Prehensile Hair and free touch from touch spells.


Rules Questions


So one can of course deliver a held charge from a touch spell via natural weapons. This is not what the question is about.

Prehensile Hair states it is a limb and has the dexterity of a human hand. So it is like having another longer arm.

So can someone use it to deliver the free touch granted when casting a touch spell?


Yes.

Yep, no reason why they couldn't. It's a very useful way for a witch to cast and deliver inflict spells to enemies, or cure spells to allies, while still staying back a few feet from actual melee.


My gut was telling me yes but oddly I had never seen it brought up before and wanted to make sure there was nothing I was missing. Thanks.


I don't see why not.

Aberrant bloodline Sorcerers get a similar benefit from their Long Limbs ability, so why not?


They can use it to make the free touch, but it has to be a touch. If you want to also hurt them with the hair at the same time, you need to wait and make an attack.
