This Artifact grants you the power to temporarily incapacitate your enemies.
Created by Riley.
(When activating this Effect, it is obvious you are interacting with the target. You must use this Artifact obviously when activating this Effect.)

The shadow of the user's regret and shame, per the Maddening on Umbra's Spite, is cultivated and weaponized. It pools from the hands and infests the next shot in the chamber of the gun. It wraps around, subsumes, and completely coats the round until it's barely recognizable- only as a silhouette.

The bullet becomes so changed that it will no longer be capable of dealing considerable damage, but instead had become a darkbang. It shares the traits of a flashbang- discombobulating and stunning adversaries.

It blinds them with darkness instead of light and smoky black tendrils will manifest and effectively act as a spider web, making any actions more difficult for the target. Inhaling it produces a similar effect mentally- fogging up the target's mind.

Exert your Mind and spend an Action to activate. Select a Animate target within 300 feet. Make a Trauma roll when you activate this Effect. Roll Brawn + Alertness at Difficulty 7.

If you succeed, the target will suffer a dice penalty equal to the Outcome for the next 1 Round. Dice pools may be reduced all the way down to 0 by this penalty. This breaks Concentration.

After the Effect ends, the target will be at -1 dice to all actions and cannot move faster than a walk or Concentrate for the next minute.

You may only use this Effect once per day.

  • This Penalty is not removed if a character Exerts their Mind to ignore penalty.
  • If a character has a dice pool reduced to 0, they cannot attempt that action.
  • You can target yourself if you qualify as a valid target by the other requirements.
  • Your target must be within line of sight, or within range of another sense if more fitting for the Gift's flavor.
