FEATURES

Shapeshifter - Passive: While in darkness or moonlight the Aswang can change its form to resemble any humanoid. A PC may be able to see past the shifted form with a successful Instinct Roll.

Sever - Action: Mark a Stress to sever itself into an Upper and Lower form. The Aswang (Upper Form) appears within Melee range. When the Aswang marks 2 or more HP it can forgo marking a Stress to use this feature. If the Aswang did not mark a Stress to use this move, all targets within Close range mark a Stress.

Pin the Blame - Action: Spend a Fear to have the Aswang claim they saw a PC committing a heinous act. The PC must succeed on a Presence Reaction Roll in order to refute the claim. On a failure, the PC marks 2 Stress. This feature cannot be used if the “Sever” action has been used.

Garner Support - Reaction: When a PC takes a social action against the Aswang, mark a Stress to convince a crowd that the PC is harassing a defenseless person. The crowd becomes hostile to the PC until convinced of their innocence with a successful Presence Roll. This feature cannot be used if the “Sever” action has been used.
