Cosmic Blessing Stellar.

1
The power to augment others' bodies.
Used by Serq Kitsursagi, Created by VelcroGnome.
(While you are augmenting your target, it is obvious you are treating them. The augmentations you provide are not outwardly visible nor obvious. This Effect is obviously Alien when used.)

"...Come close, my brethren! Bask in the rainbow glow of the cosmos! Feel its energy radiate from your very mind, and feel its influence! Its power! That power which only *I* can bestow! Step forward, and be born anew! Stand with me, and bear the weight of the universe!..."

[Brain Hacks]: The boon provided has no physical marring and only weighs heavily on the afflicted's mind, not being actively harmful and merely taking up space. Its presence can always be felt, but is only a threat if the bearer already has too much on their mind.
[Critical Failure]: Serq is clumsily molding the power of the universe into the shape they see fit, fully aware of the consequences it might bring. Their link to The Mother protects them somewhat, but they are still susceptible to the psionic backlash created by pulling the wrong dimensional thread.

Cosmic Blessing: Specialized
You are enhanced by the power of the cosmos, receiving +2 dice to [_____].

Cosmic Blessing: Environmental Adaptation
You are enhanced by the power of the cosmos, suffering no harm from heat, cold, pressure, or lack of oxygen while in [_____] - provided that challenge normally exists in that environment.

Cosmic Blessing: Implanted Tool
You are enhanced by the power of the cosmos, being able to summon a fully-functional [_____] into your hand at will. The [_____] disappears if you stop holding it or someone else attempts to use it.

Cosmic Blessing: Armor
You are enhanced by the power of the cosmos, gaining 2 Armor at all times.

Cosmic Blessing: Pouch
You are enhanced by the power of the cosmos, being granted a small dimensional portal somewhere inside your body that can hold no more than a briefcase (15 liters). Items stored in this space can still be detected by any means that would find them were they held in a physical pocket.

Cosmic Blessing: Zippy
You are enhanced by the power of the cosmos, gaining +10 feet of Free Movement.

Cosmic Blessing: Maws and Claws
You are enhanced by the power of the cosmos, dealing +2 Weapon damage with unarmed attacks instead of -1.

Exert your Mind and spend 30 minutes. Select a Living target within arm's reach. Roll a single D10 as a critical failure check. If you roll a 1, the Effect fails, and you immediately receive 4 points of mind damage that cannot be prevented, reduced, or recovered via any means other than restful sleep. The target can easily Resist.

You may add one augmentation to your target. Each augmentation counts as a Trauma and can have exactly one of the following Effects:

  • Specialized: You receive +2 dice to a particular non-combat, non-Effect Action.
  • Environmental Adaptation: You do not suffer harm from heat, cold, pressure, or lack of oxygen in a particular environment, provided that challenge normally exists in that environment.
  • Implanted Tool: You have access to the functionality of some common Device at all times. The selected Device can be no larger than a motorcycle helmet.
  • Armor: You have 2 Armor at all times. As always, Armor from multiple sources does not stack.
  • Pouch: Part of your body functions as a hidden pocket. It can hold no more than a briefcase (15 liters).
  • Zippy: Your Free Movement is increased by 10 feet.
  • Maws and Claws: Your unarmed attacks do +2 Weapon Damage instead of -1.

The augmentations you provide are not outwardly visible nor obvious.

  • Remember: A Contractor’s Body rating is reduced by 1 for each Battle Scar after their fourth.
  • You may not augment targets with pouches or implanted devices that are larger than they are.
  • Targets without Body ratings may have a maximum of 4 augmentations.
  • Example environments for adaptation: space, all saltwater, all fresh water, all water under 50 feet deep, all water deeper than 50 feet, the jungle, radioactive areas, a specific alien world, etc.
  • You can target yourself if you qualify as a valid target by the other requirements.
  • Your target must be within line of sight, or within range of another sense if more fitting for the Gift's flavor.

- {Chitari is talking} (Chitari is thinking) /Sara is thinking/ :Narrator is narrating: -

: Sara sat in her Goddess's mindscape, anxiously thinking through what actions she could take next, how she could get a grip on herself, a way to keep on going....... :

{....You've been like that for 3 hours now, Viper}

"I know, it's just....... I have no home, no one to go to within 10.... even 100 miles..... and then I have to watch my back for shapeshifting aliens, keep low so that the police don't lock me up, and complete contracts without..... the forest thing happening again...and- "

: Sara ranted to Chitari about any problem she could think of, venting out enough issues and trauma to keep a therapist busy for years on end :

(She really has gone through a lot, especially with the eye demon...... one of my best followers, and she's breaking down from all this......change...)

: at the thought of the word, Chitari remembered her previous follower, worshipping her and her ideals of cleverness, quick thinking, and the ability to adapt to change.
she gave her most loyal followers the name of Prophet and blessed them with a sliver of her essence. :

{Sara, do you think things are changing too quickly for you to keep up?}

"YES, I.... the moment things seem to have calmed down, some supernatural phenomenon or Contractor does something or vanishes into the Aether, missing for weeks or months, and trying to keep a home for even 4 months isn't possible, I've had to do so much in order to keep myself fed, healthy, and SAFE, and it seems to only get wo-"

{Do you want to be the one changing things instead?}

/Sara's downward spiral of a rant was paused by her Goddess's out of nowhere question. being able to make a change for once sounded amazing, but...../
"is that even possible? No Offense Chitari, but even with your help, It- I...... what can fix me"

{I can't fix you, but I can help you adapt}

Spend an hour to activate. Select a Living target within arm's reach. The target can easily Resist.
