Legacy Power: YOU SHALL NOT PASS!!!

"Mine is actually better than Gandalf's in a few ways."

A 3 Gift Push / Pull Power used by Preston Vincent Astor III, created by ShadyTradesman.

Description

Preston withdraws his staff, spins it above his head and shouts "YOU SHALL NOT PASS!" before driving it into the ground. A visible shockwave eminates from the point of contact, and all creatures he determines are ejected from the area and cannot approach. He may move slowly with the staff or leave it in position.

System

Exert your Mind, choose an Animate target, and roll Charisma + Occult Difficulty 6 as a Committed Action, which the target can resist by rolling Mind, Difficulty 6 as a Free Action. Success prevents the target from approaching within 45 feet of you for 1 Minute. A tie cuts the target's move speed in half while moving towards you within 45 feet for the same amount of time.

This Power requires continuous Concentration to maintain. You may only move at walking speed while concentrating, and any significant interruption (such as taking damage or being grappled) will break the effect.

Enhancements

  • Repulsion Field (This Power now affects all targets within [[range]] of you, including those that enter the area after the initial activation.)
  • Magnetic Field (All Animate targets within half the normal range are pushed or pulled.)
  • Exclude (You may choose to exclude up to two targets from this Effect.)
  • Safe Zone (Instead of always centering on you, your repulsion field is attached to an object or fixed location that is not tied to you.)

Drawbacks

  • Focus (Using this Effect requires a specific kind of item.)
    • Object - A staff
  • Biased (Only affects a specific type of being. For example, undead creatures, animals, or mundane humans.)
    • Type of Being - Monsters
  • Draining (After this Effect ends, you cannot move quicker than a walk (15 feet per Round) for one minute and suffer a -1 dice penalty for an hour.)

Parameters

Range: 1 ( 45 feet ) Duration: 1 ( 1 Minute )
