Laz fires a small nanite projectile from his wrist at the target, staring intently at the target as they begin to grow drowsy. While he continues to hold his hand toward them almost as if he's turning them off by sheer will. The target will feel a jolt as his skin makes contact, and a spreading feeling of warmth and relaxation, until they suddenly realize their joints and muscles no longer respond.
This projectile delivers several dozen individual nanites which immediately begin releasing microdoses of sedatives as they head to the nearest nerve cluster. Once they achieve nervous system access, they use electrical impulses to arrest the target's muscular control, leaving them unable to do much besides breathe and blink for as long as Laz maintains mental control. Once released, they deactivate and are ultimately flushed from the body by the kidneys.

If you succeed, your target becomes drowsy for the next 30 seconds, during which time they suffer an additional -2 dice Penalty to all Actions. At the end of their drowsiness, they fall into a state of sleep paralysis as long as you maintain Concentration. During this time, they remain fully conscious and aware of their surroundings but are incapable of taking any actions.
Sleeping targets will not prematurely wake up on their own, but may still be woken up by sudden loud noises, being jarred or splashed with water, taking Damage, or similar rousing events. They will also awaken before dying of hunger, thirst, or suffocation. Drowsy targets always fall asleep, regardless of what happens while they are drowsy.
When activating this Effect you may attempt a knockout. If you do and your Contested Outcome exceeds 4, the target falls asleep immediately. Otherwise, they suffer the drowsy penalty for 2 Rounds.
When an affected target wakes up, they remain drowsy for the next minute, and suffer a -3 dice penalty. If an affected target successfully resists being put to sleep, they will still become drowsy for the next minute, and will suffer the same penalty.
