Conceal Power

Stance

You can suppress the force emanation from any powers you are using; your power-use cannot be detected tough the effects of powers. The effects of the powers are not concealed; an obvious effect is still obvious. As long as you don't do anything spectacular and only affect yourself, your powers will escape detection by other powers.

You can end the effects of other powers. You can only dispel powers you know of (though a vague description, such as "whatever is making Bert turn green" is ok). You can try to dispel a single Finisher, Limit Break, or any power that has been in effect for a week or more, or you can try to dispel all powers except those mentioned above on one creature or in an area with a diameter equal to your Mind. When dispelling several powers at once, you can choose to ignore some of them as long as you know of each power you want to make an exception for.

A power that has been dispelled cannot be used again by that creature in this scene, and another creature that tries to use the same power in the same general area must match your Know with the stunt the power is used with, or it fails.

This will not negate a Curse, but will tell you how to defeat the curse if the roll is successful.

Inherent powers cannot be dispelled.

The difficulty is the skill of the most skilled creature involved in making the effect. Effects that have been around a long time are harder to dispel: see the table. Use the highest relevant difficulty.

You can dispel any power of the Force form.

True Force

Basic Action

Make an opposed Know roll target. One roll is sufficient against a group of unnamed creatures. If you succeed your Force attacks are not affected by Resist powers; targets do not get to add their Mind to their Action to soak damage from them. If you know of a particular type of force or kinetic attack (such as smashing or cutting) the target is vulnerable to, you can imbue such attacks to exploit this vulnerability.
