Claws

Claws are curved appendages, sharpened to a point, that grow on the ends of the limbs of many animals. Typically Claws are used in the animal kingdom to grip surfaces and attack prey. Within the Legacy of Kain series, claws are implied to be a natural development of Vampires, which provide them with a basic weapon when unarmed; as such Claws are featured as a 'weapon' in Soul Reaver, Soul Reaver 2  and'' Blood Omen 2.
