Energy Expulsion: Scattershot

Energy Expulsion: Scattershot (minor) by Mr. Scorpio

With this power the character is able to generate multiple small projectiles formed from energy (choose one) and fire them in bursts much like an automatic weapon. Using the Burst and Spray rules for semi-automatic and automatic weapons (HU2, pages 75-76) this allows him to attack a single opponent several times or several opponents with a single Spray attack.

Range: 200 feet

Number of Energy Projectiles: 1 per point of P.E.

Damage per Projectile: 1D6 + 1 at levels 2, 4, 6, 8, 10 and 12

Duration: Instant

Bonuses: +1 to strike (all attacks are considered to be wild).

Note: Roll to strike once for the entire burst. So not roll for each individual projectile. If the burst misses its target, then all of the projectiles in that burst miss.

1. Short Burst: A short controlled burst at a single target.

Roll damage for ONE projectile x3 if the character has a P.E. of 16 or higher.

Attacks per Melee: Uses 1 melee attack.

3. Full Attack: An all out attack against a single target.

Damage:

Roll damage for ONE projectile x5 if the character has a P.E. of 15 or less.

Roll damage for ONE projectile x7 if the character has a P.E. of 16 or higher.

Attacks per Melee: Uses 2 melee attacks.

4. Spray: Either a Long Burst or a Full Attack against multiple targets.

1. Roll 1D20 to determine if the target area is hit (a 5 or better strikes that area).

2. Roll to strike, at –6, to hit the primary target. Damage: Roll damage for one projectile.

3. Roll 1D4 to determine how many secondary targets were deliberately hit by the spray attack. Damage: Roll damage for one projectile.

4. There is a 01-50% chance that 1D4 innocent bystanders (if any are in the area) are hit by a single round each. Damage: Roll damage for one projectile.
