Variable Quality
Empathy gone backwards! A character with this Quality can manipulate the
emotions of others, projecting feelings onto them. They cannot, however,
direct these emotions (ie, make the target fall in love with them or fear them
specifically — they can only make the target feel love or fear), nor can they
direct the reactions the target has to the emotions. The manipulating
character can only /cause/ the emotions. The target must make a doubled
Willpower roll to resist. Failure means the character can control the target's
emotions. The basic ability costs 2 pts. For each additional point beyond the
base 2, the target takes an additional -1 penalty to their doubled Willpower
roll.
House Rule: For each repeated attempt to project one's emotions on a target during a scene, the target gains a cumulative +2 bonus to their Willpower rolls to resist.
