Elemental Extraction (3.5e Feat)

Elemental Extraction [Origin]

Your superhero is capable of calling forth one of the four classical elements (picked upon taking of feat) and utilizing it for personal nees or gain.

Prerequisite: Use of the Super or Sinister supplemental mechanic.

Benefit: Depending on the exact version (see Table:Elemental Extraction below), the superhero can call forth and subvert a particular element. As the character grows in level and learns to control the power, they learn to use and improve upon these abilities. When a character picks their element of choice, they are now considered immune to damage from that element (if fire or earth [blunt damage or crushing], if water they are considered amphibious and able to breathe in water and immune to depth pressure, or if air they are immune to strong winds and can glide [but not fly]).

Normal: A character would normally not be able to call forth the elements with such ease.

Special: The taking of this feat opens up the option of taking any honing feats with the Elemental Extraction prerequisite.
