The *kasseg* are a species of mental parasite that feeds on the nervous energy of sentient creatures. Believed to be a deviant branch of the dreaded intellect devourers, the *kasseg* is different in that it soothes the mind and bolster its host’s higher mental processes, taking over certain mundane thinking tasks in exchange for feeding on his nervous energy for a time.

To “use” the *kasseg,* the user simply attaches it to his bare skin. The *kasseg* then excretes a mucus-like resin that acts as a means of communication between the victim and itself. Once “attached,” the *kasseg* lifespan drops to only a few hours.
