Tentacle Extension Feeling, reaching, tasting, exploring..
Setsuke's eye twitches briefly, and her smile widens into a grotesque grin, as a small protrusion, slimy and black as ink extends from her face, either out of the ear, eye, or nostril, deforming slightly to make room. Highly flexible, and free of bones or hard cartilage, it can change shape and stretch up to 30 feet, grabbing items, grappling targets, or smacking them like a punch- though its no stronger than her at this point.
Her body is not fully accustomed to the readjustments needed, and there is the risk that her face will fail to rearrange properly- causing a nasty deformity (or loss of eye, ear, something else on the face) in the process if she rushes.
Exert your Mind and spend an Action to activate. Roll a single D10 as a critical failure check. If you roll a 1, the Effect fails, and you She gets a major battle scar on her face, from where the tentacle extended. Commonly, this is a grotesque deformity, loss of eye, ear, or similiar..
You gain an additional limb that functions as a standard human arm and hand. Lasts one hour.
Each additional limb you posses can take one Quick Action per Round without incurring a -2 dice penalty to your main Action. Any Battle Scars that affect or remove your additional limb will heal in a single week.
Your extra appendage can be used to attack in exactly the same manner as a Rapier.
Your appendage is capable of bending and squishing in normally-impossible ways. It may fit through any gap that is not water-tight and retain its functionality.
Your extra appendage can stretch to reach an additional 30 feet.
Your extra appendage is not connected to your nervous or circulatory systems, and you will not take damage if it is hit by an attack or destroyed.
Anyone who witnesses you during this Effect's activation or for its duration will almost certainly be disturbed to see Bones readjust and her neck thickens as the tentacle extends, revealing her as a monster.
- When narrating disturbing content, be cognizant of your group's tone and accommodating to those who would like to "fast forward" through the description.

Charlatans
“Unsettling are the days in which everyone is an expert.”
― Criss Jami
Nowadays you can't go a day without some phony prophet trying to peddle their wares to you.
Driven by the increased interest in the supernatural, charlatans from palm readers to televangelists are everywhere. And while the vast majority of witches, psychics, magicians, hypnotists, cures, potions, faith healers, and clairvoyants are complete fakes, they do make a living.
As the saying goes, "it's easier for an actor to make it in alternative medicine than Hollywood."
Most people scoff at these clearly-phony supernatural services, yet those same people often buy into at least one scam.
The most dangerous charlatans are the self-styled monster hunters who carry a mall-ninja arsenal and guns with silver bullets. Most have never encountered anything supernatural and do absolutely nothing besides burn some sage and patrol the area for a night or two. Even so, those who are superstitious, fearful, or desperate enough will hire them to solve the problems they simply don't understand. In some cases with disastrous results.
For Contractors, charlatans are red herrings and obstacles. Clumsy fakes that conjure a smokescreen of misinformation and escalate the situations they're in.
