    It just boosts your highest Specialty, it doesn't grant you subAds. The idea being it provides power not control.

    Squall: Fastest way out/she can survive it. She figured The Bro was right - she should live to fight another day.

    so did you actually succeed in convincing her, or did she just trick us into letting her escape

    Jimmijum and/or chet could try and grab her before she gets away

    If not this might come back later to bite us in the ass

    So wait, should I

    -Mindfuck her into stressing out maybe?

    -Dominate her into staying?

    -Dominate her into something else (my favorite idea is drowning herself in the pool, but I assume that would have a pretty heavy mod on it)

    Skiff points toward the hatch with one of his lethal appendages, whirling back around into a defensive posture as the water-heaters begin to roar and hiss. His four eyes narrow, glancing between the heaters and the humans with suspicion.

    Skiff sprints to the far end of the basement, tapping the hatch with a bladed limb. "You will be saving lives in the sewer?" he asks, unsure, his face twisting into the closest approximation to a mutated frown. The other mutants would not likely appreciate his allowing of such an intrusion into their territory. "We should move."

    Sword [40%] [+10% [P] Damage; Critical 15%; Lethality 15%]


    Makali tries to sit up a little and winces with pain, slumping back down into the bed. He slowly reaches down and gingerly touches his side, pulling his carbosilicate fingers away quickly as the wound smarts and watches grimly as the UI on his arm analyses his blood levels.

    "Bastard." Makali whispers weakly to himself, but then he can't help but faintly smile. But I suppose turn-about is fair play. I won though, it took a shit load of theatrics, miracles and fuck my body probably hates me. But these people are mine. He looks over at the woman and grins wryly.

    "Well, that's new. Waking up with a gal I don't know in the room." The wounded man chuckles at this, but then sighs as his side protests. He looks over and sees a new set of clothes neatly folded in front of the couch, probably left there by some of the people to replace his bloody ones. It seems to be a pure white biker bodysuit and a white leather jacket.

    "I suppose I should check in." He says, pushing his hand to his forehead. In the void where that takes him, he immediately announces, "Michael, I won. Took a while, got a bit banged up there, but these people are yours."

    what do you think?

    Brutality gives a better damage bonus than Mutant Strength (1/2 or full with Heavy Hitter, vs. Strength's 1/4 or 1/2 with Heavy Hitter).

    a while back, and I'm not sure I understand. since the wording of Strength is

    [Mutant Strength][%] Your mutations have made you inhumanly strong. You gain twice your Mutant Strength rating as a bonus to [P] for strength-related purposes, including calculating your Defending penalty. This is often, but not always, coupled with the Huge Od.

    the damage bonuses work out to be identical

    Vis: Wounds don't have definite applications like that. They may come up.

    Lock: Mutant Strength now functions as above, but also grants a 1:1 bonus to Lethality.

    Patch soon, which will have the much better new damage rules. [tiny][Sorta tempted to just use the 100% rules.][/tiny]
