MET LARP SRD
(2013 BNS MET System)
Skin of the Adder
Serpentis • Level 3
With but a moment of concentration, you cause your skin to erupt into slick, protective scales, and your limbs and muscles lengthen. While this power is active, you have a hideous, snakelike appearance, but gain significant defense against Physical attacks.
Cost
1 Blood
Focus
Charisma
Your bonus to Dodge-based test pools increases to +3 (instead of the standard +2). Additionally you receive a +1 bonus to Brawl test pools when attempting to bite your opponent.
System
By spending 1 point of Blood and expending a standard action to invoke this power, you acquire defensive scales and become extremely flexible. While this power is active, you have a +2 bonus to Dodge-based defense test pools. Individuals using Skin of the Adder can also bite without first needing to Grapple their opponents.
Obviously, being seen by mortals while using Skin of the Adder is a breach of the Masquerade.
Skin of the Adder is a transformative power and cannot be combined with other transformative powers. You can end this transformation at any time by expending a simple action. Skin of the Adder’s transformation is close enough to human to allow you to use weapons.
