Description

You possess a high-tech, futuristic or super-scientific weapon capable of generating energy blasts. With it, you can make ranged attacks as per the Blast power or may attempt to overwhelm the target’s visual senses as per the Dazzle power.

Decide whether the blaster’s Affliction effect is resisted by Fortitude or Will when selecting this power. The choice is permanent although you could target the other resistance as a power stunt (see Powers Stunts).
