Official Move Approval IV

[Blink]

Well, I have Master Teleportation, and the range is 80 meters, so I don't think that needs to change. I already put OM into that power which dictates my range so I feel like 80 is fair.

I'm cool with having it be a charging ability or on a cool-down timer. Either of those are good with me.


Speed Teleport

Usually, creating portals and teleporting requires a lot of effort for Blink - especially at max range of 80 meters. This move will allow Blink to teleport much quicker, in rapid succession, in order to dodge a powerful move or to distract opponents. This gives off the 'Blink' effect as she goes in and out of view swiftly. She can use it to teleport one other person with her through direct contact, but anymore then that requires the same amount of time/energy has usual. This ability drains a good amount of energy so she can't use it several times at once; she'll need to wait awhile before trying to do a 'teleport burst' after doing the first one.

Oh, I wasn’t trying to limit your range. I was more asking how distance from Blink effects energy cost, ‘cause teleporting 80 meters away from your foe would be a lot more taxing than appearing like, a foot to your left.

I guess I, uh...don't really think the distance SHOULD matter, since I bought Master Teleportation, and I feel like I already deal with energy costs through that power. I hear what you're saying about how more distance = more energy, but I feel like I already account for that in my teleportation powers and shouldn't need to re-visit it with this move. If you disagree, then uh...no biggie. I'll deal. I'm only buying this move because the rules literally say that I have to: "Bear in mind that if you wish to use Teleportation to dodge Super Moves, you must create something akin to a 'Speed Teleport' Super Move of your own. "

I WILL say that I never really intended on Blink to 'Speed Teleport' 80 meters away. It's a distraction move, mainly. So not a big deal if you want to say something like...more then 20-ish meters and it'll start to get way too taxing after the first couple blinks.

With that said, would it be better if I purchased Super Speed and/or Burst Movement? I have enough OM for either one, so if those powers would help make this move a bit better for my character, I can buy those.
