Touch of Balor / Touch of Eros [Major] by Iczer

'Of course I'm beautiful...You are what you eat'

The character has a vampiric style attack that stuns and withers victims while nourishing himself.
By touching a target (Can be performed in melee but not with an attack) the target must make a saving throw against this power (16+ PE assists) or take 2D6 damage (+2 per level). The character gains half as many HP as he drains, building his HP by up to 20, plus 20 per level, over and above his normal HP total.
These extra HP fade at a rate of 1 per melee round, but healed HP remains. at any point, the character may expend 20excess HP to become either an adonis (touch of eros) or a beast (touch of Balor) the character selects one when the power is chosen.
The beast gains the character 2 random mutations, plus the minor power: Feral.
The Adonis gains the character +10 PB +4 MA and the power of physical perfection.
At any rate, the transformation lasts for 15 minutes, plus 5 minutes per level, though may be discarded to recover 20 HP.
