Harden up [minor] by Iczer

'Yeah, I've been told not to act so stiff before'

The character can turn Hit Points into SDC, either to heal or to bolster himself.
Each HP expended in this manner adds 5 temporary SDC or heals 10 SDC damage.
In addition, the character's hardening skin grants him an AR equal to the HP expended, to a maximum of 14. At the character's choice, there may be a physical alteration that accompanies this transformation. If so, drop the character's PB by 1D4+1 and raise his PS by a like amount.
The character receives +2 to PE and +2d6+2 HP. lost HP recover at twice the normal rate.
