Scimitar Claw Technique (Revised)
Cost: 3 motes, 1 willpower Duration: One scene Type: Simple Minimum Manipulation: 3 Minimum Essence: 3 Prerequisite Charms: Deadly Claw Blow
The Lunar shapeshifts himself into a killing machine, gaining powerful and deadly natural weapons that last for the remainder of the scene. The exact nature of these weapons differ, and the Lunar can change the nature of the weapon every time he utilizes this charm. Some lunars prefer naturalistic claws and a fanged maw, while other Lunars might shift their lower body into a life-crushing snake-body clinch enhancer or turn their hands into long piercing silver prowls that can slice clean through plate armor.
The number of points that the Lunar has to build his weapons on depends on how many different options he wishes to provide himself with. He can build a single powerful weapon for 17 points, or two weaker weapons for 13 points. He can reconfigure these weapons by reactivating this charm, though it generally requires a bit of practice or a stunt in order to master new weapon configurations. The Lunar spends points as follows: 1 point purchases one level of lethal damage, or 1.5 levels of bashing damage. That same point can also purchase +2 that the character can distribute to accuracy, defense or rate as he wishes. Lastly, that point can give the character a +2 modifier to his weapons speed. 3 points creates a piercing weapons, while 2 points creates a low-profile weapon or a weapon with minor non-combat abilities.
