Legacy Power: Imperial Bearing

"Friends - I tell you truly, from the bottom of my heart - these people, while diffrent from you, mean you no harm!"

A 4 Gift Mythic Charisma Power used by Issac Norton II, created by Strazhari.

Description

The day Joshua Norton the First died, there was a funeral procession over two miles long, & the day was marked by a total eclipse of the sun. Now, a new Emperor has risen to unite & heal the divides of America - Emperor Issac Norton the II (formerly Issac Neuman). When wearing the iconic attire associated with the role, Issac presents a commanding yet comforting presence. While the media & the shareholders that watched his profitable start up tank say he is mad, no one can doubt the conviction behind his eyes:

The Emperor has come to save us from ourselves.

System

Passive, always in effect. Your Charisma rating is increased by 1. You may Exert your Mind to automatically gain an Outcome of 5 on any roll that uses Charisma (cannot be used on combat rolls or Power activations).

A given Contractor may have a maximum of one Mythic Attribute. This Power can only be taken by Contractors who have purchased the fifth level of Charisma.


Enhancements

  • Honest Eyes (Your word is accepted as honest so long as you are speaking the truth as you understand it. You can always tell if someone telling a lie without making a roll, though you may not know what they are concealing.)
  • Party Animal (You are welcome at, and will be granted entrance to, any social gathering or party, at least as an observer.)

Drawbacks

  • Samson (A marking or physical trait is the source of your power. Losing it removes all benefits for the next 2 months. If someone witnesses you using this Effect, they get a Perception check to determine the source of your power.)
    • Source of your Power - Imperial Regalia
  • The Price of Fame (Any sightings or recordings of your activity can easily be traced back to you. Even when disguised or using an alias, people always get a Perception check to recognize you.)

Parameters

Extra Charisma: 0 ( 1 )
