Legacy Power: Odessa's Embrace
The blessing of the goddess!
A 5 Gift Sleep Power used by Vergil Arrior, created by leonvanderblight.
Description
The dream goddess can bring true, restful, sleep to all. Though those who experience her touch at not always the most willing, the goddess is not one to take no for an answer once she's been pointed at a target and her spiritual means are often quite difficult for some to resist. Though after a brief journey to the shrine of tranquility, and with a little help from the heroes sword, Vergil was able to free her from her gemstone prison and now with her freed from the gem the only thing he needs to wield the goddesses power now is a blue rock to remind him of her presence and their connection. Since obtaining Tranquility, he has obtained the ability to manifest this through his sword. Though he cannot do it when his vitality is damaged.
System
Choose an Animate target within 30 feet, Exert your Mind, and roll Charisma + Occult Difficulty 7 as a Committed Action. The target may contest with to dodge or Defend (as for an attack with a thrown weapon) as a Reaction. If you are successful, the target grows drowsy for 3 Rounds and then falls asleep for Outcome x 3 minutes. Unconscious or incapacitated targets cannot contest.
While drowsy, the target's Penalty is increased by 3 for all Actions.
The target falls into a deep sleep, but they may still be awoken by sudden loud noises, being jarred or splashed with water, taking damage, or similar rousing events. They will also awaken before dying of hunger, thirst, or suffocation.
