Flight: Gas (minor) by Mr. Twist

Most of those with this power tend to hide it. It's not exactly the most magnificent of flight powers, though it can come in handy when you need to get somewhere fast. To avoid jumping around the point, this type of flight is achieved through expelling gas through the nether regions with enough force to create lift-off and continued flight. You fart yourself into the air. The facial expressions exhibited by those possessing this form of flight are legion and usually end up in the news.

Speed: 300mph at first level, +20mph each additional level. Can't hover. No less than maximum speed can be achieved.
Bonuses(in flight):
+2 to strike, only when attempting a ramming attack using this power.
Awe(maybe Horror) Factor of 12 when seen using this ability. It's just that odd.
+1 attack per melee, and only useable when that extra attack is for 'blasting' off.
Bonuses(in general):
+4D6 to SDC
+1 to P.E.
Never has any kind of gastrointestinal problems at all from illness or food intake.
Effects At 'Blast Off': Anyone within a 20ft radius of 'blast off' must immediately save vs. non-lethal poison to resist the fumes that are a problematic side effect of this power. Failure to save results in a -2/-10% to all actions attempted in the same melee round as a 'blast off', along with losing a single melee action.
Note: If the person using this power has eaten beans, or any other... gaseous expulsion increasing dietary supplement within the last 4 hours, speed is increased by 25%.
