Adopt attribute
EM 300 Range Self Duration 1hr+1hr/rank Target Self Storage none Base chance 15%
With this spell the beast-master can adopt a single attribute of a known animal. Typically it raises an attribute for a single purpose eg a monkey tail raises MD for the purposes of climbing only, or hawk eyes raising PC to notice far off things, but not detecting ambushes (which may require spider eyes). This increase is 1+1 per rank. At higher ranks more fantastical attributes can be adopted. The attribute being adopteed manifests itself as the appropiate animal part replacing that of a beast master. Other attributes are gained at certain ranks. The adept needs to be familiar with the animal and it's attribute.
