Blistering Retribution
FireDescrição
Whether they wield ki intentionally or instinctively through the act of breathing, all living things displace energy within their environment. When attacking, one's energy flows into the target. By making their ki volatile, a kihō user can create a burst of power whenever a foe's energy clashes with their own. The greater the energy directed toward the kihō user, the greater the force of their counterstrike.
Regras
- Ativação
As a Support action, you may make a TN 1 Meditation (Fire) check to empower your counterstrikes with ki.
- Efeito de aprimoramento
If you succeed, this kihō activates. While this kihō is active, after you defend against damage dealt by a character in the scene, you decrease the TN of your next Attack or Scheme action check targeting that character by half the amount of fatigue you received from defending against damage (rounded up). This cannot reduce the TN of your next Attack or Scheme action below 1.
- Efeito de explosão
If you have 3 or more bonus successes, the next time you defend against damage dealt by a character in the scene, each other character at range 0–2 of you suffers physical damage equal to your ranks in Fitness. This effect persists until the end of the scene.
