Cyclopean structures are made of huge, irregular stone blocks. Ancient peoples believed only Giants could move such massive stones, some taller than a man and weighing tons apiece. Certainly, a Beast with this Atavism can lift many times his own weight, no matter how spindly or frail his outward
appearance.
Action: Reflexive
Normal Effect: The Beast has a surfeit of adrenaline and vast reserves of strength. Weights that would faze an ordinary man are contemptuously swept aside. He can dead lift, shove, or slowly pull any object whose Size does not exceed his own Size x (Lair dots + 1). Furthermore, he adds his Lair dots as automatic successes on Strength + Stamina rolls made to perform a feat of strength, such as lifting a massive object or breaking free of handcuffs.
Low Satiety: Anything the Beast can lift, he can also throw or use as an improvised melee weapon, regardless of whether it is a boulder or a person. Improvised weapons have a weapon bonus equal to the lower of their Size or Durability (Size or Stamina for a living creature). Also, an object’s Size is not subtracted from the Beast’s Strength + Dexterity + Athletics for determining the range he can throw it. This is in addition to the normal effect.
Satiety Expenditure: By spending a dot of Satiety, the Beast becomes a juggernaut capable of hurling cars and smashing obstacles in his path, and the urge for violence is writ large on his features. His mouth is set in a terrible thin line and his muscles look ropy, grotesquely bulging, and eager to unleash their power.
The Beast gains automatic successes equal to his Lair dots on all Strength related rolls for the remainder of the scene, not just feats of strength. This is in addition to the normal effect.
