Each additional limb you posses can take one Quick Action per Round without incurring a -2 dice penalty to your main Action. Any Battle Scars that affect or remove your additional limb will heal in a single week.

Your appendage has a grip that is hard to shake. While grappling a target, when contesting their physical actions, you may roll your full dice pool, but it only counts as a Quick Action.

Your extra appendage is not connected to your nervous or circulatory systems, and you will not take damage if it is hit by an attack or destroyed.

Your Extra Appendage is incapable of fine object manipulation.

Maze summons a region of flowers, creatures, and undergrowth around the area and brings his world wherever he is, which looks like a cell-shaded forest. In this zone, a number of things occur:

+ A dense undergrowth of vines and shrubs seems to blanket the forest floor, while those in the sky are accosted by small dragons that would actively slow down anyone they see. Doing so at the behest of their father; Maze, who hatched them.

+ A number of bunnies with red scarves lurk around and hassle anyone who is foreign to the location with harmless traps in an effort to exhaust them. Selectively trained by Maze, they were taken in at the behest of his friend Shimizu Tsukihi.

+ Drifting on the wind is a toxic pollen that induces an almost drunken intoxication, similar to drinking a heavy amount of alcohol. Causing dizziness, mental sedation, and limited inhibitions. Coming from a flower he's grown himself.

  • Overwhelming: Anyone inside the zone cannot Exert their Mind, and Mind rolls made within the zone are at -2 dice.
  • Slippery: All movement distances are halved within the zone. Anyone who wishes to move further than their Free Movement within a Round must roll Dexterity + Athletics. If they fail, their movement is limited to their Free Movement and they fall down.
