f4nserviceBecause IV obviously wasn't terrifying enough (hahaha. no, actually, he's really not that bad), he got a brand new power from the Porter based on his deck theme: turning people into living marionettes.
He'll be able to produce invisible strings from his fingers that he can direct to attach to another person and then use to manipulate them like a marionette. The strings have absolutely no affect on the mind, so the victim will be completely aware of this, but they're also extremely hard to break free of. A regular human pretty much won't be able to; an imPort with, say, a fuckton of will-power or super-strength or pyrokenesis will find it difficult but not impossible to break free.
And for the final touch, anyone who can see invisible things will be able to see these strings, and they'll appear to glow red.
Limits:
-He can only use this power on someone within 50 ft of him, and outside 25 ft, it's an extremely draining power to use.
-He can only affect up to two people at a time, one for each hand.
-He can only use this power while his other two powers are active.
-A victim can break free with the right powers or enough willpower. Or the right friends with the right powers.
-He cannot affect the mind, meaning he can't stop someone from yelling at him the whole time (or from mind controlling him right back to get him to cut it out).
-There are probably powers out that that provide an immunity to a power like this?
So, you get another text box of stuff to fill out!
