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.

Regression Therapy
Let’s go back to where it broke.
Dr. [Name] doesn’t heal wounds so much as excavate them—digging through memory and nerve, peeling back scar tissue like pages in a patient file. It's not kindness. It's clarity. Pain makes the truth plain.
As the Doctor rests a hand on the target and locks eyes, her pupils dilate into spirals—surgical black, endlessly deep.
“Look at me,” she says, voice steady. “Start at sixty. Count backward.”
The world around the patient starts to blur and dim. Their body trembles as it snaps backward—visibly reverting in real time to the exact state it was in during their most recent trauma. The injury reopens for a brief moment, pain flooding their senses—until the damage reverses entirely, taking the scar with it.
All the while, the Doctor never blinks.
The Doctor does not believe in clean healing. To her, every scar is a lie the body tells to pretend it survived gracefully. Her therapy unravels that fiction. The patient is dragged to the moment it all went wrong—forced to relive it in perfect clarity, while their body regresses to that exact point in time.
It’s not anesthesia. It’s exposure.
Some wake up sobbing. Others don’t remember the count ever starting.
She says it’s progress.

Mending
"Trust me, it might be odd but it'll work."
His saliva seems to be a healing medicine that is capable of mending wounds, restoring body parts, and even correcting broken or missing limbs. He is capable of applying it with a simple lick, swiping his finger on his tongue and applying it, or even a bite or kiss.
-----------------
In Hida, in the Niu River basin, there are legends of three Kamaitachi known as "Wind Gods". The first god would knock down the person, the next god would cut them with a blade, and the third god would put some medicine on it, which is why there is no bleeding or pain. Channeling the powers of the last god he would take a moment to think about less violent acts before applying them in one of a few ways: Via a swab, a lick, a gentle bite, or a kiss.
Much to his chagrin, he holds it for the allotted amount of time or continues to apply it in that time. Eventually, this causes a shivering breeze to run up the target's body and before long, they will feel their disfigurements, scars, or lasting damage erase themselves from their body. Reverting them to their original state.

Stake Flame Cauterization
“We’ll help each other, to get over our own afflictions…”
Grace conjures her Stake Flames in her small palms and presses them slowly to to the scar. They cleanse as rubbing alcohol would; burning, hissing, but sterilizing. If Grace fails to keep herself calm over the bizarre nature of using her Stake Flames to heal (a confusion that "reopens the wounds"), she comes out of treatment a little worse for wear, and the flames are more painful and a bit less controlled.
Columbus, Ohio: Doctor Murphy and Grace work together to remove the S.I.N. chip from it’s place, wrapped around Guido’s brain stem. Fatal exsanguination and paralysis are major risks, and between Grace’s assistance, all she can think about is how she’ll fix it… she is tired, and worried beyond consolation, and she keeps thinking of the fact that she made a promise.
The surgery was successful, but the stress unlocked something new, and Grace was able to use it later on to fix a scar of her own. The fear of the flames has stopped bothering them in short bursts, but a long minute spent deep in the memory can still be too much for them sometimes.
Exert your Mind and spend a minute. Select a Living target within arm's reach. Make a Trauma roll when you activate this Effect. Select a Battle Scar on your target to treat.
The treated Battle Scar will heal over the course of the next week.
- You can target yourself if you qualify as a valid target by the other requirements.

Egg of Zygotic Stem Cells
The mutant now occasionally lays large, orange-speckled eggs. These Eggs do not hatch nor spoil. If cracked and applied to a chronic injury such as a missing limb, the scar heals completely within the hour. However, any area healed by the egg will forever carry an inhuman appearance as testament to the bizarre method of treatment.
Spend a minute and use up this unusually large egg (unless you succeed on 1d10, Difficulty 7). Select a Living target within arm's reach. Select a Battle Scar on your target to treat.
The treated Battle Scar heals as you finish activating this Effect. If used on a Battle Scar caused by an Unstabilized Injury, that Injury is Stabilized.
Healing a Battle Scar in this way leaves behind an inhuman attribute such as fur, scales, or feathers on the target which cannot be healed.
- This consumable is destroyed when used and cannot be used again.
- You can target yourself if you qualify as a valid target by the other requirements.
- Your target must be within line of sight, or within range of another sense if more fitting for the Gift's flavor.
Transplant
If it's broken, replace it!
The doctor is a master at surgical transplantation. As long as they have a donor part, they can replace any permanent, lingering battle scars on their patient. Of course, the transplanted part doesn't always match, and the patient must be careful to follow the doctor's aftercare orders, or the replacement will be rejected.
Exert your Mind and spend a minute. Select a Living target within arm's reach. You must use up a donor body part matching the injured area in order to activate this Effect. Select a Battle Scar on your target to treat.
The treated Battle Scar heals as you finish activating this Effect. If used on a Battle Scar caused by an Unstabilized Injury, that Injury is Stabilized.
You may specify a specific condition that the patient must adhere to. If they break this condition, the treatment is immediately reversed. Record this regimen as a Condition. Lasts until the end of their next Contract or 1 month for non-Contractors.
Healing a Battle Scar in this way leaves behind a mismatched replacement on the target which cannot be healed.
- You can target yourself if you qualify as a valid target by the other requirements.
- Your target must be within line of sight, or within range of another sense if more fitting for the Gift's flavor.
