Basic Action

Time Stop

Limit Break

You stop time for everyone except yourself. Make a Maneuver check against the highest Reflexes among the opposition. If you succeed, you have a number of shots equal to the outcome where only you can act. Threat this as a separate round that is played out right now and where only you have an initiative count. Once your extra shots are spent, play resumes where it was. During this time, there are some special rules.

• You cannot focus during a time stop, and you cannot use time stop continuously.
• The only creature that can act or be directly affected by actions or events is you. All other characters are frozen in time and bit immovable and invulnerable. There minds are not there to be interacted with, and they cannot perceive anything.
• You can move (but not damage) nonliving, non-sentient objects by conscious effort. Objects do not move except when you move them. Even a flying or falling object is frozen in mid-air. An object you move this way loses its kinetic energy and, if unsupported, falls to the ground when time resumes.
• By setting up an object to trip or hider a creature, you can do so a Trip stunt with a +3 bonus, whose effect is applied after the time stop ends.
• Because creatures cannot perceive you, you can do a Sneak stunt with a +3 bonus, and can easily move into hiding.
