Here's a new supernatural asset! Thoughts?
Vitalist (5). A character with this asset can draw upon the strength of like-minded believers. To do so, your character must first spend a Move or Attack action in order to meditate or proclaim a short prayer/invocation to his god. This act of prayer or meditation calms the area of the brain associated with the character’s sense of self, making him feel more connected to the spiritual and the world around him, as well as temporarily increasing the his neurotransmitters’ ability to absorb and manipulate the Flux. Now, before you roll the dice on his next action, if you spend at least 1 Flux Point to add a bonus to that result, your PC gains an additional bonus of up to X points, where X is equivalent to the total number of allies within a 30-foot radius (a 2,827 square foot area).
However, there are some caveats associated with this power. First, each Flux Point that you gain for this roll is 1 FP permanently lost from an ally, so each player must declare that he or she is willing to give it up (the Director makes this determination for any nearly allied NPCs). Second, you can only absorb a FP from other Flux-powered individuals (i.e., those whose Core Competency is Touched, Gifted, or Fluxed); non-powered persons don’t provide FP. Finally, note that you gain Building Points based on the FP that you spent (as normal), but not on the FP drained from your allies.
