Fossil Fragment (Deinonychus Claw)
A fossilized claw calls forth the full skeleton of a raptor once a day, ready to fight, obey, and carry a smaller rider.
A fossil fragment is a piece of a fossil creature, typically a smaller bone from a larger specimen.
If the fragment is slain while in creature form, it reverts to its fragment shape and can't be activated again for 1 week. If the fragment is destroyed, its magic is lost.
This curved claw becomes a Deinonychus when activated. It can be called upon once per day and can remain in deinonychus form for no more than 10 minutes. The skeleton can serve as a mount for a creature one size smaller than it or smaller.

Activations
Fossile Metamorphosis 2 (Concentrate, Manipulate) · Effect You activate the fragment by placing it on solid ground and then speaking its name, causing the fragment to form the full fossilized skeleton of a creature. In creature form, the fragment has the Minion trait. Because it's an animated fossil instead of a living creature, it has the Construct and Earth traits and lacks its normal creature type trait (typically Animal). It's also immune to bleed, Death effects, Disease, Doomed, Drained, Fatigued, Healing, Nonlethal attacks, Paralyzed, Poison, Sickened, Vitality, Void, and Unconscious. It can understand your language, and it obeys you to the best of its ability when you use an action to command it. The specifics of each creature, as well as the activation's frequency, if any, appear in its entry below.
