Legacy Power: Nudibranch Skin

The superior molluskan evolutionary path

A 2 Gift Injure Power used by Tori McOlson, created by lumiq.

Description

Tori downs a vial like a shot. Cnidocytes, jellyfish stinger cells, go down her throat and she exerts her mind to have them digest quickly and come out through her skin like a nudibranch.

Feeling useless after turtling (sea turtling?) for multiple games, Tori altered her formula to be able to shoot the stinger cells out like noodle-y, fleshy tentacles from her arms. They attach to the target like taser wires, and the stingers stick as she retracts the disgusting little tendrils.

Plus 3 damage, armor is half effective.

System

Spend an Action, Exert your Mind, choose a target within 45 feet, and roll Dexterity + Science Difficulty 6. The target may defend by rolling to dodge or Defend (as for an attack with a thrown weapon) as a Reaction.

Damage dealt equals the difference between your attack roll's Outcome and the defensive roll's (if one was made), plus 3.The target's Armor is Fully Effective.


Enhancements

  • Accursed Wounds (Any Injury inflicted is considered Unstabilized no matter its Severity. The roll required to Stabilize it is treated as though it is a minimum of Severity 6. These wounds do not heal naturally, though Effects may still be used to heal them.)
  • Painful (The target suffers a -3 dice penalty for the next hour or until the Injury is healed. This dice penalty does not stack multiple times on the same target.)
  • That's Gonna Leave A Mark (If the target suffers an Injury from this Effect, they will receive at least a Minor Battle Scar regardless of its Severity. When this Effect causes a Battle Scar, you may select which one of the appropriate level.)

Drawbacks

  • Focus (Using this Effect requires a specific kind of item.)
    • Object - Cnidocyte vials

Parameters

Range: 1 ( 45 feet ) Armor Effectiveness: 0 ( Fully Effective ) Damage: 2 ( 3 )
