Energy Sensors You turn my screen #0000ff.
Drawing external energy from a device and combining it with their own reserves, Rei is able to over-charge their senses to detect all sorts of energy-- allowing them to see in the dark and scan heat signatures, electric fields, and even neurological activity, functioning similarly to a radar.
Exert your Mind and spend an Action. You must use up a phone's worth of energy in order to activate this Effect.
Your senses are enhanced in the following way. Lasts for three hours.
- Sight: You can see perfectly in dark and even pitch-black environments. You suffer no dice penalty due to darkness.
- Electroreception: You may detect electromagnetic fields, electric currents, and even neurological activity in a 50 foot radius from yourself at all times. When detecting neurological activity, you learn nothing but the creature's rough size.
- Thermal: You are able to "see" heat signatures within your line of sight.
Any senses which have been heightened cannot be overloaded. Battle Scars you receive cannot affect these senses.
- Examples of overloading a sense include: an explosion causing temporary deafness, a bright light causing blindness, a sedative causing numbness, etc.
- When you are within 50 feet of range, your electroreception sense is sufficient for aiming.
- Your thermal vision allows you to judge temperatures of surfaces fairly accurately as long as they are within livable temperatures.

The Sons of Salem
We swear to secure our people against the wickedness and evil of the invisible world.
We swear to aid the afflicted.
We swear to stay ever vigilant and seek out the abominable witchcrafts committed in this country.
We humbly pray to be blessed by God to hold all those who consort with the Devil accountable. Amen
—Opening and closing prayer for Sons of Salem meetings.
The Sons of Salem is a loosely-organized conservative populist movement in the United States that preaches violent opposition to anything they perceive as witchcraft, demonic, or monstrous.
Blowhard podcaster Ted Gundy and former general of the mercenary group “Hognose,” Roland Rush, founded the movement in 2010 after a series of violent werewolf attacks and unexplained, supernatural murders in Tennessee. Memberships grew quickly, stoked by Ted’s fiery doomsday rhetoric on his podcast "Truth Seekers" and the aspiration of the masculine power embodied by Roland.
Although they speak of duty, honor, and maintaining the “natural order” of things, the Sons of Salem are driven by fear. They collect guns and appear at protests en-masse as a way of easing the all-consuming terror of their powerlessness. At the same time, they have conditioned themselves to respond to fear with “strength” (read: violence).

Sockeye Sunflowers
You know I see the way, see the way you look at me!
A thick green stem emerges from Terra Incognita, topped with a large bulb. In a matter of moments, the bulb blooms into a large, vibrant sunflower. The petals are yellow, streaked with smeared red, and the florets in the middle are swirled into the shape of an eye. The sunflower constantly and visibly turns to face the warmest thing in front of it.
Marcielle’s third attempt at cultivating the perfect crop. An unequivocal failure.
