Charm Devils
Basic Action
You are supernaturally enchanting to certain creatures. You master whatever form of communication they use, even if you are normally unable to communicate with them at all.
Enchanting someone requires an opposed Charm roll. On an Outcome equal to the target's Mind, the target falls for your enchantment. On a lesser success you gain an advantage. A failed check interrupts the process, forcing you to look for a new opportunity at a later time.
Once someone has been enchanted, they will willingly follow and help you out. They seek to avoid conflict with their old allies, but if push comes to shove you cannot guarantee how they will react; they will try to avoid seeing you harmed, but they might make you a captive to save you later or even to have you at their mercy, or they might decide to throw in their lot with you and abandon their former allies. Someone who you have enchanted expects trust and help from you, but the enchantment breaks automatically only in the most blatant cases of maltreatment. If you are callous and disregard their interests they can make opposed Charm rolls against you to see through the enchantment. The same applies if a friend points out they have been charmed, but in this case it is an opposed roll against the friend's Charm skill and takes a Limit Break to do.
Enchantment normally wears off in about a weeks time, but can be maintained through continuous use of the power; it will last indefinitely if reapplied once per day. Even after the power ends you leave your targets with fond memories of you unless you mistreated them. Someone who realizes they have been enchanted and used can become vindictive or even downright hostile, but this is not the normal result.
This power only works on Devils. It doesn't change their basic nature; even when charmed they might cause you harm because it is in their nature.
Dark Inspiration
Reflex Action
You inspire others to be deceptive, self-indulgent, and bestial. Whenever someone in the vicinity fails an action based on these "virtues", you can take a reflex action to give him an immediate reroll. This applies to most uses of the Maneuver skill, and to other skills and rolls as determined my the GM.
Dark Thoughts
Trigger Action (Finisher)
You can inspire others to deeds of evil and selfishness, enhancing the darkness in their souls and reducing their sense of self and identity. You cannot control the targets exact actions, but while under the influence of this power, any inhibitions the target normally has are removed. Any successful interaction stunt against the target causes as setback, as if the target had a Mind score of zero. This is a Curse.
Enervating Focus
Trigger Action (Focus)
You can focused when hit by Enervation. Whenever you are hit by an attack with a damage of 5 or more (before adding for Outcome), you can focus.
