You think I'm just gonna.. GIVE UP? You must not have heard of me.
Growth factors abound in Mark Collins body, patching wounds even as they occur, and miraculously preventing potential fatal complications (though occasionally causing their own..) Growth hormones have the potential to grow new blood vessels, clot wounds, multiply and repair muscle cells.
If this was all, he would be very hard to kill- But he just isn't a quitter.

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.

Passenger’s Puppetry
In the bones, in the blood.
The bullets rip through Lilith’s body, soaking her clothes with crimson. Shallow breaths, rippling skin. She hits the ground in a heap, and the creature below her skin roils and expands to puppet her arms and legs. Eyes bloodshot and glassy, Lilith is clearly no longer in control of her body. Perhaps she never was.
The would-be corpse lifts its arm, a stream of near-black blood pouring from its wounds. Hundreds of bloody needles fire from its wrist, rending its quarry into little more than a pile of guts.
The source of her power is clear. Her blood. Drain her to fulfill the terms of her family’s death curse.
You gain the following benefits as long as you are wearing this Artifact.
If you would take an Injury that would kill you, you don’t die. Instead, you survive in an Incapacitated state. While incapacitated, you can take one Action per minute, starting one minute after you were incapacitated. This state lasts for the next hour, at which point you fully return to life.
While Incapacitated, your only weakness is fully draining the body of blood, and if you take Damage from it, you will die. Damage from other sources will still be dealt and can cause Battle Scars, but will only kill you if your body is destroyed completely. If your weakness is not immediately obvious, attackers may roll to discover it. After you return, the Injury that would have killed you, as well as any Injuries sustained while Incapacitated, are healed. Battle scars obtained during this time remain.
- Actions taken while incapacitated are taken at a full penalty unless you have a relevant penalty reduction.
It came from the Deep
Mako's eyes turn into their sockets, like a shark after a kill, and he leaks a runny dark red substance similar to blood

Phoenix Protocol: Life Reboot
Each death, only makes the flame burn stronger
Nanites used to save Bu Fang life continues to operate, maintaining his existence, whenever he approaches death, it keeps his form intact. In turn, his body keeps the nanite safe, bonding to him on a molecular level. Yet this also makes his body susceptible to instant change of temperature. If taken from extreme heat like a vat of magma, then dropped into a vat of nitrogen, it shatters the nanites.
Edit: Nothing wrong with this power other than the flavor is a bit bad - I changed it to "Must be Cooked & Eaten" to keep on the nose with concept, but whatever you want I guess.
