Base
Technique Type: Combat / Specialty / Support Performance: Prepared Action Delivery: Selective (Targets Techniques) Range: 30ft. Effect Type: Instant
Copy Technique can be acquired as either a Combat, Specialty, or Support Technique, allowing the user to Copy a Technique that shares the same typing.
As a Prepared Action, the user may target a valid Technique whose performer or emerging effects are within range, temporarily adding it to their toolkit. For it to succeed, the user must succeed in a Potency check pinned against that of the owner of the Technique being copied. A copied Technique is stored with the same Modifications and Upgrades that the original owner’s had (which should be written down at the moment it is copied), but it utilizes the copycat's own Potency and Skill Points when it comes to Saving Throws and the likes. A copied Technique can only be performed once, but the number of uses available can be upgraded.*
Copy Technique requires an Energy charge to be expended for Copying a Technique and then an additional one for when it’s performed.
Copy Technique can only be modified by Features which target Techniques.
