Forced Hunger

Forced Hunger(minor)by [Stone Gargoyle

"Man, am I hungry..."

The character has the ability to inflict extreme hunger in those around him.

1.Absorb Nutrients: The character absorbs food in a type of vampiric osmosis.

Range: 10 feet per level

Duration: Always on

Effect: The character never has to eat, absorbing nutrients through some sort of bio-electrical transference field.

Saving Throw: A victim caught in this field must save vs. disease(14 or better, PE bonus applies) or else suffer from the effects of starvation(below).

2.Starvation: Victims within range begin suffering symptoms of lack of nutrition and malnourishment(if they fail their saving throw).

Duration: While within the field, plus 1d4 hours following.

Damage: Victims suffer loss of 1 SDC point per 10 minutes.

Penalties: Targets within the transfer field suffer -2 to all combat actions, -1d6 to PS, -1d6 to PE, -1 to PP, and find that they are unable to eat anything without becoming nauseated. In addition, the victim must save vs. poison(14 or better, PE bonus applies) any time he eats anything. Afteer 10 minutes within the field, these penalties are doubled and there is a 01-30% chance the person will faint and pass out. Even though they get sick eating, the character will try to eat time and again, making the difficulty to save vs. poison +1 harder each time.

Possible Insanities: There is a 10% chance the victim of the power will develop an aversion to food.
