BASE ABILITY[]
Once per session as an out-of-turn incidental, the character may spend 2 Destiny Points to activate Peerless Interception. Until the end of the character's second turn after activating Peerless Interception, when they use Parry or Reflect to reduce the damage of a hit, they reduce the damage by an additional amount equal to their current Force rating.
UPGRADES[]
Activate Quality Upgrade: When the character uses Improved Parry or Improved Reflect to inflict a hit on an attacker while Peerless Interception is active, they may choose to activate one item quality of the attacker's weapon (if using Reflect) or their own melee weapon (if using Parry). Apply the effects of the item quality as if the character had spent the minimum necessary advantage results to activate it as part of a combat check.
Critical Counter Upgrade: While Peerless Interception is active, when the character spends a despair result to inflict a hit on their attacker using Improved Parry or Improved Reflect, they may choose to also inflict a Critical Injury.
Destiny Upgrade: Peerless Interception costs 1 fewer Destiny point to activate.
Effortless Counter Upgrade: Once per round when the character uses Parry or Reflect while Peerless Interception is active, they may use Improved Parry or Improved Reflect to inflict a hit on their attacker without spending a threat or despair result.
Increase Duration Upgrade: Peerless Interception lasts for one additional round.
Increase Frequency Upgrade: The character may activate Peerless Interception one additional time per game session.
Reduce Strain Upgrade: While Peerless Interception is active, the character only suffers strain to use Parry or Reflect the first time they use each talent during a round. Subsequent uses of Parry or Reflect during the same round do not require the character to suffer additional strain.
