Candyman
Candyman (Major) by Stone Gargoyle
"The candy man can!"
The superbeing can alter the molecular strands within objects to alter them into their candy equivalents.
1. Sugar Crystallization: The superbeing breaks down molecular structures and replaces chemical interactions and compounds with ones that are more edible and tasty. This requires a Chemistry roll, but gains +20% to accomplish if the chemistry skill is possessed, or can make the roll at the base skill if not possessed. A failed roll means the structure is still broken down but is not really edible and tastes awful.
- Effects:
- Reduces Object AR by 2, plus 1 at levels 3, 6, 9, 12 and 15.
- Object SDC reduced to 30% of normal
- Object will take double damage from fluids
- Object will shatter on a successful Critical Strike of 17-20
- Amount Affected: Can affect 50 lbs per level per touch.
- Range: Touch
- Attacks: Each touch uses one melee attack action, though he can hold an object and affect its total weight, just subtracting from attacks/actions at the end of the round, taking half the time involved if waiting for normal turn rotation.
- Limitations: Can only affect solid matter of an inorganic variety.
2. Mixed Drink: The hero can touch water and other liquids and change it to chocolate milk, fruit punch, etc., using a Chemistry roll as above. A failed roll means the liquid becomes poisonous and will require anyone ingesting it to make a saving throw vs. Non-Lethal poison (16 or better, PE bonus applies) or suffer nausea, fever, severe stomach cramps and vomiting. The superbeing can choose to fail Chemistry roll on purpose.
- Amount Affected: 50 gallons per touch.
- Attacks: Uses 2 melee attacks/actions per touch.
- Penalties: -2 melee attacks/actions, no initiative, -2 to strike, parry and dodge, -25% to skill performance, and reduce speed by 30%. Duration is only 2d4 melee rounds.
3. Candy Constructs: The superbeing gains a bonus of +20% to carpentry and construction skills when making structures from candy or objects created using the Sugar Crystallization ability (above). The her can cause the candy structures to fuse on a molecular level. This is done without using the normal methods of welding, rivets, nails, etc., and causes the objects to be merged. Items of less than six inches can be fused on a single action. Larger objects can be fused together up to a length of his ME number in feet, plus 1 foot per level. The pieces must be side by side or joined closely for this to work. The pieces will heat up and merge with a skill level of 30%, plus 5% per level. The pieces merge at a rate of one foot per melee round and requires one melee attack/action per round to maintain due to the concentration involved. If the skill roll is unsuccessful, the structure will only remain solid for the hero's ME number in hours before crumbling. If successful, the structure will last the hero's ME number in days or until destroyed. Note that this ability only works on candy or materials converted to candy.
4. Other Abilities and Bonuses:
- Can eat twice his weight in candy per day without getting sick.
- +5% to Cooking skill when making candy and confections using sugar.
