Legacy Power: Reverse Armor

The Mirror Attack

A 1 Gift Barrier Power used by Brigwain, created by ignohamez.

Description

When ever Brigwain get's attacked, his armor glints with a red glow and takes in the blow to reflect it back onto the attacker. Although this power is only usable when Brigwain is wearing or holding his armor. Also he can only use this power to target himself.

System

Exert your Mind, choose an Animate target within Arm's Reach, and roll Brawn + Athletics Difficulty 6 as a Committed Action. If you succeed, the next Outcome + 1 Damage to that target is absorbed by the barrier. The Damage reduction from the Barrier applies before Armor, and is treated like Armor by any effects such as Armor Penetration.

You must maintain concentration while using this Power. That means you can only move at a slow walk, and cannot split your Action between using the Power and other Actions. The Barrier will fall if you are interrupted or if it absorbs the full amount of damage. When a Barrier falls, you cannot use this power again for a minimum of 6 - Intellect rounds.


Enhancements

  • Reflect (Any Damage absorbed by the barrier is reflected back to the attacker, up to a maximum of the Barrier Strength Parameter’s bonus. Their Armor applies in full.)
  • Triggered (You cannot manually activate this Effect. Instead, choose a triggering event, always outside your control, that activates this Effect without requiring an Action or Exertion cost from you.)
    • Triggering Event - When ever attacked

Drawbacks

  • Selfless (You cannot target yourself.)
  • Unique Focus (This Power takes the form of a specific, unique item, which can be borrowed, lost, or stolen.)
    • Focus - Brigwain's Armor

Parameters

Barrier Strength: 1 ( Outcome + 1 ) Range: 0 ( Arm's Reach )
