Eclipse Reflex Erebus' Dexterity
The user permanently has their reflexes and reaction time heightened by drawing upon the power of Erebus, the god of shadows and darkness.
The user invokes the power of the dark arts, permanently shrouding themselves in a very subtle veil of shadow. This shadowy aura enhances their speed and reaction time, their movements may seem to blur or flicker. The air around them feels colder, and subtle, dark streaks trail behind their rapid movements. To onlookers, the user appears to move in a fluid, almost surreal manner, as if time itself bends around them.
You gain the following benefits at all times.
Your Dexterity rating is increased by 2. You may Exert your Mind to automatically gain an Outcome of 5 on any roll that uses Dexterity (Cannot be used on combat rolls or Power activations).
Possession of this Power grants the following Battle Scar: Unusual Presentation.
Possession of this Power grants the following Trauma at all times: Compulsive Liar.
You also gain the following effects:
- Reactionary: You gain an additional Reaction each Round. You cannot take an Action after taking a Reaction.
- Attribute bonuses from multiple sources do not stack. Instead the highest bonus is used.

Charlatans
“Unsettling are the days in which everyone is an expert.”
― Criss Jami
Nowadays you can't go a day without some phony prophet trying to peddle their wares to you.
Driven by the increased interest in the supernatural, charlatans from palm readers to televangelists are everywhere. And while the vast majority of witches, psychics, magicians, hypnotists, cures, potions, faith healers, and clairvoyants are complete fakes, they do make a living.
As the saying goes, "it's easier for an actor to make it in alternative medicine than Hollywood."
Most people scoff at these clearly-phony supernatural services, yet those same people often buy into at least one scam.
The most dangerous charlatans are the self-styled monster hunters who carry a mall-ninja arsenal and guns with silver bullets. Most have never encountered anything supernatural and do absolutely nothing besides burn some sage and patrol the area for a night or two. Even so, those who are superstitious, fearful, or desperate enough will hire them to solve the problems they simply don't understand. In some cases with disastrous results.
For Contractors, charlatans are red herrings and obstacles. Clumsy fakes that conjure a smokescreen of misinformation and escalate the situations they're in.
