Deflection "Is this yours?"

2
The power to create a protective barrier.
Used by Ringo Hidari, Created by ShinSeijin.
(Activating this Effect is not obvious. The only sign you are using an Effect is when your eyes begin to glow.)

When Ringo is about to be hit by an attack, his golden eyes begin to glow as he calculates the vector(s) of the attack(s). The attack is then (somehow) deflected back towards the attacker or towards another direction.

Exert your Mind and spend an Action or Reaction. Roll Intellect + Science at Difficulty 6.

If you succeed, you create a barrier around yourself, which absorbs the next Outcome + 2 Damage. Any Damage absorbed by the barrier is reflected back to the attacker, up to a maximum of the Barrier Strength Parameter’s bonus. Their Armor applies in full. The Damage reduction from the barrier is applied before Armor. You may only have 1 active barrier at a time.

You must maintain Concentration while using this Effect. The barrier will fall if you are interrupted, or if it absorbs the full amount of Damage. When a barrier falls, you cannot use this Effect again for a minimum of 2 Rounds.

This Effect is not obvious, and the only sign you are using an Effect is when your eyes begin to glow. If someone suspects that an Effect was used, they must roll Perception + Alertness, Difficulty 8 to pick up on your Tell.

  • If you use this Effect as a Reaction to dodge, you still need to make a roll to dodge. The Effect will occur regardless of the Outcome of this roll, but if you fail you will be hit by the relevant attack prior to the Effect occurring.

While Agent 903 does Try to keep her fronting blackouts from disturbing Jasmine, a job is a job, and she will not fail, even at the cost of Jasmines comfort or sanity.

This Effect activates whenever failing a Sleeper Cell roll.. It does not require an Action or Exertion. “Your target should be intuitively based on the triggering event.

You transform into Agent 903 for 30 minutes. You have access to all of your Powers while you are Agent 903, and you can use your equipment. Your Battle Scars, Injuries, and physical Liabilities are carried over between forms. Reverting from your Alternate Form cannot cause your existing Injuries to kill you. Instead, you remain Incapacitated.

While transformed, your Dexterity is increased by 1. You do not suffer any Stress while transformed.

Possession of this Power grants the following Trauma at all times: Sleeper Cell. Jasmine is completely unaware of what happens while she is Agent 903. and That's not me.

  • When triggered, the Effect activation resolves immediately after the triggering Action. It is not Reaction speed.
  • Attribute bonuses from multiple sources do not stack. Instead the highest bonus is used.
