Magnetic Psionics.
Posted: Sat Apr 13, 2024 6:11 pm
Im trying to create a psionic similar to bursters and zappers that has control over magnetic fields and need help with ideas for powers and even a possible name.
The powers are as such.
A defense shield again similar to bursters where the psychic pulls minute metal fillings from thier surroundings like minerals from the ground or even stripping the top layer off of like metal, think like scrapping off metal flakes but in a much faster time frame. These would bond together as a second skin, but is sdc unless theyre in a mdc environment or on a ley line.
Making weapons, using thier control to brute force flatten metal into a crude edge thats sdc unless on a ley line or nexus where they can focus the edge to do MD.
the ability to attract or repel metal around them, such as dragging a Dead Boy to them or forcing them away.
A magnetic field that they would need to focus on (-1 or -2 melee attacks per round) that allows them to auto repel metal away from them and even try to repel metal attacks such as railgun rounds (based on the magnetic forcefield from rifter 51)
Sensing magnetic north, sensing large quantities of metal near them (roughly 50-100lbs and more within a area).
A passive ability they have is to be permanently magnetic but on a lesser scale, like nails can get stuck to skin as if theyre a weak magnet, or they can choose to be activaly repellant, the same nails staying a foot away from them. (this is a passive and free ability they can do whenever.)
Possible powers is also the potential to compress about 100 sdc of metal into 1 MD layer of metal as a cheap mdc metal they can make(though its still the weight of 100 sdc metal so itll be real heavy for what your getting)
As for names I was thinking of Ironclads since they can make the skin tight suit of metal but Id love to hear your suggestions.
