Cypher System: Wields The Omnitrix Focus

This is for my 14 year old son:








WIELDS THE OMNITRIX
You have found an ancient alien device that stores the DNA profiles of numerous alien races and may gain their powers and form for 1 hour.


Connection: Choose one of the following.

1. Pick one other PC. This character has been your friend for a long time, and has witness your struggles with the Omnitrix.  Once in a 24 hour period they can allow you to roll a second d6 and will decide which of the two die rolls you will use, as long as they are within 5 feet of you when you use the Omnitrix.

2. Pick two other PCs. You know about an important connection between them that even they don’t know about.

3. Pick one other PC. This character has interesting ideas about the technology and how we can use it. If you are trained in Technology, after you talk to this character for an hour, you gain an asset on any task involving identifying, researching, interacting, or repairing technology.

4. Pick one other PC. He is extremely xenophobic when it comes to aliens. You want to help him, but you aren’t sure how or even whether he will be open to your assistance.

Additional Equipment: You have a several electronic devices that you use constantly.

Omnitrix Abilities: When you select a Foci, you need to choose an alien form to represent it.

Minor Effect Suggestion: The target is knocked back a short distance by the power of your attack, and the difficulty of its next task is modified by one step to its detriment.

Major Effect Suggestion: Alien technology explodes. You can target and destroy a piece of alien tech that a foe is holding or wearing.
