Jordan speaks one command, and briefly, a shadow of something not of this world can be sensed behind him. Something more powerful, more domineering, more worthy of fear and obeisance. His eyes glow with a color you can’t quite place on the visual spectrum, and little pebbles and rocks hover off the ground as the air grows tense. Then the tension fades, the pebbles clatter down, and the commanded creature meekly obeys, as if fearful.
Exert your Mind and spend an Action. Select a Creature within 20 feet.
For the next day, you may issue specific commands to your target which they will be compelled to follow.
Your commands can be complex and multi-layered, though they must still be specific. You cannot make them obviously endanger themselves or violate their instinct for self-preservation. The effects of the command will fade after a day has passed.
If you use this Effect on the same Creature two days in a row, the effect lasts indefinitely.
Exert your Mind (unless you win a coin flip) and spend an Action or Reaction.
You phase out of reality for up to 1 hour. During this time, you cannot affect the outside world (other than non-combat Actions using your hands, at +2 Difficulty) or take any Actions. You may move as normal while phased out. You may pass through walls and "climb" up and down through solid material at normal climbing speeds. Nothing can interact with you in any way.
When you activate this Effect, you may limit its duration to a period of your choosing. If you are able, you may also end it as a Free Action on your initiative.
You leave ghosted image of herself at your location.

As the Primordial Dough's vessel, Ollie's body serves as the gateway between this world and the land of clay. In moments of need, Ollie can let out a solemn prayer to the Dough Lords, begging for their aid. In their stead, Ollie is supplied with a small garrison of Lesser Claymen, which crawl out of the seams in his flesh.
They appear to be maybe five feet tall at most, with multicolored skin and a surprising softness to them. At will, they can let out a small volley of hardened clay beads akin to birdshot from their bodies to fend off foes.
Exert your Mind and spend an Action.
Summon up to 3 Non-Sapient, Animate Lesser Claymen at your location. They last for two hours or until they move more than 150 feet from you or are destroyed. They are controlled by the GM but will follow any commands you give. You may have at most 3 minions active at a time.

David sets a table or floor appropriately and puts down a Ouji board, calling upon the spirits present to divulge in him the secrets of the item he has placed next to the board, its power and purpose. A shade appears visibly in the room to move the planchette and answer, and sometimes may audibly speak or ignore the board and more visually give answer. If the object in question is a corpse, typically the spirit of the body will explain who killed them
David has walked through the Realms of Death many times, and spoken with many of the dead. Shades are starting to be drawn to him. Where another medium would be ignored by the dead, David’s rituals draw attention, even when they are done with such non-potent materials as commonplace Ouji boards. Unlike Blavatsky, whose earlier teachings inspire him, David does claim to speak with the dead, rather than other entities (Blavatsky was notably strange for her time for claiming that unlike other mediums the intelligences she consulted with were things other than ghosts).

This Effect is obviously Alien and eye-catching across its range to those witnessing it, and you are obviously the source.
