Dispel Sorcery (Action Powers)

Analyze Power

Basic Action

You can sense the presence and effects of powers at a distance. If the power is of an elemental form: Air, Earth, Electricity, Fire, Ice, Metal, Plant, or Water, you know the exact effect immediately, otherwise it takes you can identify the power as a Limit Break.

Normally, you detect the closest power effect, but by concentrating on a particular type (name or general description) you can eliminate all others. This means you may have to use this power many times to sort through a complex scene.

You can analyze the properties of any power within reach, even if it is inside a container or otherwise separated from you. You learn what power it is, who used it, when, to what effect, and an approximate power level. Even powers that have ended leave a signature that can be analyzed, though the impressions fade; after the end of the scene, it is no longer possible to determine who used the power and its exact effect. The signature fades completely in a matter of days or weeks, stronger and more dramatic uses leaving stronger impressions. Meta Power (Action)

One year	16
A decade	18
A century	20
A millennium	22
Ten millennia	24

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.

Meta Power (Action) When you dispel a power of an elemental form you know (Air, Earth, Electricity, Fire, Ice, Metal, Plant, or Water), you can immediately perform a Limit Break using a power of that form that you know.
