Lesser Physical structure: [Minor] by Iczer

'Flame on? oh man that sounds so retarded'

The character can alter the outer levels of his skin into another element, gaining abillities similiar, though lesser than experienced in an altered physical structure.

1) Attributes of transformation: Altering the skin and aura provides the following benefits

  • +20 SDC. This SDC and the SDC provided by the altered form (If any) Regenerate sat a rate of 1 every 5 minutes, or 12 an hour.
  • +1d4 PE
  • Makes the character's strength extraordinary
  • Acts as natural AR 11

2) Specific elements: Each elemental type provides bonuses unique to itself. when this power is taken, the character chooses one of the following altered states he may use

  • Stone: Gains an extra +2 AR and 40 extra SDC. PS and PE rise by 2
  • Metal: Gains +3 AR and an extra 30 SDC. PS rises by 3
  • Smoke/mist/vapour: the character gains +6 to spd and +2 to PP as well as a ntural prowl of 65% +5% per level
  • Wood/plant: Gains +1 AR +4 PE and +20 SDC
  • Fire: Flaming outer skin means that anyone touching the character takes 2d4 damage. This 2d4 damage is added to hand to hand attacks, and of course the character is immune to fire
  • Water: the character's liquid skin allows the character to breathe underwater and swim at his normal Spd attribute. he also gains +3 PP
  • Ice: The character's icy body offers +20 SDC and renders the character immune to cold

(Note as a major power, the character can transform into any of the above substances, even within the same type of substance. When keeping track of variant SDC scores, always keep track of each type seperately. the first time on any given 24 hour period that the charcter uses an element skin he gains the reccommended bonus. EG If bruno turns his skin to steel he gains 20 SDC for the power, plus 30 for the metal form. If he were to take 25 damage, his metal forms would have 25 SDC remaining. Turning to copper would not help him in this instance (it's the same 'element') but turning to wood would cause him to lose those 25 remaining SDC, to be replaced with 40 from wood. if he were to turn into cold iron a round later he would lose his wood shape SDC, but regain the 25 his metal shapes have. The SDC of each skin 'type' regenerates seperately.)
