Overview

Presence is one of the powersets. It is one of the sets of Power Pools available to all heroes and villains. These powers grant you the ability to provoke or intimidate your enemies.

You can manipulate your foes by provoking or intimidating them. A challenging set to master, Presence can get you into trouble if you don't know what you are doing.
