Body Control

Body Control (Major) by Mr. Twist

This is similar to Control (Others), but instead of controlling the mind of someone you control the body. The mind stays conscious and perfectly aware of what is going on.

Range: 10ft +3ft per level. This is for initial control. After control is established, the person can be controlled from up to 50ft +10ft per level.

Duration: 3 minutes per level of experience.

1. Eye contact is required for the initial control attempt.

2. Attempting to use this power requires 1 attack, and continued use causes these penalties to the super being: APM is reduced to 2 attacks once control is established. -3 to strike, -4 to parry, dodge, and initiative. -35% on all skill performance due to concentration.

3. The person controlled suffers from the same penalties as the controller. So, in effect, the controller has 2 attacks for his own use, and 2 attacks they can force the controlled being to do.

4. Saving against this attack is as follows:

Animals(not including insects, which can't be controlled) - 18

Non-Psionic people(and aliens, mutants, etc...) - 15

Psionic - 12

5. Save vs. psionics can't be used to help this, but mind control/possession bonuses can.

6. If forced to kill themselves or a loved one, the affected gets another save immediately, but at a -2. Once you're controlled, it's hard to break free. This is the dangerous part, since it does not suffer from the limitations of mind control.

Note:

This can be used to immobilize a foe.

Using this power is generally considered a very evil act, as the affected being is totally aware of what's going on.

Using this on a psychic character is dangerous, as they can use their abilities in this state. For this purpose, they have all their normal attacks, usable only for psionic abilities.

Although the super being can direct the affected to do whatever is needed, they cannot see through their eyes. Therefore, most things require the super to actually see what's going on to properly direct their puppet
