Dust Devil Whispering

1
The power to summon a minion which can fight and act on your behalf.
Used by Elizabeth "Liz" Tran, Created by ShadyTradesman.
(When activating this Effect, it is obvious that you are creating a minion in some way. )

Liz takes a deep breath and whispers a phrase in Navajo. A swirling whirlwind sweeps from he rmouth, whirling around flinging debris at random. It can be dissipated with enough force.


Exert your Mind and spend an Action to activate.

Summon a single dust devil at your location. They will last for an hour, or until they are destroyed. They are controlled by the GM and will not necessarily obey your commands. You may have at most 1 minion active at a time.

Minions have 4 Body and can make ranged attacks at targets up to 30 feet away with 5 dice to attack and +1 Damage. Your minions can move 20 feet per Round as Free Movement, and double that when performing an all-out Sprint. They cannot dodge or Defend. They have dog-level intelligence, and cannot communicate back to you. Any Perception checks they make are rolled with 3 dice.
