Michael’s boon Exodus 15:1-4, ‘The Lord is my strength and my defense’.

1
You possess superhuman strength and toughness.
Used by Lucius (strákur) Emmanuel Jóhannesson, Created by mmmsquid.
( Your Michael’s hand painted pasta charm must be used or obviously visible while you are actively benefitting from this effect.)

Upon gripping the messily hand-painted, bracelet of pasta, created by Michael, Lucius feels strengthened by the presence of Michael, and is able to push his small body even further.

You gain the following benefits as long as you have your Michael’s hand painted pasta charm.

Your Brawn rating is increased by 1. You may Exert your Mind to automatically gain an Outcome of 5 on any roll that uses Brawn (cannot be used on combat rolls or Effect activations).

If you are witnessed actively using this Effect, whoever sees it can make a Perception + Alertness roll at Difficulty 6. A complete success reveals the source of your power.

You also gain the following effects:

  • Heavy Hitter: Successful attacks made with Brawn will either knock your target back Outcome x 5 feet, or knock them down to the ground. Choose which effect the attack will have prior to rolling for it.

  • If your Michael’s hand painted pasta charm is damaged, destroyed, or lost, you lose all benefits from this Effect for the next two months, or until you can recover any relevant missing items (which may involve a side-game and requires a GM to approve whatever process is used).
