Disruption [Major] by Iczer

'this is not just a slap in the face, this is a slap right through your face'

The character generates a field of withering energy attuned to specific opponents, desgined to wither their bodies with but a touch. The character must have touched his opponent at least once in the last 15 minutes to perform these strikes, and may be attuned to only one lifeform at a time.

1) Disrupt flesh: The characters mere touch requires his opponent to save vs withering (14+ PE bonuses apply) or take an extra 3d6 damage from his bare handed strikes. (save each time he is hit). A successful save still adds +1 damage, plus one every even level.

2) Disrupt natural armour: If the target has natural armour (and is still a valid target..see below) the character can simply ignore it with his diruptive strikes

3) Disrupt bones and organs: By attuning to a target's bones, his unarmed strikes reach deeply. The target makes a saving throw (12+ PE bonuses apply) or recieve a random serious side effect (page 19 HU2).

4) Wither wood: Wooden objects and live plants can beattuned to as well. a wood withering strike can act as #1 or #2, or can instead simply create a shattering effect, doing 6d6 damage (plus PS) and putting a hole the size of the characters fist (or foot as the case may be) reducing AR of the object by 1.

5) Drawbacks: The character can only attune himself to one opponent at a time and even then only through touch. The character cannot affect those transformed into inorganic substances (such as stone, steel or plasma etc) and if an opponent can drastically alter his biological pattern, then the character is no longer attuned to him (such as transforming from attuned flesh to plant, or changing to an animal, etc) Lastly, the character must strike his opponent. natural weapons are innsuficient to attune or to damage.

6) Other benefits:

+2 to strike living opponents and +2 to damage with bare handed melee attacks.
+6d6 SDC
Character is immune to flesh disruptions, such as this power, the disintegration power and any other flesh stripping attack.
