When a creature the catonoctrix can see is  stunned  by Mind Ravage, the catonoctrix learns one secret the creature knows. \n'b'\n'b' ABOUT \n'b' A blackened, wyvern-like beast with leather purple wings soars the skies. The glowing eyes within its malformed, crystalline skull scour the area. \n'b' A catonoctrix is not a natural being. It exists due to mutations a drake or, more rarely, an immature dragon undergoes either by exposure to otherworldly realms and energies or from experimentation by depraved creatures, such as aboleths or mad wizards. As a result of its newfound intelligence and power, the catonoctrix is twisted by a desire for knowledge either in service of a master or for its own warped obsessions. It satiates this desire by any means necessary, even if it means tearing its victim\xe2\x80\x99s mind apart at the seams. \n'b'  Deceitful Diviners . A catonoctrix\xe2\x80\x99s transformation gives it great psychic power and some measure of precognition. It uses this power to manipulate others, often by providing creatures with readings that are accurate but twisted in a way that encourages the creature to aid the catonoctrix\xe2\x80\x99s overall schemes. These manipulative tactics lead some to refer to them as \xe2\x80\x9caugur beasts\xe2\x80\x9d and revere them as all-knowing benefactors. A catonoctrix uses this advantage to weave its way into civilizations, subtly controlling the masses to further its long-reaching agenda.'
