Black Morph Arm: Ooze Form “A snippet of what my science can do.”
Putting on the mask, he takes a deep breath in as black fumes emanate from it. Breathing though it, a large, black, ooze-like arm forms from his back, near one of his shoulders.
It follows the same motion that his arm makes, depending on what side it is on. This is easier to focus on, but he can move them independently.

You gain an additional limb that functions as a standard human arm and hand. Lasts two hours.
Each additional limb you posses can take one Quick Action per Round without incurring a -2 dice penalty to your main Action. Any Battle Scars that affect or remove your additional limb will heal in a single week.
Your appendage is capable of bending and squishing in normally-impossible ways. It may fit through any gap that is not water-tight and retain its functionality.
Your extra appendage can stretch to reach an additional 30 feet.
You may turn this Effect on and off at will during its duration.
- You may stretch or retract your limbs once per Round on your Initiative.
- You may only switch this Effect on or off once per Round on your initiative as a Free Action.

Charlatans
“Unsettling are the days in which everyone is an expert.”
― Criss Jami
Nowadays you can't go a day without some phony prophet trying to peddle their wares to you.
Driven by the increased interest in the supernatural, charlatans from palm readers to televangelists are everywhere. And while the vast majority of witches, psychics, magicians, hypnotists, cures, potions, faith healers, and clairvoyants are complete fakes, they do make a living.
As the saying goes, "it's easier for an actor to make it in alternative medicine than Hollywood."
Most people scoff at these clearly-phony supernatural services, yet those same people often buy into at least one scam.
The most dangerous charlatans are the self-styled monster hunters who carry a mall-ninja arsenal and guns with silver bullets. Most have never encountered anything supernatural and do absolutely nothing besides burn some sage and patrol the area for a night or two. Even so, those who are superstitious, fearful, or desperate enough will hire them to solve the problems they simply don't understand. In some cases with disastrous results.
For Contractors, charlatans are red herrings and obstacles. Clumsy fakes that conjure a smokescreen of misinformation and escalate the situations they're in.

Right Arm of Penny Robberts
An arm for an arm for an arm
Innocent blood spilt, not by your hands, but in them. She was not dangerous, but these contracting murderers did her away anyways, and when you tried to fight this violation, you were punished. So now you shall punish them. Penny left behind a gift, her arm. Now, Frankensteined and in a new world, she seeks to go on these death quests to protect the innocents that may get caught in the crossfire.
The arm is healthy looking, though due to your ethnic differences and amount of outdoor activities, the arm is considerably tanner than your own sickly pale skin, so it is much preferable to wear gloves and long sleeves.
When used as a weapon, the arm sprouts long, thin strands of blood that are harder than steel.
You gain the following benefits at all times.

Centurion Dusk Grapes
Tannins should pair with proteins, but not like this!
A firm grape with a deep purple, almost black coloration. It is full to the brim with bitter, wine-like juices, and bursts easily when bitten. Moments after ingestion, spindly grape vines press their way through the consumer's shoulder, mildly tearing the skin and twisting into a firm, tight appendage.
Marcielle's fourth attempt at cultivating the perfect crop. Though potentially excellent for creating wine, the plant itself is aggressive and mildly carnivorous, its roots producing a substance that slowly breaks down proteins. As a result, it is not viable for average agricultural purposes.
Increase your sacrificial Injury's Severity by 1, use up this evening purple grape , and spend an Action.
