Description:
The great defense against Slaying firearm attack. Use of this ability allows the character to deflect any one ranged or firearm weapon attack allowing them to avoid the damage and/or effect of the attack. This ability is only useable if a melee weapon is in the user’s hand and against a melee attack that is delivered from in front of the character and announce the tagline “Deflect Slay Bullet” clearly. The only attacks that cannot be deflected with this ability are Fatal attacks, Maiming attacks, attacks, Burst attacks, Full Effect attacks, and Terror attacks. Additionally, unforeseen extra ordinary ranged attacks including but not limited to attacks from behind, attacks from invisible creatures, or the like cannot be Deflect Slay Bulleted. However, “normal” (as defined by the Weapon Parry ability) as well as Savage and Slay attacks from an unforeseen attacker can be deflected via a Deflect Slay Bullet. Using a ranged weapon to Deflect Slay Bullet an attack requires the character to remove one arrow, bolt, or bullet from their inventory per time used. Note: Arrow and bolt phys-reps should not be physically struck with the melee weapon. The ability cost 28 SP per use.
