You possess an extra appendage.
Used by Akanae Thal, Created by Samurai_Yeehaw.
(This Effect may or may not be obviously Alien. )

The Empress bears an enormous tail tipped with dull natural blades, and a pair of insectoid graspers resembling mantis claws. The tail can excrete a sticky substance, though the Empress's thread cannot extend much further than 150ft before coming under strain.

The tail and the claws when used in tandem can be used to spin the Empress's signature Golden Thread, a form of gilded string that will take the weight of a mountain to break under strain (poetically, of course. The actual tensile strength of her threads have not yet been tested.)

Her tail is a misshapen and stumpy appendage. If you call it that to her face, however, she will attack you for it.


You gain the following benefits at all times.

You gain 3 additional limbs that function as standard human arms and hands.

Each additional limb you posses can take one Quick Action per Round without incurring a -2 dice penalty to your main Action. Each additional appendage you have gives you +1 dice to make and resist Grapples (up to a maximum bonus of +4 dice).

Any Battle Scars that affect or remove your additional limb will heal in a single week.

You may dedicate your extra Quick Action to contest any attempt to escape your Grapples. If you do so, you roll your full dice pool to contest and retain your Action to do anything that does not target the subject of your Grapple.

Your body provides you with the functionality of Golden Thread (150ft of rope). If used to attack, these "tools" use the same stats as a small knife.

All rolls utilizing your Extra Appendage are at a -2 dice Penalty.

Possession of this Power grants the following Trauma at all times: Vain - You are exceptionally weak to flattery.

One activation per person per hour.

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.

Your Extra Appendage is incapable of fine object manipulation.
