Stinger

[Minor, 2 MP]

A poisonous stinger erupts from some part of your body—usually a needlelike barb protruding from an arm or leg joint, or a scorpionlike stinger on the end of a tail or similar appendage.

Benefit

Your sharp stinger is a natural weapon that deals 1d6 piercing damage (assuming you are Medium size).

Special

This mutation can be applied to a natural tail or can be used in conjunction with either the Tail or Prehensile Tail mutations, but the tail cannot be used as any other type of weapon or to grasp anything during the same round the stinger is used.

If you gain the Acidic Saliva or Venomous Bite mutation, you can apply that damage to your stinger rather than your bite attack. A creature with a stinger may qualify for those mutations even if it lacks a bite attack.
