Monkey's Tail (But it's a cat tail)
Will arches his back and stretches, popping several joints along his back and hips before there is a small tearing sound and a long, cat-like tail forces its way from underneath his skin.
When he is distressed, the tail puffs up and becomes extremely rigid.
Exert your Mind and spend an Action.
You gain an additional limb that functions as a standard human arm and hand. Lasts two hours.
Each additional limb you posses can take one Quick Action per Round without incurring a -2 dice penalty to your main Action. Each additional appendage you have gives you +1 dice to make and resist Grapples (up to a maximum bonus of +4 dice).
Any Battle Scars that affect or remove your additional limb will heal in a single week.
Your extra appendage can be used to attack in exactly the same manner as a club.
You may dedicate your extra Quick Action to contest any attempt to escape your Grapples. If you do so, you roll your full dice pool to contest and retain your Action to do anything that does not target the subject of your Grapple.

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.

Tongues
Size matters
A pair of mucus-coated tentacles project from the maw. Long and fleshy, they slither and grab with clumsy force. Any caught in their grip are dragged towards the maw and its eager teeth.
The maw slits Bert's gut and the tongues reside in the maw. These mutations are round, pink, and currently featurless, looking less like a product of nature and more the effects of horror film. But they have reach and strength. That's what matters.

Possessive Tail
"Curling my tail around you just lets you know I like you..."
In the latest batch of upgrades, Emily has gained both a finer degree of control over her tail, additional strength in it, and, in a pinch, the ability to secrete an adhesive substance.
She's not entirely sure who asked for that, but she can think of various cases where it could be useful.

Interdimensional Leech
A thick, black tentacle that seems to live hidden within the afflicted's chest, bursting forth when summoned and slowly coiling up once it is no longer needed, sealing the grievous room behind it in thickened scar tissue, which at all times feels clammy and dead to the touch.
Exert your Mind and spend an Action.

Your extra appendage is not connected to your nervous or circulatory systems, and you will not take damage if it is hit by an attack or destroyed.
Anyone who witnesses you during this Effect's activation or for its duration will almost certainly be disturbed to see an inky tentacle that seems to burst from the afflicted's chest, appearing to puncture the skin and causing the sound of splintering bones when summoned..
Possession of this Power grants the following Battle Scar: Horribly Disfigured - Your chest is concaved due to an interdimensional voyage gone wrong! (Any damage dealt towards your soft spot will deal an additional 2 damage. If an attack could feasibly hit your soft spot, flip a coin. On a fail, it hits your soft spot).
- You may stretch or retract your limbs once per Round on your Initiative.
- When narrating disturbing content, be cognizant of your group's tone and accommodating to those who would like to "fast forward" through the description.

Prehensile Tail
Since I grew it, it's had my back
