Haymaker [minor] by Iczer

'Here's the wind up...then the pitch..'

The character can magnify his power by concentrating his energy into a single blow.
The character pauses as an action. until his next action in the melee round, he is -4 to all defenses. On his next action, the power is either released as an attack, or it dissipates.
Any attack that releases this energy has the following bonuses:

  • Damage is doubled (rolled twice rather than simply multiplied)
  • The attack roll is at +4
  • Any target struck is affected as if struck by the minor power: Knock back attack. If the angle of the attack is appropriate, he may direct the knock back upwards (one third distance up and back).
