Legacy Power: Fury of the Wendigo

Rip and tear, until it is done.

A 1 Gift Unarmed Mastery Power used by Amaranth Barclay, created by leonvanderblight.

Description

Channeling the fury of the wendigo, the caveman is filled with brutal fury that drives him to acts of incomparable brutality. Striking, biting, and moving with a preternatural fury beyond human comprehension, though he is similarly driven to madness and is compelled to dine on the flesh of his defeated foes when the mask has served its purpose. Until then, he will be rage personified.

System

Passive, always in effect. Unarmed attacks will do +1 more damage, and Brawn does not act as Armor against them. The target's other Armor is Reduced to 1/2, rounded up.

Unlike the Ability Brawl, this Power does not affect small weapons such as knives.


Enhancements

  • Brutal Strikes (If your attack inflicts a Battle Scar, you may choose which of the appropriate-severity Battle Scars the target suffers. If it causes a less severe Injury, you may inflict a Minor Battle Scar of your choosing.)
  • Armored Fist (You cannot take Damage from attacking a dangerous material (such as steel armor, a spiked carapace, or an acidic blob). You may Defend against melee, projectile, or firearm attacks from any range and Clash with those in range of your attacks.)
  • Bullet Parry (You may use a Reaction to Defend against any Melee, thrown, or projectile Attack in range of your Attacks.)

Drawbacks

  • Maddening (Possession of this Gift causes a Trauma that cannot be cured by any means. The chosen Trauma must be likely to come up on a Contract.)
    • Trauma - Roll mind at difficulty 8 or eat the hearts of foes defeated while the mask is on
  • Unique Focus (This Power takes the form of a specific, unique item, which can be borrowed, lost, or stolen. You must use / wear this item as intended to use this Power.)
    • Focus - Wendigo Skull Helmet
  • Focus (Using this Effect requires a specific kind of item.)
    • Object - Wendigo Skull Helmet

Parameters

Additional Damage: 1 ( +1 ) Armor Effectiveness: 1 ( Reduced to 1/2, rounded up )
