Cleatus takes a good look at the lock in question as if pondering some invisible angles on it, then. Puts his foot against it and slams his boot into it, causing it to turn even if the lock wouldn't normally operate with such an interaction as the door or mechanism turns immediately and violently in response to the force, activating and unlocking in defiance of all that is holy and logical.
Spend an Action to activate. Select a door, lock, or locked target within arm's reach. Cannot be used on Alien technology. You must actively and obviously use A boot to activate this Effect.
You may lock, unlock, and/or open your target.
This Gift's Cost is capped at 2 and cannot be increased further.
Cleatus may be a bad cop, but he isn't a bad man. He doesn't enjoy leaping to violence as a first response despite his hollering, and after asking to have some time with the Dust Devil in the events following his encounter with the nation's fiercest bikers he discovered that he had been.. changed. It seemed taking the right approach and having your heart in the right place seems to have its benefits. Now buoyed by the winds that run through his hair as he hits the highway like the riders of old. Cleatus drives like the bat out of hell he was born to be. Tailwinds and aerodynamics are now a never properly understood memory. Though he does still hear the nattering whispers of the wind spirits he's now become attuned to, and as a result, he's beginning to feel like there's more to being American than the red, white, and blue, and his passengers will hear similar nattering whispers. Like intrusive thoughts compelling them to remember what's important, and to not allow anyone to take what's dear to them without a fight. You have to protect it. You can't allow them to take it again. Wait.. again?
You gain the following benefits as long as you are piloting any vehicle.
You receive +2 dice to any rolls to pilot a vehicle.
You also gain the following effects:
Since his reform Cleatus has had some trouble getting in touch with the more sensible side of things, but with some help from a good friend and a healthy dose of therapy Cleatus has gotten in touch with the part of him that really understands how people around him feel, and with a little elbow grease and a hearty conversation the two of them can reveal all sorts of hidden things, and with a little brow beating Cleatus can extract things that the target in question would never have wanted exposed.
Exert your Mind and spend one minute to activate. Select a Sapient target within 20 feet. You must continuously interact with the individual in question in order to gather any information. At the end of your investigation, roll Brawn + Influence at Difficulty 6.

The quality and specificity of information gained depends on your Outcome.

Any information you gather is A series of verbal questions and made publicly available.
Cleatus has always been quick as a whip, well. Physically, but this latest gift has given him an extra pep in his step that takes him beyond that kind of thing. After getting particularly drunk during his last outing, Cleatus woke up practically constantly as loose and relaxed as he had been when he was sauced. Now constantly benefiting from that state of snappy relaxation, Cleatus finds it easier than ever to react and roll his way into battle. Though he doesn't know that it was in fact a drunken request to be like this forever to a harbinger he met while blasted out of his mind after the last job that resulted in this.
You gain the following benefits at all times.
Your Dexterity rating is increased by 1. You may Exert your Mind to automatically gain an Outcome of 5 on any roll that uses Dexterity (Cannot be used on combat rolls or Power activations).
You also gain the following effects:
As the star glints in the sunlight Cleatus is imbued with the firearms skill and knowledge of the good old boys who have come before him, every hunt, every moonlit one in a million shot, and exactly how they made it comes flooding into his mind as he's granted the skill of every gunslinger the great state of Indiana has ever laid claim to. Though with it comes the independent spirit of those who came before it, and as new to magic as Cleatus is he finds it hard to resist these impulses they've forced upon him.
You gain the following benefits as long as you are wearing this Artifact and engaged in combat with firearms.
+2 dice to all firearms rolls.

A black colored, military designated, and SCP branded 6 wheeled, all terrain capable, APC equipped to operate in any environment on the planet and now modded to function even underwater. Transitioning smoothly between on land and underwater Cleatus's mods to this APC show his talent as a mechanic.. even if he doesn't really understand what most of the parts are ACTUALLY called, his own internal system seems to have produced an anomalous vehicle perfect for the tasks he tackles on the day to day.
This Artifact can be used as a Big Bessie (Modded Foundation Anomaly Transport APC). It is roughly the same size as a Big Bessie (Modded Foundation Anomaly Transport APC) but can be collapsed into A decactivated.50 BMG bullet on a chain and concealed. Collapsing or expanding it costs a Free Action.

You also gain the following effects:
Takes out the Mk VI and waving around the Mk VI after entering in the hume reading of the area, It starts showing the object on the screen and on the side of the screen is a arrow that points towards it.
Exert your Mind and spend at least two Actions performing the following ritual: Takes out a Mk 6 and must enter the area base hume reading. to activate. You must maintain Concentration while activating this Effect, and it fails if you are interrupted.
You automatically detect the closest of any Object that has a different Hume reading from the Area within 50 feet of you for the next ten minutes. You have a clear sense of both the distance and direction towards the detected item. You get details of what each detected item is, as if you've glanced at each object.
Even if there are no Object that has a different Hume reading from the Area within 50 feet of you, you become aware of the direction the closest one is in, as well as a rough sense of its distance from you.
While this Effect is active, you are at -2 dice to all Actions and cannot Concentrate.
The Mk 6 is a rectangular object approximately 5 x 5 x 10 cm. It is a model developed by Meng Hao over multiple months of research and development. When activated and slapped on an object with the back to the object, the object will have its temporal characteristics changed. The object rapidly ages before it essentially turns to dust.
Due to its nature as a prototype, it is recommended to not be used with any object bigger than the size of a duffel bag. It is also sometimes unreliable due to its nature as well.
The Mark 6 is a innovation based off of the original XACTS Mark 1. While usage differs significantly from the original. Isolation of its effects has been put to use in multiple instances. While not working on living biological matter (believed to be due to the fact that living biological matters may be affected by quantum entanglement and to affect these matters means to be able to affect multiple versions and forms of them at the same time.) The Mark 6 works great when it comes to needing to eliminate waste or other inorganic matter such as plastic. The effects resemble natural decay/erosion. While through normal means plastic would just be grinded down to minuscule plastic bits, the mark 6 completely turns it into dust! its rather extraordinary.
Exert your Mind and spend an Action to activate. Select a Non-Sapient Object within arm's reach no larger than a duffel bag (35 liters). Roll a single d10, Difficulty 4. If you fail or botch, the Effect fails and you cannot activate it again for an hour. Roll Intellect + Technology Difficulty 6.
If your Outcome is 4 or higher, the target will be completely destroyed and can no longer function, though it may still be repaired. If your Outcome is less than 4, the target will be partially damaged, and any attempts to use it will suffer a dice penalty equal to your Outcome.
