The Walking Mists "They just seem to follow me..."

1
The power to create an environmental hazard.
Used by Elizabeth Ember, Created by Polymorph.
(During activation, it is obvious the environmental effect is issuing forth from you. You must actively and obviously be using a small vial containing the mists of the mist house.)

The mists begin to raise out of the ground, curling around Elizabeth's legs before spreading out, settling in the area. The fogs intensify, and in a blink, you can only see ahead of your nose.

Elizabeth, one of the mistwalkers, is favoured by them. They never fully block her vision, although it is harder to see.

Spend an Action. You must actively and obviously use a small vial containing the mists of the mist house to activate this Effect.

You create a hemispherical dome of mist and fog originating at your Location, with a radius of 60 feet. and lasting for 5 minutes. While active, you are always fully affected by your zone as if you were standing in it. The area inside your zone is affected in the following ways:

  • Suppressed Vision: The zone is fully blocked from view. Nothing within the zone may see anything or be seen from the outside. Any rolls that rely on sight fail automatically, and any rolls that benefit from sight are made at -3 dice.
The zone expands immediately to its full size from the chosen Location, but will be stopped from spreading in a particular direction by any barriers or cover, and can only fit through openings large enough to fit a grown adult. If a new opening appears while the Effect is still active, it will finish spreading in that direction.

Your zone blends with the environment, seeming to arise naturally from local effects. Observers who roll Perception + Alertness and achieve an Outcome 4 or higher notice that it is unnatural.

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

Possession of this Power grants the following Trauma at all times: .

  • The Effect does not follow you after you activate it.
  • If you select a location at the edge of your range, you will be just outside the zone once the Effect is activated
  • 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.
