Makara can suck the air from a room, impose a feeling of drowning or claustrophobia on a victim, and make them feel as though they are being dragged down into an abyss. Once per scene, a Makara can impose a -2 penalty on all Physical actions for one turn on anyone within (Lair x 10) feet. She can choose not to affect certain characters with this power. Characters that don’t need to breathe are still affected; the Birthright only imposes the feeling of drowning, and doesn’t actually affect airflow.
