Leech and Touch Attacking

Arith Winterfell · 03-25-2020, 05:48 PM

So I'm trying to create a Leech power for a necromancer character, and I was reading that the base power requires prolonged touch, usually a grapple. What modifiers do I add to make it an attack that only requires touch (not skin to skin, just one hit on an opponent drains the Leech level of HP). I figured the close attack might, but that's a reduction in cost rather than raising the cost, so that didn't seem right.

Or would I need to do something like set it up as a malediction first, then applying close range, no parry to that instead of the ranged modifier?

What's the right approach here?
