Namekian

Namekians resemble humanoids with dangling antennae, green skin that varies from light to dark tones and pink, pale yellow or peach coloured callouses appearing over their major muscle groups. Namekians have pointy ears, and red, conjoined rings around their ankles and wrists. Though some Namekians are on average around 8 feet tall, others can grow to 15ft tall and larger, often large-bodied and powerful in their own right. Namekians have peculiar biology and are able to regenerate, elongate their limbs and even temporarily grow in size. Their species are considered to be exclusively Male, there has been no such thing as a Female Namekian and notions of gender are superficial to them.

Namekians can be found wearing robes and thick, warm fabric around their neck, with some preferring lighter outfits with bare arms and chest showing. Namekians normally live in fertile lands with plenty of where they can grow fruit and vegetables. Despite the fact that they only require water in order to survive, the crops become useful trade to other settlements, which is how most lawfully abiding Namekians live. Aside from the mundane Namekians who go about simple lives, the Dragon-Clan Namekians seek spiritual and academic enlightenment while Warrior-Clan Namekians serve as guardians for their people. Great-Clan Namekians are typically seen as an independant group that exercises their power and allies themselves with other larger folk.

Name	Requirements	Effect
The Namekian gains a new Racial trait for every Potential Skill-Rank they own:
Namekian Healing	Dragon Clan Archetype OR 60 Skill-Rating	♦ This trait is gained for free if the Namekian is of the Dragon Clan archetype. The Namekian develops a special power to heal others by touch: ♦ This ability is a Standard-Action (50 AP) to activate. ♦ While active, it can be maintained every round as a Quick-Action (25 AP). ♦ Activating and maintaining the ability costs 1 Meta-point. ♦ The ability can only be used on a willing/friendly target within the Namekian's natural reach. ♦ The ability heals the target's Health points (HP), restoring 1 HP per Potential Skill-Rank per round. (The amount scales based on the caster and recipient, the multiplier prioritises the one with the higher Size-Rating)
> Energy Transfer	Namekian Healing	The Namekian develops a more advanced technique for energy transfer, and can siphon magical energy unto themselves: ♦ This is an ability that requires a Standard-Action (50 AP) to activate. ♦ This ability can be maintained as a Quick-Action (25 AP) each round. ♦ The target must be within the Namekian's natural reach for the duration of the ability to function. ♦ If the Namekian uses Namekian Healing, the target may now recieve 2 HP and 1 MP per Potential Skill-Rank. ♦ If used on something with magical energy contained within, the Namekian may siphon up to 1 MP per Potential Skill-Rank. (Magic items or equipment siphoned will be made mundane for 20 hours and cannot be siphoned further) (More substantial sources may be continiously siphoned, however the Namekian will take damage equal to their Endurance score for every round after the first, their Namekian Regeneration ability will also be disabled for 1 hour)
Expansion	Warrior Clan Archetype OR 60 Skill-Rating	♦ This trait is gained for free if the Namekian is of the Warrior Clan archetype. ♦ Great Clan Namekians are forbidden to take this trait, as it is incompatible with their archetype. The Namekian's natural biological functions causes them to grow larger as they age: ♦ The Namekian is now considered to be Large-sized with a Size-Rating of 2. They now stand an average height of 12-16ft tall.
> Superior Expansion	Great Clan Archetype OR Expansion	The Namekian matures further and becomes a towering version of their former self: ♦ The Namekian is now considered to be Huged-sized with a Size-Rating of 4. They now stand an average height of 30ft-36ft.
Thick Skin	Namekians have a surprisingly tough skin that is resistant to damage: ♦ The Namekian's base HP is increased by 2 points, this stacks with other Perks that increase base HP. ♦ Namekians gain a special 20% resistance to Cold damage, this is applied before Damage-Reduction. ♦ The Chill and Freeze status effects are downgraded by one stage when inflicted upon the Namekian. ♦ Namekians resist the effects of cold-temperature environments by one stage. This stacks with any other cold-temp resistances.
> Tough Hide	Thick Skin	The Namekian trains harder to grow a thicker skin that can withstand more harm: ♦ The Namekian's base HP is increased by an additional 2 points. ♦ The Namekian now gains 1 point of natural Damage-Reduction due to their tough exterior. (This scales with Size-Rating). ♦ The Namekian's special resistance to Cold is now increased to 40%, from 20%.
Namekian Regeneration	Namekians have incredible cell-regeneration, able to heal much faster than most species: ♦ This ability is a passive that can be activated as a Free Action. ♦ This ability costs 1 Meta-point per round to maintain at each of the Namekian's start phases. ♦ The Namekian regenerates 1 HP per round per Endurance attribute point owned at their start-phase. (This HP scales with their Size-Rating) ♦ This trait also doubles the effect of any other source that allows the Namekian to recover health points. ♦ While the ability is active, the Namekian gains a +25 bonus to Resolve checks to recover from negative physiological status conditions. This Trait is enhanced when the Namekian has a Skill-Rating of 60 and 120 respectively: ♦ SR 60: Health recovery effects are tripled (x3) instead of doubled. ♦ SR 120: Health recovery effects are quadrupled (x4) instead of tripled.
Elastic Body	Namekians have the ability to elongate their limbs, particularly their arms, in order to extend their reach: ♦ This ability requires a Standard-Action (50 AP) to activate. ♦ After activation, this ability can be maintained as a Quick-Action (25 AP) each start-phase until dismissed. ♦ Dismissing the effect is a Free Action. While active, the Namekian can elongate the arms, legs and body to gain the following benefits: ♦ Increases their natural reach by a number of steps equal to their Size-Rating. ♦ When used on the legs: The Namekian can move an additional number of steps equal to their Size-Rating. While active, the Namekian can extend their reach further for a brief period of time, with limitations: ♦ As a Standard-Action (50 AP): the Namekian can extend their natural reach to x8 their normal amount to reach for or grab things. ♦ As a Standard-Action (50 AP): the Namekian can elongate their legs and body in order to reach over and see at a higher vantage point. ♦ The above actions can only persist up to one round (unless the Namekian is holding onto something while extending).
Great Namek	Namekians have the ability to increase their size to truly Colossal proportions, increasing their durability and power: ♦ This is an ability that requires a Full-Round Action (ALL) in order to activate. ♦ This ability also requires 3 Meta-points to activate, but requires no additional costs to maintain. ♦ After activation, the Namekian must use a Standard-Action (50 AP) each round to maintain the effect. (If the Namekian is of the Great Clan archetype, this is a Quick-Action (25 AP) instead. ♦ This ability causes the Namekian's Size-Rating to increase up to x4 its original amount, or up to Size-8 (whichever is lower).
> Super Great Namek	Great Namek	A Namekian can master their Great Namek ability to enlarge themselves further in size, their mastery of this form allows them to move and act more easily: This is an ability that functions similarly to Great Namek, except: ♦ The maximum Size-Rating the Namekian can attain via this ability is raised to 24. ♦ For an additional +2 Meta-Points, the Namekian can increase their Size-Rating by a factor of x8, instead of x4. (If the Namekian is already enlarged, they can simply spend +2 MP to go from x4 to x8.)
