IQ:	3	Per:	11

    Sharp Teeth (14): thrust 1d+2 cutting (KYOS: 2d+2 cutting), Reach C. Only usable against insubstantial beings.
    Sharp Claws (14): thrust 1d+2 cutting (KYOS: 2d+2 cutting), Reach C-1. Only usable against insubstantial beings.

    Displacement: A displacer beast can warp light in its immediate vicinity, causing it to wrap around its body. This reaches to a two-yard radius around the beast. With care, it can include a few friends as well. Subtract 4 from any attempts to see the displacer beast using normal vision or Infravision; there is no resistance roll. Even if someone does manage to see the beast, subtract 4 from any attack roll against it that relies on vision to hit. The displacer beast itself can see perfectly while using this ability. It activates this ability by taking a Concentrate maneuver. Each activation lasts for 1 minute.
