Malevolent Possession ◆◆ (incapacitation, mental, occult, possession) The dybbuk attempts to possess an adjacent corporeal creature. This has the same effect as the Possession spell (DC 34 Will) with an unlimited duration, except since the dybbuk doesn't have a physical body, they aren't Unconscious, and aren't Paralyzed when the effect ends, though they take 5d6 spirit damage if the body is knocked unconscious or killed.

If the dybbuk took control of the target with Malevolent Possession, when the dybbuk departs, the target has only incoherent memories of the interval it was possessed.
