While chanting the incantation the Roman Collar releases a dim light and a smoky incense begins to steam off the Father's shoulders. When the rite is complete a set of brilliant white feathers burst forth from his back and form a set of wings. A total wingspan of about 7 feet, but are often furled up behind the Priests back. He grows a few feet, gaining wisdom and strength beyond a regular man.

You transform into Angel for 3 minutes. You have access to all of your Powers while you are Angel, and you can use your equipment. Your Battle Scars, Injuries, and physical Liabilities are carried over between forms. Reverting from your Alternate Form cannot cause your existing Injuries to kill you. Instead, you remain Incapacitated.
While transformed, your Brawn is increased by 1, your Perception is increased by 1, and your Charisma is increased by 1. You do not suffer any Stress while transformed.
The bearer of the Ring of Dreams raises their hand up and open wide as if holding a large spherical object, as gold flecked shadows of deep purple pour like water from their open palm to the ground below. With the firm closing of the bearers hand into a fist the shadow coalesces into tangible form, appearing to each observer - a different shape and appearance, that of their deep-seated fears, or the closest physical manifestation of them.
Be they real or imagined, physical, or metaphysical, the fears of the onlooker rise from the inky mist into a shape recognizable. Each form uniquely tailored to the onlookers subconscious. The golden flecks of dust expand and cover the beings' surface with color and texture to better align with the illusion. In truth, the being is nothing more than a homunculus made of Oneiromantic magic, bound to the ring and the will of it's master. Shapeless in nature, the creature lashes out with tendrils and pseudopods that extend from its mass, which stays whole and moves as one entity, creating leg like appendages and stepping to the stride of the forward leg or legs, as the previous legs are reabsorbed into the mass.
Exert your Mind (unless you win a coin flip) and spend an Action.
Summon a single Nightmare spawn at your location. They will last until they are destroyed. They are controlled by the GM but will follow any commands you give. This Artifact may have at most 2 minions active at a time.
Anyone who witnesses you during this Effect's activation or for its duration will almost certainly be disturbed to see a being composed of their subconcious fears.
Daniel has started to find a way to protect himself when things go bad. He is not much of a fighter so his shielding does the help for him. a blue ball that is encoded in sigil and Druidic runes. Very obvious and bright.
Exert your Mind and spend an Action to activate. You must actively and obviously use Watch to activate this Effect. Roll Intellect + Culture at Difficulty 6.
If you succeed, you create a Barrier around yourself, which absorbs the next Outcome + 2 Damage. Half the damage absorbed is reflected back at the attacker, which they can Defend against as normal. The Damage reduction from the Barrier is applied before Armor, and is treated like Armor by any effects such as Armor Penetration. You may only have 1 active barrier at a time.
You must maintain Concentration while using this Effect. The Barrier will fall if you are interrupted, or if it absorbs the full amount of damage. When a Barrier falls, you cannot use this Effect again for a minimum of 2 Rounds. As long as it does not fall, the barrier regenerates back to full strength at the end of each Round of combat.
After this Effect ends, you cannot move quicker than a walk for one minute and suffer a -1 dice penalty for an hour.
With the clap of Mort's hands, "Chuckles" crawls out of the ground. His paint is smeared with gore, his innards leaking ever so slightly out of his multi-colored waistcoat. He's capable of slight speech, although all you'll get out of him is bad jokes.
Chuckles acts completely separately to Mort and therefore cannot take commands from him unless he makes a Cha+Influence roll (Difficulty 8). Every 30 minutes he is active, Chuckles must attack somebody. He prefers to target civilians over the supernatural, they apparently "taste funny". He cannot be dissuaded from attacking a person, a Cha+Inf roll can be made to try to convince him to switch targets though.
Exert your Mind and spend an Action.
Summon a single Chuckles The Maneater at your location. They will last for two hours, or until they are destroyed. They are controlled by the GM and will not necessarily obey your commands. You may have at most 1 minion active at a time.
The user take's the Flask and drinks as much as they can muster. but with it's staggering 95% alcohol content not many can drink that much
Chinese legend says that Yidi, the god of wine and alcohol, helped the Emperor's daughter to make a special gift for her father. Yidi created a spicy, strong beverage from fermented grapes – wine. At first, the Emperor thought that the drink was much too powerful and strong, so Yidi spent years experimenting until he created something delicious, which is the wine that we know and love today.
Use up this Flask (unless you succeed on 1d10, Difficulty 7) and spend an Action.

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.

The "Reaper" Assault Helmet is the signature piece of the Future Soldier's arsenal. It has a sleek, design and is made of a mysterious matte-metallic alloy. The wearer's face is exposed normally, but when activated, a blue holographic visor flickers to life in front of the eyes. This HUD contains information about the soldier's ammunition and shield status, but more significantly can detect enemy combatants. Anyone nearby who is holding a weapon is painted with a red dot that follows them in real time. This allows the Future Soldier to fire at painted targets in the dark, detect ambushes lurking around corners, and grants an overall tactical advantage.
Expend a point of Battery and spend an Action.
You automatically detect all people wielding weapons within 300 feet of you for the next hour. This includes any who come within range during the duration. You have a sense of how many valid targets are nearby, as well as their distance and direction.
