Induce Susceptibility
Induce Susceptibility(Minor) by Taalismn
“Yeah, normally aerosol Placidol is a mild sedative that anybody with a sound constitution could hold off the effects of for HOURS, but in your case, it’s lights out right now!”
This is the ability to induce a specific susceptibility in a person. This can be used to negate a defensive ability like Resistance to Heat, allowing subsequent heat-based attacks to do normal damage to the target. It can also be used to lower a victim’s resistance to specific drugs; in such cases a mild anesthetic would be TWICE as fast-acting and have a longer duration, or a truth drug would be TWICE as effective in loosening the victim’s tongue. It can also be used to create a temporary allergic reaction to something(like inducing lactose intolerance in somebody eating an ice cream cone). The inducer MUST specify at the beginning of a Susceptibility attack what specific substance or attack type they are inducing a vulnerability to..... Note that this power will NOT induce a susceptibility that the targeted being cannot normally have...a being with no need to breath cannot be made susceptible to airborne gases, for example, nor could a robot drone be made susceptible to mind control.
Range: Touch or 5 ft per level of experience
Duration: 10 minutes per level of experience for substances, 2 melees per level of experience for attack types
Effect: Induces a susceptibility to a specific substance(cajun pepper, milk, botulinan toxin, curare, etc...) or attack type(fire, cold, energy, psionic, magic, etc...). DOUBLES the effects/duration/effectiveness if no prior resistance exists, or does NORMAL damage/effect where a prior resistance exists.
