STAFF EDIT: If you could try to work the Weaknesses, Side Effects and etc. into the actual ability description that would be good, but that's just preference. Otherwise, APPROVED!

 

[V]

Username: Godzilla

Name of Ability?
Mobile Beast

Ability Effects:
Agility 3 (600)
Speed 3 (600)
-- Ongoing (0; Specialized Affinity)

Descriptor: In spite of the immense size which would normally lead one to believe that Godzilla would be a ponderous, slow-moving behemoth...this is far from the truth. And in fact, the massive beast possesses tremendous speed on both land and in the water, as well as a level of coordination, reflexes and precision of movement that is eerily all too reminiscent of a well-trained and conditioned human.

Essence Cost: 1200

STAFF EDIT: APPROVED

 

[Gilgamesh]

Username: Gilgamesh

Name of Ability?
Sha Naqba Imuru

Ability Effects:
Sense (Vision) IV: 400
--Ongoing (400)

Master Skill:
Knowledge: Battle Tactics VI (300)
--Activation

Descriptor: Gilgamesh can inherently see through basic subterfuge and has advanced sight of a limited area.

He can also channel this ability for a few seconds to peer into the future and find the best decision to best lead his army.

Essence Cost: 1100

STAFF EDIT: Sorry King ol' pal, but this flies a little too close to a clause on the Master Skills page indicating that Skills may not create the effects of abilities. If you want to break this into two separate abilities, the ongoing Senses would be find on its own as is, and you could have a second ability that grants him improved tactical insight after focusing for a moment.

Name of Ability?

--Ongoing (400)

------

Master Skill:
Knowledge: Battle Tactics VI (300)
--Activation

Descriptor: Gilgamesh can inherently see through basic subterfuge and has advanced sight of a limited area.

-------

Gilgamesh can concentrate for a moment to see into the future. With this, he can find the best possible solution for his forces to take, giving him a tactical advantage.

Essence Cost: 1100


STAFF EDIT: Looks better now. Just remember Master Skills are only 50 essence per rank, not 100, so this'll actually only cost ya 950 total. Other than that, approved.

Damage Rank 5 (500E)
Removable (-250E)

Voices from the Void

Sense Rank 3 (Extrasensory) (300E)
Triggered (150E) Activated when she is being targeted.
Chaotic (-150E) The voices cannot be controlled.

Descriptor: Due to the experimental phase program Wraith was involved in she is capable of hearing the voices of herself from different time lines. They react and respond to danger, alerting her when someone is about to take a shot or attack her. She has no control over when they help her.

Essence Cost: 300

STAFF EDIT: Approved

[Lilith]

Username: Lilith

Name of Ability?
Bloody Spray

Ability Effects:
Damage Rank 2 (200E)
—Ongoing (200E)
—Side Effect (Must damage self) (-100E)
—Finite (Limited blood, must replenish between uses) (-100E)
Total Cost: 200E

Descriptor: A somewhat flashy yet useful attack, Lilith sprays her target with her own blood, usually by stabbing herself and flicking the blade in their direction. Since she can transform parts of herself in a short radius, the blood turns to acid before making impact. It has the same properties as her Acid Touch with certain benefits and drawbacks. It gives her ability an extended range, whereas usually she must be within striking distance. It also allows her to be more precise with what she targets. She must expend blood to make use of this, which necessitates hurting herself, not that she finds it so bad. There's only so much she can sacrifice, and if overused this ability will be rendered worthless. She does have a way to replenish her cells, but that requires her to transform, meaning she can't use any areas in the process of repairing.

Essence Cost: 200

STAFF EDIT: This is mathematically sound, but there's a discrepancy between the descriptor and modifiers. If the attack can hit people at a distance, it needs ranged. Being that flicking blood is probably still a short ranged attack, you could add the Limited: Short Range on to it, or something similar

 

[Lilith]

Name of Ability?

Ability Effects:
Damage Rank 2 (200E)
—Ongoing (+200E)
—Ranged (+100E)
—Side Effect (Must damage self) (-100E)
—Finite (Limited blood, must replenish between uses) (-100E)
—Limited (Only in a short range) (-100E)
Total Cost: 200E

She must expend blood to make use of this, which necessitates hurting herself, not that she finds it so bad. There's only so much she can sacrifice, and if overused this ability will be rendered worthless. The projectile quickly loses its velocity after going a few meters and transforming. She does have a way to replenish her cells, but that requires her to transform, meaning she can't use any areas in the process of repairing.

[Wraith]

Username: Wraith

Name of Ability?
Werewolf Lupus

Ability Effects:
Shapeshifting (1500E)
Limited (-500E)

Descriptor: The Lupus form is the true "wolf" form of the Garou, allowing werewolves to hunt and live among wolf packs, or to call on the speed and superior senses of the wolf. Many a hunter has come to a horrible end after wounding a werewolf that he mistook for an ordinary animal – or the mate of a Garou who has chosen to live as a wolf for a time.

Essence Cost: 1000

STAFF EDIT: Approved! Just be sure to list beside the Limited modifier that this Shapeshifting ability only has one form.

 

[Lilith]

Username: Lilith

Name of Ability?
Cursed Sense

Ability Effects:
Sense: Extrasensory Rank 4 (400E)
—Concentration (-200E)
Total Cost: 200E

Descriptor: Cursed energy is fundamental to all beings, born from malevolent thoughts, actions, and emotions. While some amount of this negative energy is inside everything, only skilled users of curses can channel it effectively. Lilith, as the living embodiment of cursed energy, can access this network to sense curse users and spirits in a wide area, as well as regular people. It operates similar to a heat map, highlighting the greatest points of energy to her, as well as residual traces of curses. This ability can also be used to single out a specific person, provided that Lilith knows them, by tapping into their unique 'frequency', briefly revealing their aura. She can also use it up close on a (mostly) willing subject to see the 'imprints' left on them, such as past misdeeds or lingering trauma.

Essence Cost: 200

[Wraith]

Username: Wraith

Name of Ability?
V0-1D Pilot Armor

Ability Effects:
Protection Rank 3 (300E)
Ongoing (300E)
Removable (-150)
Weakness (-75E) Weak to AP Rounds
Agility Rank 3 (600E)
Flight Rank 1 (200E)

Descriptor: Along with her new Titan, Wraith found that it came with a custom set of pilot armor. It allows her to move quickly and precisely on the battlefield. She can run up and along wall, double jump, and land softly with assistance from her jump kit which is strapped around her lower back and secured to her waist and legs with a harness. The armor protects her from most things, but is weak to armor piercing rounds like that of the Kraber sniper rifle. Her helmet is unique in that it links to her Titan's control system allowing for HUD information to be displayed in her field of view.

Essence Cost: 1175

[Lucien Lockwood]

Username: Lucien

Name of Ability?
Golden Imperial Legionnaire Plate

Ability Effects:
Protection Rank 6 (600E)
Ongoing (600E)
Removable (-300E)

Descriptor: A set of custom fit golden Imperial plate with a chainmail undercoat. Designed and built by an Uruk blacksmith this suit of armor was commissioned by Lucien for wear during his service of New Babylon. The armor is made from hardened steel which provides better than normal protection against various weapons.

Essence Cost: 900

[Elise]

Username: Elise

Name of Ability?
Summon: Greenstripes

Ability Effects:
Summon 1 (300)
- Activation: 30 sec (-100)

Descriptor: By using an extensive ritual, lasting almost an hour, Elise can summon her personal familiar spirit. Greenstripes prefers to take the form of a Terratopus; an amphibious mollusk native to Mesa Roja that resembles a stout, walking octopus. Despite technically being alive, Greenstripes is a magical being given physical shape.

Essence Cost: 200

STAFF EDIT: Approved!

 

[Elise]

Username: Elise

Name of Ability?
Terratopus Physiology

Ability Effects:
Adaptation: Need to Breathe (200)
- Limited: Amphibious (-50)
- Finite (-50)

Movement: Swimming & Climbing (400)
- Limited: Slow on Land (-100)
- Side Effect: Mute (-100)

Shrinking 2 (400)
- Ongoing (200)
- Limited: Static Size (-100)
- Side Effect: Soft Body (-100)

Descriptor: As a Terratopus, Greenstripes is amphibious and can breathe equally well both in water and in normal air. He is still susceptible to airborne toxins and so forth, since he does have a respiratory system. He still has to return to water once a day to keep his skin and organs hydrated. He is also quite an adept swimmer, naturally, but his suckers allow him to climb otherwise sheer surfaces with relative ease. He is not particularly fast on dry land, despite being able to survive on it. His sophisticated breathing organs are not adapted for making sound, and he cannot communicate verbally.

His soft body is somewhat small and can squish itself into all sorts of nooks and crannies, and he can pass through extremely narrow space comfortably. Alternatively, his soft body does not hold up well to much damage, and he is very easily injured from direct trauma.

Essence Cost: 700

[Elise]

Username: Elise

Name of Ability?
Chromatoflage

Ability Effects:
Concealment: Sight 3 (300)
- Ongoing (300)
- Concentration (-150)
- Side Effect: Immobile (-150)
- Limited: Contact Surface Only (-150)

Descriptor: A Terratopus is gifted with extremely detailed and quick-firing chromatophores in their skin. By remaining motionless for just a moment, they can change the coloration, pattern and texture of their flesh to match whatever surfaces is directly under or around them. Greenstripe's magical intelligence allows him to create particularly excellent camouflage in this way.

He is still limited by the need to remain motionless while camouflaged, however. Even the slightest movement might draw the attention of someone actively looking for him. It also requires his full attention to control the pigments and glands within his disguised flesh.

Essence Cost: 150

[Elise]

Username: Elise

Name of Ability?
Suction Arms

Ability Effects:
Debuff 3 (300)
- Ongoing (300)
- Concentration (-150)
- Weakness: Growth (-75)
- Side Effect: Attached (-150)

Move Object 4 (400)
- Limited: Anchor Point (-150)

Descriptor: Greenstripes is terrifyingly strong for his size as a Terratopus. Using the full power of his clinging suction pads, he can shift 800 pounds of material with relative ease. The limiting factor is that this strength is only mechanically maximized when he is able to pull on something from between two anchor points. For example, dragging an immense rock along the ground is simple, but pushing it would be difficult.

This immense strength can also be used to latch on and wrap around enemies to restrain, constrict or otherwise immobilize them. Naturally, he has to remain latched on to the target at all times, which leaves him exposed to counterattacks. and continually grappling and adjusting his many arms also takes his full attention. Additionally, he can only effectively grab creatures of average size or smaller. Anything with a larger size (growth) generally tends to take him for a 'ride'.

Essence Cost: 475

[Elise]

Username: Elise

Name of Ability?
Familiar's Bond

Ability Effects:
Communication: Telepathy (100)
Limited: Greenstripes (-50)

Sense: Greenstripes' Sight & Hearing 1 (200)
- Indirect (100)
- Concentration (-50)
- Limited: Greenstripes (-50)
- Side Effect: Override (-50)

Descriptor:
Being that Greenstripes is a being created from Elise's own magical power, she has an intuitive and personal connection with her little familiar. She can, at any time, communicate telepathically with the Terratopus as long as he is summoned.

She can also focus her full attention on the magical bond with her familiar, Elise can tap into Greenstripes' perception of his environment from a distance of 150 feet away. This obviously requires Greenstripes to be manifested, and within range. Additionally, the sights and sounds around Greenstripes completely override her own as long as she maintains this concentration, leaving her effectively unaware of her surroundings.

Essence Cost: 200

[Elise]

Username: Elise

Name of Ability?
A Handy Little Familiar

Ability Effects:
Master Skills:
Technical (Digital Security) 2
Drive (Cars & Trucks) 2
Pilot (Aircraft) 1
Technical (Mechanical) 2

Descriptor: Over the course of serving Elise, Greenstripes has learned basic proficiency in a range of useful skills. Being Elise's chauffer, he knows how to get around in a variety of vehicles as well as keep them in good shape. Greenstripes has been getting better with navigating computers and digital security ever since Elise paid for his night classes.

He's also a licensed cosmetologist and a pretty good cook, but there are no categories for those.

Essence Cost: 350

STAFF EDIT: Approved! Cooking and cosmetology would fall under Craft, though.
