A handheld alchemical device filled with transformative fluid with a retractable needle. This item has 3 charges. If you have proficiency with Alchemist’s Supplies, you can spend one hour with such supplies and a vial of beast blood to restore all charges, after which the supplies and beast blood are consumed.
Alchemical Enhancement. This item’s unique designs can help with the process of potion making. The time and cost of brewing potions with Alchemist’s Supplies are halved while utilizing this item.
Beast Blood Infusion. You can use a bonus action to spend a charge, injecting yourself or a willing creature within 5 feet of you with this device. The injected creature transforms into a bestial state, gaining the following features for 1 minute:
They have advantage on Wisdom (Perception) checks.
Their Unarmed Strikes deal 2d6 additional slashing damage.
They gain 2d6 temporary hit points at the start of each of their turns.
They gain the ability to speak to beasts as though they shared a language but lose the ability to speak all other languages.
For all of time, we have struggled to achieve the apex of mortal life; to push ourselves into the next stage of evolution. Who could have known that in order to go beyond our limits, we would need to harness the power of the seemingly lesser species of this world? With our highly advanced intellect, breaking through our physical limitations would solidify our position at the top of the evolutionary ladder. There will be failures along the way, but we must persist if we are to unlock our full potential!
