A vicious little predator that lurks underground, grabbing prey with spiny-padded hands and feet
A Choker is a vicious little predator lurking underground, grabbing whatever prey happens by. Its hands and feet have spiny pads that help it grip almost any surface. It weighs about 35 pounds, is brown or mottled gray in color, and vaguely humanoid in shape. A choker likes to perch high, often at intersections, archways, wells, or staircases, reaching down to attack. It generally prefers to attack lone prey.

Ability
Circumstance: Trigger: An enemy targets the choker with an attack;
The choker must move the creature into a space adjacent to itself. The creature must also be moved within the attacker's reach against a melee attack or into a space between itself and the attacker against a ranged attack. The choker can't use this ability to make the attacker target itself, even if it's grabbing or restraining the attacker.
Ability
Constrict
1d6+3 bludgeoning, DC 19
Ability
Hidden Movement
If the choker starts its turn hidden from or undetected by a creature, that creature is flat-footed against the choker's attacks until the end of the turn.
Ability
Strangling Fingers
Any creature hit by a choker's arm Strike is automatically grabbed, and the choker begins to strangle the target. The creature is suffocating and can't speak as long as it's strangled. This prevents it from casting spells with a verbal component or activating items with a command component.
Ability
Yank [Reaction]
Circumstance: Trigger: An enemy targets the choker with an attack;
(manipulate) Trigger: An enemy targets the choker with an attack; Effect The choker tries to pull a creature it has grabbed or restrained into the path of the attack.
