Legacy Power: Talaria

A little pick-me-up, courtesy of Kody Creighton.

A 1 Gift Super Leap Power used by Kody Creighton, created by lumiq.

Description

The power of Hephaestus forges Talaria once more! Jeremy Wesley commissioned Kody Creighton for these- masterfully made metal and leather shoes flowing with power, swirling, molten designs of fiery kinetic energy that allow Jeremy to leap into the air like the god who owns the original set. Million dollar shoes for a billion dollar man.

System

Spend an Action and Exert your Mind to jump to a Location within a maximum of [[jump-distance]].

Landing on horizontal surfaces is easy, but if the landing is precarious, you’ll need to make a Dexterity + Athletics roll to land/grab on safely. You can land safely when falling from twice your vertical height. After that amount, you take damage as normal.

If you are Encumbered, your range is halved. If you are too encumbered to walk, you cannot use this Ability.

Enhancements

  • Cantrip (Activating this Effect has no Exertion cost, but it can have no more than 3 Drawbacks and its Gift Cost can never be increased above 2.)
  • Too Slow! (You may activate this Effect as a Reaction.)

Drawbacks

  • Focus (Using this Effect requires a specific kind of item.)
  • Unique Focus (This Power takes the form of a specific, unique item, which can be borrowed, lost, or stolen. You must use / wear this item as intended to use this Power.)
    • Focus - Kody Creighton’s end of the deal

Parameters

Vertical Jump Distance (in feet): 1 ( 50 feet distance, 10 feet vertical )
