“This new power is wild. It feels like all my rage and determination have come to life. When my shoulders start growing muscle and flesh, and steam hisses out, it's like my inner fire is bursting out. These huge, disproportionate arms and fists aren’t just about strength, they’re a statement.
It’s like the universe recognized my fight against the system and decided to give me a boost.”

Exert your Mind and spend an Action.

"Like getting blood from a stone" - Figure of speech, when it is extremely difficult because of the mood of the person you are dealing with.
Keskikesän kuikka lenteli suon
yllä ja laskeutui suuren puun
juurelle. Vesilintu muni kolme
munaa. Ensimmäinen munista vierähti
pesästä ja halkesi. Halkeamasta vuosi
verta seitsemän päivää ja seitsemän
yötä. Verestä muodostui elämä ja kuolema

Take a Severity-1 Injury and spend 1 minute. Select a Living or Animate target within arm's reach. Choose a specific Injury on your target that has not yet been treated with this Effect and roll Brawn + Brawl 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.

  • Unstabilized wounds do not degenerate during treatment.
  • 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.

Zeta's limiters are dropped and extra radiators protrude from Zeta's back. The excessive heat melts the flesh and burns the cloths on Zeta's body revealing a mechanical nightmare that was hiding underneath.

Zeta's metal skeletal structure elongates to provide more leverage. The hands are revealed to be serrated claws. Zeta's now revealed chrome skull splits in half and the melted flesh drips away to reveal more mechanical eyes that over her entire head. Tooth caps fall away to reveal rows of sharp, pointy teeth.

Steam shoots out from under Zeta's revealed ribcage and bellows around her feet. Zeta's thigh bones split in two as they're revealed to be double and reverse jointed to provide greater maneuverability.

Zeta only has one thing left to say before the voice box is shutdown as it's power is diverted to combat prowess.

A single path lies Infront of you, no left or right turns, the only choice is forward. And there in front and above you, just high enough to jump up and punch, is a box labeled with a glowing question mark. You hit it, and box ceases to glow, but out from the top, a mushroom falls. As you approach it, remembering vaguely some sort of cautionary song or rhyme or mnemonic device the boyscouts used to teach, it looks almost inviting. Then suddenly it rotates, revealing grotesque eyes, a slobbering mouth, and upsetting knobby feet.

Your eyes pop open, exacaping you from this dream.

You jolt up in a cold sweat, and there on the floor at the foot of your bed is a perfect-looking mushroom gliding peacefully and bouncing softly from wall to wall. "Super Mushroom," you whisper instinctively to yourself, and you feel the power inside of it. "Ya-hooo"

Use up this Amanita muscaria mushroom and spend a Quick Action.
