Kinetic Fortress

"I don't catch the bullets. I make them stop wanting to fly."

Bastion Soul R3 · Power Psionic

Cost: 1 Erosion
TN: 13
Tempo: T6
Steps: Yes
Resist: —

Effect

For 10 Ticks, all ranged physical projectiles within Close range of you are slowed to a crawl and drop harmlessly to the ground. This includes:

Bullets, arrows, thrown weapons, shrapnel
Telekinetically thrown objects
Debris from explosions

Ranged attacks cannot target or pass through the fortress. Melee attacks function normally.

Steps

+5 Ticks duration per Step.

Special

You can see the bullets hanging in the air — suspended in the null field, spinning lazily before losing momentum and falling. The fortress does NOT stop psionic attacks that aren’t physical (Phantom Pain passes through; a telekinetically thrown rock does not). For total projectile shutdown including psionic damage, layer Kinetic Fortress with Absorb (R2).
