Attribute Theft

Trigger Action (Finisher)

You steal an attribute and can use it for the rest of the scene. The target is forced to use your score in this attribute. If you steal Body you also exchange physical size. You can only steal one attribute from each target. You learn the targets attributes when using this power, and you have the option not to exchange attributes if the result is unsatisfactory.

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 Gifts origin.

Power Theft

Trigger Action (Finisher)

You steal a power and can use it with the Gifts Origin for the rest of the session. The target loses the use of the power for the same period.

Resist Damage

Inherent

Select one Damage Type when you take this power. Add your Mind to your soak attribute against this type of damage. You can take this power several times, picking a new type of damage each time.

Ward Breaker

Inherent

You are extraordinarily resistant to Summon powers, and add +5 to your Dodge and Impress skill to resist them.
