Explosive tumors [minor] by Iczer

'hey..Doc fantastic, if you are really a doctor, could you look at this for me?'

The character can form unsightly, bulbous tumors across his body at will. The character can form 3D4x10 lumps upon his body that lend him an AR of 10 and a bonus SDC of 30 (recovers at a rate of 1 per 15 minutes). The tumors also drop the character's PB to 1d4+2.
These tumors can be made to detach and explode like little cherry bombs.

Range: Special. They can be 'shot' up to 40 feet but with woeful accuracy. Alternatively, they can be ripped free and thrown as far as a person could toss a softball.
Damage: 1d4 as a hard lump of tumor, or 1d4+1 per level to 5 feet as a bomb. It does not have to explode.
Actions: It takes one action to launch a tumor. Ripping one free and throwing it also counts as a single action. Causing one or more tumors to remote detonate (within 120 feet +20 feet per level).
Bonuses to strike: -2 as a shot tumor (but can be done when hands are tied). Otherwise as any thrown object.
Other effects: The character can detonate a tumor upon impact when struck. This inflicts normal damage to the target and 1d4+1 to the character. This sort of spoilsport tactics may be considered unheroic.
