Sharkskin

Sharkskin [Minor] by Iczer

'I...Just don't like being touched that's all'

The character's skin has the ability to become hazardous at will, even by reflex. Tiny folds of the character's skin, reinforced by hardened keratin lie flat until he wishes them to do otherwise. The character enjoys the following bonuses:

• AR 11 In addition, the rough nature of the character's skin allows him to handle sharp objects without harm
• +25 SDC
• Anyone grabbing the character will see themselves get lacerated for their trouble. Any grab, grapple or unwanted touch will inflict 2D4 damage (+1 per level). Likewise, every action spent grappling inflicts the same damage (in addition to any other actions). Anyone taking lacerating damage to hands or feet need to make a saving throw Vs Pain (14+ PE bonuses apply) or abort the action. The character can use this to 'brush up' on a target inflicting the above damage (No PS bonus) creatures with a natural AR of 14+ or any artificial armour with an AR of 12+ are sufficiently padded against this aspect of the power.
• +10% to climb and an effective +4 to PS and PP when attempting to keep hold of a target while grappling.
