Exert your Mind and spend an Action to activate. Select a Sapient target within arm's reach. If a target does not consent to the transfer, you must roll intellect + occult at Difficulty 6 to use the effect on them. They can resist by rolling either Body or Mind at Difficulty 6, depending on what you are attempting to transfer to them.

You may choose a single instance of one of the following to transfer from your target to yourself, or from yourself to them:

• A single Trauma
• A single Injury and any Battle Scars it caused

Anyone who witnesses you during this Effect's activation will almost certainly be disturbed to see your arm turning into a fleshy tendril with a leach like mouth and latching onto the target.

Exert your Mind and spend at least two Actions performing the following ritual: Puking up black mucus to activate. You must maintain Concentration while activating this Effect, and it fails if you are interrupted.

Summon a single Eldritch Squid at your location. They will last until they are destroyed. They are controlled by the GM but will follow any commands you give. You may have at most 1 minion active at a time.

Minions have 4 Body and can make ranged attacks at targets up to 30 feet away with 5 dice to attack and +1 Damage. Your minions can move 45 feet per Round as Free Movement, and double that when performing an all-out Sprint. They cannot dodge or Defend. They have dog-level intelligence, and cannot communicate back to you. Any Perception checks they make are rolled with 3 dice.

Your minions can fly at their normal movement speed.

Anyone who witnesses you during this Effect's activation or for its duration will almost certainly be disturbed to see you coughing violently as you puke up a small squid like creature covered in black mucus.

Expend a point of Battery and spend 2 Actions. Select a Sapient target within 20 feet. At the end of your investigation, roll Perception + Occult ( dice) at Difficulty 6.

You learn all the following information about your target:

• You learn the target's name, nicknames, screen names, and aliases.
• You learn their 'role' in the current Contract or Move. This might be a relevant occupation like A Mechanic or their purpose in the current context such as A Sacrifice. May potentially reveal a Contractor's archetype or paradigm, whichever is more relevant, when they aren't acting as A Contractor.

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

You cannot investigate the same target more than once per day.

This Artifact can be used as a Bus. It is roughly the same size as a Bus but can be collapsed into A armored coat underlayered with chainmail (T3 armor), its coloring is shades of Stygnian Cobalt and concealed. Collapsing or expanding it costs a Quick Action.
