Common animals (or Teriock animals) with the spirit and some of the form of a Teriock magic item embedded in it. Most (but not all) of them are items that had spirited prior to the Misting. The items must be present as a part of the animal. For example, yellow crabs can have magic axes embedded in them. If defeated, a hunter check can be used to harvest the item with a DC of 5 per item tier. It exists as a temporary item with powers that fade after 24 hours. Once the powers fade, the body part crumbles away.

You count as an item for the purposes of certain abilities that target them. The relevant abilities are those would apply one of the following properties to a piece of equipment. You take the effect listed below instead. If the ability was magically powered, then any damage dealt is magic in addition to its other types. If the ability was delivered by a weapon, then the damage has all the damage types that weapon would deal in addition to its other types.

• Destroyed: Take 1d10 damage.
• Shattered: Take a hack of your choice.
• Warded: The next self delivery ability you use is warded.

For any other passive properties that the equipment may gain, your body parts gain those properties. Additionally, any natural AV you may have counts as armor for these purposes.
