Necronomicon

Created and held by Fred.
A thick book bound in an unknown leather

The one using this rapidly flips through the book ending up on a specific page they then begin to rapidly read through the pages of the book and begins to spout off in an occult language, they then begin to vomit forth an ocean of Black blood with the consistency of tar covering the ground up to twenty feet away if this blood comes in contact with undead it then begins climbing up the legs of undead continuing on to the head it the begins to seep into the eye sockets, head or whatever is left of it on the undead, while they are under the control of this effect a tar like substance slowly leaks out of any wounds or holes that the undead suffers as well as the eye sockets or head.

Increase your sacrificial Injury's Severity by 1 and spend an Action. Select a Non-Sapient, Animate target within 300 feet. This Effect cannot be used unless used on undead.

For the next day, you may issue specific commands to your target which they will be compelled to follow. All other Non-Sapient, Animate targets which are the same species as your target will also be compelled to follow commands that you issue if they are within 300 feet when the command is given.

Your commands can be complex and multi-layered, though they must still be specific. You can make them endanger themselves or otherwise go against their self-preservation instincts. The effects of the command will fade after a day has passed.

If you use this Effect on the same Creature two days in a row, the effect lasts indefinitely.

Anyone who witnesses you during this Effect's activation will almost certainly be disturbed to see The user vomits forth a large amount of blood.

After you finish activating this Effect, you cannot move quicker than a walk (max 15 feet per Round) for one minute and suffer a -1 dice penalty for an hour. Exhaustion’s penalty and duration stacks with multiple activations.

  • Exhaustion penalties and duration stack. If you activate this Effect or another Effect with Exhaustion, your penalty will worsen, and the duration is increased by one hour.

The one using this effect must open up the book and state the target and desired change they wish to make. The book's pages then begin to rapidly turn before finally stopping on a page, this page details how to correctly preform the desired procedure, The Steps to complete the procedure are gruesome requiring the user to user to perform a vivisection on the target utilizing their bare hands, After the target has been opened up, the user must then continue following the instructions to perform a necromantic ritual on the target, fusing and grafting the targets flesh with a tar like substance that completely consumes the subject. After a short period of time the Tar is absorbed into the subject, and they are made anew. If The target is an undead the procedure is much simpler to complete with the one using it, this is due to the decreased effort needed to complete the ritual

Exert your Mind (unless target is undead) and spend eight hours. Select a Living or Animate target within arm's reach. The target can easily Resist.

By transplanting a body part from an Alien being, you can grant an intrinsic Effect from that part to the subject. Its power level should be limited to one Gift Point or less.

The book is pulled, out and the phrase From Death Life, is spoken aloud, the heavy tome opens and begins to rapidly flip between the page, before landing on a page covered in occult words, symbols and diagrams, the bearer of the book will then be forced to begin reading the book, as they begin to speak, they begin to bleed from their eyes and mouth, blood running down as a thick viscous sludge, that begins to enter the body of the deceased, causing the body to begin to stand as the blood begins to crystalize within the body replacing any missing parts, before finally the deceased are granted a new lease on life.

Divine Guidance

Created by Cassiopeia Sonelios, given to Jacob Cruz.
An amulet with what seems to be a golden coin that you can spin around. Think the Time-Turner from Harry Potter. Too bad it couldn’t turn back time.

Calling on a generous deity, you watch as a rainbow swirls before you and carries on your words. Be mindful of the fact that this is a goddess before you; there's a chance you might just go insane.
You may toss a golden coin in as an offering to the deity if you wish, and you might even hear a small, thankful whisper from the cosmos. The recipient watches as a projection of Iris appears before them with an ephemeral scroll, though only they can understand what the message is.
While the rainbow is visible during activation, onlookers will soon realize that it's faded away, and you seem to be talking to someone that no one else can see...

Spend an Action. Select a target any distance away from you. You must have a specific target in mind, but you require only an intuitive understanding of them, such as their name, face, or Location. This Effect cannot be used unless it is between the hours of 7am and 7pm in the user's local timezone.

You open up a line of communication to your target, and may converse with them as long as one of you maintains Concentration

The conversation will only be perceived by the intended recipient. You must share a common language for your target to understand the message.

Anyone who witnesses you during this Effect's activation will almost certainly be disturbed to see a physical manifestation of a powerful goddess materialize in front of them, exposing ancient horrors not meant for mortal eyes.

This Gift cannot have more than 3 Drawbacks, and its Gift Cost is capped at 2.

  • When narrating disturbing content, be cognizant of your group's tone and accommodating to those who would like to "fast forward" through the description.
  • Receiving a message does not force a target to pay attention to you, and they can feel free to ignore your message if they choose. Depending on the flavor of your Gift, they may or may not be able to return to it and read it later on.
  • Generally you cannot communicate with Contractors who are not in a Contract with you.
  • You can target yourself if you qualify as a valid target by the other requirements.

Arachnida Apparatus V.1

Created and held by Octavia Spencer.
A pair of gloves with tubules of different vials and chemicals on the wrist slots, with touch screen fingertips as well as sealed electrics and a waterproof coating.

The gloves shoot out threads of fluid toward the target, with some coated with sharp glass like hypodermic nettles that puncture and hold the target, with the fluid then rapidly contracting as it pulls the target onto a surface.

Spend an Action. Select a target within 45 feet. Roll Dexterity + Medicine at Difficulty 6. The target may contest by Defending or Dodging.

If you succeed, your target will be pushed or pulled towards a surface within 45 feet and is restricted at that location by a physical, tangible binding. They can still move their arms and use Effects, but cannot move to a new location.

Restricted targets may escape their binding by spending an Action and taking a Severity-1 Injury. Their movement is reduced by 10 feet until the Injury heals.

If your target does not escape within 3 Rounds, they cannot ever free themselves and must be rescued.

This Gift cannot have more than 3 Drawbacks, and its Gift Cost is capped at 1.

  • For entities whose movement could be considered an attack (e.g. a kaiju), the GM may rule that they are merely slowed instead of fully restricted.
  • 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.

Exert your Mind and spend an Action. Select a target any distance away from you. You must have a specific target in mind, but you require only an intuitive understanding of them, such as their name, face, or Location. This Effect cannot be used unless the targeted person is also in possession of a planet stone.
