I have a character with a device that we're porting over from another game
system. It is essentially a disco ball that can hypnotize a small crowd. One
component of this is a dazzle effect, which basically attracts the victim's
attention so that the ball can do the hypnotism.

Can someone point me to a "dazzle" effect in the books so I have some hard stats
to base the effects on?

I looked up Flashbangs in the books and the numbers were not very helpful...

Maybe there's an effect somewhere, but this seems very much the sort of
thing I'd just make up some ad-hoc rule for. Not everything has to be a
natural consequence of the rules.

I might rule that a PC would look automatically, unless the player
specifically states that he won't look. Unless the PC actually closes or
shields his eyes, I'd require a Will roll to avoid being unwillingly
drawn by the dazzle.
