Power to trade 1 pt of dodge from self to ally
The idea is that this character can reflexively call out to an ally to warn them of danger, giving them a +1 to dodge, however the caller gets a -1 to dodge until the beginning of their turn because they are distracted.
As a side note, there is a sonic limitation on there, which is: Has vocal component [-10%] Must have clear path through fluid or air [-10%] Quote:

Re: Power to trade 1 pt of dodge from self to ally
I would call this a -5% MAXIMUM. The rest looks ok, but cant say how acurate is.

Re: Power to trade 1 pt of dodge from self to ally
Why does this need to be an ability at all? It seems like something that somebody can just do. Specifically it looks like an application of using Tactics as complimentary skill. It's very similar to Advice in DF2, except that instead of taking a Do Nothing, you are taking a defense penalty. It might therefore just be a technique of Tactics and you design it using the rules in Martian Arts.

This in particular is an actual power modifier for the elemental sound/vibration power in the Powers resource.

Re: Power to trade 1 pt of dodge from self to ally
Rules for what exactly? Complimentary skills? Yes, in DF, Action, Monster Hunters, and Social Engineering. For shouting Advice in combat? Yes in DF 2. For designing techniques? Yes, in Martial Arts.

I don't think there is a way to do that without a power. |
