Rise "The dead have no time for rest"
I touch the chest of the dead and focus my gift into it showing a faint green with red and yellow surrounding the dead and then slowly draw my hand up as i stand up and pull the creature onto its feet by doing so.
Exert your Mind and spend an Action to activate. Select a Dead target within arm's reach that has died within the last month.
Your target rises as an Animate being. The raised creature is totally mindless, with no memory of its past life or hint of its old personality. They cannot communicate. They will follow any command you speak.
The creature lasts for one hour or until it dies again. It is revived at full health. Any Injuries it had in life are not accounted for when determining its penalties or progression towards re-death, though they may affect its ability to perform certain actions at GM's discretion.
Raised creatures have all their Abilities set to 0. Their Charisma and Intellect are set to 1, but their Dexterity, Brawn and Perception are the same as they had in life. A raised creature cannot use any Effects.
- You can target yourself if you qualify as a valid target by the other requirements.

OWL - The Occult Wildlife Landing
The Occult Wildlife Landing (OWL) is a nonprofit organization that advocates for the rights of supernatural creatures to live a life unmolested by humanity’s relentless spread and greed.
While OWL has become the de-facto head of the conservationist movement in the United States, many claim it’s not as innocent as it appears. A number of small, seemingly-disconnected terrorist cells wear the OWL insignia with pride. These groups– which tend to contain a disproportionate number of supernatural creatures and beings– commit high-profile acts of public violence with the intent of furthering OWL’s core objectives. In the past, they’ve blown up oil pipelines, stopped development projects, and even infected congregations of people with mutagenic viruses.
OWL denies any involvement with these so-called “OWL-inspired terrorist organizations” (or OITOs for short). However, many people conflate the two and consider OWL itself to be a terrorist organization.
One thing is for certain: when OWL sends a blast to its followers urging protest, they’re taken seriously.

Deathly Raise
Blood is often referred to as the liquid of Life. Well, in this case, it is... Sort of.
Utilizing the blood of a currently living creature, you may resurrect a corpse back to life, filling it with a horrid mockery of what it once was. By drawing a pentagram in blood beneath the corpse and either humming or verbally expressing an unholy prayer, the corpse begins to rise once again under your control...

Parasitoid Budding
I hope you realize what a gift this is, Letting you be one of us
Very small root-like tendrils burrow into the target, not all that different from the original Chinhana, though fractured off a whole rather than from the original seed.
Once inside the target, they burrow through the flesh until they reach the brain where they begin growing and replacing it.

Raise Dead Gifts
Zombies!
I've never loved the slow, shambley ones.
The Necromancer stands over a corpse and makes a series of grandiose lifting gestures. The corpse rises from the ground as though suspended by invisible strings, barks a pained groan, and lands on its feet, now a full-fledged member of the living dead.
Take a Severity-1 Injury and spend an Action. You must use up a corpse in order to activate this Effect.
Summon a single zombie 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.
- Attacking: Minions can make melee range attacks with 5 dice to attack and +1 Damage.
- Body: Minions have 6 Body.
- Movement: Minions can move 20 feet per Round as Free Movement, and double that when performing an all-out Sprint.
- Intelligence: Minions have dog-level intelligence, and cannot communicate back to you. They cannot actively use Equipment.
- Actions: Minions cannot dodge or Defend. Any Perception checks they make are rolled with 3 dice.
The Scepter of Ang-Kapal
It is a small price to pay.
The Scepter of Ang-Kapal is a gruesome device fashioned to look like a skeletal arm clutching a glass eye. When used, blood from the person holding is drawn into the eye where it swirls with dark energy. The eye turns to a nearby corpse and shudders, reviving the creature. The creature does not retain any of its memories or personality, but it is absolutely loyal to whoever is holding the scepter.
The Scepter of Ang Kepal has the unfortunate side effect of driving its owner mad.
Take a Severity-1 Injury and spend one minute. Select a Dead target within arm's reach with at least half its skeletal structure remaining. You must make a Trauma roll when you use this Effect. Its Difficulty cannot be reduced by any means.
