Phase cutting by Iczer
“Hurts..don’t it.”
The character has the ability to make his hands (and other natural weapons) slightly out of phase, as so to cause deep and injurious wounds to another. Essentially, the character strikes with his out of phase limb and then partially reform the limb while inside another person. This is insanely painful, and causes molecular trauma to the recipient rather than mere concussions and piercing.
- The attack inflicts normal damage, but only half the normal damage bonus may be applied
- Any victim of this type of attack may be stunned by it. Make a save vs pain of 12+ (include PE bonuses). Failure means the victim is stunned, losing his next action (and suffering a –4 to defensive maneuvers)
- Works through any form of worn armor, except if said armor is more than 6 inches in thickness, or is reinforced by a force field (scientific, psionic or magical)
- Works through any natural armor ratings, except those provided by transforming into a non organic form (such as alter physical structures)
- Applies only to the character’s natural attacks. Held weapons do not apply, though any inborn weapons (claws, horns, spiked tongue etc)
- Does not work on people with the power of Disruptive touch. (Something to do with their own abilities to manipulate nervous energies)
