POWERS:
Weaponized Conversation (Standard): Tarn can sync the timbre of his voice with the
rhythm of one Cybertronian target's spark, targeting their Willpower Defense with a
Persuasion attack. The target must be able to hear Tarn for the attack to have any
effect. If successful, the attack inflicts 3 Psychic Damage.

What Do You Say? (1/scene, Standard): Tarn may use Weaponized Conversation against
one target within 10 feet who has already taken damage from Weaponized Conversation
in the same scene. If the attack is successful, the target is reduced to 0 Health
and Defeated.

Nuke Injection (1/scene, Free): Tarn can increase the concentration of Nuke in his
fuel line. Doing so adds +1 damage to any melee attacks and grants Edge to all
Might Skill Tests. This power lasts for 2d2 turns, after which Tarn suffers 1
Psychic Damage.

Unleash Malice (1/scene, Standard): In extreme circumstances, Tarn opens his


chassis and uses the energy of the Matrix of Malice to astonishing degrees. This
leaves Tarn stunned for 2d2 rounds, and performs one of the following effects:
-Grant all allies within 100 feet Edge on all attack Skill Tests for 3 turns,
though Tarn suffers 3 damage per ally aided in this way.
-Inflict 3 Psychic Damage and Frighten all enemies within 100 feet, though Tarn
suffers 5 damage per enemy damaged in this way.
-Cause all enemies within 100 feet to use their Standard action to make an attack
against a random target, moving closer to the target if necessary, though Tarn
suffers 5 damage per enemy affected in this way.
-Activate a special scene-based game effect, though Tarn is Defeated at the end of
the round (GM's discretion).

GEAR:
Armor: Ultra-Heavy Protection Layering (+4 Toughness and +1 Health)
Weapons: Cybertronian Glaive (Might long melee), Double-Barreled Fusion Cannon
(Targeting integrated element), Particle Rifle (Targeting integrated element)
Other: 2d2 stored Energon Points, Matrix of Malice

HANG-UPS:
Nuke Rage: Tarn's use of modified nucleon can cause him to fly into a barely-
controlled rage. If Tarn is injured or successfully targeted by a skill meant to
taunt or mock him, he suffers Snag on all attacks that don't target the source of
his anger until he inflicts damage to them or until the end of his next turn.

Unreliable Conversion: Tarn's Nuke addiction coupled with his love of


transformation means he burns through T-Cogs at a rapid pace. When Tarn attempts to
convert between modes, there is a 25% chance that the attempt fails and the action
is wasted.
