Legacy Power: 'Hell'ographic Projection

...because some people deserve to feel bad.

A 1 Gift Traumatize Power used by Janus the Marked, created by sirreality.

Description

By locking eyes with a target, Janus uses his bionic implant and knowledge of future atrocities to holographically project a series of rapidly cycling traumatic images to the targets retina. The source, target, and nature of the attack are obvious to anyone observing, visible as a rapidly pulsing laser connecting their eyes.

System

Choose a target within 20 feet and Exert your Mind. Roll Intelligence + Medicine. Your target must make a Trauma roll (Mind, Difficulty 8+2=10) to resist. They take mind damage equal to the outcome. If they take 3 or more Mind damage, they acquire a new Trauma, limited to some form of PTSD, chosen by the GM. This Trauma may be removed by Powers or mundane therapy as per the normal rules.

Your target must be looking at you and not incapacitated, and is aware that they are being attacked by you.


Enhancements

  • Soul Twist (The target loses your Contested Outcome in Source. Once their Source is depleted, excess Outcome is applied as Mind Damage. They receive a new Trauma if and only if you deal at least 3 Mind damage.)
    • None - Intelligence + Medicine

  • Right in the Childhood (The defender's Trauma roll is made at -3 dice.)

Drawbacks

  • Out of Control (Traumas caused by this Effect are selected by the GM according to its flavor and circumstances, not by you.)
    • None - PTSD
  • Conditional (This Effect is only available when a certain condition is met. This condition must be severe enough that this Gift is unusable the majority of the time.)
    • Condition - Must lock eyes with target.

Parameters

Range: 1 ( 20 feet )
