teleport and trigger

[dsatow]

So I am making a Naruto style villain

 

They have a teleport with a trigger when dodging, blocking, or diving for cover that takes no time and is invisible.  ("I pop and turn into a piece of wood")

 

If the villain is being haymaker'd and attempts to block, when does the trigger go off?

I’m going to restate the question to avoid confusion, and to make sure I’m answering what you’re asking.

 

Q:  Suppose a character has Teleportation with Trigger (whenever character uses Dodge, Block, or Dive For Cover). If an enemy attacks him with a Haymakered power, and the character declares that he’ll Block the Haymaker, when does the Trigger activate:  in the Segment when the Haymaker’s begun, or the next Segment when it “lands”?

 

A:  The Trigger activates in the Segment in which the character declares that he’s Blocking. Typically that means the Segment when the Haymaker begins, but not always.
