Radiation Control

Related Stat: Intellect
Related Powers: Light Control, Sonic Control

Your character can control radioactivity, such as microwaves and gamma radiation. The character absorbs such radiation from the environment or generates it personally. Radiation is a dangerous force, causing mutations and disease. Sometimes, its effects don't show up for years.

The most basic application of this Power is to project a burst of harmful radiation out around the character, inflicting the Power's intensity in damage to all within striking distance. The character can also project a bolt of radiation at one target.

Limit--Collateral Damage: Any time the character damages someone or something with this Power, everyone within striking distance also suffers the damage.
Limit--Toxic: Your character gives off background radiation at all times. This can either inflict the Power's intensity in damage to all within striking distance, or cause disease (see Affliction). If the character is in a containment suit, this Limit is controlled.
Limit--Unstable: If the character is using his or her Powers in a fight or other tense situation, the character may fire an uncontrollable burst of radiation at a randomly selected person or object.
Stunt--Absorption: Your character gains Absorption (Radiation). This radiation can be absorbed before it can do damage to others, even if not directed at the character.
Stunt--Affliction: Your character gains Affliction, but cannot cure the diseases.
Stunt--Blinding: Your character gains Blinding.
Stunt--Flight: Your character gains Flight.
Stunt--Force Field: Your character can create a personal Force Field. This shield protects against physical and radiation-based attacks.
Stunt--Heat Control: Your character can alter the heat levels within firing distance by roughly 10­° Fahrenheit per point of intensity. A character with a 20 intensity can thus make a 50° room into a 200° room in a few seconds. If the temperature goes above 120°, everyone in the room suffers the Power's intensity in damage after subtracting defense. This Power can be targeted at one individual.
Stunt--Heat Sphere: Your character forms a globe of heat that inflicts the Power's intensity in damage to anyone or anything that comes through. At 6+ intensity, this Stunt melts lead bullets before they can hit.
Stunt--Mutagenics: Your character can cause strange reactions in the bodies of mutants and those under the effects of radiation. The mutation has a 50­% chance to be positive or negative.
