Aberrant RPG - Aberrant RPG Enhancement: Paralyzing Pronouncement

[Matt]

Paralyzing Pronouncement (Mega-Manipulation)

Every now and again, someone says something that stops a person dead in their tracks. A nova with this enhancement can utter a statement (from an obtuse riddle to a riotous joke) that stops the victim from taking any action other than walking a few feet (usually in a random direction).

System: The nova spends 1 quantum point and rolls her Manipulation + Mega-Manipulation dice (resisted by the target's Wits & Mega-Wits). Every net success prevents the target from taking action for a turn (or for a minute per success outside of combat). However, any hostile action directed at the target snaps them from their stupor at no penalty. A target that cannot hear or understand the nova is unaffected.
