Kiss. The swarm kisses one incapacitated humanoid within 5 feet of it. The target must succeed on a
DC 12 Charisma saving throw or become cursed. The cursed target loses 1 point of Charisma after
each hour, as its head takes on fiendish aspects. The curse doesn't advance while the target is in
sunlight or the area of a daylight spell; don't count that time. When the cursed target's Charisma
becomes 2, it dies, and its head tears from its body and becomes a new vargouille. Casting remove
curse, greater restoration, or a similar spell on the target before the transformation is complete can
end the curse. Doing so undoes the changes made to the target by the curse.
Stunning Shriek. The swarm shrieks. Each humanoid and beast within 30 feet of the swarm and able to
hear it must succeed on a DC 12 Wisdom saving throw or be frightened until the end of the swarm's
next turn. While frightened in this way, a target is stunned. If a target's saving throw is successful or
the effect ends for it, the target is immune to the Stunning Shriek of all vargouilles for 1 hour.
