Limitation: "Quick, disable the ATR before you lose contact with reality!"
Greetings, all!
Any ideas how to price/build a case of Maximum Duration where instead of a 5-minute cooldown, there is a nasty effect (similar to a Backlash) that occurs if the user doesn't switch the ability before the duration is up (which usually involves one or more Ready/Concentrate)? Thanks in advance! P.S. The title comes from a somewhat altered quote in the translation of Jericho (probably incorrect). |

What you could do is give a Susceptibility to your own powers when they've been used longer than a certain period.

I'd probably just treat it as:
So you can keep on using it, but the Backlash will happen. |
