--------------------------------------------------------------------- Skill : Overpower Class : Babau Cost : 10 / free to stop / 20 to gaze Casting Time : 1 Difficulty : Level 1 Stats Base : Mostly Strength with some Dexterity and Constitution Syntax : do overpower do overpower <target> do overpower stop do overpower gaze Examples : do overpower bok A Babau's incredible strength and intimidating nature makes it possible for it to overpower an enemy, subduing it for a short time. The Babau exerts its will and weakens the body and soul of the target, causing them to crumple under the Babau's power and remain held to the ground. During this time, neither the Babau nor the victim can move or perform most actions (such as using skills, buying items, quaffing potions, eating food, even playing harps). Additionally, during this time all combat ceases - it is as if both beings are in a temporary hold spell. Any combat from outside sources will break the hold over both creatures and while the victim cannot move, the Babau can easily 'stop' the hold at will or simply move from the room which also breaks the hold. If the Babau's skin is coated in its corrosive slime, then a slight amount of damage will be taken by the victim periodically due to the contact of their skin. The Babau posses the ability to 'gaze' into a victims eyes, and more directly into their soul. This gazing can only be done to an overpowered victim and results in a draining of the victim's strength into the Babau. This strength remains in the Babau after the overpowering hold has been broken and will slowly seep out of the Babau back into the victim. A Babau will find it difficult to overpower beings of greater size than themselves as well as those with high strength. ---------------------------------------------------------------------
