The creature, once imprinted with the genetic makeup of its host, is able to seamlessly replicate the look, feel, and functionality of a regular human arm, with the added ability of sprouting a jagged blade from the palm. The creature will subconsciously drive its host to consume more than the average person in order to glean some sustenance and sustain itself.
The creature requires a genetic imprint of the original limb that it is replacing, and must entirely consume the limb that it replaces. If the original limb is regained, it ceases to function, reverting to an amorphous wad of fleshy substance.
If the artifact this gift is attached to has the Sultende Klo gift as well, it may be used as the grindhouse weapon in place of a regular knife.
Disfiguring - Host
You are the host to an exceptionally ravenous creature that drives you to consume more than the average person. Every 24 hours, you must consume at least 4 pounds of meat in addition to your body's regular needs.
You gain the following benefits as long as you allow the creature to consume and replace your arm and you are wearing this Artifact.
You gain an additional limb that functions as a standard human arm and hand.
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 extra appendage can be used to attack in exactly the same manner as a knife.
You may turn this Effect on and off at will during its duration.
Anyone who touches this Artifact will notice it warping their body and may drop it. If they choose to hold or use it, they immediately receive the following Battle Scar: Host. If they lose possession of this Artifact, the Battle Scar heals over the course of the next day.
Your Extra Appendage is incapable of fine object manipulation.
A 355ml bottle made of what appears to be heavy glass, and filled with a viscous liquid that churns in ribbons of black, dark red, pale yellow, and a sickly green. When it is drunk, it goes down smoothly, but there are no words to describe how unpleasant the aftertaste is. Immediately after being downed, the mouth, throat, sinuses, and stomach burn. The body rejects any toxic or diseasing contaminations and expels them through any available avenue, along with the ingested elixir, as the mind trembles under the experience.
Roughly a third of the bottle's contents must be consumed to take effect, and it seems to reconstitute the volume of a single use per day.

Anyone who witnesses you during this Effect's activation will almost certainly be disturbed to see the target's body visibly shakes with obviously excruciating agony as blood, phlegm, and black and yellow bile are expelled from their pores, mouth, and sinuses.
