Outsider Presence

*Slot Body; Descriptors Fleshwarp, Mantle (Yzyndria), Psionic
*Class Daevic, Guru, Promethean, Vizier
*Saving Throw None
Beneath and beyond your skin lurks an inscrutable and alien form.
Outsider presence allows you to grow extensions of your physical and psionic form in pockets of folded space in and around your body. Unlike other [fleshwarp] veils, outsider presence can be suppressed by antimagic fields and other effects that suppress magic, as well as by a dimensional anchor effect. Body parts gained with this veil can appear and disappear on your person wherever and whenever they are useful, as long as you could normally take physical actions.
When you shape outsider presence, choose two of the following options. You may choose new options each time you shape this veil.
*Arm You gain an extra arm. This does not give you any extra attacks, but can be used to wield weapons and make attacks as part of your attack action. Because of its flexible positioning, this grants you a +2 circumstance bonus to Climb skill checks and grapple CMB checks, which increases by +1 for each additional arm you have beyond the first. You may select this option (1 + 1 per essence bound) times.
*Hide You hide a single existing part of your biology in your outsider presence. This grants you a +5 circumstance bonus to Disguise skill checks made to appear as a creature who lacks that particular body part. You may not hide your head in this way, but you may hide individual parts of it, such as an ear or eye. While hidden, you are treated as lacking that particular body part. Unlike body parts gained with this veil, a hidden body part must reappear where it would normally exist on your body. You may select this option any number of times.
*Leg You gain an extra leg. This gives you a +5 ft. bonus to your base speed, which increases by +5 ft. per additional leg you have beyond the first, and a +2 circumstance bonus to CMD vs trip attempts, which increases by +1 per additional leg you have beyond the first. You may select this option (1 + 1 per essence bound) times.
*Mind You psionically extend your mind into your outsider presence. This grants you a +1 bonus to Will saves vs mind affecting effects, which increases by +1 for each additional time you take this option. If you have a power point reserve, you gain 3 additional power points for each time you take this option; if you have taken this option twice, you gain the benefits of the Deep Focus feat; and if you have taken this option three times, you can, as a swift action, use schism as a psi-like ability once per day. You may select this option once per odd point of essence bound to this veil.
*Organ You have redundant copies of vital organs and body structures in your outsider presence. For each time you select this option, you gain a cumulative +1 bonus to Fortitude saves and a 10% chance to negate any critical hit made against you. You may select this option once per odd point of essence bound to this veil.
Essence: You must bind essence to outsider presence the first time you shape it each day rather than invest in it. For each point of essence bound to outsider presence, select another option from the list.
Chakra Bind (Body) [Da 12/20, Gu 20, Pr 20, Vi 20]: When you bind outsider presence to your Body chakra, your true form becomes that which exists in your pockets of folded space, with your "normal" body simply being an extension of yourself into standard space. Any effect that affects your mind or soul has a 50% chance to fail, as it is only targeting a small part of these. Additionally, as an immediate or move action, you may retreat fully into your outsider presence, seeming to collapse in on yourself into nothingness. While within your folded space, you can only take movement actions (including to exit your space), and are incorporeal and undetectable by any means save for true seeing and equivalent effects. If you are affected by a dimensional anchor with outsider presence bound, you are forced into your folded space for its duration rather than having this veil suppressed.
