Aspects (Alternative Abilities):
                Aspect of Bloody Slaughter: A Thoon soldier can spend 1 HP to deliver an extra attack, as if it had Extra Attack 1. When adopting this aspect, a Thoon soldier says in Undercommon, “Slaughter for Thoon!” This deactivates all other aspects.
                Aspect of the Fiery Sun: A Thoon soldier can spend 1 HP to channel quintessence from its body, creating heat. Anything that touches the Thoon soldier when this aspect is adopted takes 1d burning damage. In addition, the Thoon soldier shines like a torch. When adopting this aspect, a Thoon soldier says in Undercommon, “All will burn for Thoon!” This deactivates all other aspects.
Aspect of the Impervious Tower: A Thoon soldier can spend 1 HP to extrude extra armor plates, increasing its DR by 4. When adopting this aspect, a Thoon soldier says in Undercommon, “Stand and fight! Thoon is Thoon!” This deactivates all other aspects.
Aspect of the Ravenous Horde: A Thoon soldier can spend 1 HP to reconfigure its legs, gaining Enhanced Move 1 on land. When adopting this aspect, a Thoon soldier says in Undercommon, “Walk with Thoon!” This deactivates all other aspects.
Aspect of the Death Blossom: A Thoon soldier has one final aspect that it can activate for free. While this aspect is active, any critical failure on the HT roll for a major wound makes the Thoon soldier explode! It also explodes if it reaches 0 HP. Treat this as a 6dx(HP/10) crushing explosion. The blast instantly reduces the Thoon soldier to -10xHP, regardless of the damage it inflicts. When adopting this aspect, a Thoon soldier says in Undercommon, “Death blooms in the name of Thoon! Thoon! Thoon!” This deactivates all other aspects.
