Botches subtract additional Attributes. In the event that they are aged more than 10 years, they must make one such roll for each decade. Reducing any Attribute to 0 causes death (A Perception of 0 causes an indefinite coma).

• Methusela: Each time you age a human, you stop aging for a period of time equal to one tenth what you aged them.

Target a corpse that has died within the last month, spend an Action and Exert your Mind to raise the dead. The resulting creature is a husk of their former selves, a mindless, brain-hungry zombie. It has no memory of its past life, and no hint of its personality remains.

The creature lasts for one hour or until re-killed. 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 revived creature's Abilities are all set to 0, and its Charisma, Wits, and Intelligence, are all set to 1. Its Brawn, Dexterity, and Perception are the same as it had in life. A revived creature cannot use any Powers.

• Rigor Mortis no More: The revived creature has the same rating in Dexterity that it had in life and may move normally.

• Feral Dead: The raised creature has no obligation to follow your commands and is often aggressive.

There is no cost to use The Coffin. Its storage area is 5x times the normal space that container would have (roughly 100 liters). Objects stored inside weigh their normal weight divided by 5x. Only objects commonly found in coffins can be stored.

Living (or undead) creatures can be stored in your container if appropriate, but they will have access to the items inside and may attempt to break free, destroying the container forever.

This is a unique object that can be lost or stolen.

• Conditional: Only usable when a certain condition is met. This condition must be severe enough that the Power is unusable the majority of the time.
  • Condition: May only store things commonly buried in coffins.

Exert your Mind, spend an Action issuing your command to an undead creature, and roll Charisma + Occult. If you succeed, the effect lasts for Outcome in rounds. The target may resist by rolling their Mind. The complexity of your command is capped at Simple commands, mostly single word (sit, come here, run) and can’t be obviously self-endangering, destructive, or in violation of the target's morality.

Undead creatures often have fragile, easily-influenced minds, so this Power may be unresistable (or resisted by the creature's controller) at the GM's discretion. Also, the definition of what is "self-endangering" for an undead creature may be flexible at GM's discretion.

• For British Eyes Only: Your command can be understood only by you and your intended target.

• Conditional: Only usable when a certain condition is met. This condition must be severe enough that the Power is unusable the majority of the time.
  • Condition: Creature must be undead

Exert your Mind and spend a round transforming into your corpse. The degree of rot and bodily damage is up to you, but the corpse must always be easily recognizable as your own. While transformed, you cannot take any actions, but you can perceive the world as normal. You remain that way for 3 minutes.

If you are damaged while transformed, the damage is realized when the effect ends. If you are damaged before you transform, your corpse will have the same injuries.

• Gargoyle: You are capable of perceiving the world around like normal while you are transformed.

• Obvious Disguise: Your transformed state looks like you. A statue, for example.

The visor activates automatically at the start of combat. The HUD lasts 1 minute, during which time all creatures that are holding a weapon within 50 feet are detected and painted with a red dot. The visor tracks their movement and location, and that of any new targets, as long as they remain in 50 feet.

This is a unique item that can be lost or stolen.

• GPS: Provides you with both distance and direction toward the detected beings. This information is accurate enough to use for aiming at a +1 Difficulty.

It has normal rifle stats, on top of which it deals an extra [[additional damage]] damage, and the target's Armor is Reduced to 1/2, rounded up.

Spend an Action and make a Difficulty 5 Dexterity + Athletics roll to toss a foam grenade within 20 feet. The grenade immediately bursts, splashing everyone within a ten-foot radius of your target area. On your initiative in the next Round of combat (about three seconds later), the expanding foam hardens. Any affected individual moves at one quarter of their normal speed.

You start each Game with three foam grenades. You may obtain one per day, but there can never be more than three in existence.

Targets may attempt to break free by making an attack against the foam. Attacks against the binding are made at +1 Difficulty. Breaking the binding requires an amount of damage equal to the successes on your initial roll. Damage from multiple attacks is cumulative and stacks linearly. Prior to hardening, any attempt to remove the foam from their body counts as a successful attack with damage equal to their successes on their roll.

If you find a track made within 24 hours, you may Exert your Mind, spend 1 Minute focusing on your quarry. At the end of the cast time, roll Perception + Survival. The trail the target made within the last 24 hours is illuminated, making it easy to follow. An outcome of 1 is sufficient for tracking the target in their current means of transit, and an Outcome of 4 or higher allows you to track them through vehicle changes or when using means of transit where no tracks are left (e.g. levitation). You are not made aware of where the target is currently; you must follow the trail to find them.

Your target will likely notice the tracks they've just made being illuminated. However, after activating this Power, no new tracks are illuminated.

The effect lasts until you give up the hunt.

Upon observing an active illusion, a person can make a Mind roll, difficulty 7. If their Outcome is greater than the Outcome on your initial roll, they realize that they are viewing an illusion, though it will still be visible to them for the duration. If they investigate the illusion and notice it is non-corporeal or otherwise behaves in a bizarre manner, they conclude it is an illusion without a roll.

Even a partially successful treatment removes the limb from the Injury down, causing a Battle Scar. Cannot be used on Injuries that are not on aputatable body parts (such as the head). You must have some blade or saw capable of performing the amputation to use Amputate.

This Power is only effective on humanoid creatures, and you cannot target yourself.

You cannot target the same Injury more than once.

• Conditional: Only usable when a certain condition is met. This condition must be severe enough that the Power is unusable the majority of the time.

The alteration may be aesthetic, debilitating, or even provide some functional benefit. Dice bonuses from beneficial augments are limited to +1 die for relevant actions, or to simple beneficial traits possessed by mundane animals, such as gills for water breathing

Your alteration either counts as a new Battle Scar or changes the nature of an existing Battle Scar.

• Happy Accidents: Instead of causing a new Battle Scar, you may alter an existing Battle Scar of the target.

Fires the size of a lighter or candle flame can be created or extinguished without Exerting your Mind or potentially triggering a critical failure.
