1. Talons

Avian Cycle

BTS: 25% (St)

ULT: 8 hours

Materials: a Bird's talon

Actions: make gouging motion with Materials

Effect of Throw:

1 to 10    No Effect

11 to 30    Gouge Die = d((T-10)/2 FRU

³ 31    Gouge Die = d(T+10)/4 FRU

For Dice which do not actually exist, roll a die with more sides and reroll any results greater than Gouge Die.

Duration:    t min    -t(t-1)/2

Range:    d ft    -(4+d)    If cast on self, there is no Range minus. If cast on others, Range is at least 0 ft, so there will be a Range minus of at least -4.

Notes:

  1. Cast on a single Target Being, who must be a Bird Cultist or Bird.  Target must be in corporeal form and have limbs on which the talons may appear.
  2. Gives Target talons like a Bird of Prey for Duration, if he does not already have them.
  3. Talons may be used to make Gouge Unarmed Attacks doing Damage of one Gouge Die if they hit.
  4. May be Cast on Beings that already have Claw or Gouge Attacks (e.g. Birds) to increase their Damage.  Claw / Gouge Dice are not cumulative - only the highest counts.
  5. Attacks using Talons do not count as magical for the purposes of overcoming Invulnerability Effects.  Non-standard Spells giving pluses to A and which do have this property may be available to particularly ferocious Cultists.
