Two Trees sprout from Tattoos on Conners back. One is the tree of Life and the other is the Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil. Conner can rest here even when he walks through the valley of death. Grass grows around him in a radius of 45. This gift was bestowed upon Conner by his guardian angel once a day a minute of harmony and relaxation.


take a Severity-1 Injury and spend an Action or Reaction to activate. Make a Trauma roll when you activate this Effect. Roll Charisma + Occult at Difficulty 6.

Create a repulsion field which extends out 15 feet from you in every direction, and lasts for the next minute. Any Animate targets within the field cannot move any closer towards you. If they were within 15 feet from you when you activated the effect, they are immediately pushed back to the edge of the repulsion field.

You may spend an Action or Reaction and roll at Difficulty 6 to use your repulsion field to Defend against all attacks made towards you during that round of Combat. This does not break your Concentration.

When you activate this effect, you may designate any number of specific individuals to exclude from the Effect. Anyone designated in this way is unaffected by the repulsion field, and can approach you as normal.

You must remain standing in the same location while this Effect is active. Moving to a new location will interrupt your Concentration and end the Effect.

You may only use this Effect once per day.

Select one of the following alterations to create out of Plexiglass 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 three hours 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.

  • Attempting to break any alterations with inappropriate tools may damage or destroy the tools at the GM's discretion.
  • Any structures you create leave precise gaps for obstacles in their path or push them out of the way. You cannot directly destroy objects or structures or damage beings by creating walls or domes.
  • Tool guidance for GMs:
    • Difficulty 9: Brawn 5, no tools.
    • Difficulty 7-8: One-handed tools or makeshift tools (like a sword). Mythic Brawn without tools.
    • Difficulty 6: Appropriate manual tools. Crowbar, sledgehammer, armor-shredding attacks.
    • Difficulty 4-5: Power tools, vehicles, explosives.

  • Overwhelming: Anyone inside the zone cannot Exert their Mind, and Mind rolls made within the zone are at -2 dice.

You may spend an Action to end the possession early. While the effect is active, you may switch into a new target without Exerting your Mind.

Stats: Any Actions you take will use the possessed creature’s Brawn, Dexterity, and Perception, but use your own Charisma, Intellect, and Abilities.

If you are forced out of the target's body prematurely, you must make a Trauma roll.

If you die and there is a Augmented Creatures within a mile, you instead possess them indefinitely.
