Gravity as powers
I can reason out decently, how to do a reversed gravity affliction using Flight: Lighter than Air. Obviously, a few more things than just this, but it's a basics for reversed gravity.
What I'm unsure of, is how to do the "pull" effect of a gravity well. I reason that one of its main components would be a crushing attack with persistent, aoe, dissipation(?) to lessen it's effect the further away from the center it is. I think it'd also have Binding, or something similar as it's really supposed to be quite hard to escape a gravity well. Thoughts, insights, input, please? |

Re: Gravity as powers
GURPS Power Ups Enhancements has a Mass Affliction you might like.
That said Control (Gravity) is one way to do what your asking about, another is Telekinesis with Attraction.

Re: Gravity as powers
Something that gets weaker when you're further from the center is canonically Explosion. I would also mechanic a gravity attack as ignoring all armor.

Re: Gravity as powers
For a "pulse" of gravity that pushes or pulls, I use crushing attack with double knock back and no wounding and a few other things.

Re: Gravity as powers
I like the idea of combining Telekinesis with Explosion and Attraction for a everything gets attracted to this spot power.

Gravity area attacks could have that modifier, but would also have "Cosmic, Irresistible Attack" because they ignore armor.
