Secret Meat Compartment Proper meat storage is an essential part of any home kitchen, even when you're on the go.

1
The power to store things in a hidden stash.
Used by Brioche Vidal, Created by BobDylan530.
( You must actively and obviously be using a chef's toolkit.)

Brioche has learned to modify chef's tool kits to include secret meat compartments, where he can store fresh remains so that scavengers and cops cannot access it. To get to it, he unattaches a snap fastener near the top of the kit, and instead of opening to his knives and spices, it opens to a small refrigerated compartment.

Spend an Action to activate. You must actively and obviously use a chef's toolkit to activate this Effect.

You may withdraw an item from your stash, or add an item that is within arm’s reach to your stash. You may store butchered or cooked meats in your stash, each no larger than something which could fit inside a briefcase (15 liters), and you may store up to 15 of them at a time.

  • Containers which hold multiple things may count as a single item so long as the things within are generally packaged together. For instance, you may stash a clip full of bullets, a medical kit full of medical supplies, or a box of crackers, but you cannot stash a backpack full of miscellaneous equipment.
  • You may only attempt to store Objects which are free-standing and disconnected from other things. The use of this Effect will not allow you to sever any connections holding an Object in place.
  • The Maximum Object Size parameter is intended to roughly capture the weight / size restriction of items and isn’t intended to restrict shape. GM discretion is advised. A human being is level 4 in the Maximum Object Size parameter.

Your senses are enhanced in the following way. Lasts for three hours.

  • Thermal: You are able to "see" heat signatures within your line of sight.

Lasts 1 minute. Whenever you use your Movement, after all other calculations, the distance you may travel is doubled.

Outside of Combat, any non-Gift, non-movement Actions you attempt take drastically less time to complete, as long as your personal speed is a factor in the Action. Total time reduction is determined by the GM and capped at 90% (executing the Action takes no less than 1/10th the normal time).

  • The time reduction on non-Movement Actions applies only to the parts of actions when your personal speed is a factor,: pouring water or smoking a steak are not affected, but constructing a shelter or picking a lock would be. The GM will determine how much the total time is reduced based on how relevant personal speed is to the task.
  • Any Encumbrance penalty to your movement still applies, but you do not suffer from any sort of exhaustion.
  • Damage from a collision depends on your speed at the time, as well as what you hit. GM's discretion, but generally moving faster than a car on the freeway and hitting a dense, solid object like a wall or a tree should be lethal. Mundane armor will not apply, but any supernatural forms of protection will.

  • This includes any objects that come into range during activation.
  • This Effect does not satisfy the line of sight targeting requirement for other Effects.
