Parasitic Twin
Prerequisites
Vestigial Arm discovery x2
Benefit
The
Alchemist’s vestigial arms are part of a parasitic twin on their torso, consisting of a head, a torso, and two arms (from the
Vestigial Arm discovery). Normally, the twin is mostly recessed within the
Alchemist’s body, with the visible arms acting like the
Vestigial Arm discovery, though the
Alchemist can manifest or hide the twin as a
Standard Action. The twin is
Helpless, fully subservient to the
Alchemist, and cannot be targeted or harmed. Once per day, if the
Alchemist succumbs to a mental effect that would render them
Unconscious,
Helpless, or not in control of their own actions (such as
Charm Person,
Feeblemind, or
Hold Person), they can reroll their saving throw; success means the twin absorbs the effect and the
Alchemist can ignore it. Using this ability sickens the
Alchemist for the duration of the absorbed effect (removing the effect from the twin ends the
Sickened condition), and they cannot use the twin’s arms during that time, though passive effects (such as from
Rings worn on the vestigial arms) continue normally.
