We needed to find a way to make it... more. More visual, tactile, concrete, imposing, thrilling — we needed to sell the next step in realspace control! So with some tuning and, regrettably, input from Visual, we figured out how to define the White Witch: as the most terrifying, alien thing you’ve ever fucking seen.”",

This was the line that many on the team were afraid to cross, the question we had all asked ourselves once we bracketed the platform: what happens when we apply it to a person? What does existence mean when it can be ended with a thought?”",

The barrier is a solid object that can be used for hard cover by any character, and the first time in a round any character is knocked back into the barrier, that character takes 1d6 AP kinetic damage. You can only have one barrier deployed at a time, if a new one is deployed, the other dissolves."

We handed them a power that gods of death and war had coveted since Cain cracked a rock over Abel’s head, and they told us, ‘if we can’t see it, we can’t sell it.’ So we mucked around and made another diadematic little wonder for them, the F-Barrier. It’s brilliant. Of course it is. We’re Exotic Materials, brilliance is easy.”",
