*Tagalong. Useful if you jump on someone, jump on sec as they're hunting you, or jump on a thrall. Stops working while you're in darkness, good for espionage.

**Always Acquire maint access. Always make sure you have a way out of, and into, maintenance. Pick a quiet spot to divulge, you'll have a 3x3 area around you of purple sparkles. Careful of capes, some emit light. Pick up duality and lightward sigil. Now you have a longer stun and less burning from light. Your go-to combo is to have your tentacles ready on harm intent, throw them, wait for the person to fly TO you (if you walk forward, you can be hit and stunned by them as if they were thrown AT you) and hit devour will to create an orb in your hand to click on them with. They're slept. Take their ID if they're sec/high ranking, and bolt. Sleeping people wake up in 30 seconds, each second reduced by each point of damage they take while sleeping. Disarm intent to hit lights so you don't throw yourself or the tentacle. Switch maints often. As you gain more lucidity, either pick up faster healing, faster psi regens or a defensive ability such as demented outburst. Your ascension requires UNIQUE sleeps, so don't be afraid to poke out of maints for a thrown tentacle. You WILL be found out, but darkspawn thrive on being mobile in light and their stuns. Throwing tentacles at Borgs WILL stun them and turn off their light, but you can't fight them consistently without a flash. While in maints, always have a second escape route and avoid fights where you're outnumbered. If in doubt, throw tentacles and disarm-attack people if they're hit and down, which will force them to retreat without a light. You are fast but are weak in light, meaning you need to be smart about picking your fights. Thermal vision is your best friend, and helps you poke out from maints for people staring gawk-eyed at the door.
