Conner has been tattooing his whole life. The contracts have imbued his tattoos above mortal realms. He can alter the lifeforce of those he tattoos when he focuses on imbuing the art with lifeforce mingling it with those he tattoos. By using special material to create the ink the tattoos Conner creates can delve into abilities far beyond what could be achieved with regular materials.

Through the reflective surface, Nathan invites a specific damned spirit, commonly with an offerring of some sort, bearing the appalling appearance of their particular death, squirming into his body, gifting his reflection a misshapen conjoined ghost which lends its capabilities.
The possessor of the spirit can always see their disturbing form reflected.
Spirit possession is practiced by spirit mediums, which has a deity who is invited to take over the their body, granting noticeable alterations to the practitioner. This capability stems from the nature of the mediums, who if compared to vessels are unfilled unlike most adults. This grants them space that deities can occupy.
Nathan cannot do that, he does not have the reach to even commune with a deity, let alone invite their presence but with part of his hun as a reflection, he can replicate some aspects of this effect, calling upon the dead, or even only parts of them. After the occupation is complete, then the real work can be done, transference.

Zelvi prepares the target for surgery, and spends 30 minutes performing surgery upon the target in order to implant them with Cyberware. If the Gift has a critical failure, the body rejects the Cyberware and bleeds heavily. Otherwise, the Cyberware is safely implanted, causing no significant adverse effects to the target.
Exert your Mind and spend 30 minutes. Select a Living target within arm's reach. Roll a single D10 as a critical failure check. If you roll a 1, the Effect fails, and you cause the target to gain the following: Severity-4 injury - Severe blood loss (2 pints). The target can easily Resist.

Kyrie has developed a monstrous degree of strength and durability thanks to her mutations, allowing her to lift extraordinary weight and tank damage like it's nothing. When pushing her strength to the limit, her hair seemingly congeals and thickens as her blood pumps through her body.
You gain the following benefits as long as you have your VISCOUS, BLOOD RED HAIR.
Your Brawn rating is increased by 3. 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).
Possession of this Power grants the following Battle Scar: BLOODIED KNUCKLES: Your hands tremble constantly: bruised, bloody, seeking action. You leave blood on whatever your bare hands touch, and fine-object manipulation is rolled at -1 dice, PATCHWORK FLESH: Strips of your skin have been replaced by unnerving, freakish grafts. All social rolls are made at +1 Difficulty. The Beautiful Asset is suppressed as long as you have this Battle Scar, and DEATH CORE: Your heart has mutated horrifically to pump the blood within you, leaving it susceptible to damage. Called shots to your heart (Outcome 6) deal +2 damage.
If you are witnessed actively using this Effect, whoever sees it can make a Perception + Alertness roll at Difficulty 6. A complete success reveals the source of your power.
You also gain the following effects:
Kyle doesn’t work with spells or surgeries.
He works with instinct, touch, and time —
rewriting flesh the same way a river carves stone.
When he chooses a target,
he draws close, crouching low,
his fursuit flexing and bristling in sympathy with the task ahead.
Clawed fingertips trail lightly over the target’s skin or fur — not cutting, not scarring —
feeling the hidden currents inside them.
Over the course of eight long hours,
Kyle coaxes new traits to the surface —
teaching the body to grow differently, to adapt, to awaken things buried in its own potential.
There is no anesthetic.
No clean break between who they were and who they become.
Every change leaves a mark on their soul —
a whisper in their blood that they are no longer entirely themselves.
When the process finishes,
the target rises not with stitches, but with new instincts stitched into their flesh.
Sharper claws.
A hidden pouch.
Armor-hard skin.
The ability to move faster, breathe underwater, or carry hidden tools within their bones.
It isn’t magic.
It isn’t technology.
It’s natural evolution —
sped up, focused, and delivered by Kyle’s own hands.
Exert your Mind and spend 30 minutes. Select a Living target within arm's reach. The target can easily Resist.

When using this power Ajax must first connect deeply with the world around him and draw upon his own divine essence. Through his senses, he reaches for the subtle threads of life that weave through the world. His hands begin to glow faintly, the green light becoming more intense as the energy gathers at his fingertips. As his fingertips graze over the injuries they are suddenly met with the soft petals of blooming flowers and moist moss as plants erupt from the wounds.
This power was not meant to heal mortals and as such has disturbing effects on the average person. The overflow of sudden vitality causes the wound to flood with blood and make disturbing squelching sounds as the plants greedily drink it up. If the plants are exposed to extreme temperatures they will shrivel and die causing the injury to relapse. After a month of proper care they fall off on their own, similar to a scab.
Ajax's journey to the mortal plane was in search of Nature's Salvation and while he envisioned himself as the solution it seems he isn't yet ready to cure his Mother's illness. Drawing upon the restorative powers of his divine essence he discovered that the root of the problem wasn't within his ability to heal. His power is able to fix the broken bodies of mortals with ease but has not provided his Mother solace from the pain she suffers as he had hoped. Even though he can't heal the overarching sickness affecting Mother Nature, it offers a moment of peace, healing those in need and providing a glimpse of Nature’s resilience and power to survive.

Exert your Mind and spend 1 minute. Select a Living target within arm's reach. Choose a specific Injury on your target that has not yet been treated with this Effect and roll Perception + Occult at Difficulty 6.
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. Your patient is required to avoid being exposed to extreme temperatures for the next month. If they violate this rule, your treatment is immediately reversed.
Anyone who witnesses you during this Effect's activation will almost certainly be disturbed to see the patients skin wriggles and writhes before plants burst through the wound as blood pours out. Horrific squelching sounds will come from the wounds as the plants drink the blood.
Who wouldn't want one of the mad scientist's famous implants? All it takes is a little time and a few terrifying experiments, and you too could be a better you!
