Diamondcoat
Diamondcoat [Major] by Iczer
'as you can see ladies, I am your best friend'
The character can coat himself or other small objects with a kind of flexible diamond glaize.
1) Coat self: When coated in a sheet of diamond like matter, the character gains a crystal/white sheen and sparkles in light. Kinetic attacks that rely on speed (such as bullets) or sharpness (such as blades) inflict half damage and need to penetrate an AR of 16. blunt, slow impacts need only penetrate an AR of 12 and inflict normal damage. The diamond sheet adds +40 to the character's SDC (regenerates at a rate of 1 per 5 minutes).
Lasers bounce off the character's shiny surface, and heat and electricity inflict only half damage to a diamond coated object.
While coated in diamond layers, the character's abrasive surface inflicts 2D4 damage to anyone grappling him.
2) Coat objects: An object sheathed in diamond gains similar protection as outlined above. the character must touch the object in question. objects with delicate, or exposed moving parts (such as a gun) will no longer function (GM's call though. A computer may function perfectly, in theory, but it will take a hammer and chisel to actually get the on switch to work)
A blade coated in diamond layers gains a +1 damage bonus per level, and ignores 3 points of AR when it hits a target.
At any rate, the coating breaks down after 3D6 minutes +1 minute per level.
