PRESTIGE - [Kaiju] Description: Kaiju are the outcome of a fully evolved mutant. They utilize their giant, monstrous forms for a variety of attacks, specializing in area of effect combat using atomic blasts and massive, shockwave propagating stomps, punches, or slam attacks with a limb or tail. Skills/Levels: -Monstrous Form- Kaiju can still benefit from equipment, although it is absorbed into their bodies. You may notice some alterations to messages due to their unique nature. If a shield is equipped, a kaiju still gains the benefits of shield block. However, the shield block message will not display when damage is reduced. The message is replaced with one unique to the kaiju prestige class. A kaiju's damage messages are automatically changed to the hit/unarmed dmg type, regardless of the weapon equipped. (Special procedure messages generated by equipment are unchanged). Pillaging mobs have a decent chance to ignore any equipment absorbed by a kaiju. Kaiju cannot sneak. Sneak affects cannot be applied to kaiju. -Devour and Gorge- Kaiju can still devour corpses to regain energy. However gorge will devour all the corpses present in the room. Usage: gorge Increases mana by 50 points per corpse gorged. -Regeneration- An improved form of grow scar that heals a greater amount of damage. Usage: Regen. Cost: 600 mana -Mutations- Grants an improved form of many grow abilities. These abilities increase in power as the kaiju increases in level.
