Yuri's Wendigo form has become stronger than ever; his weight and mass forming out like a cancerous mutation.
You gain the following benefits as long as only availiable when they are a Wendigo.
Your Brawn rating is increased by 0. You may Exert your Mind to automatically gain an Outcome of 5 on any roll that uses Brawn (cannot be used on combat rolls or Effect activations).
You weigh at least 2500 pounds. All rolls to swim, jump, climb, or fly are made at +2 Difficulty. Many vehicles, structures, and similar have trouble supporting your weight and might break or not operate properly.
You also gain the following effects:
A soft whisper can be heard in Grace's voice. The sound puts the mind to rest as the thoughts comes to surround the trauma within their subconscious to mend it. Putting into a peaceful state as a song pierces their soul to replenish the mental state back to normal.
Exert your Mind to activate. Select a Living target within arm's reach. Over the course of one Downtime, your patient must communicate with you and reveal at least one of their Traumas to you, including the details of those Traumas and the circumstances of how they were acquired. After the full treatment time has elapsed, roll Charisma + Occult at Difficulty 6.
Your target may Resist. If your treatment is successful, you may remove one of the patient's revealed Traumas without incurring any Experience cost.
As Amdusias starts playing his violin, he briefly returns to his hairy demonic form for as long as his song goes on. Flames burst from the target area, seemingly billowing rhythmically with the sounds he plays.
A melody so warm it will melt even the coldest hearts, bright enough to light the darkest forest and captivating like ten million fireflies.
Exert your Mind (only for extinguishing a fire, no cost for starting one) and spend an Action. Select a target within 20 feet which has both fuel and oxygen available (if you are starting a new fire). You must actively and obviously use a Violin to activate this Effect.
You may start or extinguish a fire as large as a fire in a residential fireplace at your target. Your fires require fuel and oxygen in order to continue burning.
Lighting a target on fire deals 3 Damage each Round on your turn, starting in the Round after the one in which they caught fire. This Damage is reduced by Armor, but the target’s Armor rating will be depleted by any Damage dealt, destroying the Armor once it reaches 0.
You may extinguish flames as a Reaction. This does not extend to explosives.
Possession of this Power grants the following Trauma at all times: Lost in the Song (Upon hearing music, roll Self-Control. On Failure you have to use this ability at the next possible moment or take 1 Mind Damage if you're restrained).
You emit a sudden flash and your body is washed with a wave of metallic energy, granting you increased protection.
Exert your Mind and spend an Action. Roll Brawn + Athletics at Difficulty 6.
If you succeed, you create a barrier around yourself, which absorbs the next Outcome +4 Damage. The Damage reduction from the barrier is applied before Armor. You may only have 1 active barrier at a time.
The barrier will fall after two hours, or if it absorbs the full amount of Damage. When a barrier falls, you cannot use this Effect again for a minimum of 2 Rounds.
Vita doesn’t know who leaves the notes. Or who’s filling her bag when she’s not looking. One moment she’s patting her pockets in frustration, the next she’s elbow-deep in her backpack, muttering something like “Where’d I put that grappling hook?”—and then it’s just there.
Wrapped up with a sticky note in pastel ink, maybe a doodle of a smiling beast, or a scrawled message like “You’ve got this! (Don't forget to hydrate!)”
Whatever mysterious creature or Fey trickster is behind this, they clearly adore her. And they have excellent timing.
Vita stops mid-action and dives into her tattered bag like she’s reaching into a cupboard. As she rummages, the bag gives off a gentle pulse—like a heartbeat made of glitter. A faint whiff of lavender or old moss drifts out. Then she yanks out the exact thing she needs: a crowbar, a thermos, a coil of rope, perfectly sized and freshly made.
Taped to it is a colorful note. Something silly. Something personal. Something unnervingly specific.
This isn't a spell. It isn’t a trick Vita learned. It’s something that just… started happening. Maybe it’s because of Bapha. Maybe it’s all the strange creatures she’s helped and all the pacts she didn’t realize she made. But now, when she needs something—really needs it—her bag becomes a little door to somewhere else.
Not just to the object, but to the intent behind it.
It’s not just gear—it’s kindness made tangible. A gift of utility from something watching her journey closely, tucked between worlds. She keeps the notes. She folds them, presses them flat, and stores them in an old mint tin.
They’re proof she’s not alone. Even when she’s rummaging in the dark.
Exert your Mind and spend 1 minute. You must actively and obviously use a bag that can hold this object to activate this Effect.
Choose an Object which could fit inside a regular backpack (up to 27 liters). It must be Non-Alien and generic. You cannot create explosives. You cannot create firearms.
Roll Dexterity + Thievery to fabricate up to 5 copies of your chosen Object. The Difficulty is assigned by the GM and depends on the specificity of your chosen Object. The created item lasts 2 hours.
It started with bodies in the water, her first day at work after falling down a rocky slope in a dream that left her bruised, missing jewelry, and smelling like a goat...
You gain the following benefits at all times.
Your senses are enhanced in the following way.
The doctor heals severe injuries in minutes using only standard medical supplies. Lacerations seal under the needle and thread, and reset bones can be used shortly after.
However, for the treatment to last, the patient must adhere to any aftercare regimen the doctor requires. Those who violate the doctor's orders suffer their injuries anew.
Exert your Mind and spend 15 minutes. Select a Living target within arm's reach. You must actively and obviously use basic medical supplies to activate this Effect. Choose a specific Injury on your target that has not yet been treated with this Effect and roll Intellect + Medicine at Difficulty 8.
If you succeed, the Injury is reduced in Severity by your Outcome. If you reduce its Severity to 0, the Injury is fully healed. Otherwise, it is partially healed and will heal the rest of the way at its natural rate.
This counts as a successful Makeshift Stabilization if the Injury was not already Stabilized; any Battle Scars caused by the Injury will remain. You may specify a specific condition that the patient must adhere to. If they break this condition, the treatment is immediately reversed. Record this regimen as a Condition. Lasts until the end of their next Contract or 1 month for non-Contractors.
The Doctor examines their patient and gives a standard medical checkup, asking them questions, nodding to themselves, and muttering arcane medical jargon. The examination reveals an extraordinary amount of detail about any medical issues suffered by the patient.
Spend one minute. Select a Sapient target or a Creature within arm's reach. You must actively converse with the individual in question for one minute in order to gather any information. At the end of your investigation, roll Perception + Medicine at Difficulty 6. The target may Resist.
You learn all the following information about your target:
The quality and specificity of information gained depends on your Outcome.
This Gift cannot have more than 3 Drawbacks, and its Gift Cost is capped at 2.
You cannot investigate the same target more than once per day.
True to their namesake, the hacker can penetrate the security of any computer system, granting access to its informational stores, or, in a pinch, allowing them to issue commands. The hacked system will display a flickering image of a ghost until it is dismissed.
While hacking, The Technician's fingers move with supernatural speed, blurring like a ghost.
Exert your Mind and spend 1 minute. Select a Computer within arm's reach. Does not work on Alien technology. Roll Intellect + Technology, with the Difficulty set by the GM depending on the security of the system you are hacking. Sapient targets can resist by rolling Mind at Difficulty 6.
If you succeed, you may issue a single command to the targeted system. This command must have a specific outcome or be a request for specific login credentials. The command you issue must be within the machine's current capabilities. For example, you cannot order a standard security camera to grow legs and walk around.
If your command does not require bypassing the security of the target (for example, typing on a computer that is unlocked), you do not need to Exert your Mind to activate this Effect, and activation only takes a single Action.
Your Hack cannot be reversed through mundane means for a number of hours equal to your Outcome.
Every hack you make leaves behind a flickering image of a ghost in the system as a personal "calling card" that informs anyone who uses the system that the hack occurred.
The spy can twist the urban environment to their whims, erecting fences, walls, and barriers as needed. They whistle and gesture to where the wall should be, and the surrounding materials fly into place.
Exert your Mind and spend an Action. Select a Location within 50 feet. You must be in an area abundant with man-made structures and materials.
Select one of the following alterations to create out of standard building materials originating at the target:
The alteration begins to form when you activate this Effect and finishes forming on your initiative in the next Round. Until it finishes forming, it is not guaranteed to function.
This alteration lasts one minute but may be prematurely destroyed or altered. Your alterations may be broken through with appropriate tools. Anyone attempting to break through must roll Brawn + a relevant Ability. A cumulative Outcome of 6 across all attempts breaks a hole large enough to move through. See the extended system text for GM guidance on various tools.
By slowing the hands of one of their watches, the time-traveler may interrupt and slow a target's movement through time. The target appears to be moving in slow motion for the duration.
Exert your Mind and spend an Action. Select a Animate target within 20 feet. You must actively and obviously use a watch or clock to activate this Effect. Roll Intellect + Science at Difficulty 7.
If you succeed, the target will suffer a dice penalty equal to the Outcome for the next 2 Rounds. Dice pools may be reduced all the way down to 0 by this penalty. This breaks Concentration.
You may activate this Effect as a Reaction to contest any Action a valid target is taking, reducing their Outcome by your own. Your command has no impact beyond disrupting their Action.
