POWERS
Powers are abilities far beyond those of mortal
men, for example, flying or firing energy bolts. The
listed here can be used to simulate the powers of a
superhero, the spells of a sorcerer, or the abilities of an
alien.
Not all characters ill have Powers. A modern spy
or a fantasy swordsman can be built by buying only
Characteristics, Skills, and Talents. On the other hand,
a superhero or a fantasy magic user can have many
different Powers.
General Rules:
Every Phase a Power is turned on, it costs the
character 1 END for every 2PP of Power used. Powers
with the description cost no END never cost the
character any END to use.
Powers that normally cost END to use have visible
special effects. Its up to the player to decide exactly
how the Power comes form. Powers that cost no END
(not including Powers bought to 0 END Cost) do not
require special effects.
A character does not have to use a Power to its
maximum potential. A character can use any amount
of his Power, form zero to the number of PP he has in
the Power.
However, a character must use all of a Powers
Advantages and Limitations each time he uses the
Power.
Powers that cost no END to use are always
functioning at full Power, even if the character is
Stunned or unconscious. Power that normally cost
END turn off when the hero is Stunned or
unconscious.
All Powers can be classified as Instant, Constant,
or Persistent. An Instant Power lasts just long enough
for the character using the power to make an Attack
Roll. Constant Power can be maintained over time.
Once a character has turned a Constant Power on, he
need only expend END each Phase to keep the Power
activated. A Persistent Power stays on unless the
character actively turns the Power off. Persistent
Powers include Powers like Mental Defense, Armor,
and Enhanced Senses. A character does not have to
turn on a Persistent Power, the Power is assumed to be
on at all times, even when the character is
unconscious. A character can turn off a Persistent
Power if he chooses; the Power will remain off until
the character turns it back on.
SPECIAL EFFECTS
The Power in FUZION system are explained in
games terms, a certain number of PP buys so many
dice of damage, etc. The special effects of a Power
define exactly how the Power works, what the Power
looks like, a dn any other incidental effects associated
with the powers use. Some times minor advantages
and Limitations are attached to the Power because of
its special effects.
A visible Power can be sensed by 3 different Sense
Groups. These normally include the Sight Sense Group
and hearing Sense Group, onlookers should be able to
see and hear any Power that is being used. The third
Sense Group should be based on the Powers special
effects.
ADJUSTMENT POWERS
These Power can adjust the powers and
Characteristics of a character of his target. The Power
work by adding to or subtracting from, the number of
Character Points in a power or in a Characteristic. To
apply an Adjustment Power against any Characteristic
or Power within a related group of special effects, one
Power at a time, is a -1d6/Lvl Power Advantage. The
adjustment Powers are: Absorption, Aid, Drain,
Transfer
MENTAL POWERS
WLL Attack Roll = WLL+Skill/Power vs
WLL+Skill/Power. Roll effect Dice - Defense = Effect.
Willing defenders can voluntarily lower their
MCV to 0, making it easier for a friendly mentalist to
lock on. END costs are paid when a Mental Power is
use, regardless of whether it is effective. All Mental
Powers are invisible to characters who dont
themselves have a Mental power or Mental Awareness.
Mental Powers can be used to attack any character
within the mentalists line of sight. The Mental Powers
are: Ego Attack, Mental Illusions, Mind Control, Mind
Scan, Telepathy.
MOVEMENT POWERS
Movement Powers are those Powers which help
the character get from place to place. Character begin
with MOVE x2m Running, MOVE x1m Swimming,
and MOVE x1m Leap, or they can be completely new
modes of movement, like flight or Teleportation.
Movement is divided into two categories: combat
POWERS
FUZION
2
movement and noncombat movement. A character
using combat movement retains his full DEX, and can
move at his normal movement rate.
In NCM (noncombat movement), the character is
concentrating on moving swiftly, not on avoiding
attacks. Accordingly, the characters movement rate is
doubled, but, he has only his DEX. The END costs
for Movement Powers is 1 END per 10m moved;
Gliding costs no END cost is equal to the END cost for
traveling at combat velocity. The Movement Powers
are: Flight, Gliding, Running Superleap, Swimming,
Swinging, Teleportation, Tunneling.
SIZE POWERS
The Size Powers, Shrinking and Growth, enable
the character to change his size. A targets size effects
the ability of attackers to spt and hit the target. Smaller
targets are harder to spot and hit; for every x as big
as a normal human, a target is -2 on all PERCEPTION
Rolls made against it and gets +2 DEX against all
attacks. Larger targets are easier to spot and hit; for
every x2 as big as a normal human, a target is +2 on
all PERCEPTION Rolls made against it and gets -2
DEX against all attacks.
As an optional rule, the GM can ignore the DEX
modifier in Hand to Hand combat. This rule adds
additional complication, but allows two character to
melee normally, no matter if they re very small or very
large. The Size powers are: Growth, Shrinking.
SPECIAL POWERS
Special Powers can be bought with all Standard
power Limitations and Advantages, but may not be
placed in Power Frameworks except with express
permission of the GM. They cannot, therefore, be
placed in an Elemental Control, Multi power, or
Variable Power Pool.
Special Powers do not cost END to use, and they
are assumed to be functioning useless the character
expressly chooses to turn them off. They function
normally when the character has been knocked
unconscious. The Special Powers are: Duplication,
Enhanced Senses, END Reserve, Extra Limbs, Flash
Defense, Instant Change, Knockback, Resistance, Lack
of Weakness, Mental Defense, Multiform, Mind Link,
Power Defense, Regeneration, Skills.
STANDARD POWERS
Standard Powers are the catch all for all the Power
that dont fit into one of the specific categories. Any
special rules concerning a Standard Power are
mentioned in that Powers description. The Standard
powers are: Armor, Characteristics, Clairsentience,
Clinging, Change Environment, Damage Resistance,
Damage Reduction, Darkness, Density Increase,
Desolidification, Dispel, Energy Blast, Entangle,
Extra-Dimensional Movement, Faster Than Light
Travel (FTL), Flash, Force Field, Force Wall, Hand to
Hand Attack, Images, Invisibility, Hand Killing
Attack, Ranged Killing Attack, Life Support, Missile
Deflection & Missile Reflection, Shape Shift,
Stretching, Stretching, Summon, Suppress,
Telekinesis, Transform.

ABSORPTION
With this Adjustment Power the character may
absorb the HITs/SPD damage of an attack and add that
energy, as character points, to a specific power or
Characteristic. Each 5 HITs/SPD becomes 1 Character
Point.
The total rolled on the Absorption dice is the
amount of HITs that the character can absorb from
incoming attacks in a single Phase. The maximum
number of points that can be added to any Power or
Characteristic is the maximum be added to any Power
or Characteristic is the maximum amount that can be
rolled on the dice (2d6 Absorption could Absorb a
maximum of 12 HITs/SPD).
When the character purchases Absorption, he
specifies whether it works versus energy or physical
attacks and where the absorbed CP (HITs/5) go. The
points can go either to a specific Characteristic or a
specific Power. The character may choose to set up a
ratio of Character Points between different
Characteristics or Powers. Absorption costs no END to
use.
The points gained from Absorption fade at the rate
of 1 CP/PP per Turn. This fade rate can be down on
the time chart for a -1d6/Lvl Advantage.
Absorption offers no defense against an attack; the
attack is applied normally against the characters
defenses after he has calculated his Absorption. If a
character wants to simulate Absorption as a defense,
he should buy defenses (as PD, ED, Force Field,
Armor, etc...) and then apply a +2d6/Lvls Limitation
Only up to amount rolled by Absorption.
< < Cost: 1PP for 1d6 of Absorption; 1 CP/PP lost per
Turn. Fade rate can be moved down the Time
Chart at a -1d6/Lvl Advantage per level. The
maximum amount that can be Absorbed is the
maximum amount that can be rolled on the dice.
This maximum can be increased by +10 per +1PP.
Minimum Cost is 3PP. Absorption costs no END
to use.
AID
With this Adjustment Power, a character may
increase one of his or someone elses Characteristics or
Powers. The cost is 1PP for 1d6 of Aid. The CP/5 of
Aid apply directly to the PP of the Power being Aided.
If the Aid raises the Characteristic or Power above its
starting value, the points gained by Aid fade at the rate
of 1 PP per Turn. This fade rate can be moved down on
the time chart for a -1d6/Lvl Advantage per level,
Character Points returned by Aid which restor
Characteristics or Power to their starting values do not
fade.
The maximum number of Character Points that
can be added to a specific Power or Characteristic is
equal to the highest number that could be rolled on the
Aid dice. This maximum can be increased by 10 points
for every 1PP spent. Aid which can only be used to
restore lost Characteristics or Powers can be bought
with a +2d6/Lvls Limitation. Aid has no range.
Even if two different characters use separate Aid
Powers, the maximum number of points that can be
healed or added to a target is equal to the largest
maximum that can be rolled on either Power. So, one
character with a 2d6 Aid can add 12 points to a target,
two characters, each with 1d6 Aid can only add 6
points to a target.
As an optional rule, the GM can simplify the
structure for standard healing by making the cost for
1d6 of healing cost 1PP. Each die of healing restores
1d6 of STUN or HITs. Such healing can only be used
to restore HITs or STUN up to starting values, and the
maximum that can be healed is still the maximum that
could be rolled on the dice.
< < Cost: 1PP for 1d6 of Aid; 1CP lost per Turn. Fade
rate can be moved down the Time chart at a -
1d6/Lvl Advantage per level. The maximum
amount that can be Aided is the maximum
amount that can be rolled on the dice. This
maximum can be increased by +10 per 1PP. Aid
which can only raise Characteristics or Powers to
starting values is bought with a +2d6/Lvls
Limitation. Minimum Cost is 2PP.
ARMOR
Withe this Standard Power a character buys fully
resistant Points of defense; that is KD or EKD that acts
against both STUN and Killing attacks.
The type of Armor defense must be specified when
the Armor is bought; for instance, if a character spent
7PP he could have 14 KD, 0 ED Armor, or 7 KD,
7EKD, or any other combination that totaled 14 points
of KD or EKD. This combination cannot be changed,
although a character can spend Experience Points to
add to existing Armor. Armor costs no END to use.
POWERS
FUZION

< < Cost: 1 PP for +2 KD or EKD of resistant defense.
Armor costs no END to use.
CHANGE ENVIRONMENT
A character with this Standard Power can cause
minor changes in the environment. The character
could, for example, create light in a certain area,
change the temperature, or set up an intense (but non
damaging) magnetic field. The character can change
the environment in a 1m hex for 1PP; this radius can
be doubled for +1PP. To use Change Environment
counts as a Constant attack, and the Power can be used
at range.
Change Environment cannot be used to duplicate
existing effects (like Darkness); moreover, it does not
have any direct effect on combat. However, Change
Environment can be used to affect Power Limitations
or character Disadvantages like Susceptibilities. At the
GMs option, Change Environment can have a slight
effect on combat (small minuses to PER rolls, REF,
etc....), according to the special effect and the exact
circumstances.
A character must specify the effects of Change
Environment when purchasing the Power. To be able
to vary the effects of Change Environment is a +4PP
Power Advantage. These varied effects must still fit
into a tight group of special effects, the character
cannot use the Power to create any environment.
< < Cost: 1 PP to change the environment in a single
1m hex, minimum cost is 2PP. X2 Radius for
+1PP. A character can vary the environment for a
+4PP Advantage. Maximum Range is Points x5m.
Change Environment is a Constant Power.
CHARACTERISTICS
Characteristics can be purchased with Power
Limitations, Power Advantages, and Power
Frameworks, just like Powers. For these purposes a
Characteristic should be treated as a Standard Power.
The cost is computed as if the Characteristic were a
Power.
If a Primary Characteristic is purchased with an
Advantage or Limitation, then all Derived Stats are
affected normally. However, any Figured
Characteristics gained from a Limited Primary
Characteristic automatically have the same
Limitations.
Characteristics bought with the Multi Power
Framework never add to Derived Characteristics.
Characteristics can only be bought within other Power
Frameworks with special permission from the GM.
Characteristics cannot normally buy back the
Derived Characteristics gained from Primary
Characteristics both with Power Limitations. If the GM
wants to allow this, he should proportion the points
bought back, according to the Limitation. For example,
if the characters DEX was purchased with a +4PP
Limitation, then any points gained by buying back the
characters SPD would have to be put through the
same Limitation. In any case, only one Figured
Characteristic may be bought back.
Primary Characteristics that dont affect Figured
Characteristics can be purchased with a +2CP/PP
Limitation. Obviously, this Limitation cannot be taken
on Primary Characteristics that cannot affect
Secondary Characteristics, like those in a Multi Power.
< < Cost: 1 PP for 1 CP of Characteristics. Primary
Characteristics that dont affect Figured
Characteristics can be purchased with a +2 CP/PP
Cost Effect. Obviously, this Limitation cannot be
taken on Primary Characteristics that cannot
affect Secondary Characteristics-like those in a
Multipower.
CLAIRSENTIENCE
With this Standard Power, one of a characters
senses (usually normal sight) works at a distance. It is
as if the character were standing some distance away
from this current position. Objects in the way wont
stop Clairsentience, but they make it more difficult for
a character to get his PERCEPTION point in the
desired spot.
A character with Clairsentience should think of
the PERCEPTION point as a spot he can put anywhere
within the range of his Clairsentience; he can then
perceive anything near the PERCEPTION point just as
if he were standing there himself. To have
Clairsentience with one sense costs 4PP. +1 additional
sense is +1PP, +1 Sense Group is +2PP. The
maximum range for Clairsentience is Total PP x25m;
this range can be doubled for +1PP.
Clairsentience can also be used to look through
time or into other dimensions. A character can look
either into either the past or the future for +4PP. A
character look into both the past and the future for
POWERS
FUZION
5
+8PP. A character can look into a related group of
dimensions for +4PP.
These last options, if permitted by the GM, can
have a powerful impact on the campaign. They should
never be completely reliable or something the
characters can count on. However, properly managed,
such Clairsentience can provide interesting plot
devices.
< < Cost: 4PP for the base PER Roll with one Sense.
+1PP per additional sense, +2PP per additional
Sense Group. Ability to see future +4PP; Ability to
see through past +4PP. Ability to see in other
dimensions +4PP. Maximum Range = PP x25m;
Max range can be doubled for +1PP.
CLINGING
With this Standard Power a character may cling to
walls and sheer surfaces, and move on them as if they
were level. The cost for cling is 2PP. While Clinging,
the character use his full STR to stick to the wall. This
total can be increased (above the characters STR); 3
CP of clinging STR costs 1PP.
If an opponent wants to pull clinging character
from a surface, he must exceed the characters total
Cling STR in a STR vs STR check; otherwise the
character cannot be pulled free. A character with Cling
also subtracts 1d6 from al Knockback Rolls, so long as
he is in contact with a solid surface.
Movement across a surface is the same as normal
ground movement, but moving up a wall uses 2m of
ground movement to move 1m up. Clinging costs no
END to use, but the character must pay END for
normal movement.
< < Cost: 2PP for ability to exert characters normal
STR; +3 Clinging STR for 1PP. Minimum Cost
2PP. Clinging costs no END to use.
DAMAGE REDUCTION
Characters with this Standard Power are tougher
than normal characters; only part of any damage that
gets through their defenses is applied against their
STUN or HITS. Damage Reduction is purchased
separately for each type of attack (Physical, Energy, or
Mental), is listed as a percentage (25%, 50%, 75%),
and must be defined as being Killing or Stun.
Every time a character is hit by an attack he
applies his defenses normally. If the Damage
Reduction applies to the attack, the character then
takes the remaining damage and applies his Damage
Reduction. A character with 25% Damage Reduction
takes 1/4 less damage from every attack. Stun Damage
Reduction acts against normal, AVLD, and NND
attacks. Resistant Damage Reduction affects normal,
AVLD, NND, and Killing Attacks.
< < Cost: Stun Damage Reduction; 2PP for 25%, 4PP
for 50%, and 8PP for 75%. Killing Damage
Reduction; 3PP for 25%, 6PP for 50%, and 12PP
for 75%. Damage Reduction costs no END to use.
DAMAGE RESISTANCE
With this Standard Power, the character may use
some or all of his normal SD or ED against Killing
Attacks. Damage Resistance doesnt add to the
characters defenses, it just enables him to use his
existing defenses against Killing Attacks.
< < Cost: 1PP for 10 KD or EKD. Damage Resistance
must be bought with all the Power Advantages of
the defense it is bought for. Damage Resistance
costs no END to use.
DARKNESS
With this Standard Power, the character may
create a field that is impervious to one sense (usually
normal sight). The Darkness fills a 2m hex; +2m of
radius costs 2PP. A Darkness can be made impervious
to additional senses; +1 sense costs +1PP, +1 sense
Group costs +2PP. Darkness is a Constant Power, it
will remain as long as the character continues to pay
the END for it.
A character in a darkness field, who cannot
perceive his opponents, is DEX, REF in Hand to
Hand , and 0 REF at ranged attacks. If the character
can make a non targeting PERCEPTION Roll then he
is only -1 DEX, REF in Hand to Hand, and REF
at ranged attacks.
A Darkness field is usually targeted on a hex, and
is thus immobile. A character can create a darkness
field upon himself; the Darkness will then move with
the character. To create a Darkness that will move
with another character requires the use of the Power
Advantage Usable Against Others.
The character who casts a Darkness field cannot
automatically see through the field. To do so, he
should buy the appropriate Enhanced Senses or the
POWERS
FUZION
6
Power Advantage Personal Immunity.
< < Cost: 2PP for 2m radius Darkness, minimum cost
2PP. This is impervious to one sense. Impervious
to each additional sense, +1PP; impervious to each
additional Sense Group, +2PP. +2m radius for
+2PP. Range = 25x PP in 2m hexes.
DENSITY INCREASE
With this Standard Power, a character may
become stronger and physically tougher by increasing
his density. Density Increase adds to the characters
STR, SD, and ED without changing the characters
appearance; however, the character must pay END
every Phase.
The character does not get any figured
Characteristics for the STR. The minuses for
Knockback function exactly like Knockback
Resistance.
< < Cost: 1PP for +1 STR, +1SD (nonresistant) and
+1ED (nonresistant), -2m Knockback, and 2x
mass. Minimum cost is 2PP.
DESOLIDIFATION
A character using this Standard Power can become
insubstantial, allowing him to walk through walls and
ignore attacks. To buy base Desolidification cost 8PP.
When this Power is used, the character is immune to
all Physical and energy attacks; the character is also
immune to such things as Power Drain, Flash, or NND
attacks. However, the character must define the special
effects of a reasonably common group of attacks that
will affect him while he is desolid.
Desolid characters can also be affected by Mental
Powers. For a desolid character to be immune to
Mental Powers costs +4PP/ All desolid characters can
be affected by Presence attacks or attacks bought with
the Power Advantage Affects Deolidified. Desolid
Characters cannot automatically affect each other,
unless their Powers have similar special effects.
In General, desolid characters have no impact on
the physical world. When using Desolidification, a
character will not register on Sonar or Radar, and he
emits no scent. The character can also move through
walls and other solid objects at his normal movement
rate, unless the walls were bought with the Affects
Desolidified Objects power Advantage. A desolidified
character is still visible, but he looks somewhat hazy.
Of course, there are some problems with being
desolid, he wont be able to breathe unless he has
appropriate Life Support. Desolidification doesnt
automatically allow the character to walk on air; to do
that, he has to buy Flight.
When a character is desolidified, he cant affect
the physical world in any way; he may launch no
attacks of any kind. If a character wants to attack, he
will have to become solid.
A character who wants to use a Power to affect the
physical world while the characters stays desolid must
buy that Power with a Power Advantage Affects
Physical World, which is a -8d6/Lvls Advantage. A
Power bought with this Advantage can be used both
when the character is solid and when he is desolid.
Characters who can become desolid and still affect the
physical world can be very powerful, and the GM
should carefully review characters with such Powers
before letting them into a campaign.
Desolidification that does not allow the character
to walk through solid objects should be bought with a
-2PP Limitation.
Desolidification can also be used to simulate
characters who can create an astral form. With this
special effect, the character leaves a physical body
behind when he turns desolid, and either form can take
damage. If the character is knocked out, the soul will
return to the physical body. This type of
Desolidfication should be purchased with a -4PP
Limitation.
< < Cost: 8PP to ignore physical attacks and move
through physical objects at normal movement rate.
Desolidified characters must be vulnerable to a
reasonably common group of Powers; they are also
affected by Presence attacks, Mental powers, and
attacks that are bought with the Power Advantage
Affects Desolidified. Desolid characters can be
immune to Mental Powers for +4PP. Characters
that cannot move through solid objects should
purchase Desolidfication with a -2PP Limitation;
characters that leave a physical body behind them
while desolid should buy Desolidification with a -
4PP Limitation. Any power that can affect the
physical world while the character is desolid must
be bought with a +8PP Power Advantage.
DISPEL
With Standard power a character can turn off the
POWERS
FUZION
7
Power of another character. Dispel is all or nothing;
that is, it either completely turns off a Power or it has
no effect. To use Dispel, the character must
successfully hit his target. If successful, the attacker
rolls and totals the Dispel dice and subtracts the
targets Power Defense (if any). If the remaining total
exceeds the Active Point total of the target Power, the
target Power is Dispelled; that is, it stops working if
the victim of the Dispel wants to restart the Power, he
can, but he must start from scratch-any preparations
must be performed again. Obviously, Dispel is more
effective against Powers that are difficult to turn on or
take a long time to activate (like many fantasy spells).
If the target of the Dispel is an Independent power
in an object or item, the total of the Dispel must exceed
the total Power Points (x5) of all the Powers within the
item. If the Dispel does exceed the total Power Points
(x5) of all Powers within the item, the item is broken
and cannot be fixed.
Dispel can be used to protect the character from
incoming powers, but the character must have a saved
an action to do this. Assuming that the Dispel applies
to the attack, the character aborts his action to use the
Dispel and rolls the Dispel dice (without having to
make an Attack Roll). The attack is Dispelled if the
total of the Dispel dice exceeds that Power Points (x5)
in the attack.
Dispel normally applies to only a single Power,
like Teleportation or Energy Blast. To buy a Dispel
that affects any power of a given special effect (like
fantasy magic), one at a time, is a -1d6/Lvl Power
Advantage.
A Dispel which affects all the Powers of a given
special effect must be bought with a -8d6/Lvl
Advantage. Dispel can be used to dispel any Power,
even Dispel.
< < Cost: 2PP for 1d6. Affects any single Power of a
certain special effect is a -1d6/Lvl Power
Advantage; Affects all Powers of a certain special
effects is a -8d6/Lvl Advantage. Max Range =
Points x 3m.
DRAIN
A character with this Adjustment Power can
temporarily lower the value of an opponents
Characteristic or Power. 1d6 of Drain costs 2PP.
To use a Drain, the character must make a
successful Attack Roll. If successful, total the Drain
dice and subtract the targets Power Defense. The total
remaining is the number of Active Points lost from the
affected Power or Characteristics.
Drained Character Points return at the rate of 5 PP
per Turn. This return rate can be moved down on the
time chart for a -1d6/Lvl Advantage per level. By
moving the return rate far down the Time Chart, it is
possible to effectively destroy an opponents
Characteristic or Power. There is no limit to the
amount f CP/PP that a character can Drain from his
victim.
Cost: 2PP for 1d6 of Drain; drained points return
1 CP/PP per Turn. Return rate can be moved down the
Time chart at a -1d6/Lvl per level. Minimum Cost is
2PP.
DUPLICATION
A character with this Special power can create
duplicates of himself. Each duplicate is as free willed
as the original character, and the player can run each
Duplicate simultaneously.
The player must make up a different full character
for each different form the character can take. The
character must choose one of the forms to be base
form; this will be the one built on the most total points.
The maximum total points the second and
succeeding forms can each have is equal to the total
points in the base form, minus the Duplication cost.
Each new form should be built on the same
guidelines as the base character. For example, if the
base character starts with 5 SP, and a maximum of 150
OP in Complications, the new form should be built
within these same constraints.
Duplication costs no END. It takes 1 action to
create a Duplicate, and a full Phase to recombine, no
matter how many Duplicates are created or
recombined. Both Duplicates must be DEX and
touching each other to recombine. Duplicates have no
special Psychic Link; they must communicate by
talking.
When two Duplicates recombine, their HITS,
STUN END, Charges, and END Reserves are averaged
between them. If one Duplicate was Stunned, then the
combined character will be Stunned. If the maximum
loss of STUN is greater than the combined Characters
CON, then the combined character is Stunned. If one
Duplicate is Killed, he cant be revived by combining;
he stays dead. The character has lost a part of himself.

< < Cost: 2 PP of every 25 CP/OP possessed by second
form, minimum cost 4PP. Each additional form
costs 1 PP for every 25 CP/OP`, minimum cost is
2 PP. No form can have more total points than the
total points of the base character minus the costs
for Duplication. Duplication costs no END to use.
EGO ATTACK
A character with this Mental power can directly
attack another characters mind. After making an
Attack Roll based on Mental Combat Value, the
attacker roles 1d6 of damage for every 2PP in Ego
Attack. The target subtracts his Mental Defense and
takes any remaining damage as STUN. Ego Attacks
are STUN only, have no effect on inanimate objects,
and do no Knockback.
< < Cost: 2PP for every 1d6 damage, minimum cost is
2PP. Ego Attack has no range modifier, and
requires line of sight.
END RESERVE
A character with this Special Power can set up an
independent reserve of Endurance that will provide
END to run powers. This END Reserve can simulate
the generator and batteries of a suit of Power armor,
the reserves of a magical want, or any other effect
where the energy does not come from a characters
own END.
The END can be thought of as the storage capacity
for the Reserve, while the REC is the recharge rate.
The END Reserve normally recovers its REC in END
each Turn. This return rate can be moved down one
level on the time chart for a +100 END Limitation on
the REC; END Reserves cannot recover more
frequently than once per Turn.
The REC in an END Reserve is independent of the
character: it continues to recharge even if the character
is unconscious or preoccupied. Moreover, unlike
personal END, the END in an END Reserve is not lost
if the character is knocked out.
A character with an END Reserve must decide
which powers draw energy from the Reserve, and
which draw energy from his personal END. A Power
can normally only draw energy from one or the other-it
cant switch from one energy source to another. A
Power that can draw END from either the characters
personal END or the End Reserve is bought with a -
1d6/Lvl Power Advantage.
The END Reserve can be bought with power
Limitations; if the END Reserve does not function for
any reason, then no END can be drawn from it. In this
case, any power which draws Energy from the END
Reserve cannot be used. A character can have back up
End Reserves by purchasing this Power more than
once.
< < Cost: 1PP for 50 END, 1 PP for 5 REC. END
Reserve costs no END to use.
ENERGY BLAST
A character with this Standard Power can attack
at range. To use an Energy Blast, the character states
his target and makes an Attack Roll. If the roll is
successful, the attacker rolls 1d6 for every 1PP in
Energy Blast as a normal attack against the target.
The exact nature of the energy in the blast is left
up to the character. The energy should be specified
when the a power is purchased; it can be lightning,
blasters, lasers, sonic, icy cold, cosmic energy, magic,
or whatever else fits the character. Energy Blasts can
even be applied against Physical Defense instead of
Energy Defense (for example, force beams or chunks
of rock).
Energy Blast may be defined as a STUN only
attack against PD or ED; this is useful if a character
wants to knock out opponents without causing serious
injury. Energy Blast can also be spread to get a bonus
on REF, or to cover slightly larger area. The maximum
range for Energy Blast is 25x PP in 2m hexes.
< < Cost: 1PP for 1d6 of Energy Blast, minimum cost
2PP. Maximum range 25x PP in 2m hexes.
ENHANCED SENSES
These Special Powers give a character the ability
to sense things beyond the range of normal human
senses. A character can buy several Enhanced Senses
to reflect a wide array of senses.
For ease of organization, all the senses have been
grouped into Sense Groups. These Sense Groups also
have import effects on the ways certain Powers work.
< < Sight: Normal Sight, IR, UV
< < Hearing: Radio Listen, Radio Listen and Transmit, High Range
Radio, Radar
< < Smell/Taste: Normal Smell, Discriminatory Smell, Tracking
Scent, Normal Taste, Discriminatory Taste
< < Unusual Senses: Spatial Awareness*, Unusual Detects* N-Ray
Vision
POWERS
FUZION

< Mental: Mind Scan, Mental Awareness
*Note that many Detects will usually be grouped
according to the senses special effect.
< < Active Sonar: With this sense, the character emits high frequency
sound that bounces off nearby objects and returns to him. This
allows the character to sense nearby objects and can compensate
for normal blindness. The character cannot see fine detail, like
print or paper or colors. The high frequency pings can be heard by
anyone with Ultrasonic Hearing. Sonar is directional; it does not
allow sensing in 360 degrees. Sonar is a Targeting Sense. Cost:
3PP.
< Discriminatory Sense: The character can make a PER roll to
absolutely identify and analyze an object with certain sense.
Discriminatory Sense can be bought several times to cover several
senses. All normal human have this for sight and hearing, but not
other senses. Cost: 1PP
< Enhanced PERCEPTION: This gives a bonus to PER Rolls.
Cost: +1 for all Senses 1PP, +2 with one Sense Group 1PP. It can
be bought several times.
< High Range Radio Hearing: The character can hear and
transmit up and down the radio and television communications
bands. He can also sense radar emissions. The character may
search for a specific frequency with a INT roll vs 15+. Cost: 2PP
< Infrared Vision: The character can see heat patterns and traces.
The character has normal PER Rolls at night, but can only
perceive outlines of people and objects. Cold objects will be very
dark, while hot things may be blindingly bright. Cost: 1PP
< Mental Awareness: The character sense the use of Mental
Powers. A character with Mental Awareness can see both the user
and the target of Mental Attacks that are used in the characters
line of sight. Cost: 1PP
< Microscopic Vision: The character can view nearby objects at
10x magnification. This allows the character to notice features
that are too fine or too small for the naked eye. Microscopic
Vision may be bought more than once; the second time allows the
character to view things at 100x, the third time 1000x, etc... Cost:
1PP
< N-Ray Vision: The character can make normal sight PER Rolls
through most materials. The character must define a reasonably
common substance that his N-Ray Vision cant see through. For
example, a character could define the vision as X-ray vision,
which couldnt see through lead, gold, or Force Fields. Cost: 4PP
< Radar Sense: With this sense, the character emits radio waves
that bounce off objects and return to him. This allows him to sense
nearby objects and can compensate for normal blindness.
However, the character cannot sense fine details, and his radio
emissions can be noticed by anyone with High Range Radio
Hearing. Radar is directional; it does not allow sensing in 360
degrees. Radar is a targeting sense. Cost: 3PP
< Radio Hearing: The character can hear local AM, FM, and
Police band signals. Cost: 1PP
< Radio Listen and Transmit: The character can hear and
transmit on local AM, FM, and Police band signals. Cost: 1PP
< Range: This allows a character to use a nonranged sense at range.
For example, a character who bought this for his sense of taste
would be able to taste objects at a range. The character can also
make a PER Roll with the sense, with normal penalties for range.
Cost: 1PP for one sense, and 2PP for all the senses in a Sense
Group.
< Spatial Awareness: The character can sense his surroundings
without having any contact with them. A character with this sense
can operate normally in total darkness or while blinded, but
cannot sense fine details. Spatial Awareness can simulate a wide
variety of special effects, from mystical awareness to passive
sonar or molecular analysis. Spatial Awareness is directional; it
does not allow sensing in 360 degrees. Spartial Awareness is a
targeting sense. Cost: 5PP
< Targeting Sense: The character can use a nontargeting sense as
a targeting sense to locate targets in combat. Targeting Sense can
be bought with any normal or special sense. For normal humans,
sight is the only sense that can be used for targeting purposes. Not
that although a sense may be targeting, it does not completely
compensate for sight. A character with Targeting hearing, for
example, would be unable to read printed material or discern
colors. Cost: 4PP
< Telescopic Sense: The character can define a point at a distance,
and sense at that point clearly. For every 1PP the character
receives a +2 to PER Rolls which can only be used to cancel
range penalties. Telescopic Sense only aids the character with a
single Sense Group. A character could purchase Telescopic Sense
more than once for more than one Sense Group. Telescopic Sense
does not help the character sense or identify an object, it just
brings it closer. As such, it has no effect on senses that have no
range. Cost: 1PP for +2 to offset Range penalties on one Sense
Group only. Telescopic Sense may be purchased more than once.
< Tracking Scent: The character can track someone or something
by scent with a successful smell PERCEPTION Roll. Modifiers
for time and circumstance will alter this roll tremendously. Cost:
2PP
< Ultrasonic Hearing: The character can hear very high and very
low frequency sounds. Ultrasonic Hearing enables the character
to hear dog whistles and to spot Active Sonar. Cost: 1PP
< Ultraviolet Vision: the character sees at night as well as he does
during the day. This assumes there is some UV light is coming
from the stars. If there is no UV light (inside a cave) then the
character gains no advantage. Cost: 1PP
< 360 Degree Sensing: The character can make a PER Roll
against any point around him; this makes it much more difficult
to surprise the character. The character can have his full DEX
against perceived threats. Cost: 2PP if bought for all the
characters senses in one Sense Group, and 5 PP if bought for all
the characters senses.
DETECT
This is an Enhanced Sense that the character can
define. Detects can also be bought with Targeting,
Parabolic, Range, Discriminatory, or 360 Degrees.
< < Cost: 1PP requires a Phase to use, has no range,
and uses normal PER Rolls. The PER Roll can be
increased +2 per +1PP. Detect will indicate the
presence of a subject with a PER Roll. A Detect
can be turned into a Sense for +1PP. The
character can use Sense without a Phase action.
The sense may be set off by contact at any time.
ENTANGLE
A character with this Standard Power can restrain
an opponent or create a barrier. An Entanglement
POWERS
FUZION
10
could be such things as webbing, ice bonds, or just
turning the ground to mud. Each 1d6 Entangle costs
2PP. To use an Entangle, make a normal ranged
Attack Roll against the target. If the roll is successful,
roll the Entangle dice, and read them like normal dice
looking for the HITs total. The total number of HITs is
the SPD of the Entangle. The Defense (both KD and
EKD) of an Entangle is equal to the amount of PP in
Entangle (or 1 DEF per 1d6 of Entangle). This DEF is
resistant.
To escape, the entangled character must do
sufficient HITs to exceed the Entangles Defenses and
destroy the Entangles HITs. Once the HITs in the
Entangle has been destroyed, the character is free.
If an attack against an Entangle does twice the
remaining HITs of the Entangle or more, then the
attacker may take two actions. If an attack against an
Entangle does the remaining HITs of the Entangle or
more, then the attacker may take a single action. If an
attack against an Entangle does less than the
remaining HITs of the Entangle then the attacker may
take no more actions this Phase.
A character who is Entangled cant MOVE; he
generally has his arms and legs pinned, giving him a
DEX of 0. Characters with Energy Blast could still use
their Energy Blast to break out. Characters who have
their attacks through Accessible Foci will probably be
unable to use those attacks to help them out of the
Entangle, depending on the special effects of the
Focus.
When the Entangled character is attacked. The
Entangle absorbs STUN and HITs equal to the total of
its DEF+HITs, then the Entangled characters the
remaining damage normally.
An Entangle may also be used to create a wall in
one hex, depending on the special effects of the
Entangle. To create an Entangle over an area, use the
Area Effect Power Advantage. The range for Entangles
is PP x25 2m hexes.
< Entangle Stops a Given Sense: Entangles can be purchased so
they are impervious to certain senses. One sense costs +1PP, one
Sense Group +2PP.
< Entangle Takes No Damage From Attack: This -2d6/Lvls
Advantage represents an Entangle that is transparent to attacks.
< Entangle and Character Both Take Damage: This -1d6/Lvl
Advantage represents an Entangle that does not protect the
Entangled character. Both take damage.
< Entangle with Backlash: This -2d6/Lvls Advantage represents
an Entangle that will reflect back any internal attacks. If the
Entangle is destroyed by an attack, the attack will not reflect.
< Entangle with No Defense: This +6d6/Lvls Limitation
represents an Entangle that may be bought with no DEF, only
HITs. This Limitation can be used to simulate an Entangle that
anyone can get out of, given time.
< Entangle with 1 HIT: This +2d6/Lvls Limitation means that the
Entangle is brittle; it has a normal DEF, only 1 HIT. If the
attacker exceeds the DEF by 1, the Entangle goes down; if he
exceeds its DEF by 2, the Entangle goes down and the attacker
has a full Phase remaining.
< < Cost: 2 PP for 1d6, 1 DEF of Entangle; minimum cost 2PP. See
above.
EXTRA DIMENSIONAL MOVEMENT
This Standard Power is the ability to travel form
one dimension to another. Normally, a character with
Extra Dimensional Movement can only move himself
and his clothing. If a character wishes to use this
Power on others, without using it on himself, he must
use the power Advantages Usable By Other or Usable
Against Others. Extra Dimensional Movement does
not give the character any enhanced movement in our
world; a character in New York cannot transport
himself to Valhalla and then back to Tokyo. The GM
should either say that characters return to earth in the
same location that they left it, or that they have only
traveled as far as they traveled in the alternate
dimension.
This Power is extremely tricky, and can be
difficult to use in a campaign setting. The GM must
regulate Extra Dimensional Movement in some
fashion; otherwise it will be used every time that the
characters get into trouble. At the very least, this
Power should be unreliable-if the character misses a
Skill or Activation Roll, he will be transported off
course to another dimension. This Power is best used
by the GM when it fits into his plans; otherwise it
should be strictly regulated or disallowed altogether.
< < Cost: 4PP to transport character to a single other
dimension. 6PP for related group of dimensions;
8PP for any dimension. Travel through time for
+4PP. x2 mass for +1PP.
EXTRA LIMBS
A character with this Special Power has one or
more usable extra limbs, like a prehensile tail or extra
arms. Extra Limbs have no direct effect on combat, but
the extra limbs can be used to perform maneuvers not
possible to bipedal humans (like holding someone and
then punching him, or hanging from the ceiling from
a tail). Characters that use Extra Limbs creatively can
POWERS
FUZION
11
receive a bonus for surprise maneuvers.
Having an Extra Limb does not allow the
character extra attacks in a Phase, an all limbs but the
primary limb are considered to be the off hand. (If the
character is ambidextrous, then all the limbs are
considered to be the good hand). Extra Limbs costs no
END, but the character must pay the normal END cost
when using Strength with the limb.
< < Cost: 1PP has any number of Extra Limbs. Extra
Limbs costs no END, but using STR with the
Extra Limb has the normal END cost.
FASTER THAN LIGHT TRAVEL
This Standard Power is the ability to travel faster
than light when in space, for a base cost of 2PP. A
character may only travel faster than light in space,
never in atmosphere. The GM can assume that it takes
some time to get up to full FTL speeds.
For the base of 2PP a character can travel at a max
speed equal to precisely the speed of light, that is one
light year per year. 4x velocity cost 1PP.
< < Cost: 2PP for FTL travel, 4x FTL velocity for
+1PP; minimum cost 2PP. FTL Travel costs no
END
FLASH
A character with this Standard Power can flash an
opponents senses (usually sight). A flashed sense is
temporarily disabled. Each 1d6 of Flash costs 2PP,
regardless f how many senses the flash will affect.
Flash normally affects a single Sense. +1 Sense costs
+1PP; +1 Sense Group costs +2PP. Flash has a range
of 25x PP.
To use a Flash, make a normal ranged Attack Roll
against the target. If the roll is successful, roll the
Flash dice, and read them like normal dice looking for
the total HITs, minus the targets Flash Defense, is the
number of Phases that the targets sense is disabled.
These Phases are the targets Phases; a high SPD
character will recover more quickly form Flash than a
low SPD one.
Although the target of a Flash takes no STUN or
HITs, he is blinded, or deafened, etc. A Flashed
character who cannot perceive hi opponens with a
targeting sense, is DEX, REF in Hand to Hand,
and 0 REF at range. Most characters are only blinded
by flashes that affect normal sight; although a
character depends on Sonar can find himself blinded
by a Flash that affected that Sense.
The GM may wish to allow characters who are
prepared for a Flash attack to take defensive actions
that can reduce the effects of the Flash.
< < Cost: 2 PP for 1d6 of Flash; minimum cost 4 PP.
+1 Sense for +1PP, +1 Sense Group for +2PP. The
maximum range is 25x PP.
FLASH DEFENSE
This Special Power lessens the effect of Flash
attacks on the character. For every 1PP the character
can purchase 5 points of Flash Defense that protects a
certain Sense Group against Flash. A character can
buy more than one Flash defense to protect more than
one Sense Group. The character subtracts one Phase
from the number of Phases he would be flashed for
every point of appropriate Flash Defense.
< < Cost: 1PP for every 5 points of Flash Defense to
protect a single Sense Group. Minimum Cost 1PP.
Flash Defense costs no END to use.
FLIGHT
A character with this Movement Power can fly
through the air. At base level, the character can fly at
10m per Phase for 2PP. With Flight, the character can
hover in place, gain altitude, etc.. The character can
increase his combat velocity by 5m for every 1PP
spent. The character can double his noncombat Flight
velocity for +1PP.
There are many different special effects for Flight:
jetpacks, wings, antigravity, magnetic repulsion,
energy trails, and sheer force of will. Some of these
special effects involve a Focus Limitation; wings, for
instance, can be bought as several different kind of
Focus.
< < Cost: 1PP for 5m of Flight, minimum cost is 2PP.
2x maximum NCM velocity for +1PP. The END
is 1 END for every 10m of Flight.
FORCE FIELD
A character with this Standard Power can create
a field around himself that absorbs damage. The
character gets 5 points of resistant defense (either KD
or EKD) for each 1PP invested. The type of Force
Field defense (KD or EKD) must chosen when the
POWERS
FUZION
12
Force Field is bought. The ratio of points in KD and
EKD stays the same, even when the Force Field is used
at lower power
A Force Field only protects the character with the
Power. It doesnt protect anything or anyone the
character is carrying, the Force Field functions
identically to a protective costume. Force Fields dont
hinder any of the characters attacks.
< < Cost: 1PP for every 5 points of resistant defense
(KD or EKD), minimum cost is 2PP.
FORCE WALL
A character with this Standard Power can set up
a wall. This wall protects with 2 points of fully
resistant defense (either KD or EKD) for every 1PP
invested. The Force Wall protects 2m (three hex sides)
for every 1PP. This can be increased +4m for +1PP.
The maximum range is the total PP x25 2m hexes.
A Force Wall acts like a real wall; attacks wont
penetrate in either direction until the Force Walls
appropriate Defense is exceeded. This means that a
character cant effectively shoot through his own Force
Wall.
Force Walls cover a number of hexes at range; any
characters behind the Force Wall get the protection of
the Force Wall. The hexes protected must be
connecting, and they must form a simple geometric
pattern. If the ends of the Force Wall are connected the
top and bottom are considered covered.
A full width Force Wall is 2m height. For every
+2m the walls gains in height, it loses 2m in length.
Attacks treat Force Walls like real walls that have
0 BDY. An attack must blow down the Force Wall to
continue to its target. If the attack doesnt break the
Force Wall, then no STUN or HITs get through. If the
attack does break the Force Wall, then subtract the
walls appropriate defense from the HITs and STUN of
the attack and apply the remaining damage to the
target normally.
Usually a Force Wall is destroyed if it takes more
HITs damage than it has in the appropriate defense.
For example, a 20 KD/0 EKD Force Wall would be
destroyed if it took 1 Hit of Energy damage. A Force
Wall can be made transparent to one category of attack
by buying the entire Force Wall with the -2d6/Lvls
Advantage. Of course, the Force Walls transparent
defense should be 0.
Someone enveloped by a Force Wall may break
through by exceeding the appropriate defense of the
force Wall. The Force Wall then goes down, and may
not be restored until its creatorss next Phase.
Like Force Field, the proportion of the Force Wall
in KD and EKD must be chosen when the Power is
bought. If the Force Wall is created at range, then the
character must target the wall with an Attack Roll
based on the DEX of the hex, including range
penalties.
Force Walls normally have no effect on senses,
although visible, they are completely transparent. A
Force Wall can be made opaque to one sense for +1PP;
it can be made opaque to one Sense Group for +2::.
Force Walls are usually immobile; once set up they
stay in place. A character can make himself the center
of the Force Wall; the Force Wall will then move with
him. However, such moving Force Walls have 0 STR,
they cannot be used for pushing people aside or
performing a Move Through.
Force Walls can be bought with the Power
Limitation Feedback. When a Force Wall with
Feedback takes damage, its owner takes the same
amount, with the Force Walls defenses applied as a
Force Field. For example, if an 18 KD Force Wall that
had Feedback took 12 HITs and 48 STUN damage, the
character would suffer 0 HITs and 30 STUN, which
would be applied against his other defenses. Feedback
is a +8 KD or EKD Limitation..
< < Cost: 1PP for every 2 points of resistant defense,
minimum cost 2PP. The width is equal to 2m per
1PP. +2m width cost 1PP. To make a Force Wall
opaque to a Sense +1PP; to a Sense Group costs
+2PP. To make a Force Wall transparent to either
Energy or Physical attacks is a -4 KD or EKD
Advantage. Feedback is a +8KD or EKD
Limitation. The max range is equal to PP x25
hexes (2m each).
GLIDING
A character with this Movement Power can glide
through the air. A Gliding character has some control
over his movement, but not the total control provided
by Flight. The character can glide 10m per Phase for
every 1PP; the minimum cost is 1PP.
Gliding has some restrictions; a character must
drop 2m per Phase to maintain his forward Gliding
velocity. Gliding acceleration is +2m velocity per 2m
of altitude lost.
POWERS
FUZION
13
From the ground, a characters starts with a
velocity and altitude equal to his upward leap in
meters. Gaining altitude is under the GMs control;
doing it slowly by using thermal updrafts is usually
easy. Gliding can be more useful if the character has
some Superleap or a strong friend to throw him into
the air for initial altitude. Gliding costs no END to use.
< < Cost: 1 PP for 10m Gliding, minimum cost of
1PP. x2 maximum NCM for +1PP. Gliding costs
no END.
GROWTH
A character with this Size Power can increase his
size, which increases his STR and other
Characteristics. Growth adds to the characters STR,
BDY/HITs, STUN, Mass, and Height. It reduces his
REF and Knockback.
Growth adds some other qualities, see examples.
The sizes re only approximate; the character can be
anywhere from the height listed to one level below his
current level (though all other effects remain the
same).
Growth increases a characters reach; that is, the
character can now hit targets that are more than one
hex away. Normal characters can only hit targets in the
adjacent hexes. With enough Growth, the character
can engage in combat with targets that are some
distance away.
While Growth has many advantages, theres some
problems with it, too. Even with only 3PPs of Growth,
the character cant fit into most normal buildings
unless he kneels or destroys part of the building.
If the character takes damage when hes Grown,
and then shrinks back to normal size, the damage
taken come out of the extra he gets for Growth.
However, if he Grows again before that damage would
have healed, the would reappear.
For more accuracy, figure out what percentage of
a characters total HITs he lost when hes Grown, and
then apply that same percentage when hes normal
size.
< < Cost: Every 1 PP of Growth gives the character:
x2 Mass, +1 STR, -2m Knockback, +1 BDY (+5
STUN/HITs), +1 STUN. Every 3 PPS of Growth
gives the character: -2 DEX, +2 vs all PER Rolls
against the character, x2 Height and Width.
HAND TO HAND ATTACK
A character with this Standard Power can increase
the amount of normal damage he does in hand to hand
combat. Normally, a character does 1d6 for every STR
point; this total can be modified by combat maneuvers.
This Power adds directly to the damage done by the
characters hand to hand attacks.
HA can only be used to add to a characters hand
to hand damage: it cant be used to increase an HKA,
NND, etc... Moreover, HA cant be used by itself; it
only adds to a characters attack. Thus if, a character
was tied up so that he couldnt use his STR, he would
also be unable to use his HA. HA damage is applied
after all bonuses or penalties for the combat maneuver.
< < Cost: 1PP for +1d6 to hand to hand damage.
IMAGES
A character with this Standard Power produces
images that are visible to the senses of everyone who
can sense them. The images cannot cause any physical
effects and are totally intangible. To project an Image,
the character decides what image to produce, where to
produce the image, and what actions the image will
perform. He then makes a normal Attack Roll to place
the Image in the target hex. All characters with a line
of sight or appropriate enhanced senses notice the Roll,
modified by any pluses for the Images Power and any
minuses for the complexity of image. The more
complex the Image, the greater bonus a viewer gets to
recognize the Image as a fake. [+0 Solid Simple
Images (A stationary object; a single musical note, or
odor. -2 Simple Movements, Sounds, Smells,
Sensations (A ball rolling; a simple melody). -4
Complex Movements, Sounds, Smells, Sensations (A
man walking, a conversation, the smells of a
hamburger). -6 Multiple, Interacting Images, Sounds,
Smells, Sensations (A football team in action, an

the illusions can be doubled for -1d6/Lvl Power
Advantage.
INSTANT CHANGE
A character with this Special Power can instantly

change from one identity to another and back again.
The character can change into one other set of clothes
for 1PP. The character can change into any set of
clothes he wants for 2PP. This is a useful Power for
getting a character with a Secret ID into the fight
without an awkward search for a telephone booth or
restroom.
< < Cost: 1PP for changing identifies and back to the
same clothes, 2PP for changing into any set of
clothes.
INVISIBILITY
A character with this Standard Power can become
invisible to one sense for 4PP. This can be broadened
to include additional senses: each additional sense is a
+1PP; each additional Sense Group costs +2PP.
Invisible characters cant be spotted with the affected
sense, but can be located by using other senses.
Invisible have a fringe around them. An invisible
character with a fringe may be spotted with a normal
PER Roll with the affected sense at a range of 2m or
less. Invisibility can have no fringe effect for +2PP.
If an opponent cannot make a successful PER
Roll, then he is at REF in Hand to Hand and 0 REF
at range. If the opponent can make a nontargeting PER
Roll, he is at REF in Hand to Hand and REF at
range.
The attacker can try to make a new PER Roll each
Phase to find the Invisible target. If the attacker turns
his attention somewhere else, he must make a new
PER Roll to reacquire the Invisible target.
< < Cost: 4PP for Invisibility to one Sense, minimum
cost is 4PP. +1PP for each additional Sense; +2PP
for each Sense Group. No Fringe +2PP
HAND KILLING ATTACK
A character with this Standard Power can use a
Killing Attack in Hand to Hand combat. This Power
can be used to simulate a wide variety of attacks: a
knife, claws, even a laser sword. The characters gets
1d6 Killing Attack for every 1PP invested. A character
gets +1d6 for every point of STR used with a HKA. A
character cant add more damage dice for STR than he
has dice of Killing Attack.
The damage of Killing Attacks ignores normal
defenses and is only stopped by resistant defenses. A
character must define his type of Killing Attack as
Physical or Energy. Killing Attack costs normal END
for the attack plus the normal for the STR used with
the Killing Attack.
< < Cost: 1PP for 1d6 of Kiling Attack, subtract
2d6/Lvls from the total. No Range
RANGED KILLING ATTACK
A character with this Standard Power can use a
Killing Attack in Ranged combat. This Power can be
used to simulate a wide variety of attacks: a gun, spear,
bows, etc.. The characters gets 1d6 Killing Attack for
every 1PP invested.
The damage of Killing Attacks ignores normal
defenses and is only stopped by resistant defenses. A
character must define his type of Killing Attack as
Physical or Energy. Killing Attack costs normal END

MENTAL DEFENSE
This Special Power represents characters who are
resistant to mental attacks. A character with Mental
Defense can resist some of the effects from Ego Attack,
Mental Illusions, Mind Control, Mind Scan, and
Telepathy. Characters start with 0 Mental Defense, but
a character who purchases Mental Defense gets a
defense equal to his WLL x2, plus the number of PP
spent. This Mental Defense is subtracted from the total
of any Mental Powers before the effect of the attack is
determined.
< < Cost: 1PP for 5 Mental Defense, minimum 1PP.
MENTAL ILLUSIONS
A character with this Mental Power can project
illusions directly into an opponents mind. After
making an Attack Roll based on WLL Combat Value,
the character defines what illusion he wants the target
to see. The character then rolls 1d6 for every 1PP in
the Mental Illusions and subtracts the targets Mental
Defense. The remainder is compared to the Mental
Illusion Table.
If the attacker did not roll enough points to reach
the desired level, the attack has no effect, but it does
alert the target. If the attacker rolls enough to achieve
the desired effect, then the illusion is established in the
targets mind.
Starting on the targets Phase after a Mental
Illusion is established, the target may attempt to see
through or disbelieve it. These attempts are
subconscious, and take no time, whether the target is
successful or not, the character may still act for the
Phase. To disbelieve a Mental Illusion, the character
must make a successful modified WLL Roll vs
Difficulty Number. The targets WLL Roll is at -1 for
every 1d6 of effect over the minimum PP necessary to
create the Illusion.
Once a Mental Illusion has been established at a
given level, it does not cost END to maintain, and the
target will remain under the influence of the illusion
until he makes a successful modified WLL Roll.
After the initial attempt to disbelieve, the modified
WLL Roll can be re-attempted at +1 for each step on
the Time Chart. The character thus gets to roll again
at +1 after one Turn passed, +2 after one minute has
passed, and so forth.
The attacker can prevent the illusion from
growing weaker by continuing to pay END each Phase;
so long as the attacker pays END each Phase, the
target gets no WLL Roll bonuses for the passage of
time.
The target of a Mental Illusion performs in a way
that does not meet the targets expectations. At the
GMs discretion, the character could get additional
bonuses to his roll if his friends are trying to snap him
out of it.
If the attacker desires to create new illusions for
the target, he must reroll his attack and again pay the
END.
Using these rules, it is easier to establish an
illusion that fits into the surroundings than one which
seems out of place.
When using this Power PCS, the GM should make
all WLL Rolls secretly and or take the player into
another room, so that the character and his allies dont
know that hes under the illusion.

MIND CONTROL
A character with this Mental Power can take
control of another characters mind, and thereby his
actions. The character buys 1d6 of Mind Control for
1PP.
To use Mind Control, make an Attack Roll based
on WLL Combat Value. If the Attack Roll is
successful., the attacking mentalist gives the target an
order. The GM secretly determines what level of Mind
Control his order will require, based on how agreeable
the target is to the command.
Roll and total the dice of Mind Control and
subtract the targets Mental Defense. If the resulting
total does not reach the desired level, the attack has no
effect. If the resulting total is greater than or equal to
the desired level, then the target must follow the order
until he breaks the Mind Control. Note that the
attacker must have some way to communicate with his
target; otherwise there is no way to give orders.

Starting on the targets next Phase, he may
attempt to break free from the Mind Control. These
attempts are subconscious and take no time, whether or
not he succeeds, the character may still act for the
Phase. To break free from Mind Control, the character
must make a successful WLL Roll. The targets WLL
Roll is at -1 for every 5 points of effect over the
minimum points necessary to control the target.
Once Mind Control has been established at a
given level, it does not cost END to maintain, and the
target will remain under the attackers control until he
makes a successful modified WLL Roll.
After the initial attempt to break free, the modified
WLL Roll can be re-attempted at +1 for each step on
the Time Chart. The character thus gets to roll again
at +1 after one Turn has passed, +2 after one minute
has passed, and so forth.
The attacking mentalist can prevent the Mind
Control from growing weaker by continuing to pay
END; so long as the mentalist pays END each Phase
the character gets no bonuses for the passage of time.
The character receives a bonus of +1 to +3 and a
chance ro reroll if he is forced to perform an action
prohibited by his psychological limitations. At the
GMs discretion, the character could get additional
bonuses to his roll if his friends are trying to snap him
out of it. If the attacker desires to issue new
instructions to the target, he must reroll his attack and
again pay for the END.
If a character is put under Mind Control at a given
level, and the situation later changes to require a
higher level of Mind Control, then the character gets
a +2 bonus to his WLL Roll per level change on the
table. Thus, if a character was issued a command
which only required an WLL+10 effect, and the
situation changed such that it now required a +30
effect, then the character would receive a +4 to his
WLL Roll.
Mind Control normally requires the mentalist to
communicate with the target. Mind Control which
doesnt require verbal communication is purchased
with a -1d6/Lvl Advantage. This only allows
communication of the command; the character cannot
read the targets mind. Mind Control which only
allows a single command is purchased with a +2d6/Lvl
Limitation. This command must still be spoken.
The Mind Control rules make it fairly easy to set
up small mind control effects, and more difficult to set
up more seeping ones. It is also easier to create a long
lasting, but inconsequential mind control than a more
comprehensive one.

The Mind Control can be made easier if the orders
seem reasonable, and can be made easier if the orders
seem reasonable, and harder if the orders are poorly
worded. To put the victim in a trance, so that he cant
remember his own actions, requires +10 points of
effect. To make the victim believe that the decisions
were his own requires +20 points of effect.
< < Cost: 1PP for 1d6 of Mind Control, minimum cost
2PP. Range is line of sight, no range modifier.
MIND LINK
With this Special Power, a variation of telepathy,
the character can set up a specific link with a receptive
mind, thereby allowing instant mental communication.
To establish a Mind Link requires the user to see
or sense the target; he must make an WLL to hit roll.
Of course, since the Mind Link must be voluntarily
accepted by the target, such attacks are rarely violent.
The cost is 1PP to be able to establish a link with
one specific mind. This individual must be chosen
when the Mind Link is bought, and can be human,
animal, or even a sentient computer. The ability to
establish a Mind Link with a set group of people (like
a family or pantheon) cost +1PP. The ability to
establish a Mind Link with any willing target costs an
additional +1PP. Mind Link can usually only be
maintained with one person at a time; the number of
targets can be doubled for +1PP. Mind Link is usually
limited to a single planet; if it can travel any distance,
it costs +1PP; if it can travel through any dimension is
costs an additional +1PP. Finally, if the Link can only
be maintained with a subject who also has Mind Link,
then the entire Power is bought with a +4d6/Lvl

MIND SCAN
A character with this Mental Power can search an
area in order to find another mind. Mind Scan costs
1PP for 1d6, and +2 on the WLL Based attack Roll
costs 1PP.
To use Mind Scan, define the search area, make
an Attack Roll based on WLL Combat Value modified
by the number of mind in the search area. The
modifier is listed on the Mind Scanning Modifiers
table
< 0 1 Person
< +2 10; Small company

< -18 1,000,000,000; Continent
< -20 10,000,000,000; Large planet
The character should receive a bonus (+1 to +5) if
he is searching for a familiar mind. Conversely, the
character should receive a penalty if he is searching for
the mind of a complete strange, or for a very alien
mind. If the roll is unsuccessful, then the character is
unable to make any contact with the target. If the roll
succeeds, then the mentalist has determined the
general presence of the target.
After a successful Attack Roll, the character
declares the desired Mind Scan level. The character
then rolls 1d6 for every 1PP in Mind Scan and
subtracts the targets Mental Defense. The remainder
is compared to the Mind Scan Table.
If the attacker did not roll enough points to reach
the desired level, Mind Scan has no effect, and the
target cannot be contacted mentally. If the attacker
rolls enough to achieve the desired effect, then he has
locked on to the target with Mind Scan.
Starting on the targets Phase after a Mind Scan is
established, the target may attempt to break he lock on.
These attempts are subconscious, and take no time,
whether the target is successful or not, the character
may still act for the Phase. To break a Mind Scan, the
character must make a successful modified WLL Roll.
The targets WLL Roll is at -1 for every 5 points of
effect over the minimum points necessary to reach the
desired level.
Once a Mind Scan has been established at a given
level, it does not cost END to maintain, and the target
will remain locked on until makes a successful
modified WLL Roll.
After the initial attempt to break the lock on, the
modified WLL Roll can be re-attempted at +1 for each
step on the Time Chart. The character thus gets to roll
again at +1 after one Turn has passed, +2 after one
minute has passed.
The attacking mentalist can prevent the Mind
Scan from growing weaker by continuing to pay END
each Phase; so long as the mentalist pays END the
character gets no bonuses for the passage of time.
Even though Mind Scan does not cost END to
maintain, the attacking mentalist must keep the Mind
Scan turned on,, it is in a Multi power, he cannot
switch the slots. If the Mind Scan is turned off then the
lock on is broken.
It is important to note that, once established, Mind
Scan is a two way circuit. If the mentalist is able to
mentally attack his target, then his target can mentally
attack him; if he knows where his target is, then his
target knows where he is. It is entirely possible for two
mentalists to carry on a long distance mental duel
through Mind Scan
WLL+ Mentalist can establish Mink Link or use first level of
Telepathy. He also knows the direction of the target.
WLL+10 Mentalist can use all Mental Powers on target, and can
estimate general distance to target.
WLL+20 Mentalist can attack with all attacks. He knows the exact
location of the target. To hit with a non-mental Power,
the attack must be able to reach the target.
< < Cost: 1PP for 1d6 Mind Scan, minimum cost 2PP.

MISSILE DEFECTION & REFLECTION
A character with this Standard Power can block
incoming ranged attacks. For 1PP, a character make a
Block against a thrown object. To make a successful
Block, the character must make an Attack Roll against
the incoming attack. This roll is based on the
attackers REF+Power Bonus+ Skill; the character
POWERS
FUZION
18
with Missile Deflection must make a successful Attack
Roll against the Attackers REF+Skill. A successful
Missile Deflection Roll means that the character takes
no damage.
For 2PP, the character can deflect arrows, sling
stones, and other non gunpowder projectiles. For 3PP,
the character can deflect bullets and shrapnel. For 4PP,
the character can deflect any ranged attack which can
be deflected. This includes, but is not limited to,
Energy Blasts, Ranged Killing Attacks, and most
attacks that have the Power Advantage Range, and
many NND and AVLD attacks.
Missile Deflection will not affect any attacks
which target the characters WLL, nor can the
character deflect any attack that targets his hex.
Missile Deflect cannot usually be used against
Entangle attacks. Whether or not Missile Deflect can
be applied against a specific attack is based on the
attacks special effect: if an area Effect Attack or NND
Attack is carried in a bullet, it could be deflected.
Missile Deflect can never be used against an attack
that isnt perceived by the character.
Missile Deflection functions identically to a Hand
to Hand Block: it takes a single Phase attack action to
perform, it must be declared before the attacker rolls
his Attack Roll, and it can be aborted to. However,
unlike Block, Missile Deflect has no effect on the order
of action in combat.
Once a character is Missile Deflecting, he can try
to parry as many ranged attacks as are fired at him, but
each Missile Deflection Roll after the first is made at
a cumulative -2 penalty. Once a character has failed a
roll, he may not attempt to deflect further attacks.
A character can purchase +2 to his Missile
Deflection Roll for 1PP. This bonus only applies to the
deflection roll; if a character also has Missile
Reflection, he gets REF bonus for his attack. Missile
Deflection costs no END to use.
A character Missile Deflection normally deflects
incoming attacks in a random direction. A character
can Reflect an attack back at the attacker for +4PP. To
make this attack, the character must first make a
successful Deflection roll, as described above. He then
reflects the attack back at the attacker, using his
normal REF and range penalties. For +2PP additional
Points, the character can reflect incoming attacks at
any target.
It is possible to purchase missile Deflect that will
affect attacks not aimed directly at the character. For
a -1d6/Lvl Advantage, the character can deflect attacks
directed at targets in any adjacent hex; he could, for
example, protect a comrade standing next to him. For
a -4d6/Lvls Advantage, the character can deflect
attacks at range; these Missile Defection Rolls are
made with standard penalties for range. The maximum
range is PP in Missile Deflection x25 hexes (2m). A
character can never Reflect attacks not targeted
directly upon him.
< < Cost: 1 PP for thrown objects, 2PP for arrows or
projectiles, 3PP for bullets and shrapnel, 4PP for
all ranged attacks. The base Missile Deflection
Roll is as per a Block (REF+Skill+Power vs
REF+Skill). +2 to roll costs 1PP. To Reflect
Attacks back a t attacker cost 4PP; to Reflect
attacks at any target costs +2PP more. To deflect
adjacent attacks is a -2d6/Lvls Advantage; to
deflect attacks at range is a -4d6/Lvls Advantage.
Characters cannot reflect attacks directed against
others. Missile Deflection costs no END to use.
MULTIFORM
A character with this Special Power can have
several different forms, each with its own personality,
Characteristics, and powers. The player must make up
a different full character for each different form the
character can take.
The character must choose one of the forms to be
the base form; this will be the one built on the most
total points. To gain a second form, the maximum total
points the second from can have is equal tot the total
points in the base form, minus all Multiform Costs.
The new form should be built with same
guidelines as the base character. It is cheaper to buy
additional forms after the second. The maximum
number point total points the other form can have is
equal to the total points in the base character, minus
all Multiform costs.
< < Cost: Base character pays 1PP for every 25 CP/OP
possessed by second form. Each additional form
costs the base character 1PP for every 50 CP/OP.
No form can have more total points than the total
points of the base character minus all the costs for
Multiform. Multiform costs no END to use.
POWER DEFENSE
POWERS
FUZION
19
A character wit this Special Power is especially
resistant to Drain, Transfer, an Transform attacks. The
character can, at his option, apply Power Defense
against Aid. The character gets 5 Power Defense
points for every 1PP. When Drain or Transfer is used
on the character, he subtracts his Power Defense from
the attack. Any reaming points of Drain or Transfer
are applied normally to the character.
< < Cost: 1PP for Power Defense of points, minimum
cost is 1PP.
REGENERATION
A character with this Special Power can recover
HITs faster than the normal rate (A character normally
recovers his REC in HITs each month). A character
with Regeneration will regain one HIT each Turn for
2PP. This can be increased by +1 HIT for +2PP.
Minimum cost is 2PP. Regeneration does not require
conscious guidance form the character, and will
continue to function even if he is knocked unconscious.
The recovery period can be moved down the Time
Chart; each 2 Time increments down is a +1 HIT/Lvl
Limitation. Character cannot regenerate more
frequently than once per Turn. If the GM desire, he
can proportion the regenerated HITs over the recovery
period. This can be especially important when a
character has moved the recovery period down the
Time Chart.
Regeneration will heal back any HITs that the
character has lost, including HITs lost from Drains and
Transfers. It will also regenerate the HITs of
Cumulative Transformations.
< < Cost: 2PP to recover 1 HIT each Turn, +1 HIT for
+2PP, minimum cost 2PP. Recovery increment
can be moved down the Time Chart as a
+1HIT/Lvl every 2 levels. Regeneration cost no
END to use.
RUNNING
A character with this Movement Power can run
faster than the normal MOVE per Phase allowed. The
character gains +5m for every 1PP spent; this is in
addition to the characters Normal MOVE running.
The character may buy 2x maximum NCM velocity for
+1PP.
Running normally requires no Turn mode, a
character can make any number of turns in Phase
while running. The character can have a Turn mode
while Running for a +5m/Lvl Limitation.
< < Cost: 1PP for every +5m of Running. 2x
maximum non-combat velocity for +1PP. The
END cost for Running is 1 END for every 10m.
SHAPE SHIFT
A character with this Standard Power can change
his outer form and appearance without altering his
Powers or other abilities. A Character may freely
switch his form as often as desired; switching shapes
takes 1 action. Keeping his shape shifted costs END.
A character with Disguise who makes a Disguise Roll
can make instant duplicates of specific people.
Otherwise a character with Shape Shift will not be able
to make a convincing duplicate of a specific person.
< < Cost: Change form, look and color into a single
other form for 2PP; alter shape into a limited
group of shapes +2PP; to change shape into any
other shape (of same mass) costs +4PP.
SHRINKING
A character with this Size Power can decrease in
size, making him more difficult to see and to hit. For
2PP, the character become x Height/Mass, +2 DEX,
and -2 to all PER Rolls made against him. The
character also takes +5m of Knockback. This
Knockback modifier is applied against the total
distance traveled, but not the damage that the character
takes.
A character with Shrinking may add his growth
momentum to his punch damage. The character can
add +1d6 of damage to his punch per point of DEX.
In order use this damage, the shrinker literally grows
up under the jaw of the opponent. Of course, the
character then remains normal size until his next
Phase, when he can shrink down again. A character
cant use growth momentum n someone the same size
or smaller.
Of course, one of the main advantages of
Shrinking is the ability to get into places or hide
behind things where normal people cant go. The GM
should allow shrinkers to use their smaller size in
inventive ways during an adventure.
< < Cost: 2PP for the character per level. The
character has: x Height, x Mass, +2 DEX
(DEX), and -2 to all PER Rolls made against him,
POWERS
FUZION
20
and +2d6 damage for growth momentum. The
character also has +6m Knockback.
SKILLS
With GMs permission, a character purchase
Skills with Power Limitations and Power Advantages,
just like any Special Power. The cost is computed as if
the Skill were a Power.
If the Skill bought through a focus and requires a
s Skill Roll, then the appropriate CHAR is assumed to
be 0. Thus a glove with the Skill Sleight of Hand
would have a 0 REF/DEX, and the base Skill would be
+2. It is possible to buy Combat Skill Levels with
Limitations, but there are special rules for doing so.
< < Cost: +5 per 1PP.
STRETCHING
A character with this Standard Power can stretch
parts f his body, attack at range, and reach for things
at long distance. The character can Stretch 2m fro
every 1PP. This distance assumes that the character is
maintaining full REF and DEX; if he is willing to be
REF/DEX, the character stretch twice as far.
Attacks made at range with Stretching suffer no range
penalties, the character is considered to be in Hand to
Hand combat.
Stretching does not give the character any bonuses
to movement, he cannot, for example, run faster or
squeeze under doors. To simulate these special effects,
the character should buy Running and or
Desolidification.
When using Stretching, a character must pay the
END cost for Stretching as well as the END for any
STR he used when Stretching.
< < Cost: 1PP for 2m of Stretching (4m NCM),
minimum cost 2PP.
SUMMON
A character with this Standard Power can
summon a creature form the abyss, another dimension,
or somewhere on earth. The creatures summoned have
Characteristics of 2, can run 9m, possesses normal
senses, etc... Summon normally allows the character to
summon a single type of creature of the assigned
power points. Thus a character could summon a wolf,
but not a lion. For a +1PP Power Advantage, the
character can summon any member of a limited group
(terrestrial animals, birds, Chaotic Demons from Hell).
If the character wants to be able to Summon anything,
then he must purchase Summon with a -8d6/Lvls
Power Advantage.
When a character uses the Summon power, he
pays END, and the creature appears in the nearest
unoccupied space where it will fit. (Summoning a
whale requires quite a bit of room!) The character
doesnt have to pay any more END to keep the creature
here; its here , and it can decide to go home at any
time. When the creature first appears, it will be
Stunned and disoriented; it must spend its first Phase
reacquiring its bearing.
Of course, Summoning a creature can be a much
easier task tan getting it to do what you want. The
summoned creature will likely be very disturbed by
being pulled from its dwelling. Unless the summoner
gives the creature a good reason not to, it will likely
return from whence it came or even attack the
summoner. Hence, the summoner should have some
way to compel or convince the new arrival. This can
range from bribes and promises, to something as
simple as Mind Control. A truly powerful character
might even be able to bully a summoned creature into
performing a tasks.
Summon should never be used as a cheap version
of Teleportation, nor can it summon an individual so
that the summoner can kill him. Summon should only
be used to summon a type or class or creature, not a
specific one, except with special GM permission. Thus
a character could summon a man, or perhaps even a
fighter, but he could not summon Baron Montrose.
The best way to handle Summoning is for the GM
to provide a list of the creatures that can be summoned.
The capabilities of each creature should be roughly
outlines. Only the GM knows the creature specific
capabilities.
To force a summoned creature to return home, a
character must cast a Dispel or Suppress which
overcomes the PP (x5) used to summon the creature in
the first place.
< < Cost: The base cost to summon a creature is 6PP;
the summoned creature gains 25 CP/OP for every
+1PP. The number of summoned creatures can be
doubled for +1PP. To summon any creature from
a limited group is a -25CP/OP Advantage. To be
able to summon any creature is a -200CP/OP
Advantage.

SUPERLEAP
A character wit this Movement Power can leap
great distances. Normally, a character can leap 2m
forward for every 1 MOVE, and half that distance
upward. With Superleap, a character can increase
these natural totals by +10m per 1PP.
In combat, leaps are identical to flight, except that
the target hex must be chosen when the character
begins the leap, and it is impossible to change
direction in mid leap. A character may half leap and
still attack. The target hex of leap need not be another
hex, the leaper could aim for a flying enemy or the hex
right in from of an airplane.
It is possible to miss the target location of a leap;
the leaper makes an Attack Roll with range modifiers
to hit the target hex (DEX 1). Superleap costs END, as
does the STR used for the base leap.
A character with Superleap can also leap
noncombat. This will double the distance, and the
character will be half DEX for the duration of the leap.
The NCM distance can be doubled again for +1PP. As
with a normal leap, the character must declare his
target hex, and cannot change direction in mid flight.
The duration of such a leap is equal to the number of
NCM doubles, every doubling adds a Phase to the
duration of the leap.
< < Cost: 1PP for every +10m, minimum cost 1PP. 2x
NCM distance for +1PP. Superleap costs 1 END
per 10m plus END used for MOVE.
SUPPRESS
A character with this Standard Power can partially
or wholly neutralize another characters Powers or
Characteristics. To use a Suppress, make an Attack
Roll against the target. If successful, the roll and total
of the Suppress dice, then subtract the targets Power
Defense (if any); the remaining total is the number of
PP that dont work.
Suppress remains in effect as long as the attacker
pays END. Suppress normally applies to only a single
power. To buy a Suppress that affects any power of a
given special effect is a -1d6/lvl Power Advantage.
This could be used to simulate a Suppress that could be
fine tuned to any magical spell or mutant power. A
Suppress which affects all powers of a given special
effect must be bought with a -8d6/Lvls Advantage.
Suppress can be used to suppress any Power, even
Suppress, though this can be confusing. If a Power is
completely Suppressed (it has no PP left), then the
power has been turned off, and will have to be
restarted when the Suppress is taken off.
< < Cost: 1PP for 1d6 of Suppress. Affects any single
power of a certain special effect is a -1d6/Lvl
Advantage; Affects all powers of a certain special
effect is a -8d6/Lvls Advantage. Suppress max
range = PP x 3m; the Suppress remains as long as
the attacker pays END.
SWIMMING
A character with this Movement Power can swim
on or through water. The character gains +10m of
Swimming for every 1PP spent; this in addition to the
MOVE that most characters start with. The character
can buy 2x NCM for +1PP. Buying Swimming is the
only way that a character can increase his velocity
underwater.
Swimming normally requires no Turn mode, a
character can make any number of turns in a Phase
while swimming. The character can have a Turn mode
while swimming for a +10m Limitation.
< < Cost: 1PP for +10m of Swimming. 2x NCM
velocity for +1PP. The END cost for Swimming is
1 END for 10m.
SINGING
A character wit this Movement Power can swing
great distances from a line. The character can also
Swing up to a certain location by attaching a swing
line nearby. The character can Swing 10m for every
1PP; the minimum cost is 1PP. The character may buy
2x NCM velocity for +1PP.
To use Swinging the character must be able to
attach his swing lines to high buildings, trees, or cliff
sides. The GM shouldnt usually worry about this
restriction in urban environments, there are always tall
structures around somewhere. However, if the GM
wished to be strict, or if the character is in a flat
environment, it would be reasonable to penalize the
characters velocity or to disallow Swinging all
together.
Swinging does not have to be bought with the
Focus Limitation. Useless that Power Limitation is
actually taken, the character can produce as many sing
lines as he needs.

TELEKINESIS
A character with this Standard Power can
manipulate objects at a distance. The character can use
a STR of 2 at range for 3PP. +2 Telekinesis STR for
3PP. This STR can be used in any way the character
desires: Telekinesis can be used to squeeze an object or
punch an opponent. Theres no action reaction with
Telekinesis, so a character cant pick himself up with
Telekinesis or grab a flying character and be dragged
along.
Base Telekineses is inherently clumsy, the
character can manipulate great force, but he cannot
manipulate it with any fine control. Fine work costs
+2PP. Fine work, like pushing a button, can then be
done with Telekinesis if the character makes a TCH
+Power Use Skill vs 15+, with appropriate penalties.
If a characters TK affects all parts of the target,
then it is bought with a +1d6/Lvl Limitation.
Characters with this type of Telekinesis cannot squeeze
or punch a target; they can grab, however.
All Telekinesis has normal range modifiers.
Characters should not buy their TK STR with the
Power Advantage Range; they should buy TK instead.

TELEPATHY
A character with this Mental Power can read or
send thoughts. Each 1d6 of Telepathy costs 1PP.
T o use Telepathy, make an Attack Roll based on
WLL Combat Value. If successful, the character
declares the desired Telepathy level. The character
then rolls and totals the Telepathy dice and subtracts
the targets Mental Defense. The remaining total is
compared to the Telepathy Table.
If the attackers remaining total is less than the
desired level, the Telepathy has no effect. If the
remaining total is greater than or equal to the desired
level, then he has contacted the target with Telepathy.
Each Phase thereafter, he can search for one fact, or
get the answer to one question.
Starting on the targets Phase after Telepathy is
established, the target may attempt to break contact.
These attempts are subconscious, and take no time,
whether the target is successful or not, the character
may still act for the Phase. To break Telepathy, the
character must make a successful modified WLL Roll.
The targets WLL Roll is at -1 for every 5 points of
effect over the minimum points necessary to reach the
desired level.
Once Telepathy has been established at a given
level, it does not cost END to maintain, and the target
will remain in contact until he makes a successful
modified WLL Roll.
After the initial attempt to break contact, the
modified WLL Roll can be re-attempted at +1 for each
step on the Time Chart. The character thus gets to roll
again at +1 after on Turn has passed, +2 after one
minute has passed, and so forth.
The character can prevent the Telepathy from
growing weaker by continuing to pay END each Phase;
so long as the character pays END the target gets no
bonuses for the passage of time.
If a character wants to establish a new level of
telepathic contact, he must make a new Attack Roll,
with the new modifiers.
WLL+ The telepathy can read or send surface thoughts
WLL+10 The telepathy can read deep, hidden thoughts
WLL+20 The Telepathy can read into the targets memory
WLL+30 The Telepath can read into the targets subconscious
< < Cost: 1PP for 1d6 of Telepathy, minimum cost is
2PP. Range is line of sight, no range modifier.
TELEPORTATION
A character with this Movement Power can
disappear from one point and appear at another,
without traveling in between. The character can
Teleport 20m to a spot he can see for 4PP; this
distance can be increased by 10m fro 2PP. A teleporter
can Teleport up to half his movement and then attack.
The character can prepare 1 extra Phase and
Teleport 2x his normal distance for +1PP; he can
continue to double the distance for +1PP, but
teleporting the added distance will still only take one
extra Phase. At the end of this long range
Teleportation, the character will be DEX due to
disorientation. (This is Teleportations version of
NCM.)
A character can Teleport to any spot he can see as
POWERS
FUZION
23
long as its within his range. The teleporter can
memorize 5 fixed locations for 1PP and Teleport there
without seeing it, but only if the spot is within his
range. The location need not be physical, it could, for
example, be a living creature, and airplane seat, or
whatever. This fixed location cannot ever be changed.
A character can purchasing a floating location for
1PP. A floating location functions identically to a fixed
location, except that it can be changed during an
adventure. To change a floating location, the character
must study the new location for a full Turn; after that
it is memorized until the character wants to change the
location again.
Normally, the character can only Teleport himself
and his costume, but for each +1PP the character can
Teleport an additional 2x normal human mass
(100kg).
If a character wishes to Teleport other individuals
(without being teleported himself) he must buy the
Usable by Others or Useable Against Other Power
Advantages.
A character cannot Teleport through any barrier
which has been bought with the Power Advantage
Hardened, unless he has bought the Teleportation with
the Power Advantage Armor Piercing. A teleporter can
purchase Armor Piercing multiple times to counteract
Hardened both multiple times.
< < Cost: 4PP to Teleport 20m, +10m for every 2PP,
2x mass for 1PP, an additional 2x distance for 1PP
(takes 1 extra Phase), 5 fixed locations for 1PP, 1
floating location for 1PP. Minimum cost 4PP. The
END cost is 1 END for every 10m of
Teleportation.
TRANSFER
A character with this Adjustment Power can
temporarily take points from an opponents
Characteristic or Power and add those points to one of
his own Characteristics or Powers. The character may
Transfer 1d6 of an opponents Characteristics or
Power Points (x5) for 3PP. The character Points may
be transferred to a different Characteristic or Power
than they were taken from.
The points gained from Transfer return at the rate
of 1PP per Turn. This return rate can be moved down
on the time chart for a -1d6/Lvl Advantage per level.
The maximum amount of PP that can be transferred is
equal to the highest number that could be rolled on the
Transfer dice. This maximum can be increased +10
points for 1PP spent. Transfer has no range.
< < Cost: 3PP for 1d6 Transferred Active Points; 1PP
Transferred return per Turn. Return Rate can be
moved down the Time chart at a -1d6/Lvl
Advantage. The maximum amount that can be
Transferred is the maximum amount that can be
rolled on the dice. This maximum can be
increased by +10 per +1PP. Minimum cost is 3PP.
TRANSFORM
A character with this Standard Power can change
a target into something else. The caster must decide
what the Powers target is and what the result is; this
cannot be changed once the Power is bought. For
example a character could transform an opponent into
a toad. The target would be people and the result
toads. The GM must approve any Transform before
the player can use it.
To use Transform, the character makes an Attack
Roll against his target. If successful, the character rolls
and totals the Transform dice and subtracts the targets
power Defense (if any). If the remaining is greater than
the HITS of the target, the target is transformed into
the result of the Transform. If the total is less than
twice, nothing happens.
The character may define one of two ways for the
character to regain his normal form. First, a character
may heal back the HITS from the Transformation
Attack. The character heals his BODY at the same rate
as normal. Regeneration and Healing can also help the
characters healed back all of the Transformation
Attack, he reverts back to his normal form.
The other way to regain normal form is for the
character with the Transform to define an All or
Nothing transformation. This means that the target
must be treated in some identifiable way.
< < Cost: 1PP for 1d6 of Cosmetic Transformation,
2PP for 1d6 of Minor Transformation, 3PP for
1d6 of Major Transformation. Transform works
versus Power Defense. -2d6/lvls Advantage for
Cumulative attack. -1d6/Lvl Advantage to change
target into limit class of objects; -4d6/Lvls
Advantage to change target into anything. Range
is x5 points.
TUNNELING
POWERS
FUZION
24
A character with this Movement Power can move
through the ground by creating a tunnel roughly his
own size. The character can tunnel 2m through 1 DEF
material for every 1PP; it is possible for a character to
tunnel more quickly than he can walk. The DEF that
a character can tunnel through can be increased by +5
DEF for 3PP. A character can tunnel at NCM 2x as
fast; he is then DEX. Tunneling cannot be used on
living creatures to cause damage.
The tunnel is normally left open behind the
character. If a character wishes to be able to fill the
tunnel behind himself, the cost is +2PP. In any case,
the tunneler does not need life support to tunnel (he is
assumed to keep an air pocket around him).
< < Cost: 1PP for 2m Tunneling per Phase, +5 DEF
that can be tunneled through for +3PP; minimum
cost 4PP. END cost is 1 END per 10m Tunneled.
