If my Fire Kineticist fails the first save for Baleful polymorph when a witch hits me with a spell turning me into a raven, but i make the second save can i still fire my blasts? the description says my hands or a prehensile appendage have to be free.


Mark Seifter (who designed the class) said that a Kitsune kineticist couldn't use blasts when foxy because they lacked prehensile appendages, so I'm going to say no, since if foxes don't have prehensile appendages then neither do ravens.

link to that

The standard is probably "your character has prehensile appendages enough to use a kinetic blast if and only if they could also wield a weapon".

Go for a tiny-sized monkey instead!

Well, developer intent isn't magic. So if your GM is willing to indulge your visions of adorable fox katas, have fun.

But for the Baleful Polymorph example, the person who curses you would generally choose to curse you in a way that shuts down your thing, if applicable.

Unless at near a large body of water, then choose earthworm (aka bait).

So, there is a spellcaster somewhere with Create Water, multiple fishbowls in a handy haversack, and nameplates.
