You have integrated cybernetic enhancements inspired by the Mantis Blades from Cyberpunk 2077 into your body, granting you deadly retractable blades in your forearms. You gain the following benefits:
-
You have a pair of Mantis Blades, which are natural weapons that you are proficient with. They deal 1d8 slashing damage on a hit. The damage increases to 2d8 at 5th level, 3d8 at 11th level, and 4d8 at 17th level.
-
You can use a bonus action to extend or retract your Mantis Blades.
-
While your Mantis Blades are extended, you gain a climbing speed equal to your walking speed and can move up, down, and across vertical surfaces and upside down along ceilings, while leaving your hands free.
-
When you successfully hit a creature with both Mantis Blades in the same turn, you can make a special grapple attempt against that creature as a bonus action, using your Strength (Athletics) check contested by the target's Strength (Athletics) or Dexterity (Acrobatics) check (the target chooses the ability to use).
-
You can use your Mantis Blades as tools for your Artificer's Tinkering feature, allowing you to make Dexterity (Sleight of Hand) checks or Dexterity checks to pick locks with advantage.
Special: You can take this feat multiple times. Each time you do, the damage of your Mantis Blades increases by one additional d8.
