Costume (Action)
Heroic Action Role-Play |
This is a Method for using Powers in Action. Methods are a part of Traditions and define how Powers are used in each campaign.
Costume
You have a special look you wear to work your power. This is distinctive, and marks you as odd; people in the know can learn things about your Tradition from it. It need not be a specific outfit, rather it is a range of outfits with some common and identifiable characteristic. The exact details vary, but specific colors, long robes, pointy hats, or embroidered signs and glyphs are standard. Variant costumes include extensive tattoos, nudity, a certain style of jewelry or accessories, or a very funky hairdo.
Limitation
You must be in costume to work powers. Donning your costume is a basic action. It is possible to wear the costume under other clothes, but this counts as a Disguise stunt.
Focus Condition
Trigger Action (Focus)
You can always focus at any time when in costume, but it costs you a Fortune point to do so.
