Strength: Resistable by Will?

Post by Shock »

I had this idea the other day for a power where the user isn't actually strong but his force of will makes it hard for others to resist his movements. So, like he couldn't pick up a car but he could win an arm-wrestling contest with someone much stronger than he is. It would impact things like grappling and other contests of pure strength. He doesn't hit hard but he could block a blow from a powerhouse with no apparent effort. Unless your will is strong enough to realize that he isn't really stronger than you are.

Does Enhanced Strength (Resistible by Will) make sense for something like that?

I'd go Move Object, Range Close, Damage, additional resistance Will.

There are too many things strength does you can't really replace them all. Maybe this captures the flavor though.
