UNDEAD VITALITY
Exert your Mind and spend 15 minutes to activate. Select a Living target within arm's reach. This Effect cannot be used unless Must be Undead. Choose a specific Injury on your target that has not yet been treated with this Effect and roll Brawn + Alertness 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.

Exert your Mind and spend an Action.
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).
If you were moving quicker than you could without super speed and go a Round without using your Movement, you collapse and must remain immobile and resting for two Rounds.
Temperance clutches the Mask to his chest as a small flame flickers behind it, growing larger until the mask itself begins to grow and begin to hover in the air in front of him as a wisp is reborn
by combining his latent abilities with those of Neo-GENIS, Temperance is able to temporarily return life to what was once lost.
Exert your Mind and spend an Action. You must use up carved mask in order to activate this Effect.
Summon a single Non-Sapient, Animate Greater Wisp at your location. They last for two hours or until they are destroyed. They are controlled by the GM but will follow any commands you give. You may have at most one active at a time.
Mickey sometimes struggles to keep the beast inside asleep.
When it awakens, it's a horrific sight. Skin bulges and stretches, then tears, rapidly reforming thicker and paler. Hair and matted fur sprout from bleeding follicles as bones move and grow at a different pace to the muscles, and nerves knot up around the new joints before being pulled into place. The whole body steams and trembles as rapid metabolisation of every calorie in the body in less than a minute chars the veins and leaves it starving.
Humanoid, in a way. Canine, ursine, cervine...something just on the edge of familiar.
And it's coming for you.
The strain put on Mickey's body from the transformation leaves her with a Severity - 1 Injury after transforming back, which stacks with any injuries gained as a result of rapid transformation.
If this transformation was done out of Hunger reaching the 3rd level and it was not sated within the time frame, this is instead a Severity - 2 Injury.
Exert your Mind and spend an Action. This Effect cannot be used unless your transformation is long and excruciating. A standard transformation takes 30 seconds (10 rounds), but this can be rushed at a cost. If rushed, transformation can be done as an Action, but when transforming back, you receive either a Minor Battle Scar, a physical liability or condition, a significant change in appearance, or a Severity - 1 Injury. The Scar or Condition gained from rushing like this is exchanged for another if done again, not stacked (in the case of Injuries, healing time is doubled). and you do not remember anything that occurs while transformed unless you succeed on a Mind roll or figure it out through investigation. Whenever you fail or botch a Trauma or Self-Control roll, you must activate this Effect.
You transform into a 'werewolf' for 30 minutes. You have access to all of your Powers while you are a 'werewolf', and you can use your equipment. The Injuries and Battle Scars of your Alternate Form and your true form are tracked separately.
While transformed, your Brawn is increased by 2, your Dexterity is increased by 2, and your Perception is increased by 2. You do not suffer any Stress while transformed.
Your body is adapted to moving silently, sprinting, and finding food (meat). You receive +3 dice on non-attack rolls related to moving silently, sprinting, and finding food (meat).
Anyone who witnesses you during this Effect's activation or for its duration will almost certainly be disturbed to see you gruesomly shift into a terrible wolf-human hybrid.
Your alternate form renders you unable to speak any human language and incapable of fine object manipulation. You can only hold or grasp objects in a crude, clumsy way.
After this Effect ends, you cannot move quicker than a walk (15 feet per Round) for one minute and suffer a -1 dice penalty for an hour.
While transformed, you automatically fail any Mind roll to resist an impulse and suffer -3 dice on all other Mind rolls.
Johnny Rooks uses his cold avian stare to passively see all nearby living things.
Exert your Mind (unless you win a coin flip) and spend an Action.
You automatically detect the closest of any Living Target within 300 feet of you for the next hour. This includes any who come within range during the duration. You have a sense their direction and distance.
Any Living Target detected while the effect is active are “marked”. You will continue to detect them until the effect ends, no matter how far away they move. You will also continue to detect them after the effect ends, so long as they remain within 300 feet of you.
In your last stand, you have gotten desperate. No one else is left, Only you and the enemies ahead.... Your blades lack the strength.... But your soul still lingers.... Tear yourself apart, detonate yourself, piece by piece, atom by atom, blood for energy. Destroy yourself Haerin, You can still win... I hope. Cut yourself apart...
Increase your sacrificial Injury's Severity by 1 and spend an Action. This Effect cannot be used unless You are grappling someone. You must actively and obviously use Sword to activate this Effect. You must make a Trauma roll when you use this Effect. Its Difficulty cannot be reduced by any means. If you fail or Botch, you receive one Mind Damage and a new Trauma. The area within 25 feet of you immediately and obviously becomes imminently dangerous. Roll Brawn + Melee at Difficulty 6. Targets inside the radius may attempt an appropriate Reaction at GM’s discretion. Finding a physical barrier to use as cover will cut total Damage taken in half (applies after Reaction roll but before Armor).
If the Outcome is positive, your blast hits everything within 25 feet of you with Damage equal to your Outcome + 4. If you botched the activation roll, you will also take full Damage from the blast, otherwise it will not hurt you.
Damage spreads to targets beyond the edge of the initial radius, decreasing by 2 Damage for every 5 feet traveled. For the next 3 Rounds following the initial blast, this Effect will deal a new blast of damage to any targets remaining within range of you. The damage decays by 2 each Round.
Any flammable Objects within the radius during the blast will catch fire, and any being who takes at least 4 Damage will catch fire. Starting the Round after they caught fire, flaming targets take 2 Damage per Round until the fire is extinguished.
If you successfully hit your target, the value of any Armor they are wearing is reduced by 2. For material armor, this penalty lasts until it is repaired. For intrinsic armor, it lasts until the end of Combat and any relevant wound is healed.
Anyone who witnesses you during this Effect's activation will almost certainly be disturbed to see Souls splitting and tearing in ways unimaginable, your dead love, friends and family, it does not matter, all dead souls burn and incinerate in a fiery flame.
After you finish activating this Effect, you cannot move quicker than a walk (max 15 feet per Round) for one minute and suffer a -1 dice penalty for an hour. Exhaustion’s penalty and duration stacks with multiple activations.
If you do not have a sacrificial Injury when you activate this Effect, take a new Severity-1 Injury.

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 may create firearms.
Roll Perception + Occult to fabricate 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.
The magician dons an unusual piece of clothing and immediately shifts their appearance to be completely different! However, they must reveal their true identity before they can cast any more spells.
Exert your Mind and spend 2 Actions. You must actively and obviously use a piece of clothing you wouldn't normally wear to activate this Effect.
You become disguised in a manner of your choosing. The disguise lasts for two hours, or you may end it early at will.
The new appearance may have a different sex, age, and race to your own, and you may alter height by up to a foot and your weight by 50%. Your disguise cannot directly mimic an existing person. You may change the appearance of your outfit. A disguise cannot affect your Attributes or other stats.
You may roll Charisma + Crafts to attempt to make your disguise Beautiful. If your Outcome is 6 or higher, non-Effect Charisma rolls where your good looks could help are rolled at -2 Difficulty. If you fail or botch, you are ugly instead, and non-Effect Charisma rolls are made at +2 Difficulty.
This Effect ends if you take an Injury or are stunned or incapacitated.
While disguised, you cannot use any Activated or Targeted Powers.
The pyro points a laser pointer towards a target, and a cat-sized-and-shaped fire springs into life, very clearly attracted to the laser. This flame cat can also be shaped from existing fires. While the pointer is active it remains in the shape of a cat, pouncing towards the little red dot. When the laser pointer is not active, the flames return to normal.

Exert your Mind 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 laser pointer to activate this Effect.
You may start or extinguish a fire as large as a fire in a residential fireplace at your target. Extinguishing a fire does not cost Exertion. You may create or extinguish fires the size of a lighter or candle flame without Exerting your Mind. 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 shredded by any Damage dealt, destroying material Armor once it reaches 0.
You may extinguish flames as a Reaction. This does not extend to explosives.
You may spend a Free Action on your initiative move a fire as large as a fire in a residential fireplace that is within 20 feet to another location within 20 feet. You may Exert your Mind to draw a line which a fire up to twice as large as a fire in a residential fireplace cannot cross.
