. Their size and aptitude for climbing allow them to quickly escape threats; combined with being a little too clever for their own good, this allows them to get up to all sorts of mischief and usually escape to do it again.
Traits
Anything that doesn't list another rarity trait (uncommon, rare, or unique) automatically has the common trait. This rarity indicates that an ability, item, or spell is available to all players who meet the prerequisites for it. A creature of this rarity is generally known and can be summoned with the appropriate summon spell.
AnimalAn animal is a creature with a relatively low intelligence. It typically doesn't have an Intelligence attribute modifier over –4, can't speak languages, and can't be trained in Intelligence-based skills.
SwarmA swarm is a mass or cloud of creatures that functions as one monster. Its size entry gives the size of the entire mass, though for most swarms the individual creatures that make up that mass are Tiny. A swarm can occupy the same space as other creatures and must do so in order to use its damaging action. A swarm typically has weakness to effects that deal damage over an area (like area spells and splash weapons). Swarms are immune to the grabbed, prone, and restrained conditions.
