at-will, swift; build a static charge, which causes heavy lightning damage on next contact with an enemy. Or, at-will, swift; ferric object repels or attracts ferric objects within 1 square. Or at-will, std, ranged; heavy lightning damage, or no damage plus stunned 1 rd (Con neg). At rank 2, Lightning strike can chain to 1 target + prof bonus when expending 1 Focus; or, reserve 1 Focus to activate Static Charge as a free action once/rd. At rank 3, lightning damage causes 100% vulnerability to lightning damage (non-stacking).

You control the Electromagnetic Force, allowing you to control electricity and magnetism.

Rank 1

• Magnetize: at-will, std, concentration; target metal object becomes highly magnetized. Any other ferrous objects within 1 square are attracted to or repelled by it.
  • If unattended, they simply move. Attracted objects cling to the target, while repelled objects fly away (push 3).
  • If attended, the wielder can either let go, or fight the effect (Str negates each round). While under the influence of magnetism, a held object (such as a weapon) has disadvantage to attacks.
  • If the target is a suit of metal armor, you can make it stick to itself by varying the magnetic charge on different pieces. This causes the subject to suffer a 50% movement penalty.
• Static Charge: at-will, swift; you build up an electrical charge on your body. Thereafter, you can release it along with a touch attack, a metal melee weapon attack, or upon physical contact with any other creature or object (such as when a creature hits you with a natural weapon). When released, it causes heavy lightning damage.
  • By expending Focus, you can add a stun to this effect. Subject suffers stunned for 1 rd (Con negates).
• Magnetokinesis: as Telekinesis, but only for ferro-magnetic targets.
• Lightning Strike: at-will, std, ranged; heavy lightning damage. Or, no damage, but subject is stunned for 1 rd (Con negates).
  • By expending 1 Focus, you can affect all targets within 2 squares. 2 Focus -> 4 squares. etc
  • By expending 2 Focus, you can cause your Lightning Strike to chain up to 3 times to different targets in range. 3 Focus -> 6 jumps. etc

Talents

• Lightning Shield: by reserving 1 Focus, you can automatically activate a Static Charge as a free action every round.
• Ionization: whenever you inflict lightning damage on a subject, you cause Ionization, which imposes Vulnerable 100% (lightning) for the next instance of lightning damage they suffer.
