Laser Sight (Major) by Stone Gargoyle

The hero can manipulate laser diode energy to diagnose problems in the human body and to perform surgery in addition to other typers of laser attacks.

1. Laser Image Creation: By shooting a low powered laser into an organic body through the heating of the bodily fluids, the hero forms vapor inside the target which he can scan to detect imperfections and anomalies.
The hero automatically has the equivalent of First Aid skill at 80% plus 2% per level of experience, +1 on initiative, +1 to dodge and +3 to pull punch. He knows pressure points and vital spots, from his continuous familiarity with living bodies, to inflict an extra +1d4 +4 points of damage from his punches intended to do maximum damage (the player must announce his intentions before he rolls to strike), and inflicts Critical damage (double) from behind or on a Natural 17-20, provided he has scanned the individual prior to this attack.

Range: Close Combat or line of Sight up to 1000 feet
Damage: None, cannot be combined with a damaging beam.
Duration: 15 seconds of close combat or 1d6+1 minutes to conduct a scan on an individual.
Attacks: Not Applicable
Saving Throw: Not Applicable, though the hero will be unable to scan anyone Impervious to Light and Lasers.

2. Energy Expulsion: Laser Beam: The hero can intensify the beam as necessary, doing as little as 1d4 damage, as for the purposes of laser surgery, or up to 2d6, plus 1d6 per level, damage (the hero controls the amount of light emitted).

Range: 600 feet
Duration: Instant
Attacks: Each blast counts as one melee attack action, though it will use two attacks/actions to perform precise cuts for surgical purposes.
Duration: Strikes instantly and cuts made are permanent until they heal.
Bonuses: +3 to strike on an aimed shot, +1 if shooting wild

3. Other Abilities and Bonuses:

The hero is Impervious to Light and Lasers, and only takes half damage from Electrical attacks.
The superbeing can cause his eyes to glow, providing up to 60 watts of light (the same as a typical desk lamp).
+3 to distance weapon attacks within 1600 feet due to an ability to use his laser vision to aid in targeting.
