The chief trait of Azure Fate is the empowerment by greater control and efficiency.

Monster Attunements
Aberration
Blades of Bone
Requirement: Sturdy Hide
Aberrations are known for their frightening visage, and part of that terror-inducing façade is their ability to make weapons out of organic matter. With Blades of Bone, you too can create weapons made of bone sharpened to a razor's edge. Serrated blades, brutal axes, and spears of bone are yours to command at will.
MP cost is dependent on the complexity and strength of the weapon. Strength, durability, and overall capacity to create an osseous weapon are dependent upon INT, CHR, aberration attunement, and the Skill Level of the type of weapon you wish to create.
At any time while wielding an ossified weapon you may sacrifice MP or HP to restore its durability.
Bone Armor
Requirement: Sturdy Hide
An Aberration is a walking armory, capable of supplying itself with both shield and sword at a moment's notice. With Bone Armor, you can adapt the defensive prowess of an Aberration to your own ends. You can choose to sacrifice HP, MP, or SP to create bones that erupt from your body and provide additional protection.
