Legacy Power: Mind Shatter

"Easy."

A 2 Gift Traumatize Power used by Emanuel Baxter, created by BoringIndividual.

Description

The user stares at a target within 20 feet. As he stares, a space 1 foot in front of his face seems to solidify into a glass pane. This pane suddenly shatters, leaving shards broken glass in the air, and is it shatters, the targets mind will shatter as well. The pieces then merge back into the air, as if they were never there in the first place.

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

  • Induce Panic (Make a Difficulty 6 roll when you activate this Power and use the target's Trauma roll to resist. If your contested Outcome is positive, the target takes that much Mind damage. They receive a new Trauma if and only if you deal at least 3 Mind damage.)
    • Chosen Roll - Cha + influence

  • Right in the Childhood (The defender's Trauma roll is made at -3 dice.)

Drawbacks

  • Focus (Using this Effect requires a specific kind of item.)
    • Object - A pair of glasses

Parameters

Range: 1 ( 20 feet )
