100 or 120, either is okay with me.

I say a seperate skill for it.  For each die you make you can use 1/4 of
your mod.  BC of like 300 or so warrior.  Or just base it off the Lancing
skill but allow any weapon to be used?

Definately some check to hold on to the weapon.  I'd prefer a skill check
of some sort to be honest, like 3dice, or a 4+ die str check.

This brings up another question for me.  The flying with wings monster
ability.  Is it like the 'fly' spell, I personally think it should be
since you have to do some serious concentration and its like running,
but I have heard at least one person say its like the 'hawksoar' ability.
Also the ability to buy with a mutate the effect hawksoar ability just
bugs the hell out of me as its prolly one of the top 5 spells in the game
power wise.

Greg?  Dan?
