Varratanas are the primary sapient inhabitants of the Vast world of Varratien, known for the winds that sweep from its high, rocky bluffs across its wide, stormy seas.
Whether you are or aren’t a native of the Material Plane, it certainly holds little sway over you. Why go to the vidgame arcade when you could sample the endless delights of Elysium? Why settle your disputes at the local courthouse when you could get the opinion of the perfect arbiters of Axis? Why simply kill your enemies when you could annihilate their souls with the help of Abaddon? Regardless of your tendencies, focus (or lack of focus) on particular planes, or motivation for traveling, your knowledge of realities beyond your own is unmatched.
When you strike a creature with a cunning weapon and deal damage, you can attempt an Engineering, Life Science, or Mysticism check to identify the creature as appropriate (this takes no action). You gain a +2 circumstance bonus to this check. If you succeed, in addition to learning useful information about the creature, you gain a +1 circumstance bonus to the next saving throw you must attempt against that creature’s abilities within the next minute.
A familial weapon aims itself around all other creatures the wielder considers their family, and is usually decorated with a crest or other distinguishing mark. A weapon with this fusion can be attuned to a number of creatures equal to the weapon’s level, typically the owner’s family or friends. The bonus enemies receive from cover or soft cover provided by attuned creatures is reduced by 1. This weapon fusion can be applied only to ranged weapons.
A harmonic weapon reverberates with a constant, almost distracting hum or makes pleasant twanging noises when moved around. When you strike and deal damage to a creature with a harmonic weapon, the sound it produces finds a harmonic resonance in the creature. Before the beginning of your next turn, any ally that targets this creature with a weapon in the sonic category gains a +2 circumstance bonus to the attack. This weapon fusion can be applied only to weapons that deal sonic damage.
Rift remoras are leech-like outsiders that glide through the planes with supernatural intuition. These astral parasites are naturally attracted to interdimensional rifts. They gain sustenance from these misalignments of various planes of existence by absorbing the metaphysical potential energy through their long, drooping antennae. Their pale, near-transparent skin and circular, gaping maw of razor-sharp teeth gives them the appearance of deep-sea aquatic life. Though they don’t need to use it to feed, their ability to smell and home in on creatures not native to the plane they’re on makes them prized trackers by bounty hunters who specialize in pursuing targets across the planes.
