Embrace of the Kraken
By Steven Markley (smarkley@ocean.otr.usm.edu) for Rokea Revisited
Level Three Rokea Gift
Description
By spending a Willpower Point and rolling Dexterity + Primal-Urge vs a difficulty of 8, the Rokea's arms or pectoral fins are replaced by eight ten-foot long tentacles. They can club opponents (diff 5, Str non-Agg), but their main use is to constrict and hold opponents. The difficulty to Grapple is reduced by two, and the Rokea adds five to his Strength for purposes of maintaining his hold. Grappled prey take the Rokea's unmodified Strength in damage each turn; this damage can be soaked. Victims can suffocate if they cannot free themselves, which is the fate of most who fall victim to this power. The tentacles granted by this Gift remain as long as the Rokea desires.
