Tentacles

This rule just plain sucks. It needs a complete overhaul in order to be useful. We don't want to deprecate it, so get cracking on a revision, slacker!

The mage summons 15-foot-long, oozy, black tentacles that burst from the floor or ground. The GM should treat the tentacles as a single being, with 30 Health Points. The tentacles act on the initiative order of the mage. The tentacles have a sticky substance on their underside, so when a tentacle makes a Grab check, it receives a +10 bonus, and its enemies have a tougher time escaping. If a tentacle has a creature constricted, it deals crushing damage equivalent to its Muscle ×2. The power of the tentacles is dependent on the Intensity.
