Second Soul

Second soul: [Minor] by Iczer

'This guy?..he's my little buddy'

The character can create a semisentient energy creature, that wraps itself around the character acting as a set of eyes and ears. the creature is merely an extension of the characters will. The 'second soul' resembles a glowing cloud, snake or swarm of critters which may extend up to 10 feet from the character +2 feet per level and provides the following benefits

• The energy form has 30 SDC, but is only barely solid. itcan only be harmed by psychic, magic or energy attacks (energy attacks do 1/4 damage)
• The energy form attempts to disrupt incoming attacks adding +2 to save vs magic and psionics. it also absorbs energy damage, reducing it by 1/3rd
• The energy form can see the invisible, and keeps a constant lookout for the character, preventing him from suprise attacks. if necessary, the second soul has a perception of +4
• The energy form provides the same amount of light as a living room flourescent light. in addition, the second soul can light small fires, and make one additional attack per melee. the second soul inflicts 1D4+1 damage. it has a bonus of +2 to strike, parry and dodge plus a bonus equal to the characters MA if read as a PP score. likewise it inflicts bonus extra damage as if the character's ME score was it's PS. this damage is energy based. as a limb the second soul can lift as many pounds as the character's ME
