Has anyone made up any stats for a non-epic neh-thalggu? Or even better, proper Pathfinder stats? Someone used to have some online, but the page has been taken down, so at this point I only have the original D&D stats available to me.
Dungeon #144, page 63-64. Non-epic Neh-thalggu. I can type up the stat block later if need be.
That would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Extract Brain (Ex): Can remove the brain of a helpless opponent as a full-round action, provoking an AoO and immediately slaying the target at the end of the round. This power is useless against constructs, elementals, oozes, plants and undead; and is not instantly fatal to multi-headed creatures such as ettins or hydrae. The neh-thalggu can swallow an extracted brain as a free action, storing it in one of its 12 brain sacs.
Metamagic (Su): Can absorb a captured brain to alter a spell being cast in one of three ways:
* cast without verbal or somatic components
* cast a spell with a range of Touch as a ray (effectively a 30' ranged touch attack)
* cast a spell that targets a single creature and deliver it to the target as part of a bite attack, losing the spell if the bite misses.
Regardless of which option is chosen, the absorption of the brain also costs the brain collector knowledge of one of its spells and it must collect another brain to regain knowledge of the spell.
Spells: Can cast spells as a 6th level sorcerer and can store additional spells kown in its collected brains. If it absorbs a spell, it loses kn owledge of one of its known spells. When it collects a new brain, it may select a new spell to replace the one lost. A neh-thalggu may have any number of spells of a particular level, though it cannot exceed the number of spells known at a lower spell level. The stat block above assumes a collector with a full complement of 12 brains.
Cool! Thanks!
The cleric and the sorcerer will regret ignoring the warnings against going out to that island of "queer fisher folk". Mwahahaha!
