Available To: ThriKreen, Ulb, Siarran.
Fu: 1, Shot: 3, Max Schticks: 1 (Siarran, ThriKreen), Any (Ulb).
All ThriKreen and Siarrans have two pairs of arms, but not all develop the ability to use all four arms in concert. An Ulb can create extra arms out of their own protoplasmic matter. With this schtick, you can use these extra arms in a coordinated manner.
The most usual use of this is to attack with additional weapons. For each time the schtick is bought, you may attack with one additional one-handed weapon (or unarmed attack) at the same time. Each weapon makes a separate attack roll.
As an option, you can instead hold a single two-handed weapon with four hands, adding twice your number of schtick picks to the damage of the weapon.
It is also possible to use the extra arms to distract observers, allowing you to do stage magic, pickpocketing, and other similiar Deceit stunts with a bonus of +2 per schtick pick.
