Alter Physical Structure: Blades (Major) by Stone Gargoyle

"You'll have weapons in a minute."

The superbeing can change into a being made up of segmented sections which can be removed from his body and given to others to use.

1. Torso Boy: The superbeing's torso becomes segmented from his arms and legs and remains otherwise unchanged. Torso SDC is 40 and it has Hit Points equaling those of the superbeing before he transforms. When his limbs are removed, the superbeing cannot do anything that would require arms and legs, obviously. All Hit Points and SDC replenishes at a rate of 4d6 per 10 minutes. Loss of all torso SDC reverts him to normal form. The torso is 2 and 1/2 feet long and can be swung as an axe or the character can axe someone with his face, for 2d6 damage plus PS damage bonus.

2. Segmented Limbs: The arms and legs are removable and usable as swords, having bladed bone edges, though the superbeing can use them himself when they are still attached. Each arm has an SDC of 20, each leg has an SDC of 30. When attached, the superbeing has Superhuman PS with the arms and the legs can move at three times normal speed. Using the limb to block or parry will do half damage to the limb.

Range: 3 feet, plus 2 inches per level
Duration: Hits instantly; a limb may remain separated for the superbeing's PE number of melee :rounds.
Damage: Swords do 3d6, plus 1d6 damage per level, plus PS damage Bonus. The superbeing may adjust the damage up or down by 1d6 and assigns the damage amount to the limb prior to detaching it.
Attacks/actions: Uses one melee attack/action to attack with a sword limb, one to remove it or reattach it.
Bonuses: The superbeing himself is +2 to strike with these weapons; those using them get no additional bonuses but can use their WP Sword bonuses when using the limbs.

3. Other Abilities and Bonuses:

The extra bone sections gives the superbeing a Natural AR of 12
Automatically gets Paired Weapons skill whether transformed or not
+2d4 PE
+20% to save vs. coma/death
