Form of the Beast
Cost: 15 Character Points
Prerequisite: Rage
When you enter your rage, you can transform, revealing the bestial power within you. Until the rage ends, you manifest a natural weapon. You proficiency with this weapon matches your profiency in rage attacks.
You choose the weapon’s form each time you rage:
Bite. Your mouth transforms into a bestial muzzle or great mandibles (your choice). It deals 1dM piercing damage on a hit. Once on each of your turns when you damage a creature with this bite, you regain 1dR stamina if you have less than half your stamina.
Claws. Each of your hands transforms into a claw, which you can use as a weapon if it’s empty. It deals 1dM slashing damage on a hit, and has the finesse and light properties. You can strike using the dual wield action.
Tail. You grow a lashing, spiny tail, which deals 1dM piercing damage on a hit and has the reach property. Each round, the first time that a creature that you can see within 10 feet of you hits you with a melee or ranged attack roll, you swipe your tail and add +1d to your defense, potentially causing the attack to miss you.
Bestial Soul

Climbing You gain a climbing speed equal to your walking speed, and you can climb difficult surfaces, including upside down on ceilings, without needing to make a skill check.

When you hit a creature with your natural weapons while you are raging, the beast within you can curse your target with rabid fury. If your attack roll exceeds the target’s wisdom defense, they suffer one of the following effects (your choice):
- The target must use one of its actions on its next turn to attack another creature of your choice that you can see.

You gain 1dR temporary stamina for each creature that accepts this feature. Until the rage ends, the chosen creatures can add 1dM to one damage roll each turn.
