-Telepathic Link (Su) An Animated Bag of Devouring cannot speak, but the process of creating one links it telepathically with its creator out to a distance of 1,500 feet.

-Magic Mouth : An Animated Bag of Devouring is treated as a large creature for the purpose of their swallow whole and bite abilities. A swallowed creature cannot cut itself free nor does it take damage as it would normally. Instead if the creature is not freed in 1d6 rounds it succombs to the normal affects of a Animated Bag of Devouring. A Bag of Devouring cannot make a bite attacks without giving a swallowed creature an opprotunity to escape by making a grapple check.

Although it seems to be the work of a mad man, the Animated Bag of Devouring was most likely left to a clever one. The Animated Bag of Devouring works great as a spy and a guardian of treasure and if given something worth its time; the bag is often easy enough to work with. Although fairly fragile and slow in combat; a thrown Animated Bag of Devouring is as good as the gnashing jaws of any other charging beast, as many adventurers will contest. All of these boons; as well as the ones from any normal Bag of Devouring leaves it a fond pick as the familiar of some wizards.


Due to speed, lack of perception and so on, I'd peg this at CR 1/2, unless in teamwork with someone who can hide it well, allowing it to attack on the first turn (then CR 1 might be appropriate)

ya i see your point i cropped its speed because i thought a bag that could swallow and kill most lvl2-3 pc kinda harsh it dose have the normal perception of a construct of its hd i think


A small construct receives +10 hp for it's size.
