MET LARP SRD

(2013 BNS MET System)

Displacement Aura

Prerequisites

Fortitude 1
Obfuscate 2

Description

The essence of dodging is being somewhere other than where you’re anticipated: a property not entirely restricted to the fleet of foot. Your skill with Obfuscate allows you to confound your assailants’ senses, provided you have your wits about you.

System

Once purchased, this power is always active. When threatened, you project a passive aura of displacement, making it more difficult for attackers to target you. Whenever you are defending in an opposed challenge that requires you to use your Physical attribute + Dodge skill as your test pool, you can substitute your Mental attribute for your Physical attribute and/or your Stealth skill for your Dodge skill. You benefit from this technique as long as you are not grappled. You still benefit from any defensive bonus you receive from Celerity when using this technique even if you use your Stealth skill in your defense pool. Any other effects or merits that grant a bonus to challenges involving your Dodge skill apply normally when using your Stealth skill to defend with this technique, such as those granted from the Dancer’s Grace or Slippery Customer merits. Use of Displacement Aura does not prohibit you from using the assist defender mass combat tactic, nor does that tactic prohibit you from using this technique
