Tempest Form

Prerequisites

Protean 5
Potence 1

Description

Many Nordic Gangrel feel a kinship with the Norse Gods that exert power over storms and winds. With this power, your Form of Mist becomes a swirling torrent of air, capable of summoning powerful gusts. The Einherjar believe this technique is a gift from Thor, allowing them to punish those who take cowardly forms in battle. Test Pool Physical attribute + Athletics or Firearms skill versus target’s Physical attribute + Dodge skill

System

Whenever you activate the Protean power Form of Mist, you gain the ability to buffet your foes with a gust of wind. To do so, you must succeed in an opposed challenge using the Tempest Form test pool. Characters that have the Wits Mental focus can choose to substitute their Mental attribute for their Physical attribute if they are using the Firearms skill for this challenge. If you succeed in the opposed challenge, your target is knocked back, using the rules for the Knockback ranged equipment quality (see MET: VTM, Chapter Thirteen: Influences and Equipment). Other than the benefits provided by Knockback, this attack cannot be augmented or improved in any way. While this attack does 0 points of damage to individuals in solid form, this attack is devastating to semi-solid bodies. If your target has the powers Form of Mist, Tenebrous Form or Blood Form active, or if she is in any other non-solid but still corporeal state, this attack deals 3 points of normal damage instead of applying Knockback. This is an exception to the rules that limit the damage those forms can take to certain sources. Wraiths or vampires using the Elder Power: Ghost Body (available in the upcoming MET: VTM, Vol 2, Issue 2) do not count as semi-solid targets, but embodied spirits or entities conjured by the Thaumaturgy: Path of Elemental Mastery power Summon Elemental may be affected by this power, depending upon the composition of their forms, at the Storyteller’s discretion. In addition, you may harness Tempest Form to aid in self-propulsion. While you have Form of Mist active, you may take one additional step for each action spent on movement. This power is a major transformation and cannot be used with other major transformation powers.
