Tektonik Symbiote

This intriguing little creature resembles a rock-skinned, super-large spider and empowers it's hosts with tectonic entities it captures!

Host Type: Most creatures, even some supernaturals due to it's power source.

Host Environment: Forearm, gut or skull.

Hit Points: A minor mega damage creature with 20+1D6x10 M.D. It imbues it's partner with all but 10 of it's M.D.C. if necessary, and also adds 10 M.D.C. permanently (keep hit points and S.D.C. if such a creature).

Average Life Span: About 200 years.

Alignment: Any.

Powers: The effective fusion with the tectonic entities offers the following abilities (the host gets 12 entities):

• Most of the entities' psionic powers, specifically: The capacity to have almost unlimited I.S.P. on ley lines and siphoning 4 I.S.P from other's P.P.E. supplies (4-to-1 I.S.P.-P.P.E. conversion), empathy, mind block, presence sense, see the invisible, see aura, sixth sense, and telekinesis. However, unless the host has the entities use their powers, the powers are equal to level, stopping off at about level 6; no more growth. If the character is already psychic, they get the powers at 4th level, at which point they freeze until the character is 4th level, then they continue to grow.
• Other tectonic entities recognize the host as at least a brother being. There are two sides to this coin: If the tectonic entities detect that their brother entities are being forced to do things they do not like, then the host may face the wrath of the entities; at the very least, they'll kill the Tektonik Symbiote. On the other hand, if the entities find that their brothers are enjoying themselves (the host is releasing them often and giving them fun), they might even help the host! Keep in mind that the entities are Miscreant and Diabolic and enjoy killing pathetic humans.
• The host may release entities to infest things and do their typical role. If the entities are enjoying themselves, they will come back time and again. If they are not, or if their lives are threatened, it will take 1D4 times for the Tektonik to finally lose control of them. The entity may attack the host, or it may just leave. New entities are recaptured at the rate of one every 12 hours.
• The entities may make armor for the wearer; protection is typically 30-80% of the typical M.D.C. The armor must be made of "ambient" materials. The armor is supported by the entities and weighs nothing; full mobility, no penalties to prowl. In all forms, the A.R. is either 19-20 or max.

Bonuses: +30 I.S.P., +5 to save vs. horror factor,

Side Effects: The host is likely to have to fight the entities' desire for constant bloodshed.

Size: The thing is about the size of a bird spider. On the head, it looks like a demented crown.

Means of Elimination: Surgery, "talking" to the thing, and similar methods.

Cost: 20 million credits.
