Deathly Aura
Type: P Action: Simple
Range: Special Duration: Sustained
The spirit radiates an aura of fear and decay, which taints the surrounding environment. For an area with a radius of (Force) meters around the spirit, the temperature drops by (Force x 2)°C. Also, organic material in this radius decays at a faster rate, aging by a factor equal to the spirit’s Force. This effect is not fast enough to noticeably damage metahumans and other large critters, but the aura withers plants and kills small creatures such as insects or mice. This aura fills living creatures with unreasoning terror. Someone who wishes to voluntarily enter an affected area must succeed in an Opposed Test between their Charisma + Willpower and the spirit’s Force x 2 or else they are compelled to flee until they are out of sight of whatever caused the aura.
