The Keanu can extend the duration of this defense by an additional 5 minutes by expending a Willpower.

Gotta Make sure Jason Feldman gets the credit he deserves for writing at least half of this.

The people asked, we delivered.

I think I really want heroic Keanu Reeves.

You are about to choose one of these heroic skillsets and it shall be your final one. This is your last chance. After this, there is no going back.
If you choose the John List, you will wake up in your bed and forget about ever having another choice. If you take the Keanu List, you will see just how far the rabbit hole goes. Remember, all I'm offering is a buff, nothing more.

Excellent!!

... literally

Now we need the write up for Heroic Door... I was going to take that one!

There is ONE last ability we forgot for Heroic Keanu:

If The Bus Stops It Explodes (Continuous)

If you are running in a straight line as a hold is called, you may continue running for the duration of the hold, however, you may not turn or stop running for the entire hold. If you stop or are stopped, you and all allies within 20 feet take 200 Fire Damage.
