Nematocysts

Nematocysts: [Minor] by Iczer

'Stings doesn't it'

The character can protude tiny hooks and barbs from his skin, coated with a mild neurotoxin.

Anyone making unwanted contact with the character is subjected to hundreds of these barbs depending on the type of contact.

Bare handed blow: 1d4 damage plus save vs pain (10) or suffer as below.

Grab with open hand: 1d6 damage, plus a svae vs pain (11)

Any hold (includes body flip/throw): 2d4 damage plus save vs pain (13)

Body blow (such as a crash tackle, body block/tackle) 2d6 damage plus save vs pain (14)

Full contact wrestling: 3d6 damage plus save vs pain (16)

Character who fail to save vs pain, are struck with immense and distinct pain. Victims suffer -2 to all combat moves and -10% to skills. victims of massive exposure (saves of 14 or better) also lose an attack per melee. The duration of these effects are one round, plus one more round at levels 3,6,9,12 and 15.

Victims of this power are immune if they are wearing full body covering body armour, or at least heavy padding on their striking parts, or have a natural AR. those immune or resistant to poison resist normally. Characters with this power can add the bare handed blow effect to any normal hand strike.
