Quantum attunement [Major?] by Iczer

'You have forgotten Deuce, that My brother and I share a bond that runs deeper than flesh'

The character can attune himself to a person or object and resonate with it so perfectly that they are like one and the same. Distance and space means nothing to this bond, allowing the character to share and trade qualities as he desires.

1) Damage dump: The character can regenerate HP and SDC by borrowing from the reserves of the attuned object. The Attuned object can 'donate' an ammount of HP or SDC equal to the character's existing SDC or HP, effectively doubling the character's ability to absorb damage. as the character transfers the damage across, the object loses it's own SDC. should it become destroyed in this manner, the attunement is broken. In a similiar fashion, the character can trade his own SDC and HP to the object, repairing it and strengthening it. SDC transfer occurs at a rate of 1d4 per melee round, but takes no actions to perform. borrowing SDC from innanimate objects changes the characters appearance to match, and only living things can loan HP to the character.

2) Sense: The character has a keen awareness of the object so attuned to. he can sense the condition and status of the attuned object at all times, and view the immeadiate surroundings. if the object attuned to is a living being, then the two may share thoughts over any distance. if the character is in the presence of an attuned object, then he may operate without his senses, instead sensing from the objects point of view (though the object may be equally blinded depending on circumstances) the character has a strong sense (85% accyracy) of distance and direction to the attuned object.

3) Benefits of attunement: The character has +2 to strike or parry with attuned weapons. If the character is attuned to a piece of equipment he gains +20% to skills that directly relate (being attuned to an oak tree allows +20% to climb it, being attuned to a chevy adds +20% to auto mechanics and pilot: auto).

4) Attuning: It takes2d4x10 minutes to attune to a new object. The character can attune himself to objects that mass within 500 Lbs per level. The character meditates near the object to perform such a transfer, and any old attunements are lost when a new one is formed.
