From The Earth, It Rises. Locally Grown

1
The power to summon a minion which can fight and act on your behalf.
Used by Bill Boppy, Created by Beezleboppy.
(This Effect is obviously Alien when used. When activating this Effect, it is obvious that you are creating a minion in some way. Minions are obviously Alien to any observer. You must actively and obviously be using up A full corn on the cob, with husk intact.)

Bill places his corn on the cob in the ground, and from that cob the beast emerges. The corn shakes rapidly, as though it is going to hatch, before it starts to grow wildly. The cob expands to immense size, cracking down the middle to reveal a mouth full of razor sharp teeth. The husk stretches and reshapes itself, forming a shambling mound of legs and wings. Roots rise from the ground and tangle amongst the husk, contributing to the beast's body and limbs. The head is definitively formed by the cob, while the body is a constantly shifting and difficult to discern pile of roots and husk. Entirely, the beast is around the size of a horse, it's colours no different from the corn it was grown from. The beast is capable of launching its cob head at targets 50 feet away from it, the head quickly regrows afterwards (though, any damages done to the head remain even after the head regrows). When the beast is destroyed, it rots into the ground, its body reduced to an inedible black mold.

Bill discovered this gift the morning after his stay at The Vermillion Manor. While harvesting his freshly grown corn, he attempted to hold more than what he could carry, and accidentally dropped a singular ear of corn. He thought nothing of it, until the corn began to jitter on the dirt unnaturally. He backed away in fear, and watched as the once innocuous corn sprouted into a true monster. A monster that listened to his commands. A monster that belonged to him.

Exert your Mind and spend an Action. You must use up A full corn on the cob, with husk intact in order to activate this Effect.

The first King of Hell that Mr. Kind bargains with is Paimon. Paimon is known as a powerful entity who holds vast knowledge and abilities. He teaches all arts, philosophy, and sciences, unveiling secret truths and mysteries of the Earth, wind, and water. Paimon can reveal the depths of the mind and answer any inquiry the conjurer desires. Furthermore, he grants good familiars, bestows dignities, and binds individuals to the conjurer's will.

In the Abramelin tradition, Paimon's powers are extensive. They include foreknowledge of past and future events, dispelling doubts, summoning spirits, inducing visions, summoning and dismissing servant spirits, temporarily reanimating the deceased, flying, enduring underwater indefinitely, and the general ability to manifest various objects and people, even armor, as commanded by the magician.

Increase your sacrificial Injury's Severity by 1 and spend one minute. Select a Dead target within arm's reach that has died within the last hour. This Effect cannot be used unless you drained the target's blood while they were still alive.

Your target rises as an Animate being. The raised creature is totally mindless, with no memory of its past life or hint of its old personality. They cannot communicate. They will follow any command you speak.

The creature lasts until it dies again. It is revived at full health. Any Injuries it had in life are not accounted for when determining its penalties or progression towards re-death, though they may affect its ability to perform certain actions at GM's discretion. The raised creature must consume flesh every day or it will die again.

Raised creatures have their Abilities set to the same that they were in life. Their Charisma and Intellect are set to 1, but their Dexterity, Brawn and Perception are the same as they had in life. A raised creature cannot use any Effects.
