Re: [ORE] Shared/Gestalt Extra?

In the book The Rook there is a character called Gestalt who is 4 bodies with one shared mind.  These bodies can act independently or in concert with each other anywhere on the planet.  While I am not sure what exists in the rules at this moment (been a while since I have looked at character creation and the powers etc for WT), I would imagine that this power would should have a range characteristic (how far the bodies can be from each other), an independence characteristic (how easy it is to perform completely different tasks with each body simultaneously), and a in concert characteristic (how the bodies can work together).


Maybe they could be 3 separate extras?

There are other aspects of the character that could also be modeled but to describe them can be a bit of a spoiler for the book, and those that would want to read it might not want those facts revealed.

I'm unfamiliar with the concept, how do you see it being implemented?

Reading the subject I thought about something different: What about having a power who feeds from common views/memes/Jung archetypes/etc.? Something like the avatars in Unknown Armies.

Best regards.

Short version: is there an extra like "gestalt" that allows characters to pool their dice for a miracle they have in common?

Example: 4 fallen angels each have one die of Cosmic Power with the "gestalt extra," they can all take an action to roll 1 pool of 4 dice, or cooperate in some ritual to gain bonus dice for taking extra time.

I want them to have the proverbial snowball's chance to use the power alone but really its for the group to use for something particularly miraculous (like altering a community to remember 4 teenagers that didn't previously exist complete with places in separate families).
