Neil's eyes fill with black Miasma for a short time, a small stream emerging from his nose and ears, temporarily augmenting his senses to allow him to feel the necromantic energy generated by a corpse, and home in on it.
Exert your Mind and spend an Action.
You automatically detect all corpses at least as big as a mouse within 50 feet of you for the next hour. You have a clear sense of both the distance and direction towards any detected items. You do not learn any details about the detected items.
Even if there are no corpses at least as big as a mouse within 50 feet of you, you become aware of the direction the closest one is in, as well as a rough sense of its distance from you.
Ena is a spectre of The Well- one of many that can be found wandering aimlessly among ruins on the way to Oblivion. She, as well as all the others that were left behind, can desire a variety of things, but most of them are quite abstract. "The desire to want". "The desire to feel". "The desire to experience eating". Even "The desire to feel pain". All sensations, and more, that they are robbed of deep within the Well. For they are pure beings that live in chaos and only once beheld by minds seeking sanity, could they achieve any semblance of form.
Ena is just like them, except she found a way to escape- only to find herself within another prison. Luci, feeling at least moderately shitty about that, found a way to give Ena form that she can project herself onto and experience sensation directly. In return, when it comes time that Luci needs her to help, she's to help.
To give her form, Luci sculpts a copy of herself with enough ink that would comprise a normal human's blood. Ena's natural form changes its appearance to better match her disposition.
Ena is very much an intelligent being, unlike most summons, but her mannerisms are just so toxic and volatile, that getting her to help out with complex calculations is like pulling teeth from a literal child. She, at the very least, provides interesting conversation even though she's pretty unlikable.
She is an average heighted human with pitch black hair in a wolf tail, deceptively soft features, dark brown pupils, black fingernails, and a shadow that's just a wee bit more vivid to especially perceptive individuals.
Exert your Mind and spend one minute. You must use up 5 Liters of Ink in order to activate this Effect. You must make a Trauma roll when you use this Effect. Its Difficulty cannot be reduced by any means.
Summon a single Ena at your location. They will last until they are destroyed. They are controlled by the GM but will follow any commands you give. You may have at most 1 minion active at a time.
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.
You may only use this Effect once per day.
After a brief conversation, Chip's able to become best of friends with anyone-for a while. He can adapt his personal 'persona' and play off of the behaviors and subconscious tells of the target, by the end of the conversation, they'd do anything for each other.
Chip doesn't 'play roles', he lives them, lacking any true sense of self. Most likely, it's DID or something similiar.
Spend one minute to activate. Select a number of Living or Animate targets equal to your Charisma within arm's reach. Make a Trauma roll when you activate this Effect. Roll Charisma + Influence at Difficulty 6. Affected targets can resist by rolling Mind at Difficulty 8.
If you succeed, for the next three hours, affected targets will do things they otherwise wouldn’t have done, inspired by Loyal Friendship. They will not necessarily display their emotions in an obvious way. Your own emotions are also shifted in the same way.
Actions they take will be in keeping with their character and the way they tend to deal with strong emotions. They will be unlikely to change their mind about any actions taken or decisions made until after the Effect ends.
Both attacking someone and being attacked will end the Effect.
This Effect is not obvious, and the only sign you are using an Effect is A Conversation with the target(s), with a sudden serious attitude. Will mention that they're buddies now, or something similiar.. If someone suspects that an Effect was used, they must roll Perception + Alertness, Difficulty 8 to pick up on your Tell.
This Gift's level is capped at 2 Gifts and cannot be increased further.
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.

The Vampire is able to turn one of their victims into a lesser vampire, a pale shadow of a full creature of the night but useful nonetheless.
