Beast's Embrace

Eldritch Carving (drawn: rare, tattooed: very rare, carved:


legendary), requires attunement
Shrouded by night, but with steady stride. Colored by blood,
but always clear of mind.
Scarified:
You have advantage in madness saving throws against
aberrations or effects made by an aberration but you only
require 4 short-term madness to gain a long-term madness.
While you are attuned to this rune you gain the following
effects and abilities:
Mutilate: Melee Attack: +9 to hit, reach 5 ft., one target. Hit:
2d8 + 8 piercing damage. You lunge forward against your
enemy, dropping your weapons and trying to kill the creature
with your bare hands. This attack scores a critical hit on a
roll of 19 or 20 on the d20. On a critical hit, you rip off one of
the target’s appendages. Roll a d12 on the following table for
the result:
1-2: Right forearm
3-4: Left forearm
5-6: Right hand
7-8: Left hand
9: Left leg
10: Right leg
11: Gut
12: Head
A creature that has an appendage ripped off takes 1d10
necrotic damage at the start of each of its turns as it bleeds
out (considered to be under the bleed effect), until it receives
magical healing. If its gut is ripped off, it takes 2d10 necrotic
damage instead. A creature that loses its head dies if it can't
live without it.
The rune seems to react each time a creature is attacked
using this skill.
After using this ability, gain a short-term madness, if it
managed to crit, gain a long-term madness.
