Name of Talent: Petrifying Gaze
Concept: Petrifying Gaze is, at it's core, the ability to completely paralyze a living creature from head to toe simply by gazing upon it with one's eyes. Unlike beasts of lore and legend, Petrifying Gaze's effects do not turn people into stone statues and are actually quite temporary and curable. The paralyzing effects of Manya's gaze wear off completely after just two hours. Though prolonged exposure or direct eye contact has been known to have effects which can last for as long as an entire day.

Extra(s):
-Manya has grayish silver colored eyes because of this talent.
-Manya's eyes glow whenever the effect is triggered by gazing upon a living target.
Positive Mechanics:
-Gazing upon or looking at a living creature directly causes full body Paralysis which lasts for 2 hours. (Certain medicines can counteract this effect.)
-Gazing directly into a living creature's eyes causes full body Paralysis which lasts for up to 24 hours. (Certain medicines can counteract this effect.)
Negative Mechanics:
-Paralyzing effect triggers automatically whenever looking at others.
-Blocking line of sight prevents Petrifying Gaze from working.
-If Manya sees the face of her own reflection either through a mirror or some other refractive surface, she becomes nauseated for a short period of time.
-Manya's Petrifying Gaze does not work on beasts of magical origin.
