Herb-Treated Venom: The poison has been mixed with various herbs to soften its effects. In its weakened state, it generally causes nausea, painful nerve sensitivity, and if left untreated for too long, can cause abscesses and make the wound begin to rot and fester. This will not kill the sufferer, and is generally what he coats his weapons with.
Full Venom: A bite from his jaws, or too many quills breaking and injecting their poison, will have dangerous results. In its natural state it eats away at tissue, and can cause internal bleeding. It will quickly begin to cause paralysis, up to the point that breathing is made impossible. This generally requires a few rolls, to ensure enough is injected into the system. Less, while not deadly, is still dangerous. It will not cause the nerve sensitivity, but can still cause internal bleeding and mild loss of muscular control.
Mechanical Arm: The ruined left stump has been worked on, and flesh is melded to a metal cuff, strangely formed and flexible. Attached to the cuff is a mechanical arm. Blackened metal forms faux musculature segments that shift and move with every imagined flex. Graceful golden filigree decorates it in places, and the digits are fittingly fingerlike, with roughened tips to better facilitate grip.
- In draconic form, the arm shifts and twist to form a more fitting paw and leg.
- In human form, the arm has a startling ability; it can fire small metal bolts, which are deadly, sharp, and accurate.
- In both forms, his talons secrete the treated venom, making them even more dangerous than they already are.
- A small compartment on the arm hides a miniaturized, simplified draconic forelimb. This attaches neatly, when he is small, allowing him use of a very simplified prosthetic foreleg. ...though now that his natural magic is no longer bound, he is able to resize his usual prosthetic.
