Description

You can shoot simple keylocks or padlocks with a gun, causing them to break and fall cleanly off, without any shrapnel flying about. The door may now be opened, and cannot be re-locked unless a new lock is installed.

System

No Exertion cost, but this power cannot be upgraded further. Spend an Action and shoot a lock with your gun to use this Power. The lock is no longer functional afterwards. Can only be used on standard key locks or padlocks. Use from up to Arm's Reach away.

Enhancements

Cantrip (Activating this Effect has no Exertion cost, but its Gift Cost can never be increased above 2.)
Once Only (If you successfully operate a lock, you may choose to destroy it, rendering it inoperable.)
Concealed (Using this Effect is not obvious. Choose a Tell that occurs only when you use the Effect; if-- and only if-- someone suspects that a Effect was used, they must roll Perception + Alertness, Difficulty 8 to pick up on your Tell.)

Drawbacks

Specialized (Only affects a certain type of Object.)
- Item Category - Standard key lock or padlock
Focus (Using this Effect requires a specific kind of item.)
- Object - Gun

Parameters

Range: 0 ( Arm's Reach )
