Morphic Blades (Major) by Stone Gargoyle

"I'm looking sharp tonight."

The character can sharpen his body's natural edges to form blades which can be projected outward into sword-like extensions, or used as skates and skis. Only minimal clothing can be worn with this power to use it effectively.

1. Natural Weaponry: The character can sharpen and extend his bones into sharp blades.

Range: The length of thin blades can be extended for one foot at level one, plus 2 inches per additional level, with axe edges extending from the bone at a distance of 3 inches at level one, plus one inch at levels 4, 8 and 12.
Duration: As long as the character needs them, being shaped and withdrawn at will.
Attacks: Uses 2 melee attacks/actions to reshape a limb, with each limb requiring shaping individually.
Damage: Varies with form.
Bonuses: +2 to strike at level one, with an additional +1 to strike with the blades at levels 3, 6, 9, 12 and 15,in addition to any bonus from PP. The character can parry melee weapons with the blades and is +3 to do so at level one, with an additional +1 to do so at levels 4, 8 and 12, in addition to any other bonuses from his PP attribute.
Forms: Only one form of weapon can be formed on a limb at any one time. Having different weapons equipped on the legs will cut Spd to half.
Double-Ended Blade: Extends for half the length from the elbow and wrist/knuckle or knee and heel. Does an additional +3d6 damage at level one, plus 1d6 at levels 4, 8 and 12.
Sword Blade: Extends in one direction for full length as thin blade or half length for wider blades. Thin blade does +1d6 damage at level one, plus an additional 1d6 at levels 3, 6, 9, 12 and 15. Wider blade does 2d4, plus 1d4 at levels 4, 8 and 12.
Axe Wedge Arm: Axe Edge does +2d6 damage at level one, plus 1d6 at levels 3, 6, 9, 12 and 15.

2. Skating Blades: The power can also create sharp blades on the feet to act as ice skates. This uses 2 melee attacks/actions and affects both feet simultaneously and cannot be used in conjunction with weapons on the legs. The effect is to allow the character to travel three times his normal speed on ice and to walk on slick surfaces without penalty. Striking with the skate blades will only add +1d6 to kick damage.

3. Other Abilities and Bonuses:

+1d4X10+10 SDC
Natural AR of 12
