(Anyone who witnesses you activate this Effect is very likely to be disturbed to see The image of medusa appears in his eyes, snakes coming out of his eyes and turning anyone who is looking at him to stone. You must actively and obviously be using Must be wearing glasses to not be petrified himself..)

The user presses a button on his glasses and petrifies anyone around the person he is looking at. (reduces dice pools to zero)

Spend an Action. Select a Location within 300 feet. You must actively and obviously use Must be wearing glasses to not be petrified himself. to activate this Effect. Roll Perception + Alertness at Difficulty 6. All targets within 20 feet of the chosen Location may contest by Defending or Dodging.

If you succeed, all affected targets will be restricted at their location by a physical, tangible binding. They cannot move to a new location, and any physical actions they take suffer a dice penalty equal to twice the Contested Outcome (except attempts to escape or break the binding, which only suffer half this penalty).

Restricted targets may escape their binding by spending an Action and taking a Severity-1 Injury. Their movement is reduced by 10 feet until the Injury heals.

Anyone who witnesses you during this Effect's activation will almost certainly be disturbed to see The image of medusa appears in his eyes, snakes coming out of his eyes and turning anyone who is looking at him to stone.

This Gift's Cost is capped at 2 and cannot be increased further.

You must retain Concentration to keep up the effect; if your Concentration is interrupted, the effect will end.

  • You can target yourself if you qualify as a valid target by the other requirements.
  • Your target must be within line of sight, or within range of another sense if more fitting for the Gift's flavor.

Exert your Mind (unless you win a coin flip) and spend an Action. Select a target within 45 feet. You must actively and obviously use vines to activate this Effect. Roll Brawn + Alertness at Difficulty 6. The target may contest by Defending or Dodging.

If you succeed, your target will be pushed or pulled towards a surface within 45 feet and is restricted at that location by a physical, tangible binding. They cannot move to a new location, and, if your Contested Outcome was greater than their Brawn, they are encased and cannot take any physical Actions other than attempting to escape until they break free.

The target may spend an Action and roll Brawn or Dexterity + Athletics to attempt to break free. They must accumulate a total Outcome equal to or greater than the original Contested Outcome to escape. Damage to the binding from outside sources also contributes.

You may use this Effect as a Reaction to contest any physical Action a target is taking. Excess Outcome does not restrict the target. This interrupts Concentration.

If your target does not escape within 3 Rounds, they cannot ever free themselves and must be rescued.

If the Contested Outcome of your activation roll is 4 or higher, the activation cost of this Effect is refunded.
