Tuning Fork

Tuning Fork [Minor] by Iczer

'Hear that ringing? that's the bell that tolls for thee sukah!'

The character ressonates like a tuning fork when physically struck, creating sonic waves.

1) Sonic storage: The character stores damage inflicted by kinetic damage, and holds it for later use. The character takes half damage from any kinetic source. each blow generates a ringing noise as the sonic energy escapes. the remaining damage is stored as sonic energy that can be released at will. The character can store up to 20 points of sonic damage, plus his PE attribute, plus a further 5 per level. By slamming his fists against a solid object (even when punching) he can safely acquire 2 points of sonic energy without harming himself, (and thusly can charge up without harming himself) when his capacity is full, he can store no more, but is still resistant to damage.

2) Effects of storage: Apart from the ringing noise he generates when he stores sonic energy, (negates prowl -40%) the character can release his energy in the following ways

• Shockwave punch: can inflict an extra 1d6 with a single melee attack by releasing 2 points of charge
• Sonic attack: every 6 points of sonic charge releases a sonic beam out to 60 feet inflicting 2d6 damage with +2 to strike.
• Squeal: 10 points generates super or subsonic oscillations that affect foes within 10 feet. People in this area without hearing protection will lose one attack and 2 initiative as well as suffer -20% to skill use. this affect lasts for the whole melee round

3) Other effects: Immune to sonic damage. Excellent sense of hearing, can hear perfectly through his own noise.
