[FOCI]

Wants to Be Adored

Unmasked

Your mask-form is seductive in look, action, or speech, and sometimes all three. People like you. Those attracted to forms like yours love you. You wield this charm like a weapon, cutting through relationships and rules like a samurai cuts through enemies.

Additional Equipment

You usually dress well, or at least with enough fashion sense that you can bully others into admiring such bold choices. Assume you're always dressed in some amazing fashion (this need not be attractive, but it's always striking).

Minor Effect Suggestion

Your foe, once free of your abilities, hates you and will do their best to ruin your day.

Major Effect Suggestion

Your foe becomes obsessed with you (in a good or bad way) and will do their best to track you down and enact their plans.

Tier 1

Stink Eye (1 Intellect point) Action

You can fix a person in proximity to you with a look that has one of several effects.

Tier 2

End of Line (4 Intellect points) Action

With a single word, you can remove the ability of a person to speak except for the last word they uttered, over and over again. For example, if someone shouted, "Look out!" and was hit by this ability, they would be able to say only, "Out! Out! Out!" This effect can be removed by you with a single word, or it naturally expires in 24 hours.

Tier 3

I'll Be Back (6 Intellect points) Action

You ingratiate yourself to one person with small talk, and convince them that no matter what you're doing (and just you), it's important and completely legal, and you'll be backto fix things up shortly. The target believes this wholeheartedly until they are attacked, or until you attack someone else in their presence or are out of their presence for more than an hour. Otherwise, no matter how strange it seems, you and your actions are just A-OK with the target. You're an amazing person.

Tier 4

Just Do It (5 Intellect points) Action

By shouting a single word of command directly at a person of level 4 or below, you can cause them to take a single, brief action without thinking about it. This does include injuring themselves or allies, but not prolonged violence. For instance, you could cause a guard to shoot himself in the foot, but not attack everyone in the room.

Tier 5

EVERYBODY! (6 Intellect points) Action

You can shout in such a manner that it gains the attention of all the people you wish it to within 1,000 feet (300 m). All who hear the shout lose an action, goggling at the speaker. For the next five rounds, the difficulty of all attacks against them is reduced by one step as they shake off the distraction.

Tier 6

My Buddy (10 Intellect points) Action

Through small talk, you form a bond with a single person. While the bond lasts, they believe they are your best friend. If given good reasons by you, they will perform nearly any action for you, including an act of violence, but you must provide the GM an explanation of how you attempt to convince them to do so. If they are predisposed to such actions, it takes less cajoling to get them to do it. This effect lasts until they lose sight of you, suffer 3 or more points of damage (or move down the damage track), or suffer any significant trauma. The ability can never convince them to physically harm loved ones, though it may make them lie, cheat, or steal from them.

GM Intrusions: You remove your mask due to exhaustion, and former false allies immediately take it out on your teen-form. You remove your mask due to exhaustion, and someone begins to piece together that your powers are responsible for various oddities in the town.
