Axe-Hand (14): thrust 2d+1 cutting (KYOS: 4d cutting), Reach C-1.

Clawed Arm (14): thrust 1d-1 cutting, Reach C. Effective ST 11. This arm lacks the leverage to use any weapon that must be swung. Subtract one yard from the reach of any melee weapon wielded by the clawed arm.

Tentacles (14): The Thoon hulk has four short tentacles that encircle its mouth. These are treated as four short arms with Reach C and effective ST of 11. The Thoon hulk can use tentacles to attack for 1d-1 crushing damage, but usually uses the tentacles for grappling and manipulating objects. The tentacles are considered to be “off-hands” for the purpose of penalties, but not for the purpose of determining the arc of attack.

Overdrives (Alternative Abilities):

                Attack Overdrive: A Thoon hulk can spend 1 HP to deliver an extra attack, as if it had Extra Attack 1. This deactivates defense overdrive.

                Defense Overdrive: A Thoon hulk can spend 2 HP to enter defense overdrive. This increases its Dodge by 2. It lasts for 1 minute or until the Thoon hulk activates attack overdrive.
