Legacy Power: Magic Missile

Look, all this pop culture stuff has a basis in reality.

A 2 Gift Injure Power used by Preston Vincent Astor III, created by ShadyTradesman.

Description

Whip out your wand, point it at your foe and shout "Magic missile!" A bolt of bright, cold, octarine light whizzes toward your target. It's very Harry Potter until the missile actually hits. Then things get gory.

System

Roll 3 dice as your attack, difficulty 6. Costs 1 exertion per shot, can be dodged/resisted. Range maxes out at 300 feet and ignores [[armor-piercing]] armor.

Enhancements

  • Cantrip (Activating this Effect has no Exertion cost, but it can have no more than 3 Drawbacks and its Gift Cost can never be increased above 2.)

Drawbacks

  • Focus (Using this Effect requires a specific kind of item.)
    • Object - A wand: a polished rod of metal or wood.

Parameters

Range: 2 ( 300 feet ) Damage: 2 ( 3 ) Armor Effectiveness: 0 ( Fully Effective )
