ways and means:
Heat Vampire [-1]
You can and must with feeding dependency plunder the life energy of living things around you in the form of body heat. To do this you can roll discipline against an a opponents endurance to steal their body heat this ability has an effective range of a zone.
Taste of death- Once per seen after plundering enough heat to kill an opponent you can take a free recovery period, recovering from all stress and minor consequences (or higher with recovery powers).
Plunder (Required Heat Vampire) [-1] Your heat stealing ability now has a weapon rating of 2. This also increases the range of the ability to 2 zones.
Snap Freeze [-1] (requires Plunder) Your heat stealing ability now has a weapon rating of 4. This also increase the effective range of the ability to 3 zones.
Field of Cold:[-2] You can plunder the heat of everyone in a zone and gain a free tag of the 'empowered' aspect for every enemy you kill after the first in a scene.
(Edit: included a range for the heat steal ability and gave the upgrades a +1 to range each which I didn't think was worth it's own upgrade.)
Sanctaphrax:
So it's like Blood Drinker, but the to-hit bonus is replaced with a new mode of attack?
I like it. Though the attack should specify a range and Snap Freeze should require Plunder.
Does Field Of Cold hit you if you use it on your own zone?
Anyway, this is cool. I plan to use it sometime soonish.

Pretty much.

I am not sure about this, the power allows you to suck the heat from a zone so if you are in the zone you will be effected by the cold but any heat being stolen from your body should also be being returned at the same time. I am tempted to leave this blank and let anyone who wants to use the power decide what they think is appropriate, what is your opinion?
polkaneverdies:
I would say no you aren't hitting yourself. Thematically it doesn't make sense. Mechanically you are paying 2 refresh instead of the normal one for zone attacks, although you aren't taking the standard -2 to the roll.
Sanctaphrax:
I'd probably go with what polka said. For 2 refresh, a little extra like not hitting yourself seems appropriate.
By the way, I like the idea of stealing heat from yourself and recovering as quickly as you are drained. I don't know why, but it's kinda funny.
