Unofficial Tabletop Role-Playing Game
Great Ape, or Oozaru, changes your Saiyan character into a giant ape with unmatched strength and power. This form is massive, and increases your physical attacks sharply. When you use this form, you will transform into a gigantic monkey-like creature, whose form is like that of a gorilla with a tail and the head of a baboon. With red eyes and jagged teeth, you are a ferocious sight to behold. Similar to a werewolf, when your gaze lands on a full moon, your character will uncontrollably change into the Great Ape form until the light of the full moon fades. This process is impossible to stop once started so long as your character has a tail. If at any point your tail is removed, for any reason, you will lose access to the Oozaru form. If your tail is lost during transformation the form will end, and you will still suffer from stress exhaustion.
The Oozaru Alternate Form is unique in a few aspects. You cannot enter this Transformation normally. You can only use a Transformation Maneuver to enter any stage of the Oozaru Alternate Form if there is a full moon visible, a Fake Moon created by the Magical Ability of the same name in the Spellbook (see – Fake Moon) visible or something temporarily acting as if a full moon (under your ARC’s discretion) visible.
While you are in any stage of the Oozaru Alternate Form, you cannot exit this Transformation unless you lose your tail, you are defeated or the source of your Transformation (the full moon, typically) is destroyed. This includes transforming into any other Alternate Form or Legendary Form Transformations (except Super Saiyan 4). If you are in the Golden Oozaru stage of the Oozaru Alternate Form or you are using an Enhancement Power in conjunction with either stage of the Oozaru Alternate Form and you would fail the Stress Test, you do not return to your normal state but rather return to the first stage of the Oozaru Alternate Form. You still suffer from Stress Exhaustion but it does not affect the first stage of the Oozaru Alternate Form.

Hulking Mass. When you target an opponent with an attack, you may treat them as if they were -1 Size Category smaller for the sake of the Punching Down rules. If you do not benefit from Punching Down when attacking an opponent, increase your Wound Rolls by +1d4(T). Additionally, if you deal damage past the Soak Value of a target, that target suffers from 5(T) Lethal Damage at the start of their next turn.
