MET LARP SRD

Of all resources, time is perhaps the only one that’s doled out in equal measure. Though this tends to be the case, you’ve found a way to cut in line. Once per hour, when someone else has declared their action during a combat scenario, but before the related challenge has been performed, you may expend this merit’s power. If you do, you may interrupt and take your next action immediately, setting aside the current action. After you have acted, the individual you interrupted is still obliged to take her action exactly as she declared. If you have interrupted her movement, she is obliged to take identical steps. If she attempted an attack that tested against your Dodge skill defense test pool and you stepped out of the way, her attack strikes at empty air. However, she is still able to target you normally with Social or Mental powers. If you have already acted during the round in which you opt to use Borrowed Time, you may still use this merit; however you lose your action in the next applicable round, e.g. the next initiative in which you have an action.
