Gallatross Claws

The Gallatross, a legendary creature revered by many, possesses formidable claws that are as fearsome as they are majestic. These claws, each measuring up to two feet in length, are not just tools of predation but symbols of the Gallatross's power and primal grace.

Made of a dense, bone-like material, the claws are naturally sharp and incredibly durable. Their unique composition allows them to retain sharpness even after rigorous use. The claws have a distinct, slightly curved shape, reminiscent of great predatory birds. They are often a deep black or dark gray color, with a slight iridescent sheen under direct light.

Gallatross claws are considered natural weapons. They can be used for unarmed strikes, dealing 1d8 slashing damage. The claws are adept at grasping objects or prey, granting the Gallatross a strong grip. They are also well-suited for climbing, providing the Gallatross a climbing speed equal to its walking speed as well as advantage on Strength (Athletics) checks related to climbing.

As a gallatross grows in strength, so does their claws sharpen. Upon reaching character level 5, 10 and 15 the claws damage increases by 1d8. (Example: At level 10 the claws deal 3d8 slashing damage.) Upon reaching level 10 the claws are so sharp they can easily dig into the ground and hold the Gallatross in place. As long as the Gallatross' feet are standing on solid ground it can not be pushed/knocked back, around or down.

The Gallatross, a creature of legend, possesses a fearsome mouth that is able to crush anything that enters it. The mouth is large and capable of opening wide, revealing rows of razor-sharp teeth that gleam like crystals.

The teeth of the Gallatross are made of a hard, enamel-like substance, incredibly tough and sharp. They are designed for both tearing and crushing, making them effective against a variety of prey and obstacles. The teeth vary in size, with the largest being up to a foot in length. They are conical and slightly curved, optimized for gripping and tearing flesh.

The Gallatross's bite is a powerful natural weapon. It can be used in combat, dealing 2d8 piercing damage, plus additional damage based on the your Strength modifier. The jaw strength of the Gallatross is immense. It can latch onto targets, maintaining a grip. You may force anyone you have bitten into to make an strength saving throw or be grappled by your jaws. If they are still help in your mouth by your next turn you can use grip and tear to thrash and throw them around causing them to take an extra 2d10 slashing damage. However you drop the target after doing so.

As a Gallatross grows stronger so does its jaws. Upon reaching level 5 your natural bite attack also applies a bleed effect (if the target can bleed) that deals 1d8 damage at the end of its turn until the wound is healed. Furthermore, upon reaching level 10 you gain the ability to throw targets at the end of grip and tear. They can be thrown at most 15 feet and anything they hit (IE, a wall or creature) take 1d8 bludgeoning damage.
