You possess move incredibly fast.
Used by Mako, Created by NPboom.
( )

After enduring the hell of the contracts, Mako pushed the limits of how long he could maintain his burst of speed, and now has managed to build up his endurance to the point that he can now indefinitely sustain and control how fast he can be.

You gain the following benefits at all times.

You can run at four times your normal movement speed.

While running, you may climb, jump, and roll without breaking stride, but you are at 1/2 speed while doing so.

  • Any Encumbrance penalty to your movement still applies, but you do not suffer from any sort of exhaustion.
  • Damage from a collision depends on your speed at the time, as well as what you hit. GM's discretion, but generally moving faster than a car on the freeway and hitting a dense, solid object like a wall or a tree should be lethal. Mundane armor will not apply, but any supernatural forms of protection will.

David was running on a treadmill at his local gym, when suddenly he saw the vague form of a spiritual guide, one he recognized as the one who taught him how to summon his spiritual armor. Suddenly the treadmill began speeding up to speeds David didn't believe it could go, but instead of falling over, he regained his balance and began to run faster than he'd ever had before. David eventually got off the treadmill, gave his thanks to the spirt, and left the gym, ready to use his new gift.
