PATHOS EXCHANGE (COUNTED TOUCH)
Cost: None
Call: “Tapping 1, Tapping 2, Tapping 3”
Touch a target in the same realm with you and attempt an initiation count. If successful, you may give pathos, “Giving pathos 1, giving pathos 2, etc.”, or you may take pathos, “Pathos drain 1, pathos drain 2, etc.” Targets that are not wraiths are immune to this power and state “no effect”.

You may not take pathos in excess of your maximum pool, nor may you give pathos to a target in excess of the target’s maximum pool.

Effect Type[edit]

As per the Core Rules..

COUNTED TOUCH
A counted-touch power, such as Health Exchange or vampire biting, is initiated by a three-second count that can be resisted by moving away or attacking the caster to interrupt his count. If a draining count begins after the initiation count, then the target will be immobilized and unable to speak until the draining is complete. The completion of a counted touch is considered an attack for the purposes of interrupting other powers. A “bleeding” count is considered an attack each time it does damage.
