Rocky Deflection

Recharge: 1

Stone, Deflect, React

Prereq: SFX Stone (To)

None

You deflect an attack away with a shield of stone.

If you are on or near the ground you may play this card.

After you have been declared the target of a melee or ranged attack, place 1 recharge token on this card to add SR # of

to the attack's dice pool.

If the attack hits you, you have +SR Soak vs its damage.

Edit

Earthy Brickness

Stone, Passive

This card is always considered to be in play, but its effect only works if you are on or near the ground. Each 10 feet (3 meters) you are away from the ground imposes a -1 SR penalty. Thus if you had SR5 and were 40 feet above ground you would be considered to have SR1; if you were 50 feet or more above ground you would gain no benefit from this ability at all until you descended closer to the ground.

You gain strength from the earth beneath you.

SR1: +1 Strength, -1 initiative

SR2: +1 Toughness

SR3: +1 Strength

SR4: +1 Toughness

SR5: +1 Strength, -1 Agility

Edit

Rocky Embrace

Stone, Passive

Prereq: Discipline (To) trained

You are resistant to harm.

You have +SR Soak vs. physical attacks. If you Soak all the damage from a physical based attack, you do not take an automatic Wound.

SR1: When you gain a temporary malign condition subtract SR from the number of counters to be added to the condition before it takes effect. If no counters remain, the condition has no effect; discard it immediately.

Edit

Rocky Armor

Stone, Passive

SFX Stone (To)

You protect yourself with rocky armor.

You are coated with a rocky shell that protects you from damage and grants you strength and durability.

SR1: +1 Soak, - 1 initiative, weight: x 1.25

SR2: +1 Strength, weight: x 1.5

SR3: +1 Toughness, weight: x 1.75

SR4: +1 Strength, - 1 Agility, weight: x 2

SR5: +1 Soak, weight: x 2.25

Permanent: If your Rocky Armor cannot be turned on and off, it is a 2 point Hindrance.

Edit

Rock Hard

Stone, Passive

None

Prereq: Toughness 7+ or Rocky Armor (3)

This card is always considered to be in play.

Hitting you is like hitting a brick wall.

When you are hit by a melee attack, the attacker takes half of the damage they have inflicted against you plus SR. Thus if you had Rock Hard (3) and an attacker inflicted 12 damage against you, the attacker takes 9 damage.

Hard Skinned: As a facilitator costing 1 character point or advance, your skin is literally rock hard; you gain +2 Soak.

Edit

Rocky Road

Recharge: (5-SR)

Fatigue: 1;

Stone

SFX Stone (To)

If you are on or near the ground, you may play this card.

You accelerate, riding a wave of dirt.

1: You gain +SR movement maneuvers, and you have +1 DEF until your next Beginning of Turn phase. You can create dirt ramps to "slide down" from elevated positions to lower positions without falling. The dirt wave can be targeted and broken as if it were a device, but you can make another one each time you use this Stunt. Your dirt constructs don't just disappear on their own, and this can have an effect on your local environment.

++: you have +SR Soak until your next Beginning of Turn phase.

-: Suffer 1 fatigue.

SR5: This Stunt is equivalent to a Movement skill for basic movement needs such as traveling around a few city blocks. However the fatigue cost makes it impractical for long distance travel. Application of the Tireless Facilitator to this Stunt addresses this problem and makes Rocky Road usable as if it were Superrunning (Sliding), using SFX Stone (To) for any necessary checks. It is also still usable as a Stunt for its stated effect. The ancillary effect of all the displaced dirt will likely anger the authorities.

Edit

Earth Control

Fatigue: 1; Stress: 1

Stone, Persisted

SFX Stone (To); Medium Range

Difficulty will vary based upon circumstances and specific usage. Note that a standard dump truck holds approximately 10 cubic yards. An 1 foot off the top of an acre of dirt would be approximately 1500 cubic yards. In reality, density would matter as well, but its superhero science so don't worry about it.

1: while this effect is persisted you may move and shape a volume of standing dirt and rock equal to (SR x 5) cubic yards each Turn.

Each additional success or two boons adds +5 cubic yards.

Anything encased in earth is trapped in an Entangle with 0 DEF, (SRx2) Soak and SR # of Wounds, and further are subject to suffocation. Sentient and mobile targets may make a Coordination (Ag) check vs. Average (2d) difficulty to avoid being encased each turn they are at risk.

SR5: Tunneling: If you apply the Tireless and Stress-less Facilitators to this Stunt, it is usable as if it were the Supercommuter (Underground) Movement Skill, using SFX Stone (To) for any necessary checks. It is also still usable as a Stunt for its stated effect.

Edit

Stone Hammer

Recharge: (SR x 2)

Fatigue: 1

Stone, Ongoing, Blunt

You create a hammer of rock that remains in play while this card is recharging. Your Stone Hammer has a Damage Rating equal to (SR+2) and a Critical Rating equal to (8-SR).

I.e., if you had SR 5 your Stone Hammer would have DR7 and CR3.

You can attack with your Stone Hammer using the Melee action or an equivalent Stunt where noted. Attacks with an Stone Hammer add the following result lines:

+: The target must make a Resilience (To) vs SR difficulty check or gain the Imperiled condition for (SR)

+: The target must make a Resilience (To) vs SR difficulty check or gain the Impaired condition for (SR)

!: The target gains the Perplexed condition for (SR).

??: Shattered: Your Stone Hammer shatters; you cannot use it again until it is recharged and replayed.

Edit

Stone Fists

Recharge: (SR x 3)

Stone, Ongoing, Blunt

You create stone gauntlets that remains in play while this card is recharging. Your Stone Fists have a Damage Rating equal to (SR) and a Critical Rating equal to (7-SR).

I.e., if you had SR 5 your Stone Fists would have DR5 and CR2.

You can attack with your Stone Fists using the Melee action or an equivalent Stunt where noted. Attacks with an Stone Fists add the following result lines:

+: The target must make a Resilience (To) vs SR difficulty check or gain the Imperiled condition for (SR)

+: The target must make a Resilience (To) vs SR difficulty check or gain the Impaired condition for (SR)

!: The target gains the Perplexed condition for (SR).

??: Shattered: Your Stone Fists shatter; you cannot use them again until it is recharged and replayed.

Edit

Rocky Missiles

Fatigue: 1

Stone, React, Ranged

If you are near rocks ranging in size from pebbles to the size of a baseball you may use the basic Ranged attack action or an equivalent and play this card as a reaction to cause rocks in the area to launch themselves at the target of your ranged attack.

Your Rocky Missiles have a Damage Rating equal to (SR / 2) and a Critical Rating equal to (7-SR); (round up). Your Rocky Missiles are most effective at Medium range, but can be used at Long range with

added to the dice pool.

I.e., if you had SR 5 your Rocky Missiles would have DR3 and CR2.

You may throw up to SR # of Rocky Missiles as a single attack action against a single target up to the number of rocks available in the area; add

to the dice pool per Rocky Missiles.

Attacks with Rocky Missiles add the following result lines:

+: +1 damage; this maybe used multiple times.

++: +Pierce (SR).

!: +3 damage.

Edit

Rocky Trebuchet

Fatigue: 1;

Stone, React, Ranged

If you are within Medium range of a large rock you may use the basic Ranged attack action or an equivalent and play this card as a reaction to cause the large rock to launch itself at the target of your ranged attack.

Your Rocky Trebuchet has a Damage Rating equal to SR + 3 and a Critical Rating equal to (7-SR). Your Rocky Trebuchet is most effective at Long range, but can be used at Medium range with

added to the dice pool. It cannot be used at Close range.

I.e., if you had SR 5 your Rocky Trebuchet would have DR8 and CR2.

+: +1 damage; this maybe used multiple times.

++: if hit, the target must make a Resilience (To) check vs SR difficult or gain the Staggered condition for (SR).

Rocky Haven

Recharge: (3+SR)

Fatigue: 1;

Stone, Ongoing

SFX Stone (To)

Prereq: Prepare

If you are on the ground and engaged with no more than 1 person (enemy or ally), you may play this card. You surround yourself with a visible shell of solid rock that makes you and up to one ally you are engaged with difficult to harm.

1: While you and up to 1 other person remain inside the Rocky Haven created by this Stunt, line of sight is blocked vs people outside of the Rocky Haven, you cannot attack targets outside of the Rocky Haven, opponents outside of the Rocky Haven cannot target you directly, and you gain (SRx2) Soak vs attacks from outside the Rocky Haven that would affect you indirectly (such as AoE's). The Rocky Haven can be attacked as an independent target and destroyed as if it has 0 DEF, (SRx3) Soak, and (SR) Wounds.

++: you create a porthole or arch through which ranged attacks can be made (in both directions).

!: The Rocky Haven has (and grants) +3 Soak.

Edit

Rocky Prison

Recharge: 4

If an opponent is within Long range and on the ground, you may play this card. Entangled opponents can attempt to break free as an action with an opposed Strength check with the entangle, by inflicting damage on the entangle, or by an effect that explicitly frees them from impediments or entangles.

1: you entomb the target in rock, entangling them. The entangle has SR + 1 Strength and SR + 2 Wounds.

1: You strike the ground, causing a ground wave of devastation. Everything on the ground within Close range of you is thrown into the air, and then crashes down. People must make a Coordination (Ag) check vs SR difficulty or fall prone and take (SR x 4) damage. Breakable objects affected by this Stunt might be broken per GM's discretion. Collateral damage is a given. A Grandstand is appropriate.

4: As (1), but everything within Medium range is affected.

8: As (4), but everything within Long range is affected
