Chibi
Chibi (minor) by Stone Gargoyle
By expending an action, the hero can transform into an exaggerated childlike being known as a chibi. The chibi will look like a simplified, exaggerated version of the character. It will have enlarged eyes, a large head, and will reduce the hero's size to only one third their normal height, making them appear chunky. This includes clothing and weapons, as well as any electronic devices, which will appear more simplistic but still function normally.
While in chibi form, the hero gains the following bonuses:
- Strength goes up one category (Normal PS becomes Extraordinary, Extraordinary PS becomes Superhuman, and Superhuman PS becomes Supernatural). Lifting, carrying and damage should be adjusted accordingly.
- Gains +2d4 PB while in chibi form.
- Damage from melee weapons is doubled, as the weapon becomes enlarged and exaggerated.
- Power range and damage is doubled for Energy Expulsion attacks possessed by the hero.
- Gains +10% to Prowl
Range: Self
Duration: Only lasts for one melee round.
Attacks: Uses one melee attack/action to activate the power.
Uses Per Day: The power can only be activated the hero's ME number of times per day, plus one more time per level. Must wait at least 10 minutes between uses.
Drawbacks: Limited number of uses and extremely limited duration. Also, while the hero is in chibi form, all of the hero's motivations and feelings are exaggerated, obvious and easily readable.
Special: The chibi can access certain magical effects through emotion, allowing the hero to cast spells by expending an action when in an emotional state even if not normally possessing magical training. These spells include Blinding Flash, Cloud of Smoke, Globe of Daylight, Energy Bolt, Float In Air, Ignite fire, Energy Field and Fire Bolt, though can include any spell from levels 1-4. The chibi cannot simulate any magical effect beyond level four and spells reduce PPE when used at normal cost. They can use this to exaggerate other effects, however, such as crying tears and flooding a room, for the cost of 10 PPE (at GM's discretion). The magical spell ability is only usable in chibi form unless the hero also possesses magical training.
This one seems so popular, I will add to it to give it the option of being a major as follows:
