Description : The hero is specially attuned to life within an urban enviroment. This enviroment may be a specific city or may encompass many different cities of differing types. A hero with this ability will begin to suffer debilitating effects if removed from a city enviroment. The degree that this suffering takes is dependent on the character conception, but may range from loss of powers to eventual death. City Manipulation is a potentially potent ability and, as with all Manipulation powers, should be closely monitored by the GM.
