Legacy Power: Aura Link Detection

See power as it is used

A 2 Gift Detect Beings Power used by Viper, created by Iamangelofwar.

Description

All beings with heavy supernatural energies flowing through them are bound to them, able to see them in ways most humans and mundane creatures can't. You can see those that target your powerful aura, and it shoots back into theirs, tangling them in your grasp, granted they stay in reach. While tangled this way, you can see the forces radiating from them, and them you, until either break the grasp by escaping range. You may even occasionally pick up magics not targeting yourself if your senses are keen enough. Though, it is unrefined, and requires something to concentrate the abilities...

System

Spend an Action and Exert your Mind to activate this Power for one minute. While this Power is active, all Beings using supernatural abilities within 50 feet are detected, including those who enter its range after activation and those behind walls. You get a rough sense of how many, but not exact number.

Enhancements

  • Catch a Whiff (If none of a specified type of target are within range, and then one enters range, you automatically detect it, even if this Effect is not active.)
  • GPS (Provides you with both distance and direction toward the detected beings. This information is accurate enough to use for aiming at a +1 Difficulty.)
  • 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 being targeted with a supernatural ability

Drawbacks

  • Focus (Using this Effect requires a specific kind of item.)
    • Object - A piece of neckwear featuring a Celtic Knot
  • Double-Edged Sword (You are affected by this Power to the same extent as your target.)

Parameters

Range: 0 ( 50 feet )
