Drain Emotion

Skill: Drain Emotion (IQ/Hard).
You can drain all of the emotion out of a person. Roll a
Quick Contest of your skill against his Will. If you win, he loses
the ability to experience any emotions for (10 ¥ your margin of
victory) seconds. He retains his own mind and personality, but
he will only take actions based on logic. You, on the other
hand, experience his emotions for the duration! These are usu-
ally manageable, but especially strong ones may require a Will
roll to maintain your composure.
Level 1 requires skin-to-skin contact to use. At level 2, any
touch will do. Level 3 can be used at range; apply a -1 penalty
per yard of distance to the subject. Level 4 takes normal range
penalties (p. B550) instead.
