Editing Ru's Ex3 system hack (section)

===Techniques=== 
'''(Note: this section is adapted from [http://aakin.net/wiki/doku.php?id=qwixalted Qwixalted] by Jarvis of Dog Day Games and others)'''

Techniques are built freeform from a number of tags. The cost of the technique is usually the number of tags it has, but the cost of some tags varies. Write down the name of the technique, what it does, and what tags it uses.

A given technique can only be used once per round, but a character can use as many techniques to enhance the same action as he or she wishes.

Tags:
* '''Multiple''': The technique allows a single action to affect a number of extra targets equal to the Trait being rolled.
* '''Duration''': The effects of the technique last to the end of the fight. Applies only to the Technique that it is a part of.
* '''Action''' (Cost 0 +1 per activation): The technique allows the character to take one reflexive action under a specific circumstance. If combined with Duration this technique may be activated multiple times, including in a single round, but costs an extra 1 per activation. Attacking, hitting, woulding or otherwise adversely affecting a target is specifically excluded as a valid trigger (no multi-attack for you.)
* '''Panoply''' (Cost 0): Allows the character to perform actions that would usually require equipment, without it. With one purchase, gain the equivalent of mundane equipment; for two, it's equivalent to an artifact. If the character owns said equipment but doesn’t have it to hand, a technique with this tag may summon/retrieve it instead.
* '''Range''': Extends the range of the action by two brackets.
* '''Impossible''': Allows you to perform an action that wouldn't normally be possible due to some outside circumstance. Examples include striking immaterial targets, blocking attacks that can't normally be blocked (including Irresistable attacks). Note that the outcome of the effect is still basically mundane.
* '''Dolorous''': Against a specific class of target minimum damage from a successful withering attack is raised by 2; decisive attacks ignore hardness.
* '''Irresistable''' (Cost 2): A specific class of defence is ineffective against this attack. E.g. Unblockable or undodgeable effects. This is incompatible with Duration.

Different sorts of supernatural may have other tags appropriate to their theme - see the Quixalted rules for ideas.
