Putrid form [Major] by Iczer

'To fight monsters, I must now become one'

The character can putrefy his flesh to gain significant power but increased fragility.

1) Weakened flesh: The character's flesh and body becomes toxic and enfeebled. he loses half his SDC and half his PS. His corpse-like form has a PB of 2D4 and smells like freshly putrefying meat. His blood and tongue turns black, as do his gums adding to his horrific countenance. Bullets and piercing attacks inflict half damage and critical hit do no extra damage. he does not heal while in his putrid form

2) Heightened power: In return for physical putrescence, he gains substantial superpowered might. All other super abilities work as if he were three levels higher than normal. In addition all his powers that have a saving throw component, will see that saving throw increase by 2, and he receives 2 extra attacks per melee, exclusively for the use of superpowers (no physical attacks or actions). While putrefied, he is immune to toxins and poisons (though he still needs to eat and breathe) and enjoys a +6 to his PE score.

3) Other notes: Changing forms takes 1D4 melee rounds. When he transforms from putrid flesh to normal flesh, his current SDC doubles. His PB and PS remain reduced after transformation, but recover at a rate of one per melee round.
