The user of this gift produces more sweat and body oils than your average person, and this happens to work perfectly in their favor. Since there is so much sweat it acts as a constant barrier between the user and any flame, and due to their infernal and oily heritage, their blood is also very deadly when consumed. However because of the user's infernal heritage they are also incredibly weak to holy and blessed objects such as bullets dipped in holy water for example.

Bryan rapidly folds the paper along his form, creasing it until it folds into himself. He then merges into a silhouette of paper, maintaining the general shape and structure of his body while being visually constructed from a multitude of paper sheets. The process of splitting his mind across a multitude of sheets has the potential to damage his psyche in the process.
With Bryan reaching new levels of power, he has not only begun to develop through his mind and skills, but body as well. As such, he's now starting to gain abilities that can change his physiology. Basically looks like that one girl in the Akatsuki from Naruto (Konan).

It's funny how inspiration and knowledge can be gleaned from the beyond, especially when you are willing to carve the runes to do so into your skin. Each prana point represents the human psyche. The tree of life, parallel to the tree of knowledge of good and evil, contains the mysteries of the world that were denied to us when Eve ate that forbidden fruit and while augmented by the tree Gideon finds seeing through the enigma that is reality as simple as reading the information itself. Though, as with all mystical nootropics, it is unreliable for its greatest feats of mental alacrity, but then again, even Einstein wasn't at the top of his game every day.
You gain the following benefits as long as you have your Chest tattoo of the Sephiorthic Tree of Life.
Your Intellect rating is increased by 1. You may Exert your Mind to automatically gain an Outcome of 5 on any roll that uses Intellect (Cannot be used on combat rolls or Power activations).

Using his phone, Troy can generate a shield. It glows lightly and appears like a giant (not *that* big, but you know) plastic shield. If someone is behind him, they're also protected by the shield.
Because it comes from his phone, if he's without his phone, it doesn't work.
Exert your Mind (unless you win a coin flip) and spend an Action or Reaction. You must actively and obviously use a phone to activate this Effect. Roll Charisma + Technology at Difficulty 6.
If you succeed, you create a barrier around yourself, which absorbs the next Outcome + 2 Damage.

You may only use this Effect once per day.
The Toon performs some sort of cartoonish act of violence. This may be handing someone a bomb, hitting someone with a cartoon mallet, burping a burp that is so noxious it melts flesh, or anything else as long as it is cartoonish.
The attack is more of a throwaway gag than a plot element, so any props or properties of the attack are incidental and disappear immediately. Animated mallets evaporate in a puff of smoke, fire does not spread, and electricity cannot power devices.
Exert your Mind and spend an Action. Select a target within 45 feet. Roll Charisma + Performance Difficulty 6. The target may contest by rolling to Dodge or Defend as a Reaction, Difficulty 6.
If the contested Outcome is positive, the target takes that much Damage plus 4. Armor is fully effective against this damage.

Your alternate form is its own deadly weapon. Unarmed attacks made in your alternate form deal +3 Weapon Damage (instead of the typical -1).
