Quote:Bodypart Yogsothoth (Approval Link) (Approval Link Update) (1200) (Requires Remote Control Proficiency, Ranged Proficiency, Physical Strength, Malleability, Flight, Area Shield Proficency) - Desco exists as two parts which are inherently one. There is her small, little demon girl body and the tentacled monstrosity that usually floats behind her, referred to as Yogsothoth. While always physically separate from Desco, Yogsothoth is as much a part of her body as her arms or legs. Hurting Yogsothoth is the same as damaging Desco's arm or any other part of her body. Yogsothoth can move independently from Desco, consciously or unconsciously, and his tentacles are Desco's main weapons opening up as mouths, the edges where the tentacles open where the light and dark purples on her body meet making them jagged and are also razor sharp. They can also be used as bludgeoning weapons, slapping enemies instead of biting. Desco does not normally exhibit elastic properties except for her tail, she just can't do it, but Yog's many tentacles do stretch far and wide to attack, up close or at a fair distance away, up to 20 feet. Desco typically uses only the top two tentacles for any attack. (Consider that to stretch out and increase in size they draw in mass from the rest of of Yog, to follow the restrictions of Malleability)
Levitate - Yogsothoth can be summoned or dismissed at will, taking a few seconds to materialize. Yog is summoned in some position immediately next to Desco. While he is directly behind Desco she can float and move a few feet above the ground with only slightly more effort than walking or running, though Desco is typically pretty slow. Yogsothoth can even be, and often is, summoned through unconscious instinct.
Instinct - Guided mostly through instinct, Yog watches through the many yellow eyes all over Desco's body, which Desco herself can't see through even to react to another's presence, and with that nearly 360 degree vision he can see most things coming and instinctively attempt to block though this is less speedy or effective than blocking consciously. When Yogsothoth blocks for Desco, consciously or by instinct, his skin hardens and Desco takes less damage as long as the block is successful.
I have this, or more specifically addressing the Instinct section of Yogsothoth.
He can block attacks, reduce damage incoming damage, and block with near 360 vision on instinct.
I'm about to get Foresight, which allows detection of incoming attacks.
These two things do seem to go hand in hand but if I got Foresight and just changed Yogsothoth to conform and require it, it would also be blocked by Suppresion, something that makes no sense, she has 360 puesdo-vision, not extrasensory powers. As it, it doesn't get affected by Suppression.
You think I'd need to spend another 300 OM to use Instinct to block? Since she can also use this power consciously, I think the best course now might actually be to just not change it at all. Foresight lets her detect things, so if she does she can possibly react and block.
