Collateral Damage

Micro Singularity

Associated Base Powers: Theme: Gravity Manipulation

Flavour Text

You cause a massive gravitational pull toward a single point nearby. So massive it does tend to take chunks of wall and pavement with it along with anything that isn’t nailed down. ...more

Mechanical Effect

Nameless NPCs in adjacent zones are instantly pulled into yours. Named NPCs and PCs must make a Physique roll against Good (+4) opposition or be pulled into your zone.

Earthing

Associated Base Powers: Theme: Energy Manipulation

Flavour Text

Your ability to manipulate energy includes being able to dump it all into the ground. It effectively shuts things down… but does tend to wreak havoc on things. ...more

Mechanical Effect

In your zone, energy related processes fail, from lights to radios to computers. Technological superpowers must overcome Fair (+2) opposition to be used. Lasts until the end of the scene or dismissed.

Flashburn

Associated Base Powers: Theme: Light Conduit (Mutant Only)

Flavour Text

You channel the Living Light at its brightest, harshest and most powerful. ...more

Mechanical Effect

Everyone in your zone must overcome a Great (+4) obstacle with Notice or Athletics or suffer 2 stress and have the aspect Blinded inflicted upon them.

Decay

Associated Base Powers: Theme: Corruption

Mechanical Effect

You can use your corruption to accelerate the natural decay of virtually everything in your zone. Living targets have some resistance and only take 2 physical stress, while inanimate targets are more adversely affected—virtually everything, including the walls and the floor, withers to dust.

Take Up Arms

Associated Base Powers: Theme: Technology

Mechanical Effect

You can pass off your equipment to someone else. By doing so, they can use your power in addition to their own, but you will be powerless for the duration. Of course, being unfamiliar and untrained with your equipment, they’ll likely cause a lot of collateral damage just trying to use it.

Hyper-Mode

Associated Base Powers: Theme: Super Form

Mechanical Effect

You are hiding an even more powerful transformation, one so powerful that the very act of transformation does damage to your environment, and which you can only hold on to for a few minutes at a time. While in hyper-mode, you can use special effects whenever you tie or succeed on a roll while using your power, in addition to when you succeed with style.

Shadow Beast

Associated Base Powers: Theme: Shadow Projection

Mechanical Effect

You can summon a creature made out of darkness itself into your zone. This shadow beast has Great (+4) Physique, Fight, and Athletics, as well as the aspects Made of Shadows and Bestial Fury. The beast is an NPC who will attack nearby targets at random, although characters can use Provoke to get it going after a particular target. It will not attack you; however, there’s nothing preventing it from attacking your allies. The beast will dissolve away at the end of the scene or when you dismiss it.

Blizzard

Associated Base Powers: Theme: Frost Projection

Mechanical Effect

You can dial down the temperature so quickly that snow forms in your zone and every adjacent zone. You can move through the snow without a problem, but to everyone else it’s a Fair (+2) obstacle that persists until the end of the scene.

Flaming

Associated Base Powers: Theme: Fire Projection

Mechanical Effect

You can surround yourself in flames that burn everything and everyone. Fires start near you, and anyone who touches you gets a mild physical consequence, or 1 physical stress if they don’t have the open slot. This effect lasts until the end of the scene, but you can end it at will.
