Exert your Mind and spend an Action. Select a single Sapient target or a Location within 20 feet. If you select a Location, all Sapient targets within 20 feet within 20 feet of it, besides yourself, are affected. Affected targets may resist by rolling Mind at Difficulty 8. If they are incapacitated or unconscious, they fail automatically.
If they fail, affected targets will take 1 point of Mind damage and gain a new Trauma selected by the GM. This Trauma may be removed by Effects or mundane therapy, as normal. Targets that receive a new Trauma are aware that you are interacting with them but they do not view it as an attack or view the resulting Trauma as malicious. If their Trauma is treated, they will be able to see the reality of the situation.

should they fall to gift, they are made to come face to face with their creator, whether that be a god, their parents, or anything in between, and they are made to apologize and beg forgiveness from them for wasting the effort they put into their creation.
should they have died, they will still go to whatever afterlife they were bound towards, but they will meet their creator nonetheless.
(each point of mind damage is 5 deaths experienced, and the halo ref is extended)
