Mask of the Thousand Faces

This potent ability does not hide you from the gaze of others, but makes you appear as someone other than who you truly are. Your appearance does not actually change -- you simply make people think they see someone else.

System

The player must roll Manipulation+Acting (difficulty 7) to determine how well the character assumes his mask. Refer to the chart to see how successful the attempt is. 1 success -- People could still pick you out of a police lineup. 2 successes -- The character looks somewhat different; subjects describe him differently. 3 successes -- The desired look is successfully broadcast. 4 successes -- Appearance, movement and actions are completely different. 5 successes -- The character can even appear as someone of the opposite sex.

Clarification: You cannot look inhuman. If you can take other forms, you still look like that form; if you are a wolf you could look like a very different wolf.
Clarification: Changes do include clothing and the whole image.
Clarification: This power is able to do two things: 1. Look like a non-specific person, just different than you. A Hispanic gangbanger, a suit, a MetSec officer, a bum, etc. 2. Take on a specific image. This is more difficult, requiring one extra success than it would otherwise on the chart. Whether it is an image you have created before, or mimicking a particular person. After some practice at a particular image you may ask staff to +comment it on you to do away with the extra success penalty.
