This is a Method for using Powers in Action. Methods are a part of Traditions and define how Powers are used in each campaign.

Power Explosion

You have an overabundance power within you. When you release your full power, it comes with an explosive release. This does no harm, but is loud, flashy, and usually causes you to float in the air. It changes your appearance, at the very ruffling your outfit and leaving you slightly crispy. Depending on the campaign and your role, it might leave you naked.

You can usually get yourself in order between scenes, but with short scenes you might not have the opportunity.

Limitation

When you use a lot of powers rapidly there are side effects even when not used to focus. Your hands might glow, you are surrounded by glowing runes, levitate in the air, or glow in strange colors. You can avoid this almost completely by taking your time, using no more than a power per minute.

Focus Condition

At any time when you are properly dressed and looking fine, you can focus. Doing so triggers a power explosion.
