Water Fountain! "Take that!"

2
The power to cause a destructive blast of damage in an area.
Used by Mariana Nautica, Created by CreepKit.
(This Effect is obviously Alien when used. Both the source of the effect, as well as the danger zone it creates, are obvious to observers. )

Mariana summons a giant water fountain that engulfs her enemies.

Exert your Mind and spend an Action. Select a Location within 40 feet. The area within 25 feet of the chosen Location immediately and obviously becomes imminently dangerous. Anyone in the area has 1 Round to attempt to escape. During the next Round, on your Initiative, roll Perception + Performance at Difficulty 6.

If the Outcome is positive, your blast hits everything within 25 feet of the chosen Location with Damage equal to your Outcome + 4.

If you successfully hit your target, the value of any Armor they are wearing is reduced by 2. For material armor, this penalty lasts until it is repaired. For intrinsic armor, it lasts until the end of Combat and any relevant wound is healed.

  • You can target yourself if you qualify as a valid target by the other requirements.
  • Your target must be within line of sight, or within range of another sense if more fitting for the Gift's flavor.

Community Blast Gifts

Exert your Mind and spend 30 seconds to trap a region of any shape that contains your current location and fits entirely no further than 40 feet from you and in your line of sight. This trap lasts one day or until triggered or disarmed. You must actively and obviously use staff to activate this Effect. The area within 25 feet of the trap immediately and obviously becomes imminently dangerous. Anyone in the area has 1 Round to attempt to escape. Roll Intellect + Occult at Difficulty 6. Record your Outcome to use when the trap is triggered.

The trap looks like ITS NOT A FUCKING TRAP ITS A SPELL I CAST IT. It can only be spotted as a trap by those with preexisting knowledge of such traps. Anyone who is aware of the trap may intuitively avoid, trigger, or destroy it.

Any target

If the Outcome is positive, your blast hits everything within 25 feet of the trap with Damage equal to your Outcome + 4. Armor is fully effective against this damage.

Damage spreads to targets beyond the edge of the initial radius, decreasing by 2 Damage for every 5 feet traveled.

  • Multiple traps cannot be placed in the exact same location or be triggered by the same single Action. Nor can one trap triggering cause another to trigger.
  • Trap can only be spotted by someone who has witnessed this particular trap before, has been informed, or possesses relevant supernatural abilities.
  • The area you choose where the trap can be triggered may be just a single location, similar to a tripwire or a pressure plate, or it can be a proximity trigger which hits anyone who comes within the specified range of the trap. This is defined by you when you place the trap and cannot be changed once the trap is placed.

If the Outcome is positive, your blast hits everything within 25 feet of the chosen Location with Damage equal to your Outcome + 2.

Damage spreads to targets beyond the edge of the initial radius, decreasing by 2 Damage for every 5 feet traveled. For the next 3 Rounds following the initial blast, this Effect will deal a new blast of damage to any targets remaining within range of the chosen Location. The damage decays by 2 each Round.

Any flammable Objects within the radius during the blast will catch fire, and any being who takes at least 4 Damage will catch fire. Starting the Round after they caught fire, flaming targets take 2 Damage per Round until the fire is extinguished.

  • Any visual cues from the initial blast which indicate imminent danger will remain in place during the following three waves of new blasts.
  • You can target yourself if you qualify as a valid target by the other requirements.
  • Your target must be within line of sight, or within range of another sense if more fitting for the Gift's flavor.
