Legacy Power: Radioarachnid

“Hey, can you reach around and unzip my bag for me, please?”

A 1 Gift Extra Appendage Power used by Martin Oswald, created by lumiq.

Description

Martin Oswald begins his true metamorphosis; the solar flares are worsening in the months between his departures, back in his own world. One day he wakes to a searing, pulsing pain- from his spine, the first of what he can only assume is many spindly spider legs pushes and pierces at his skin until his organic, sustainable bamboo sheets are soaked with blood.

Martin’s way of living with this for the time being is to pack the thing away into a backpack he’s torn a hole into, constantly worn. The leg also bears two wicked sharp claws at it’s end.

System

Your Extra Appendage functions either as a replacement body part or a standard humanoid arm and hand. Any Battle Scars on your Extra Appendage, including its complete loss, can be healed over one Downtime.

If your Extra Appendage acts as an additional limb instead of a replacement, you do not need to re-roll to maintain a successful grapple. Instead, your previous Outcome can be reused each Round until the grapple is broken.

This Power is passive and always in effect.


Enhancements

  • Pseudopod (Your appendage is capable of bending and squishing in normally-impossible ways. It may fit through any gap that is not water-tight and retain its functionality.)
  • Savage Blows (Attacks with your appendage are particularly vicious. Unarmed attacks with it get +2 Damage (instead of the typical -1).)

Drawbacks

  • Stumpy (Your Extra Appendage is incapable of fine object manipulation.)
  • Misshapen (You cannot be mistaken for a normal human. You cannot always use standard human clothes, equipment, vehicles, and facilities, and when you can, you suffer an increased Difficulty.)
