| Some characters have access to abilities that may affect more than one target at once. The mass call is used to represent this. Any call beginning with MASS affects everyone within five metres of the caster if unqualified. The ability may specify that the ability may be used in an arc. If so, the caster may choose to restrict the effect to an area delimited by outstretching their arms. Some abilities may affect only the allies of the user. In this case, the call should be appended with PARTY when used by a PC or MONSTERS when used by a monster. | Some characters have access to abilities that may affect more than one target at once.

| The target is overcome with fear, and for 15 seconds should either retreat continuously from the source of the call (in which case they can otherwise fight as normal) or cower in fear (in which case they can do nothing except defend themselves with a held weapon or shield). | The target is overcome with fear, and for 15 seconds should either retreat continuously from the source of the call (in which case they can otherwise fight as normal) or cower in fear (in which case they can do nothing except defend themselves with a held weapon or shield). | ||

| + | If a wound call strikes a limb, the victim must stop using that limb for the number of seconds specified in the call - if an arm, they should drop anything in it, if a leg, they should drop to one knee, and cannot move faster than a crawl. If you are struck on the torso with a wound call, apply the effects to the limb nearest the struck area. If you are applying WOUND through non-physical means, you should include a designated limb (i.e. WOUND RIGHT LEG). | ||

| + | ==== Entangle ==== | ||
| + | |||
| + | If an entangle call strikes a limb, the limb is bound in place and cannot be used until freed - if an arm, it should be held to the victim's body along with any contents and not moved, if a leg the victim should not move it. If a weapon, then the weapon should be aimed at the ground and not moved. An entangled weapon or limb can be freed with 5 seconds role-play of removing the bindings with a free arm. If both arms are entangled at once, the victim can escape with ten seconds struggling. A character who is currently STRENGTHENED can immediately break the bonds by role-playing pulling free. If you are applying ENTANGLE through non-physical means, you should include a designated limb (i.e. ENTANGLE RIGHT LEG). | ||
