Legacy Power: Tentacle of the gods

Grabby

A 2 Gift Injure Power used by Gov. Tsu-Wang, created by Tranks_300.

Description

A Tentacle comes out of any hole of the caster.

System

Spend an Action, Exert your Mind, choose a target within 45 feet, and roll Brawn + Melee Difficulty 6. The target may defend by rolling Body, Difficulty 6 as a Free Action.

Damage dealt equals the difference between your attack roll's Outcome and the defensive roll's (if one was made), plus 3.The target's Armor is Reduced to 1/2, rounded up.

Enhancements

  • Cantrip (Activating this Effect has no Exertion cost, but its Gift Cost can never be increased above 2.)
  • Shredder (If you successfully hit your target, the value of any Armor they are wearing is reduced by 2. For material armor, this penalty lasts until it is repaired. For intrinsic armor, it lasts until the end of Combat and any relevant wound is healed.)

Drawbacks

  • Monstrous (Possessing this Power causes a mutation that elicits a strong, negative social response from the average person in your setting. The mutation is visible even if you are wearing long sleeves, pants, and shoes. Maximum one per Contractor.)
    • Mutation - tongue is a tentacle
  • Focus (Using this Effect requires a specific kind of item.)
    • Object - Octopus shard ring

Parameters

Range: 1 ( 45 feet ) Armor Effectiveness: 1 ( Reduced to 1/2, rounded up ) Damage: 2 ( 3 )
