DREAD GAZE

Cost: None
Duration: Varies
Subject: One character
Range: Short
Action: Simple
Cooldown: Immediate.

When the Antagonist makes eye contact with another character (which, if used in combat, requires a roll — successes must exceed the target’s Defense), she may functionally incapacitate that character. The actual effect may vary; the target may be paralyzed, terrified, helplessly enamored, etc. In any case, she is unable to break away from the Antagonist’s stare. However, the Antagonist cannot take mixed actions while using this Flair, and cannot Move without using a basic action — otherwise, she loses eye contact, and her target is freed. If the target is Blind, Dread Gaze is ineffective.
