Legacy Power: Wolf Out

Now this really is a hairy situation.

A 1 Gift Alternate Form Power created by shady.

Description

The Werewolf unleashes the beast within, quickly transforming into an imposing hybrid of human and wolf with a series of bone-popping snaps. Their head is replaced wholesale with that of a wolf, robbing them of speech but bestowing a maw of deadly fangs. Grey fur sprouts from a great deal of their body, and tight-fitting clothing is often ripped and torn in the transformation. While transformed, they lose a great deal of self-control, and they cannot return to human form for some time.

If The Werewolf is struck my moonlight, they are compelled to transform.

System

Exert your Mind and spend an Action transforming. You must spend 30 minutes as a werewolf.

While in your werewolf form you gain +1 Brawn. You cannot speak as a werewolf, only growl, bark, and snarl. You do not suffer dice penalties from Body damage while transformed. Brawl attacks you make with your teeth or claws cannot be soaked by Brawn and deal +1 Damage. While transformed, you automatically fail any Mind roll to resist an impulse and suffer -3 dice on all other Mind rolls.

When you are struck by moonlight, you must make a Mind roll, Difficulty 7. If you fail, you must activate this Power.

You have access to all of your Powers as a werewolf.


Enhancements

  • Combat-Ready (You do not suffer any Stress while in your alternate form.)
  • Anatomical Weapon (Your alternate form is its own deadly weapon. Unarmed attacks made in your alternate form deal +3 Weapon Damage (instead of the typical -1).)
  • Boosted Attribute (You gain +1 to an Attribute in your Alternate Form. You cannot boost an Attribute more than once with this Enhancement.)
    • Attribute - Brawn

Drawbacks

  • Maddening (Possession of this Gift causes a Trauma that cannot be cured by any means. The chosen Trauma must be likely to come up on a Contract.)
    • Trauma - You are compelled to transform each time you are struck by moonlight.
  • Mute (You cannot speak any coherent verbal language and must resort to other means of communication.)
  • Lose Yourself (While transformed, you automatically fail any Mind roll to resist an impulse and suffer -3 dice on all other Mind rolls.)
