Seen it, thanks to free avail from BJ 
haven't thoroughly read it, but skimmed most of the monster stats.
I have a question on attached condition though;
shouldn't it have some sort of penalty when targeting a creature attached to another? i mean they do occupy the same square, and i imagine the tyanak attaching itself to get some sort of cover, or even use it to stealth (provided the 'host' doesn't notice the attached creature)

The attached condition is not necessarily a hiding mechanic - it's more of a variant grapple for tiny creatures. That being said, different tiny creatures with attachment have other effects that trigger off the condition. In the case of the tiyanak, I think it's a penalty to certain rolls (to represent the controller aspect). The tiktik is the one with a defense mechanism - although it's different from what you'd expect. 
By the way, thanks for the question. It keeps the topic fresh and hot.

well, i'm thought that the attached condition should give more benefits to the attached creature than just being a special grab.
btw, does the 'host' and attached creature grant CA to others, like grappled creatures do?

Ah. While I compare the attached condition to grapple, they are entirely different mechanics. ie, if it's not in the game rules presented with the attached condition, then it's not part of the rules for it.

Oh, remember Neuroglyph Games? He just posted a review of Asuang: Shapechanging Horrors. Check it out. |
That is one review worthy of reading! I really like how it focused on the product's positive points and role playing opportunities.
It will be much better as you go along ^^
