Notes:

Weapon (Scimitar, silvered), Common These boneclaws are not forged blades, but a paired ritual weapon designed to enhance and transform the wearer’s natural claws rather than replace them. The claws are formed from polished bone fitted closely along the backs of the hands and forearms. Their cutting edges grow seamlessly from the wearer’s own claws, as if those claws had been lengthened, hardened, and reshaped. Fine, pale veins run through the bones – not real silver, not water but blood, pulsing through them in a way that cannot be explained. At rest, the boneclaws are short and compact. Their color is a muted turquoise, dull like dried bioluminescence. They feel warm to the touch, almost alive, and show signs of long use rather than craftsmanship meant for display. An alchemical process has bonded silver to this magic weapon. When you score a Critical Hit with it against a creature that is shape-shifted, the weapon deals one additional die of damage. Claw Reinforcement The boneclaws are worn, not wielded. Attacks made with this weapon resemble natural slashing and tearing motions rather than sword strikes. To an observer, it is often unclear where the wearer’s natural claws end and the weapon begins. Minor Property – Beacon When the boneclaws’ magic is active, they begin to glow softly. The light is bioluminescent rather than bright, and the colors pulse slowly, shifting between deep blue, pale blue, turquoise, violet, and pinkish hues, as if something beneath the surface were breathing. This glow is most visible in darkness or under the influence of strange magic, but it does not produce enough light to meaningfully illuminate the surroundings. Quirk – Metamorphic The boneclaws respond instinctively to danger and emotional tension. In calm moments, they remain short and subdued. In combat or imminent threat, they subtly lengthen, their shapes becoming more aggressive as the colors intensify and shift more rapidly, giving the impression of flowing, living blades. This transformation is not consciously controlled and has no effect on the weapon’s reach or damage. It is purely visual and narrative in nature.
