After ripping the page, a red deamon apears reading a copy of the paper (takes them a minit to finish)while drinking a crimson liquid. They will look at the castera giving them a thumbs up after finishing the cup. Looking at your hands will let you see a paper cut as you feel a bit light headed as if you just donanted blood.
Use up this A4 paper and spend one minute.

“Feline Heritage” is a transcendent ability that allows Darren to embrace the full extent of his mystical connection, transforming his eyes into those a white cat.

As he sits next to his patient, he gets his doctor's bag prepared. He pulls out some mundane items, bandages, skin glue, and some other items. As he works, his hands glow a greenish gold, healing over wounds.
Exert your Mind and spend 1 minute to activate. You must actively and obviously use Doctor's Bag to activate this Effect. Choose a specific Injury on yourself that has not yet been treated with this Effect and roll Intellect + Medicine at Difficulty 6.
If you succeed, the Injury is reduced in Severity by your Outcome. If you reduce its Severity to 0, the Injury is fully healed. Otherwise, it is partially healed and will heal the rest of the way at its natural rate.
This counts as a successful Makeshift Stabilization if the Injury was not already Stabilized; any Battle Scars caused by the Injury will remain.
Ricter has started to befriend Kazarisu, a Kamaitachi yokai spirit that accompanies him. However, he needs a bit of 'motivation' to do more than just protect him, as such he feeds him a pint of alcohol to offer some inspiration.
Kazarisu resembles a stoat in appearance and size but can grow to be as big as a wolverine if he wishes, with paws that can extend into sickle-like claws. He has jagged white fur that is smooth to the touch with black coloring on his tail tip.
--------------------
"I've learned in nearly half a year that Kazarisu is a bit fickle, likes stupid jokes that I make, chicken, and drinking. I'm glad to have him around but he tends to be a bit of a menace, especially when he chugs a whole bottle of wine and ends up cutting up my curtains...Nonetheless, I'm starting to like him, we even started watching soap operas together."
"Lately, I have been demanding we work together but he just lacks...motivation, not in a bad way though. So I bribe him with some wine occasionally, which seems to give him a physical body somehow, probably some form of yokai logic. Although he's mentioned that if he 'died' he'd just revert to his more spiritual clingy self, which was a relief."

Summon a single Sapient Kamaitachi at your location. They last until they are destroyed They are controlled by the GM but will follow any commands you give. You may have at most one minion active at a time.
Kenneth opens his briefcase, taking out a scalpel. He takes a moment to carve into his face, and slice off the outer layer of skin to it - it cleanly comes off, there is no blood, and this is a practiced motion.
Another face simply replaces the empty spot.
The appearance is a vague facsimile to somebody he has killed in the past. These are, regrettably, organically sourced. Each appearance he dons, is a person he himself has killed.
This is not a gift recieved from The Contracts, this is a baseline power. The character himself is some form of changeling - not adhering to any mainline folklore archetype. Consider this power as the character being an attempted body-double, he is the replacement of somebody, and so he takes their identity.
The removed face will, quickly, cease to exist within the span of a few minutes.
Any identity utilized is an identity assumed to have been, at one point, 'replaced', 'misplaced', or blatantly killed. As this character is an amnesiac with a slowly unraveling history, I might admittedly ass-pull a disguise. Important aliases will be listed on the 'stock' page.
Most importantly of all, Kenneth tries to embody the identity he uses. It would be an insult to the deceased if they are simply forgotten about, and their identities paved over. Kenneth, for the most part, does not remember anything about these people, simply supernaturally embodying them.
Spend a minute.
You become disguised in a manner of your choosing. The disguise lasts for two hours, or you may end it early at will.

You may roll Charisma + Crafts to attempt to make your disguise Beautiful. If your Outcome is 6 or higher, non-Effect Charisma rolls where your good looks could help are rolled at -2 Difficulty. If you fail or botch, you are ugly instead, and non-Effect Charisma rolls are made at +2 Difficulty.
Anyone who witnesses you during this Effect's activation will almost certainly be disturbed to see Kenneth taking a scalpel to his face, cleanly cutting it off, rolling it up, placing it in the briefcase, having his identity simply change before you, and perfectly blending in like nothing happened.
This Gift's Cost is capped at 2 and cannot be increased further.
This Effect ends if you take an Injury or are stunned or incapacitated.
