If a character has paid the points for a Discriminatory Sense, would any Detects built using that Sense also be treated as Discriminatory? For example, if a character has paid to make the Smell/Taste Group Discriminatory, would Detect Toxins (Smell/Taste Group) function as Discriminatory without paying additional points?

Thanks to everyone for your responses and great suggestions! You've given my some things to chew on and I think a workable power will emerge. It may be a matter of rule semantics or me just overthinking things, but my reasoning was as follows: Trigger is used to activate a power when a defined circumstance occurs. In my concept the power is activated when the character makes the initial attack, but the target does not suffer any damage from the attack until the defined circumstance occurs. Trigger seemed to be the best fit, however if a strict reading of the rule is applied it doesn't "match up". Damage Over Time delays the first application of damage from an attack for a specified time period, but I wanted the damage to begin based on an event rather than a time period. Delayed Effect lets you prepare and store a power for future use while I wanted to delay the effect of damage on a target.

I am trying to build a power where the character attacks a target normally, but the damage from the attack does not effect the target until a specified event occurs. The power itself is an EGO and PRE Drain that is modified to function as a Mental Attack. The concept is a power for a vigilante who wants to target and attack an unsuspecting evildoer without a direct confrontation. Then, the next time the evildoer falls asleep, he suffers from horrifying nightmares that sap his willpower and courage and weaken his resistance to further mental or presence attacks. I've looked at Damage Over Time, Delayed Effect, and Trigger, but none of them really match up with the concept. Does anyone have any suggestions as to what may work? Or would it be better to get with the GM and work out a homebrew solution?
