Mental shields are “in genre” for psis, shamans, wizards, martial artists, and others with training at gathering inner strength to ward off psychic incursions. In worlds where mental powers are commonplace, anyone might be able to build up a
精神防壁 (GM’s decision).
In settings with many different supernatural powers and abilities, the GM should let
精神防壁 add to IQ, Will, and Perception for the purpose of resisting any paranormal influence --including
有利な特徴 with the 「
幻惑的」 limitation (p. 11). For less sweeping protection, add Limited (below).
With the Cybernetic limitation (-50%),
精神防壁 represents “hardened” computer security for Digital Minds. Cybernetic is a specific example of Limited; don’t take both.
■代替案(Alternatives)
魔法の耐性 (p. B67) and certain varieties of
耐性 (p. 71) protect against many of the same things that
精神防壁 does. Static (p. 98) is a superior defense, but prevents the user from having other psychic abilities.
People who have studied “mental self-defense” might have the skills
強靭精神 (p. B209) and
精神防御 (p. B210) instead of
精神防壁.
■追加特別限定(New Special Limitation)
Limited: Your
精神防壁 only works against certain mental attacks. An entire power source (e.g., divine, magical, psionic, or spirit) is -50%; a specific focus, power, or college of magic (e.g., Telepathy or 「
精神支配」 spells) is -75%.
■パワーアップ(Powering Up)
精神防壁 is a traditional part of Telepathy, extremely appropriate for chi and spirit powers, and often available for divine, magical, and moral powers, too. Active use of a mental shield to block a mental attack shows up frequently in fiction. The GM should consider allowing Power Block (see p. 168) for
精神防壁 even if he doesn’t permit it for other abilities.
才能 adds to all such attempts.
