Legacy Power: MIND BODY CHANGE TEQNIQUE

The ultimate technique.

A 1 Gift Possession Power created by Tranks_300.

Description

Swap bodies with an enemy.

System

Spend an Action, Exert your Mind, and roll [[attack-roll]] against a Living Sapient target no farther than Line of Sight, which they can resist by rolling [[resistance]] as a Free Action. Targets that are Incapacitated from Mind damage cannot resist. If you succeed, you possess the target for 1 round.

You may end the effect with a committed Action as long as you are within Line of Sight of your body.

During the possession, any rolls that use Brawn or Dexterity use the target's instead of your own. Likewise you assume their physical Assets and Liabilities instead of your own. You do not gain access to the target's Active Powers, memories or skills. You retain access to your Active Powers but not any Passive ones.

If the body you are possessing dies, you die immediately. If the the body you left behind dies, you die when your possession ends.

While possessing, if you take an action that violates the target's Limits or attempt self-harm, the target must make a Trauma roll. If they succeed, you are evicted from their body. Even if the roll fails, they may Exert their Mind to evict you.


Drawbacks

  • Sacrifice (Activating this Effect requires you to take a Severity-1 Injury instead of Exerting your Mind or spending a point of Source. This Injury heals in 1 day and cannot be prevented or prematurely healed by any means.)
  • Mage (Activating this Effect requires two consecutive Actions of Concentration. It involves intricate use of the body and voice. If interrupted during activation, the Effect fails. It is obvious you are preparing to activate an Effect during casting.)
    • Activation Ritual - Must place hands together and pray.
  • What's Wrong (Your inhabited body undergoes a physical and/or behavioral change for the duration of your possession that makes it obvious that something is seriously amiss.)
    • Indicator - Joint pain.
  • Mind Swap (You switch places with the target you’re possessing instead of simply leaving your body behind. You will be unable to use your original body's senses during this time.)

Parameters

Duration: 0 ( 1 round ) Range: 3 ( Line of Sight )
