Consumption. The Keepsnake is able to consume any object that it can get its jaw around without suffering any ill effects. It will be destroyed irrevocably.   Inflicted Amnesia. After consuming an object the owner must make a DC 14 Charisma save or forget whatever the object reminds them of.

These golden snakes don’t pose much of a physical danger to anyone. They only eat inanimate objects. Always seeking out people’s favorites things. They feed on the memory and affection people have for keepsakes. Small baubles will do, but they must carry with them an emotional value. In a set of pens, they will ignore those with intrinsic value and unerringly consume the one you always like to use that feels just right in your hand. Your keepsakes and trinkets that have the most meaning to you are the most appetizing, but objects without an owner hold no appeal.

Suggested Environments

These creatures invariably seek out the homes of hoarders. But once encountered they may latch onto any ready supply of knick knacks and prized possessions.
