The character has some sort of natural ranged weapon, using Ranged Weapons to target it. Long range equals 20 times the number of Level in this Special Ability times the character’s Strength, lifting, or applicable Ranged Weapons (as appropriate) in meters.

The damage for Ranged attacks is the character’s Strength Damage plus 1D (Ballistics) or 2D (Energy blasts) per Level in this Special Ability. The projection must have a visible effect (such as a ray that glows or bone spikes) and it may not do mental damage.

Note that, regardless of the nature of the projection, there are no additional effects from this type of Special Ability unless an Enhancement allows otherwise.
