Suila Innate Power

Suila Innate Power

When speaking or issuing instructions from a position of authority (which need not be official or even acknowledged by the Scion), Trivial characters cannot offer offense or leave without being given permission to do so, nor can their Attitude go negative within your presence. In addition, when giving an order to an underling (someone who acknowledges the divine Authority of the Scion), the underling gains that Order as a Short-Term Deed, and +1 Enhancement towards carrying out that order. The Scion will know when the order has been carried out.**

TAKE THE REINS

TAKE THE REINS

Cost: Imbue 1 Legend
Duration: One Scene
Subject: An organization, formal or otherwise
Clash: Presence + Legend vs. Resolve + Legend
Action: Simple
You take control of an organization, displacing its immediate leader in its hierarchy — if it has no defined leader, you take control outright. All members of the organization acknowledge your authority and follow your directions as appropriate for the organization: the staff of a bank won’t spontaneously become an army at your direction, for example, but you could certainly order security to remove someone from the premises. This Boon does not function on player characters without their player’s permission.

If an Annuna fails at a roll crucial to the success of the Deed, she may accept a Consolation of success at a cost of future Complications to related rolls.

ORDAINED PURPOSE

ORDAINED PURPOSE

Cost: Spend 1 Legend
Range: Short
Duration: One task
Subject: One person
Action: Simple
Long ago, Enki and Ninhursag wagered that they could find a suitable role in society for any sort of person, regardless of disability or disadvantage. With this Boon, you designate a task that you want the subject to complete. Although they are not compelled to obey, so long as they are performing that task, they ignore any Conditions (including Persistent ones and Injuries) that would impede its completion. Ordained Purpose does not resolve or otherwise remove the Condition in question, but merely makes it so that it does not present an obstacle: Someone with a broken leg could run at their full speed to deliver a message for you, but they could not stop along the way to take part in a dance competition.
