An intense cyan light flares from the microprocessor's spot beneath the user's skin (typically installed on the back of the neck or base of the spine). The user's irises, as well as random capillaries in any body parts augmented by their borrowed powers, emit the same light until the channeling is complete.

The Sons of Salem
We swear to secure our people against the wickedness and evil of the invisible world.
We swear to aid the afflicted.
We swear to stay ever vigilant and seek out the abominable witchcrafts committed in this country.
We humbly pray to be blessed by God to hold all those who consort with the Devil accountable. Amen
—Opening and closing prayer for Sons of Salem meetings.
The Sons of Salem is a loosely-organized conservative populist movement in the United States that preaches violent opposition to anything they perceive as witchcraft, demonic, or monstrous.
Blowhard podcaster Ted Gundy and former general of the mercenary group “Hognose,” Roland Rush, founded the movement in 2010 after a series of violent werewolf attacks and unexplained, supernatural murders in Tennessee. Memberships grew quickly, stoked by Ted’s fiery doomsday rhetoric on his podcast "Truth Seekers" and the aspiration of the masculine power embodied by Roland.
Although they speak of duty, honor, and maintaining the “natural order” of things, the Sons of Salem are driven by fear. They collect guns and appear at protests en-masse as a way of easing the all-consuming terror of their powerlessness. At the same time, they have conditioned themselves to respond to fear with “strength” (read: violence).

Rip and Tear
Flesh rips and tears, parting with bare handed ferocity as the limbs or flesh are pulled apart and messily slammed in place. The recipient is whole and unscarred once the blood is wiped away. (Mind damage is a psychological effect from horror of being torn apart, and the recovery is due to the brief euphoria of rapidly healing an injury.)
Exert your Mind and spend an Action. Select a Sapient target within arm's reach. If a target does not consent to the transfer, you must roll Brawn+Melee at Difficulty 6 to use the effect on them. They can resist by rolling either Body or Mind at Difficulty 6, depending on what you are attempting to transfer to them.
You may choose one each of as many things as you like from the following to transfer from your target to yourself, or from yourself to them:
- Up to two points of Mind damage
- A single Injury and any Battle Scars it caused
Anyone who witnesses you during this Effect's activation will almost certainly be disturbed to see the user rip flesh from one target and slam it into the wounds of another.
Whenever you transfer an Injury, it's Severity increases by 1. Whenever you transfer Mind damage or Traumas, the recipient takes an additional Mind damage.
- When narrating disturbing content, be cognizant of your group's tone and accommodating to those who would like to "fast forward" through the description.

Experiment 00-68-6057 "The Poor will Thank Us!"
You got hurt? Maybe even mortally injured? Well we have a solution for you!
When used, the affected area starts bleeding rapidly, where every layer of blood that comes out, it dries super fast then builds up a new layer of healed flesh under it till the injury has been fully transferred. If it's an internal effect, blood will either come out of another orifice closest to the injury or a black goop. If it's a mental effect, it will fill the eyes before draining via tears.
This is one of the few experiments that got the intended effect; after a long time of trying to find a way to heal significant damage, we figured out a way. However, the injuries, for at least what we have seen, are a fundamental part of reality. So instead of just healing it, it has to be transferred. This is still beneficial as we have figured out also to do it wirelessly via some quantum physics shenanigans my workers have done. I don't really care. I'm just happy it works.
