The caster grants one creature two long claws that replace its hands, tentacle tips, or whatever else is appropriate. The claws deal damage based on the creature’s size.
Creature Size | Claw Damage |
Fine | 1 |
Diminutive | 1d2 |
Tiny | 1d3 |
Small | 1d4 |
Medium-size | 1d6 |
Large | 1d8 |
Huge | 2d6 |
Gargantuan | 2d8 |
Colossal | 4d6 |
The creature can make attacks with both claws as if it were proficient with them. Just as with a creature that has natural weapons, the subject takes no penalty for making two claw attacks. The subject is treated as armed. Furthermore, these claws gain a +2 enhancement bonus on attack and damage rolls.
If the creature already has claws, those claws gain a +2 enhancement bonus on attack and damage rolls, and the claws damage increases as if the creature were two size categories larger.
