Natural Weapon “A slingshot is fair. The shape of the rocks makes how they fly mundanely incalculable; if they are meant to hit their mark, they will hit.”

1
You possess supernatural skill with Slingshot.
Used by Emrick, Created by lumiq.
( )

Upon use, the shape of Emrick’s slingshot is multiplied in a muted silver light, shifting and stacking until it resembles a sort of geometric tree (Aušros medis) which streaks after the projectile until it can spread against the area it pelts. The Ausros Medis spreads even further on impact, pinning the target to the nearest surface; when broken out of, it is sucked into the wound like a sort of net and dissipates.

Emrick sees violence as nothing to look forward to, but respectably inevitable. As a crow, eating spiders, snails, frogs, and the young of other birds among other things was never given much of a thought, as it was a process of life. He appreciated being able to eat carrion when needed. That’s what got him sick as a human most recently… so a change in diet and a more indirect approach towards hunting is needed.

Emrick’s favorite weapon is a slingshot. They’re easy to use and gather ammo for, lightweight, and require patience and respect to make. It’s his dedication for the craft that imbued the process.
