Ruinous repartee
Tier: 5
Activation: Active (Action)
Ranked: No
Once per encounter, your character may use this talent
to make an opposed Charm or Coercion versus Discipline
check targeting one character within medium
range (or within earshot). If successful, the target suffers
strain equal to twice your character’s Presence,
plus one additional strain per s. Your character heals
strain equal to the strain inflicted.
If incapacitated due to this talent, the target could
flee the scene in shame, collapse in a dejected heap, or
throw themself at your character in fury, depending on
your GM and the nature of your character’s witty barbs.
