Shooting Around Corners

Rote · Mage

Mage

An infamous trick for mages with Correspondence 2 and Matter 2 involves shooting at one place and having the bullet come out elsewhere. On a similar note, a willworker with Forces 2 can “bend” the forces of gravity and momentum in order to send projectiles around obstacles. Either application is, of course, vulgar; shitty movies to the contrary, people know you can’t really “swing” the trajectory of bullets around… can you?

Assume that an Awakened gunfighter who takes the time to cast the proper Effect (or use a ritual-focus gun and bullets, bow, or what-have-you) can shoot around corners by adding +3 to her Dexterity + Firearms difficulty. This trick works only with projectile weapons, however. A beam of energy needs to travel in a straight line, although a reflective surface might allow you to bounce a shot or two off of its reflection if the target’s visible in that reflection as well. Chances are good, though, that blasts of concentrated energy will turn such mirrors to slag after the first or second shot, so this stunt has very limited utility.

Like Deflecting Missiles, the “shoot around corners” trick works only on a turn-by-turn basis. Khan could fire off a single burst of bullets that “bend” in theoretically impossible ways, but he can’t pull that trick throughout an entire gunfight unless he keeps employing the forces Effect with each shot or single burst of bullets.
