This shotgun's wooden stock shows signs of wear underneath its immaculate varnish. It is of a peculiar construction, with a thick revolving cylinder which has 6 slots set up in paired groups, so that each position lines up neatly with the weapon's twin barrels. Ordinarily, it looks like a normal - if unique - weapon, but when firing against a target weak to a particular material or object, the cylinder exhumes a puff of needles and other forest refuse as the projectiles inside are transformed into the appropriate material for its destruction. Additionally, when used by an unsteady hand, the gun shivers and moves ahead of its wielder, guiding their aim to the proper position for them.

Spiraling runic shapes lift from the pages of History in Blood and surround the user's hands and arms. As soon as fingers are laid upon the flesh of a willing participant, it begins to roil and split. Runes are written across the target's skin, similar in nature to a particular cursed witch. The target can feel something crawling about their body, a coldness that rustles in the back of their mind, before their form is improved by the ritual.
Generally, these improvements are marked by a wound that never wants to close and must be bandaged. These wounds often take the form of runic symbols, strange and supernatural in origin, though their meanings are esoteric and unknown.

By performing a short ritual detailed at the end of the extra chapter, an occultist can imbue themselves with a potent, albeit short-lived, expansion of their natural senses not unlike the capabilities of many nightwalkers. After being fed a measure of blood, the skin around the practitioner’s eyes will stain red, only to fade back to its normal coloration after a few moments.
Whenever these senses are being tapped into, the practitioner’s irises will turn blood red, and will eventually stain the space around their eyes with extended use. Their vision will be tinted with a deep blue whenever detecting electricity and heat, with creature’s circulatory and nervous systems lighting up with red and silver respectively.

The gems on the crown glow an eerie black light, providing mind and soul, as Mimikao draws out a piece of himself to give, providing mass and form, the small chunk of differentiated shadows is then released-floating down to the ground before forming into a large cat made of shadows with a decently large pair of wings (though they're mostly cosmetic, it could fly under its own power even without them) and a large white gem in the center of its chest.
