As a parasite Hecklan is able to read his host's mind, search for information and also to boost his host body's abilities. He appears cheekingly charming to others. As a lure Hecklan can control people's minds to a certain degree as well as dealing psychic damage as a reaction when enemies fail their saves. Some say they never recovered from Hecklans’ psychedelic laughter.

Short Range Telepathy. (Race Trait)
You can establish a telepathic connection with one creature within 60 feet of you, that you can see, and which can understand at least one language.
