After attaching the frame to their torso, the user must activate and sync the arm's internal operative systems with the neurological activity responsible for their own limbs-- requiring extensive input from the mind, voice, and body. The golden circuitry running across the chassis ripple with energy during this process. While in use, its origami folds are able to stretch, bend, and morph to fit the user's desired movements.
The calibration sequence to connect the arm requires the user to move around their joints (shoulders, elbows, and wrists) and read aloud a pangram (ex: "The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog").
The systems powering and controlling the arm are an intricate mix of various power sources all synchronizing together. Specifically, they are the culmination of its creator taking influence from his peers, a spatial mage and technomancer, to achieve the final result of a fully functional additional limb.
These include arm's handcrafted, moving folds (of which three are responsible for the core joint movement of a shoulder/elbow/wrist), the golden circuits that connect to the user's mind (branching into a sprawling, fractal pattern across the arm and acting as a signal booster/receiver for all the energy), and the internal technological programming (which are carefully integrated to run with the rest of the arm's systems).
The use of a pangram enables the internal systems to more easily find specific parts of the brain to connect to and the movement of the joints calibrate the arm's motions as well.
The arm's three primary folds, alongside the three sources of power (magic, technology, and clockwork-level crafting), serve as a double entendre inspiring the gift's final name.

Years of dodging trouble and getting out of sketchy situations left their mark - making Evans more cold, calculating, but most of all slippery.
As of his last job however Clay is now able to weave trouble by quite literally jumping away thanks to his his new best friend - a wrist mounted grappling hook that has been expertly tuned to account for Clay's lightweight frame and equipment load, making him as slippery as a snake and fluid as a professional dancer, ideally at least.

The bearer of the Ring of Dreams raises their hand up and open wide as if holding a large spherical object, as gold flecked shadows of deep purple pour like water from their open palm to the ground below. With the firm closing of the bearers hand into a fist the shadow coalesces into tangible form, appearing to each observer - a different shape and appearance, that of their deep-seated fears, or the closest physical manifestation of them.
Be they real or imagined, physical, or metaphysical, the fears of the onlooker rise from the inky mist into a shape recognizable. Each form uniquely tailored to the onlookers subconscious. The golden flecks of dust expand and cover the beings' surface with color and texture to better align with the illusion. In truth, the being is nothing more than a homunculus made of Oneiromantic magic, bound to the ring and the will of it's master. Shapeless in nature, the creature lashes out with tendrils and pseudopods that extend from its mass, which stays whole and moves as one entity, creating leg like appendages and stepping to the stride of the forward leg or legs, as the previous legs are reabsorbed into the mass.
Exert your Mind (unless you win a coin flip) and spend an Action.

The battle scar it’s being used on starts glowing in the same soothing light.
When the glowing stops you see that scar is healed.
In a world where monsters , magic and demonic deity’s exist, is it too far fetched to think that god might as well? Are the harbringers maybe gods angels send to us to gift of presents of divine nature? Is the existence of this item just a sick joke of a powerful being, trying to trick us into believing that there is a merciful , all powerful thing waiting for us on the other side. I guess we might never know.
Exert your Mind and spend a minute. Select a Living or Animate target within arm's reach. Select a Battle Scar on your target to treat.
The treated Battle Scar heals as you finish activating this Effect.
Clutching the rosary in the palm of one of your hands while saying a prayer activates the healing powers of it. You can faintly hear a choir of what must be angels singing while it’s being used. People spectating the healing process might perceive a crown above the head of the caster made of pure light.
“The origins of these powers be damned. I don’t care what man , god or demon these powers are from. I will use them to help the people I love!”
