Vulnerable to Sunlight A fuath becomes Drained 1 (or increases its drained condition by 1) after every consecutive hour they're exposed to sunlight. Being submerged in more than a foot of water prevents the sunlight from harming the fuath.

Viscous Choke ◆◆ (primal, water) Frequency once per day

Effect The fuath surrounds the head of one air-breathing creature within 30 feet in a magical film of viscous water for 1 minute. The target must succeed at a DC 17 Reflex save or it begins to choke and must hold its breath to avoid drowning. The film can be temporarily wiped away with a total of 3 Interact actions by the choking creature or creatures adjacent to it, allowing a new Reflex save with a +2 circumstance bonus to end the effect. (These actions don't need to be consecutive or made by the same creature.)
