Bodily Metamorphose

Base DC: 17 
Save: Will*
Base Success: This allows the psion to transform their body by adjusting tissue composition and rearranging the cell structure. The effect can be held safely for the PL in minutes. For every number of minutes equal to the PL afterwards that the change is held in place inflicts 1 point of Sta damage. This can be used to produce one of the following metamorphose effects:

• Replicate the appearance of another humanoid of relatively similar mass (Disguise bonus is equal to the PL+Int Mod).
• Make the body more fluid so it can contort to pass through small spaces (½ normal body thickness) or wiggle free of a binding (add the PL+Sta Mod as a bonus to all escape and contortion action rolls).
• Change fingers or limbs into organic replications of tools or weapons (limb weapons do -1 die step penalty of damage of the weapon mimicked).
• Shift up to the PL in attribute points between Str, Agi, or Sta.
• This ability can be used on another person but the Base DC increases to 20. Doing this against their will allows them to make a Will save to resist it.

Effect

Focus Die	Bonus Effect
3 - 4	Body mass may be adjusted by +/- 25% and non-humanoid creatures can be mimicked. Also, the body can be contorted to fit through tiny spaces (¼ normal body thickness).
5 - 6	The effect duration is measured in turns instead of minutes. The psion gains the basic, non-magical traits of the shape mimicked (dark vision, winged flight, aquatic, etc).
7	Body mass may be adjusted by +/- 50% and inanimate objects can be mimicked. Weapons mimicked do full damage at +1 to hit. Up to two metamorphose effects can be maintained at a time, chosen at the initiation of this power.
8	The effect duration is measured in hours instead of turns. Also, body mass may be adjusted by +100% or -75%.
9+	The psion can choose to use up to 3 metamorphose effects at one time, chosen once per minute. Also, as a metamorphose effect the psion can regenerate 1hp per turn and 1 point of temporary physical attribute damage as long as they are not pushing the duration of this power.
