Fusion/Buff Question - Alex Mercer - 04-10-2017
Alright, so I have a thought about using Fusion as a prerequisit for a Buff instead of as a move in and of itself... So Fusion states that it combines the power of the creatures that fused, but what if it was not used like that 100% of the time.
My question is this: If Zenith fuses with a Prime, can it offer slight buffs instead of its full Stats? For example, a move that bestows its Survivability to that which it bonds to. Another move that bestows a healing factor (which I intend to get later,) based on the Host's Defense (then combined defense when full Fusion is active.)
To simplify, can there be two levels of fusion, where the "Lesser Fusion" can be maintained constantly, while the "Greater Fusion" is an "Active" ability. Fodder could be that it is painful to fuse with the Symbiote at that level, and very tiring being it both induces and feeds off Adrenaline. Fodder and Mechanic wise, I don't see rules against it...

If you fuse with another prime the rules of fusion is in place, so there is no lesser fusion and full fusion. The fused character will have all the stats/ powers/ moves that both characters have. However, if you wish to use lower stats for story purposes or want to place restrictions on your character you are allowed to do so.

Furthermore, you can be fused with another Prime indefinitely outside of a fight, but the second you initiate an official fight, that's when your SP starts ticking down.

I meant like 0 stats, for a maintained fusion, primarily outside of combat. Essentially, it would be less "Iron Man armor" and more "Bath robe." To be honest, I mainly want this for out-of-combat situations. I could fodder it that "It only offers its bonuses in Fight or Flight situations" so it could symbiotically bond with a prime, but only offer its full benefits for a brief moment before exhaustion sets in.

That's fine. There's lots of precedent for this kind of fluff; just make sure your partner is on the same page.
