Exert your Mind (unless Few feet in the air) and spend an Action to activate. Select a Location no further than 50 feet from you and in your line of sight. This Effect cannot be used unless Ethereal Wing on. You must actively and obviously use Bow to activate this Effect. The area within 20 feet of the chosen Location immediately and obviously becomes imminently dangerous. Roll Dexterity + Occult at Difficulty 6. Targets inside the radius may attempt an appropriate Reaction at GM’s discretion. Finding a physical barrier to use as cover will cut total damage taken in half (applies after Reaction roll but before Armor).

If the Outcome is positive, your blast hits everything within 20 feet of the chosen Location with Damage equal to your Outcome + 1. Armor is fully effective against this damage.

Anyone who takes damage from the blast is knocked back away from the target location by a distance equal to the radius. They must succeed a Body roll, Difficulty 9, or be stunned for 1 round.

  • You can target yourself if you qualify as a valid target by the other requirements.

You gain the following benefits as long as you are piloting any vehicle.

You receive +2 dice to any rolls to pilot a vehicle.

In an instant Cynthia begins to grow slightly in size. Her blood begins to run cold. Her skin sheds off as if she was molting and is replaced with reptilian scales. Her hair falls out leaving a bald, scaly, and pointed head in its wake. A tail begins to spurt out of her behind piercing her clothes. Her fingers and toes begins to grotesquely elongate into claws. Her eyes turn bright yellow and narrow as she molts. Her tounge grows long and her teeth large. The only thing human to remain is her coat, shirt, and pants which all strain to fit the reptilian form.

Exert your Mind and spend a Quick Action.

You transform into Lizard-Human for 3 minutes. You have access to all of your Powers while you are Lizard-Human, and you can use your equipment. Your Battle Scars, Injuries, and physical Liabilities are carried over between forms. Reverting from your Alternate Form cannot cause your existing Injuries to kill you. Instead, you remain Incapacitated.

While transformed, your Brawn is increased by 2. Your Stress is reduced by 2.

Your alternate form is its own deadly weapon. Unarmed attacks made in your alternate form deal +3 Weapon Damage (instead of the typical -1).

Your alternate form renders you unable to speak any human language and incapable of fine object manipulation. You can only hold or grasp objects in a crude, clumsy way.

  • Reminder: Weapon Damage from multiple sources does not stack. Instead, the highest value is used.

  • Hearing: You automatically know the origin location of any sound you hear, and you can tell which Action caused the sound.

Any senses which have been heightened cannot be overloaded. Battle Scars you receive cannot affect these senses.
