Charlatans
“Unsettling are the days in which everyone is an expert.”
― Criss Jami
Nowadays you can't go a day without some phony prophet trying to peddle their wares to you.
Driven by the increased interest in the supernatural, charlatans from palm readers to televangelists are everywhere. And while the vast majority of witches, psychics, magicians, hypnotists, cures, potions, faith healers, and clairvoyants are complete fakes, they do make a living.
As the saying goes, "it's easier for an actor to make it in alternative medicine than Hollywood."
Most people scoff at these clearly-phony supernatural services, yet those same people often buy into at least one scam.
The most dangerous charlatans are the self-styled monster hunters who carry a mall-ninja arsenal and guns with silver bullets. Most have never encountered anything supernatural and do absolutely nothing besides burn some sage and patrol the area for a night or two. Even so, those who are superstitious, fearful, or desperate enough will hire them to solve the problems they simply don't understand. In some cases with disastrous results.
For Contractors, charlatans are red herrings and obstacles. Clumsy fakes that conjure a smokescreen of misinformation and escalate the situations they're in.

Infiltrated Body
More than you bargined for
The improvements to Russ's body have a few unforeseen consequences the wires that previously were there to intercept signals have begun to spread and wrap around the flesh and bone of Russ, while it is not completely dangerous as it does lend greater power and precision to his strikes than should be possible. The Spinal attachment has become much closer linked to Russ and while it would be harder to remove through force, should one use enough force the results could be catastrophic to his body.

(Bite of the Megalodon)
"was that the bite of 87?"
Feeling like his bite wasn't strong enough before to deal with a supernatural grandma, and nearly dying, Mako pushed his teeth to the limit, sharpening them enough that they now glimmer with a rainbow sheen, mimicking the hardened nature of naturally occurring shells and working more on maneuvering with his giant teeth, allowing him to do hit and runs with his teeth while mangling any armor that will keep him from the next meal.

Knighted
"Sir Seymore Alonso, First of His name, Saviour of Templeton, Ward of the Meek, The Merciful, Slayer of the Danish Menace, Champion of the Coitian Wizard, Harpy's Bane, Rescuer of Queens, The Undelayed, and Detainer of Demons."
Sir Seymore Alonso carries himself as a proud knight and refuses to accept otherwise. Although he comes across as quite mad, his skill at arms with medieval weaponry is very real. He strikes with uncanny precision, brutal power, and preternatural control. His attacks morph seamlessly between stances as a thrust turns into an overhead slash, or a horizontal swing turns into a blow with a the cross-guard or haft. Even the timing of offensive maneuvers is frustratingly uncanny, as the momentum accelerates or slows without altering the intended force behind them.
First of his name, valiant saviour of Templetown, slayer of the Danish menace.
