A 4 Gift Traumatize Power used by Grace Cyanide, created by lumiq.
Description
The Spirit inhabits Graceโs mind and body. Their most devastating attack when successful, traumatization, takes effect when The Spirit recalls memories of her brutal burning and terrifying burial. She projects it into the mind of the target; the tortured screeches, whines, yowls, and groans of each member of Graceโs head follows the heat, the claustrophobia, and the darkness into their head with a force enough to shatter. What will it be? Your new fearโ fire, accusations, tight spaces? Or maybe, if youโre smarter, Grace and her dead child menagerie themselves.
System
Choose a Sapient target within 20 feet and Exert your Mind. Your target must make a Trauma roll (Mind, Difficulty 8). If they fail, they acquire a new Trauma, chosen by the GM, and take 1 point of Mind damage. This Trauma may be removed by Powers or mundane therapy as per the normal rules.
Your target is aware that they are being attacked and can usually determine you are the one doing it. (Generally, this is folded into the Power's flavor and Description.)
If your target is incapacitated, they automatically fail their Trauma roll.
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 (mind power) + Influence (how potent are the visions)
-
- Mind Doctor (You have some say over the nature of the Trauma caused)
- Right in the Childhood (The defender's Trauma roll is made at -3 dice.)
Drawbacks
-
Monstrous
(Possessing this Power causes a mutation that elicits a strong, negative social response from the average person in your setting. The mutation is visible even if you are wearing long sleeves, pants, and shoes. Maximum one per Contractor.)
- Mutation - The Spirit that gives Grace this power constantly overlaps her form. Sunken eyes, floating hair, bare feet, and a once-white nightgown now burnt and dirtied, with the flames still alight beneath the fabric.
