Grace's olfactory senses have evolved tremendously due to her bestial affliction. Similar to a shark, she can distinguish things based on scent alone and see in the dark without any lighting.
You gain the following benefits at all times.
Your senses are enhanced in the following way.
Any senses which have been heightened cannot be overloaded. Battle Scars you receive cannot affect these senses.
Possession of this Power grants the following Battle Scar: Atlantean Affliction: You require liquid like a creature of the sea. You must intake at least five times the typical amount of liquids a person would normally consume per day (around five gallons). Additionally, Exposure rolls made against water deprivation or excessively hot or arid environments are made at +2 Difficulty and Gilled Stomach: The flesh of your stomach is lined and exposed like a shark's gills. Called shots against your stomach do +2 damage. If an attack hits you which could conceivably hit your stomach, roll 1d10 at Difficulty 6. If you fail, the attack hits your soft spot and does +2 damage.
Bev mimics breathing for the fluidity of human motion, the natural-inefficiency that marks humanity. If closely observed though, it can become clear that she is not. When she feeds on electricity, there is clearly some manner of plug or cable ported into her neck.
Eating. Sleeping. Breathing. Functions pivotal to life. Inefficient requirements that limit the greater potential of mankind. Everything must be fueled, though -- Bev has just chosen to go about it more 'efficiently'. Straight from the tap.
You gain the following benefits at all times.
You no longer require any sleep or air in order to survive.
Instead of food and water, you must consume electricity by way of a home electrical outlet (or equivalent) for one hour daily for sustenance. For every day you fail to consume it, you lose a point of Brawn. If your Brawn falls to 0 in this way, you die. Your Brawn is fully restored to normal as soon as you fulfill your dietary needs.
The glow of Luz's pupils becomes, for a moment, a blaze that lands on the target like a watchman's searchlight. It burns the target's mind like the sun, a light without ruth, without pity, without compassion. They see a brief glimpse of the Glory and the House with no walls, only doors- but understanding? Comprehension? Entry? Is denied to them. They will scrabble at the edges of the Bounds evermore, aware of their mortal and lowly form and knowing that anything more will forever be out of reach. What effects this may have are as unknowable as the Mansus itself.
Mercy is found only in shadow, and Luz is a light of his own.
Exert your Mind and spend an Action. Select a Human target within 20 feet. Roll Intellect + Occult Difficulty 6. Affected targets may resist by rolling Mind at Difficulty 7. If they are incapacitated or unconscious, they fail automatically.
If your Contested Outcome is positive, your target takes 1 point of Mind Damage and gains a new Trauma of your choice. The Trauma should be general and not specifically mention you. You should not have to be involved to trigger the Trauma.
This trauma cannot be removed by spending Experience and undergoing mundane therapy. Affected targets are aware that they are being attacked and can generally tell who did it.
Nia has a vaguely humanoid body structure with a round, spherical head and circular, glowing yellow eyes. She also has two long, twisted antennae sprouting out of the top of her head. Each of her hands has three clawed fingers, and her feet are large, lacking any discernible digits. With the exception of her eyes, her body is completely black. Floating slightly above her head is a small golden crown.
Queen is the copied consciousness of a player living inside of Nia's mind granting her consciousness. (Nia dislikes this greatly)

No single organ in your body is critical for life. Called Shots do no additional Damage to you. You may perceive the world through separated body parts, take Actions with them, and reattach them by spending an Action and Exerting your Mind.
Your Injuries no longer degrade with time. You do not age naturally, and supernatural attempts to age you fail.
You can squeeze through any cracks and passageways a cat would be able to.
You may make a +2 Weapon Damage Shadow Claws attack without additional equipment.
Possession of this Power grants the following Trauma at all times: Split Mind: If ever Nia would like to take an action that would violate one of Queen's limits (see extended description), they must roll self control. Failing this roll doesn't proc the mind damage/traumas of normal limits and Split Mind: Second stack.
You cannot be mistaken for a normal human. You cannot always use standard human clothes, equipment, vehicles, and facilities, and when you can, you suffer an increased Difficulty.
WE5’s built in scanners are able to detect a myriad of beings, namely, humans and robots.

The vampire sucks a copious amount of blood from a human and replenishes their own cursed flesh.
Exert your Mind and spend 1 minute. This Effect cannot be used unless you drink blood directly from a human until it injures them. Choose a specific Injury on yourself that has not yet been treated with this Effect and roll Brawn + Occult 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.
If your Outcome is greater than the Severity of the Injury you were attempting to treat, you may apply any excess Outcome to other Injuries on yourself.
Anyone who witnesses you during this Effect's activation or for its duration will almost certainly be disturbed to see you drink blood directly from the vein.
Unimportant characters just can't seem to hit our hero with their attacks. Injuries that are sustained from underlings are conveniently non-severe.
You gain the following benefits as long as the attacker isn't important enough to have a name.
You have 4 Armor, which reduces incoming Damage. Armor from multiple sources does not stack. This Armor cannot be circumvented with Called Shots.
No terrestrial animal dares defy the will of the beastmaster. The beastmaster exerts their dominance over an animal by locking eyes and giving a primal cry. The creature immediately becomes docile and eager to please.
Exert your Mind and spend an Action. Select a Non-Alien Creature within 20 feet. This Effect cannot be used unless the target is a terrestrial animal.
For the next day, you may issue specific commands to your target which they will be compelled to follow.
Your commands can be complex and multi-layered, though they must still be specific. You cannot make them obviously endanger themselves or violate their instinct for self-preservation. The effects of the command will fade after a day has passed.
The musician assumes a powerful stance and strums a mighty power chord on their guitar. A blast of sound waves radiate outwards, destroying all who dare face the power chord directly.
Exert your Mind and spend an Action. You must actively and obviously use your instrument to activate this Effect. The area within 25 feet of you immediately and obviously becomes imminently dangerous. Roll Charisma + Performance at Difficulty 6. Targets inside the radius may attempt an appropriate Reaction at GM’s discretion. Finding a physical barrier to use as cover will cut total Damage taken in half (applies after Reaction roll but before Armor).
If the Outcome is positive, your blast hits everything within 25 feet of you with Damage equal to your Outcome + 4. If you botched the activation roll, you will also take full Damage from the blast, otherwise it will not hurt you.
You may only use this Effect once per day.
The magician dons an unusual piece of clothing and immediately shifts their appearance to be completely different! However, they must reveal their true identity before they can cast any more spells.
Exert your Mind and spend 2 Actions. You must actively and obviously use a piece of clothing you wouldn't normally wear to activate this Effect.
You become disguised in a manner of your choosing. The disguise lasts for two hours, or you may end it early at will.

You may roll Charisma + Crafts to attempt to make your disguise Beautiful. If your Outcome is 6 or higher, non-Effect Charisma rolls where your good looks could help are rolled at -2 Difficulty. If you fail or botch, you are ugly instead, and non-Effect Charisma rolls are made at +2 Difficulty.
This Effect ends if you take an Injury or are stunned or incapacitated.
While disguised, you cannot use any Activated or Targeted Powers.
