Sportlebore Choke
A swarm sends parasitic insects crawling toward every throat within reach, leaving victims retching even when they manage to spit them out.
Like nefarious sportlebores, a species of insect that plague adventurers by hiding in their rations as counterfeit food, your swarm can crawl down throats. The sportlebores attempt to force their way into the mouth of each creature in your swarm's space. Each creature takes 4d4 piercing damage depending on its Fortitude save against the higher of your class DC or spell DC. The damage increases by 1d4 at 10th level and every 2 levels thereafter. Regardless of the result of its save, the creature is temporarily immune to sportlebore choke for 1 hour.
Critical Success The creature is unaffected.
Success The creature takes half damage and is sickened 1 as it spits out most of the offending sportlebores.
Failure The sportlebores crawl down the creature's throat. The creature takes full damage and is sickened 1.
Critical Failure As failure, but the creature takes double damage and is sickened 2.
