Legacy Power: Spirit animal

"Come, Misha."

A 2 Gift Restrict Power used by Nickolai Borisovich Tarasov, created by therustyy257.

Description

Nickolai uses all of his might to clap his hands together, with enough force to send a shock wave traveling throughout his entire body, hurting him in the process.
As his monstrous metallic arms make contact with one another, a cacophonous screech of metal fills the room, followed by a mighty roar coming from Nickolai himself, the roar is that of an enraged bear. NIckolai puts all of his willpower into that singular roar.

Following the first roar, another one resounds as if in response, but it'll be coming from behind the target of Nickolai's ire, as a giant semi transparent brown bear comes out of thin air, and restrain the targets legs.

System

Spend an Action, Exert your Mind, and roll Brawn + Brawl Difficulty 6 to Restrict a target within 20 feet. The target may contest this by rolling Body, Difficulty 6 as a Free Action. Success fixes the target in place at their location, although they still can move their arms, use Powers, etc.

The target may attempt to break free by making an attack against their bonds at +1 difficulty. Breaking the binding requires an amount of damage equal to double the initial Outcome. Damage from multiple attacks is cumulative and stacks linearly. Other individuals may also damage the binding by attacking it at +1 difficulty.


Enhancements

  • Persistent Binding (Unless the binding is fully escaped, the remaining amount of damage needed to escape increases by 1 per round, up to a limit of the initial Outcome + 3.)
  • 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.)

Drawbacks

  • Sacrifice (Instead of Exerting your Mind or expending Source, activating this Effect gives a Severity-1 Injury that worsens by 1 Severity each time you use an Effect with Sacrifice. This Injury cannot be prevented by any means or healed before 1 day has passed.)
  • Traumatic (You must make a Trauma roll when you use this Effect. Its Difficulty cannot be reduced by any means. If you fail or Botch, you receive one Mind Damage and a new Trauma.)
  • Slow Crawl (Instead of being fixed in place, the target is able to crawl at 1/4th of their normal move speed.)

Parameters

Range: 1 ( 20 feet )
