He sits next to his patient, and reaches in to pull a few mundane objects from the bag: bandages, medical tape, and some skin glue. As he works, his hands start to glow a greenish-gold and seals the wound shut, if all goes correctly.
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.
Delphyrion reaches a hand into their hair and pulls out what seems to be a hypercube. One can't really perceive what's inside it, but as it intersects with our world, a more recognizable object emerges.
On stashing:
Delphyrion's had access to obscure and illicit chemicals for a long time, but they hadn't expected to make such great use of them on the contracts. He loves his bags and long coats and big pockets, but he could always use a better way to store things that he doesn't want people seeing. There's a limit to how many liquids he could bring on a plane, and how many times someone could mistake him for a perv who brings... a "certain kind of liquid" to deadly missions.
On technique:
He's itching to go up to someone and lift his lab coat while saying, "Want some goods?" at some point. It's definitely more practical to pull it out from under their hair though.
On hypercubes:
There were so many. Too many. 8. Eight. Huit. Ocho. 여덟. Not a good memory. Still a cool concept. He hates it. He's enamoured. So much left to learn. He's falling.

Anyone who witnesses you during this Effect's activation will almost certainly be disturbed to see a non-euclidean shape containing an ancient eldritch monster that threatens to rip itself apart to escape into this dimension. The mere weight of its truth causes anyone who looks at it to feel an intense headache (anguish).

Your senses are enhanced in the following way.
From the offset, nothing looks off about the user. However, as this Gift buffs the body, they will find that they need to be more careful. Pulling a towel off a bar might pull the towel off, or opening a car door might rip the door off the hinges. With enough raw power into the body, the world might even become closer and closer to cardboard, as the user gains increased amounts of strength and raw destructive power.
You gain the following benefits as long as you are engaged in unarmed combat.
+2 dice to rolls for Attacking, Defending, and Clashing without a weapon. Unarmed attacks do +2 Weapon Damage (instead of -1).

A tarot card is burned up as the smoke forms into an illusion.
Gifted to Huey by The Fool, this gift was crafted from the inverted magician card and given as a reward for surviving the Sanctuary contract.
Spend an Action. Select a target within arm's reach. You must use up tarot cards in order to activate this Effect. Choose an illusion to generate, which can be no larger than a briefcase.
The chosen illusion is generated at your target, and it will remain in place for the next minute or you choose to end it. It can be perceived by people through their sight. The illusion cannot be used as an attack. You cannot make an exact replica of an existing Animate being or Object.
Anyone who touches the illusion (or who would be able to perceive it significantly through a sense it cannot fool) realizes it is an illusion, and the entire effect will be ended for all targets.
The illusion is not fixed to the initial target, and may move about at a maximum speed 30 feet per Round. It may have moving parts and engage in simple, predetermined movements but cannot perform anything complex or interactive unless you maintain Concentration and “puppeteer” it.
This Gift cannot have more than 3 Drawbacks, and its Gift Cost is capped at 2.

Most severe injuries occur far from a facility that could treat them, and in the fetid muck of the battlefield even minor wounds may be a death sentence.
