Genetic Knockout

This edge allows the Genomancer to repress mutations or aberrations in the target's genome.
To do so, the Genomancer must sting a target living being with his Genomic Spur.
Spend 2 EP and Roll Smarts & Attunement.
  • Critical Failure: The repression doesn't work, and the GM chooses one:
    • You enter Attunement trance involuntarily, you can only exit if interrupted.
    • Your Genomic Spur - 3 gets damaged, but it will heal in a week, if you try to use it before, you'll break it for sure.
    • If you intended to repress a mutation, you repress an aberration instead, the GM chooses.
    • If you intended to repress an aberration, you repress a mutation instead, the GM chooses.
    • It takes a lot of effort, you get 2 levels of Fatigue
    • It takes a lot of effort, spend 2 EP.
  • Failure: The repression doesn't work.
  • Partial Success: The repression works (see Success), but the GM can also choose one from below:
    • If you intended to repress a mutation, the GM chooses another mutation from the target's genome to be repressed.
    • If you intended to repress an aberration, the GM also chooses a mutation from the target's genome to be repressed.
    • You enter trance involuntarily, as in Genomic Attunement, you can only exit if interrupted.
    • It takes a lot of effort, you spend 2 EP.
    • Your Genomic Spur - 3 gets damaged, but it will heal in a week, if you try to use it before, you'll break it for sure.
  • Success: Knockout takes place - You can choose a mutation or aberration among the ones in the target's genome, and repress it. The modification propagates and expresses itself as intended, in a process taking 6 painful turns. The targets suffers 1 level of Fatigue.
  • Raise: Each raise can be used to reduce the number of turns, or the Fatigue levels inflicted to the target.
