This Power grants the character the ability to manipulate electrical energy. He can use Electrical Control to:
- Discharge currents of electrical energy, emulating Lightning at the character’s APs of Electrical Control.
- Electrical Control may be used to deflect attacks based on electrical, magnetic, or metallic objects (this included charged particle beams.) in this case, the APs of Power are added to the Character's OV against these attacks
- The Character may increase or decrease the intensity of a source of electricity (including thunderclouds.) Electrical intensities are measured in terms of the AV/EV. Household current has an AV/EV of 4, Industrial Current has an AV/EV of 8 while the output of a power plant might have an AV/EV as high as 12. The Character makes an Action Check using the APs of Electricity Control as the AV/EV against an OV/RV equal to the source's AV/EV. Add or subtract (as desired) the RAPs earned to/from the AV and EV of the source. This can be used to discharge or recharge batteries, as well as overheat, shut down, or even explode (GM's discretion) electrical devices.
- Incorporeally travel at the speed of light along electromagnetic currents, emulating Self-Only Teleport at the character’s APs of Electrical Control. The character cannot teleport to locations that are insulated or remote from electrical current.
- Shock a target into paralysis with a taser-like touch, emulating Touch-Range Physical Paralysis at the character’s APs of
Electrical Control. - This Power may be used as the AV/EV of any attempt to jam Radio Communication by causing massive feedback. The OV/RV of the attempt is the APs of Radio Communications. If RAPs achieved are greater than 1/2 the APs of Radio Communications (round up,) the signal is effectively jammed and no information can be sent through.
- The Character may attempt to disable to damage electrical systems, including the power and control systems of devices and the nervous systems of creatures, This is treated as a Physical Attack with AV/EV equal to the APs of Electricity Control and OV/RV equal to the target's Body/Body. OV is not Dex (unless the Range is reduced to Touch) because the electricity is already existent in the target.
The Electrical Magnitude table shows the APs of Magnitude for some common electrical sources. Characters contacting an electrical current suffer damage to each Phase as if from a Special Electrical Aura at the current’s APs of Magnitude. If a current is modified, the current will return to its prior Magnitude when the character stops using his Electrical Control unless it has been repaired, grounded, or deactivated in the meantime.
