Seeping Ki
WaterDescrição
Manipulation of the energy within one's own body is only one application of the techniques called kihō - by aligning one's energy to that of another living being, some kihō users can spread their ki to also manipulate the energy within others' bodies. While this control rarely exceeds the unexpected jerking of a few muscles before the target's own ki reasserts itself, even a moment of control over another living creature can be devastating in a fight, forcing them to strike at an ally, leap back to create an opening, or fall to the ground at an opportune moment.
Regras
- Ativação
As an Attack and Support action, you may make a TN 3 Meditation (Water) check to imbue your touch with spreading ki.
- Efeito de aprimoramento
If you succeed, this kihō activates. While this kihō is active, after you succeed at an Attack action check using an unarmed profile, one of your targets receives strife equal to your ranks in Medicine. If this causes the character to become Compromised, they must immediately resist with a TN 4 Meditation (Fire 5, Earth 2) check. If they fail, on their next turn, the character must unmask in one of the following ways of your choice:
Move away from you
Perform a Strike action targeting one of their allies
Drop an item they are holding
Another effect determined by you and the GM.
If their action requires a check, you choose which dice the character keeps and which ones they drop. If the character is a Minion NPC, they automatically count as failing the Meditation check to resist.
- Efeito de explosão
If you have two or more bonus successes, the next time you succeed on an Attack action check using an unarmed profile, your target suffers the Bleeding condition. This effect persists until the end of your next turn.
