Custom Power List

[Silverblaze]

It's balanced, Righteousness has a similar effect without a limit so long as you stay within your purpose plus a secondary effect. This removes the limitation of your purpose and the secondary effect, balancing each other in return for length. 

Fate point per roll.

Conceptual Killer:
[-2] Description: You can kill anything no matter what it is even if it does not have a body
For a fate point you can attack anything with weapons, this can be a song, a disease, a concept or even a memory. The more entrenched a concept the harder it is to kill.

A power I was thinking could combine well with a reskinned version of All Thing Equal Before God.

This reminds me of Teatime from Pratchett's "The Hogfather." His assassination attempt really highlights the use of Declarations, and was basically an extended Thaumaturgical Ritual.

[Sanctaphrax]

It's pretty darn cool, but I have no idea what I'd do if a player took it.

"Okay, so you kill his masculinity. I suppose he becomes a woman now...does that count as an extreme consequence?"

And so on.

By the way, something similar would be pretty interesting as a type of Ritual or Sponsored Magic.

I can imagine this as a weapon-based, limited scope Ritual option which could change anything if Taken Out.

Vacuum Air Blade [-1]
Your speed with the blade is so fast you can create a current of wind to hit your enemy in the distance
Description: When wielding a sword you now have a range of up to three zones  

Shimmer Sham: [-1]
Prereq: Glamours
Description: You are never where you appear to be.
You can use you Seemings Roll for Defense

Magic Lasoo Powers

No Matter the Strength [-2]
Once an enemy is successfully grappled their strength and speed powers are nulified until they break free from or are let loose from the grapple.  

No Matter the Power [-4]    
Once an enemy is successfully grappled their strength, speed and toughness power (not including physical immunity) are totally nulified until they break free or at let loose from the grapple.

Divinity Breaker [-8]
Once an enemy is successfully grappled all of their powers are nulified (including physical immunity) until they break free or are let loose from the grapple.

[Peteman]

Obvious Dubbing [-0] (Well suited for a Supernatural Martial Artist)

You have the ability to talk like you're a badly dubbed character from a martial arts film. This grants no mechanical benefits unless you have aspects that reflect the fact that you are supposed to be a cheesy martial arts film character.


Obvious Actual Dubbing [-2] (Well suited for a Supernatural Martial Artist)

You are able to talk (but not read) in any language without learning it. However, you suffer a -1 to any social rolls involving conversation in any language you do not actually know because you're not well translated and the way your mouth doesn't synch with your mouth looks funny. Nonverbal communication is unaffected.

Magic Lasoo Powers

Unless those are a joke, they are obviously overpowered. A -2 refresh should never nullify up to 12 refresh worth of powers. A -4 refresh should never nullify up to 24 refresh worth of powers. And -8 refresh should never nullify everything.

[ways and means]

Your right Divinity Breaker is a little strong how about this modification


Once an enemy is successfully grappled any power less than 8 refresh are nulified (including physical immunity) until they break free or are let loose from the grapple.

[Belial666]

Well, seeing as all powers are less than 8 refresh except for no-catch physical immunity, it still ends up the same. You could state it like this;

[-X] No Matter the Power
Once an enemy is successfully grappled, X refresh worth of their powers are nullified. If you know what powers the enemy has, you may choose which to nullify.

[Sanctaphrax]

How about this:

No Matter The Strength [-2]

The Might bonus from strength powers and the Athletics bonus from speed powers do not aid characters in escaping your grapples.

No Matter The Power [-2] (Requires No Matter The Strength)

Your grapples automatically satisfy the catch for all toughness powers other than Physical Immunity.

[ways and means]

Those powers are what I was aiming for thanks.

[Belial666]

OK, so someone with Mythic Strength, Blood Drinker, Tentacles and No Matter the Power would not only grapple at Skill+5 (so probably at least legendary), but they'd also negate enemy bonuses vs their grapples, satisfy catches automatically and deal 5 stress per successful grapple. I think that's an automatic takeout 95% of the time.



Negating numerical bonuses while still getting your own numerical bonuses is a BAD idea.

[Sanctaphrax]

They'd hit like an evoker.

I'm not sure if that's a good thing.

Belial's example costs 12 refresh, so it ought to be badass. But it shouldn't outdo Evocation + Refinement + All Creatures Are Equal Before God.

Needs playtesting, I think.

PS: I still regard Tentacles as a typo.
