You can exert control over the processes of life and, perhaps, over organic matter itself. You can disrupt the biological functions of another creature in your line of sight like a Nauseate effect (with a Fortitude save to resist; see the Nauseate effect description for details).
Countering
Life Control can counter itself and Healing effects, disrupting their beneficial effect on a subject. For a broader ability to counter effects with biological descriptors, see the Alternate Powers in the following section.
Alternate Powers
- Boost: You can enhance the physical ability scores of a subject, a Perception Range Boost effect at your Life Control rank.
- Drain: Your can weaken the physical ability scores of a subject, a Perception Range Drain effect at your Life Control rank.
- Emotion Control: You can influence a target|s emotions through control over glandular secretions and neuro-chemistry, giving you an Emotion Control effect with the Fortitude save modifier.
- Fatigue: You can drain a target|s biochemical energy, a Perception Range Fatigue effect at your Life Control rank.
- Flesh-Shaping: You can mold flesh and bone as if they were clay, reshaping them as you see fit as a Perception Range Transform effect (living things into other living things) at two-thirds your Life Control power rank.
- Healing: You can restore health and balance to biological systems, a Perception Range Healing effect at your power rank.
- Stun: You can inflict pain or shock against biological creatures, a Perception Range Stun effect at your power rank.
- Suffocate: You can cut off a creature|s ability to breathe, a Perception Range Suffocate effect at your Life Control rank.
Associated Effects
- Enhanced Constitution: The power to control life itself may infuse and enhance your own being, giving you super-human Constitution and associated abilities to overcome disease and toxins, and recover from injury, along with the associated increase in your Fortitude.
- Immunity: Your control over your own physiology may grant you Immunity to certain effects like aging, disease, and poison. See also the Immutable power in this chapter for Immunity suitable for a life-controlling character. If this Immunity requires some concentration on your part, make the effect sustained (also allowing you to perform power stunts with your Immunity).
- Regeneration: Mental control over your body allows you to recover quickly from injury even when your attention is focused elsewhere or you are physically incapacitated.
