Legacy Power: The Long Arm of the Law

Even being brutally severed by vicious thugs couldn't stop the long arm of this lawman.

A 4 Gift Extra Appendage Power used by Bo Perkins, created by BobDylan530.

Description

Sheriff Perkins is able to maintain a psychic projection of an arm to replace his missing one. This arm is a translucent, glowing blue limb which appears more like a tentacle than an arm, particularly at the tip as there are no defined fingers, and stretches to reach much farther than a normal arm. Sinuous blue veins snake up and entwine the remaining human upper arm, glowing just like the rest of limb, causing Perkins to constantly emit an LED-esque light.

System

Passive, always in effect. Your missing arm is replaced by a glowing blue phantom limb. It has no defined fingers and cannot manipulate small or complicated objects, but it has an extra 30 feet of reach and can become selectively incorporeal, reaching through walls or ignoring grapples. Attacks on it will not cause Injury to you, and if it is somehow destroyed it will regrow during Downtime.


Enhancements

  • Phantom Limb (Your appendage is selectively incorporeal, allowing you to reach through walls or ignore grapples on it.)
  • Synthetic (Your extra appendage is not connected to your nervous or circulatory systems, and you will not take damage if it is hit by an attack or destroyed.)
  • Sticky Grip (You may dedicate your extra Quick Action to contest any attempt to escape your Grapples. If you do so, you roll your full dice pool to contest and retain your Action to do anything that does not target the subject of your Grapple.)
  • Reach (Your appendages have 30 feet of reach.)

Drawbacks

  • Stumpy (Your Extra Appendage is incapable of fine object manipulation.)
  • Monstrous (Possessing this Power causes a mutation that elicits a strong, negative social response from the average person in your setting. The mutation is visible even if you are wearing long sleeves, pants, and shoes. Maximum one per Contractor.)
    • Mutation - Bo's left arm is translucent and glows with a soft blue light constantly.
