I.C.U

The power to place wards to monitor an area.
Used by Polamedes, Created by jumbohiggins.
(Anyone who witnesses you activate this Effect is very likely to be disturbed to see Polamedes copies and remove's his eye. The ward can be detected with a roll and destroyed through mundane means. You must actively and obviously be using A bundle of wires..)

Polamedes withdraws some small nanobots from inside his body and lets them crawl to the end of his finger and into his eye. They pull his eyelids apart and crawl under and over his eye taking measurements while doing so. After a few seconds they snip the retinal nerve and start forcing the eye out of the socket. A bloody eyeball will roll out carried by the nanobots, on the back part is a patchwork of wires and nerves. The Nanobots carry the eye to it's intended location and affix it using the trailing viscera. Afterwards Polamedes eyesocket begins to slowly buildup a new eye layer by layer until it's reformed.

Exert your Mind and spend an Action. Select a target within 10 feet. You must actively and obviously use A bundle of wires. to activate this Effect.

You place a ward, which is fixed to a target Object that can be moved and repositioned. You can hear and see through the ward as though you were standing at its location. You may have at most 3 wards running at once.

The ward requires Concentration to monitor, though it will remain active until you deactivate it. It can be detected with a roll and destroyed through mundane means.

You may communicate through your ward, though doing so will reveal its presence.

Anyone who witnesses you during this Effect's activation will almost certainly be disturbed to see Polamedes copies and remove's his eye.
