The Severity of any Injury caused by Fire is increased by 2.
Lilith has discovered how to more carefully manipulate the blood in her body as well as the bodies of people around her. With a simple flick of her wrist, she is able to lengthen and sharpen the nails of her fingers (which are now simply hardened bloodmass) for precise incisions. Along with her other talents, this allows her to more easily extract blood from targets, perform mundane surgeries on a whim, and even use these blades in moments of desperation.

Your body provides you with the functionality of Medical Equipment (Scalpel, Bone Saw, Tweezers, Sutures, Phlebotomy Supplies, Syringes, etc.). If used to attack, these "tools" use the same stats as a small knife.
Danielle Laika has always been strong, but through imbuement, she has become almost unstoppable. Her arms are almost as thick as the trees that she can fell with a single stroke of her axe. Her broad shoulders can easily shrug off blows from any force, and a flexing of her muscles can even deflect or shatter bullets.
After the Events of Game IV, Danielleโs supreme strength no longer requires that she eats an unnatural amount of protein, much to the pleasure of her digestive system.
Power comes with a price, however, and her strength can only be maintained as long as she continues to feed her body with a steady source of protein, which her body uses to heal damaged muscle and create stronger ones at a supernatural rate. This often comes from the meat of the animals that she hunts, but she's not against carrying extra protein powders and supplements in order to ensure that her muscles are always strong.
You gain the following benefits at all times.
Your Brawn rating is increased by 1. You may Exert your Mind to automatically gain an Outcome of 5 on any roll that uses Brawn (cannot be used on combat rolls or Effect activations).

The world around him briefly flickers, revealing a hidden layer of code beneath reality. His eyes glow a piercing electric blue, syncing his movements with the digital flow. He raises his weapon, its barrel lined with shifting holographic data, and the air crackles with anticipation. With a swift, precise motion, George fires, and each bullet seems to tear through both space and code, disrupting systems and causing sparks to fly as the shot connects. The bulletโs impact doesnโt just create chaosโit sends shock waves through technology, unraveling the digital world around him with pinpoint accuracy. Every shot is a calculated strike, as if George is both gunslinger and hacker, rewriting reality with every pull of the trigger.

While in irradiated zones, heat, cold, pressure, radiation, and other native hazards do not affect you. Dangerous local flora and fauna will not bother you unless you give them a reason.

Roy strikes his cane against a surface and a set of orbiting rings appear around his target. Any attack that passes the rings seems to flicker, change direction, or sometimes even vanish entirely until appearing on the other side.
Formed from knowledge gifted to him, Roy is able to loosen the dimensional fabric around his target. Upon colliding with the rings an attack is shifted in the 4th dimension, causing their damage to be weakened or sometimes miss entirely. Objects that leave the ring's circumference return to their original state regardless of how much they shifted.
Exert your Mind and spend an Action or Reaction. Select a Animate target within 20 feet. You cannot target yourself. You must actively and obviously use cane or staff to activate this Effect. Roll Intellect + Science at Difficulty 6.
If you succeed, you create a barrier around your target, which absorbs the next Outcome + 4 Damage. Half any Damage absorbed by the barrier is reflected back to the attacker. They may attempt to Dodge or Defend using a Desperate Defense, and their Armor applies in full. The Damage reduction from the barrier is applied before Armor. You may only have 1 active barrier at a time.
You must maintain Concentration while using this Effect. The barrier will fall if you are interrupted, or if it absorbs the full amount of Damage. When a barrier falls, you cannot use this Effect again for a minimum of 2 Rounds.
The Vampire is able to turn one of their victims into a lesser vampire, a pale shadow of a full creature of the night but useful nonetheless. Having drained and killed their target, the Vampire performs a brief ritualistic bloodletting, wherein they spill their own blood into the target's mouth, forcing them to drink, and bonding them together as child and sire.
Shortly afterwards, the fledgling vampire will rise from death, hungry for blood and eager to serve.
Increase your sacrificial Injury's Severity by 1 and spend one minute. Select a Dead target within arm's reach that has died within the last hour. This Effect cannot be used unless you drained the target's blood while they were still alive.
Your target rises as an Animate being. The raised creature is totally mindless, with no memory of its past life or hint of its old personality. They cannot communicate. They will follow any command you speak.
The creature lasts until it dies again. It is revived at full health. Any Injuries it had in life are not accounted for when determining its penalties or progression towards re-death, though they may affect its ability to perform certain actions at GM's discretion. The raised creature must consume flesh every day or it will die again.
Raised creatures have their Abilities set to the same that they were in life. Their Charisma and Intellect are set to 1, but their Dexterity, Brawn and Perception are the same as they had in life. A raised creature cannot use any Effects.
Your revived targets deal 2 Weapon Damage with their unarmed attacks.
If you do not have a sacrificial Injury when you activate this Effect, take a new Severity-1 Injury.
Finally, the girls are fusing the way theyโve wanted to since they began Contracting, three and a half years ago. It took Graceโs left eye for them to try this, but the girls are now able to spend a week focusing their energy towards a Battle Scarred area and permanently replacing it with The Spiritโs ghostly flesh. The replaced chunks, eyes, arms, whatever may come, appear just as The Spiritโs: bluish and semi-transparent, but now function just as the respective physical flesh would.
You gain the following benefits at all times.
Any Injury you receive heals quickly, reducing its Severity by one level every 6 hours. Any Injuries you receive while this Effect is active do not deteriorate over time. However, any Battle Scars caused by such an Injury will remain unless it is Properly Stabilized as normal.
All Injuries you receive are considered Properly Stabilized. You may also choose to heal any Battle Scar on yourself that may not have been caused by an Injury. Doing so takes one day, and the Battle Scar affects you fully until that time.
Possession of this Power grants the following Battle Scar: any scars that heal this way leave the flesh in that area bluish and semi-transparent, causing you to be viewed as a freak by most people who see you.
The beastmaster shouts, and their human voice cracks into a deep, bestial roar. Their body swells with muscle, clothes melting into a thick pelt of fur. Seconds later the beastmaster is gone. Standing in their place is a massive grizzly bear.
However, even in human form the beast within remains close to the surface, and the beastmaster finds highly civilized social situations unbearable.
Exert your Mind and spend an Action.
You transform into a brown bear for two hours or until you choose to end the Effect. See the Extended System text for stats.
While transformed, you cannot use any equipment (including Artifacts and Consumables), and you cannot use your Active, Targeted, or Trap Powers. However, you can use your Passive Powers. Any equipment you are wearing transforms with you.
Injuries and Wound Level are carried over between forms. However, transforming can never kill you; you merely remain Incapacitated until your Injuries are sufficiently healed.
Possession of this Power grants the following Trauma at all times: Intolerance for society. When you are in a situation with strict social protocols (like a trial or a formal dinner) roll Self-Control not to enter a flight or fight response.

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