Face Off (minor) by Stone Gargoyle

The character can basically cause his own facial features to morph into those of someone else while simultaneously morphing their features into his.

1. Mugging: The character can swap faces with another person by touching their face.

Saving Throw: 14 or better (PE bonus applies) if the victim is alive; none if swapping faces with a corpse.
Attacks/Actions: Contact must be maintained for one full melee
Range: Touch; faces morph and spasm unless in full contact (faces touching).
Duration: Faces remain changed for 1 hour per level, after which the faces revert to normal, both the superbeing's and that of the victim. They can revert back sooner at the will of the superbeing.

2. Limitations: This power only alters muscle and bone configuration and may not eliminate scars, birthmarks, moles or freckles, nor does it change eye or hair color in the superbeing or his victim. Can only swap faces once per day per level and time for all changes cannot exceed duration. For example, if he uses one face for 6 hours at level twelve, he can only use an additional 5 faces for a total of 6 more hours. The duration for all changes may be spaced out as needed but cannot exceed one hour per level for the total number of face changes.

Note: This power can be used for such things as losing a tail or faking one's own death. Caution must be used, however, as changing one's face into a known criminal's can have negative results.

Face Off (Major) by Stone Gargoyle

The character can basically cause his own facial features to morph into those of someone else while simultaneously morphing their features into his.

1. Mugging: The character can swap faces with another person by touching their face. This power only alters muscle and bone configuration and eliminate scars, birthmarks, moles and freckles, as well as changing eye and hair color in the superbeing and his victim. Can swap faces his PE number of times per day, plus 1 additional time per level.

Saving Throw: 16 or better (PE bonus applies) if the victim is alive; none if swapping faces with a corpse.
Attacks/Actions: Contact must be maintained for one full melee
Range: Touch; faces morph and spasm unless in full contact (faces touching).
Duration: Faces remain changed for as long as the character desires, after which the faces revert to normal, both the superbeing's and that of the victim. They can revert back at any time according to the will of the superbeing.

2. Facial Imprinting: The character can also choose to store the memory of a face for later use. The face must be one that he has previously used and the victim can save vs. the use of the face as per the Mugging ability. The character can store his ME number of faces in memory, plus 1 additional face per level of experience. Changing his face for that of the victim from memory takes a full melee round.
