--- Quote from: Mr. Death on April 07, 2012, 05:18:27 AM ---Duplicio I see as a block against Alertness that the enemy has to surpass in order to land a successful attack, similar to a veil. The way I see it working is, when she casts it, a pair of illusory doppelgangers pop out and maneuver around Lian on the battlefield, with the Alertness roll representing the enemy's ability to sort out which one's real. A failed roll means they pick the wrong target and can't attack her directly, a successful Alertness roll means they target the real deal and can act directly against her. Indirect attacks, like going 'Screw it' and filling the zone with fire or simultaneously attacking all three images via a spray attack, might work, of course.
--- End quote ---
I'd rephrase it as a block against perception. You seldom, if ever, block a single skill. Most blocks target a class of actions such as movement, attacks, maneuvers, or perception.
Mr. Death:
Yeah, that makes sense. Mostly I singled out Alertness because I felt that would be the one most applicable to a fight--Investigation I saw as needing more time to assess something, Lore I saw as too imprecise. But I'll reword it and leave it up to the player or GM to decide.

Machine Possession [-4]
Alpha can possess any machine within a 100 meter of his current body or over any radius if his consciousness is inhabiting the internet. To do this Alpha must make a hacking roll (scholarship) vs the machines security. Machines he possess are immune to hexing whilst he is in them as they become part of his body. These bodies are then controlled by Alpha's scholarship (hacking) skill (if he takes over a car he can drive it with Scholarship etc).
No Physical Body [-3] Alpha does not have a biological body and therefor cannot die like a normal person he is immune to long term physical consequences once he possess a new body.
