Assimilate
5th Edition
Make a melee psionic attack against a living creature. On a hit, you attempt to assimilate the creature into your form and the creature takes 20d8 Necrotic damage. Any creature reduced to 0 Hit Points or less by this power is killed, leaving behind only a trace of fine dust and fully assimilated into your form. An assimilated creature's equipment is unaffected. If the creature has at least 1 hit point left after this power, they are only partially assimilated. An assimilated creature can only be resurrected by True Resurrection, Wish, or Reality Revision.
A creature that is partially assimilated into your form grants you a number of temporary hit points equal to half the damage you dealt for 1 hour.
A creature that is completely assimilated grants you a number of temporary hit points equal to the damage dealt. In addition, choose one ability score. You gain the target's chosen ability score for 1 hour if it is higher than your own. You gain a +10 bonus to Charisma (Deception) Checks made to appear as that creature for 1 hour.
