Fear Net (Major) by Stone Gargoyle

"Behold as I use his own fears against him..."

The superbeing can use a person's fear to bind them in a net which becomes solid enough for the superbeing to use to drag the poor scared fool away in.

1. Horror Factor: Same as the minor super ability.

2. Bound With Fear: Once the potential target has failed a save vs. Horror Factor, the superbeing can initiate a PPE drain, drawing an amount of PPE from the frightened person equal to the superbeing's ME attribute number, plus one PPE point per level of experience. This draws forth magic tendrils which may be used to entangle the person (roll to Entangle with a bonus of +2 plus and ME bonus amount; other strike bonuses do not apply). Draining the target and entangling them can be done with a single action, with the tendrils being magical in nature (can be dismissed with a dispel magic spell) and having an effective SDC and PS tensile strength both equal to the superbeing's ME attribute number, +! SDC and PS per level of experience. The victim cannot break the net by fighting it but can do a save vs. magic once per melee round starting the round following the initial capture.
The superbeing can generate one such net at a given time at level one, plus one additional at levels 4, 8 and 12, and can drag them on the ground at half their normal SPD even if the weight exceeds the normal carry limit for the superbeing.

3. Other Abilities and Bonuses:

+2d4 ME
+4 to save vs. magic
+2d6 PPE
