MET LARP SRD
(2013 BNS MET System)
Corpulent Discharge
The Path of the Graveborn • Level 4
There are five stages to the process of decomposition. The second stage, bloat, causes a corpse to fill with an accumulation of gases as the body continues to decay. By wielding dominion over death, you fill your body with necrotic gases causing you to bloat and swell. When struck by enemies, the wounds burst releasing the draining energies of decay in a disgusting eruption of foul-smelling air and ectoplasmic carnage.
Cost
1 Blood
Focus
Charisma
Anyone who hits you with a Brawl or Melee attack takes an additional point of normal damage for a total of 3 and your affected zombie allies explode for 3 points normal damage when destroyed.
System
Spend 1 Blood and a simple action to assume a bloated and decaying form, imbuing your innards with a pustulant mixture of blood and ash. Anyone within 2 steps of you who succeeds in a Brawl or Melee attack against you takes 2 points of normal damage as pus and gore sprays out of the resultant wound, showering them in viscera. The necrotic magics present in this secretion prevent the target from benefiting from supernatural concealment, such as Unseen Presence, until they have removed the viscera. Victims may spend a standard action hastily wiping off the ectoplasm to relieve themselves of its negative effects.
In addition, you may imbue a number of nearby zombies equal to your dots in the Occult skill that you control with a lesser effect that causes them to explode when they have lost all health levels. An exploding Zombie dealings 2 normal damage to all characters within 2 steps. This utterly destroys the zombie’s form, leaving rotted parts and scattered gore throughout the immediate area. Both you and any zombies you control are immune to the damage from this explosion. Treat any exploding zombies as individual sources of damage, such as when triggered by a bomb explosion or Firestorm.
Corpulent Discharge lasts for 15 minutes. You may only have a single application of this power active at a given time. This power counts as a minor transformation.
