Draining Touch (Su) A psychic abomination’s incorporeal touch wracks a victim’s body. In addition to the bludgeoning damage, a target must succeed at a DC 20 Fortitude saving throw or gain the fatigued condition; if the attack is a critical hit, the target is instead exhausted on a failed save. In addition, the psychic abomination regains an amount of Hit Points equal to its CR (11 for most psychic abominations) when its target fails this save.
