Eye contact is one of the most important things in a one-on-one conversation, Autumn knows this like nobody else, and her almost unnaturally vibrant, sharp eyes combined with her stunning good looks and natural charm certainly help draw all the attention of her conversation partner, making sure they hang onto her every word while she meticulously analyzes their demeanor.

Asha unleashes her inner beast, transforming into an imposing hybrid of human and wolf. Her head reforms into that of a wolf, robbing her of speech but bestowing a maw of deadly fangs. Dark brown, white-patched fur sprouts from her body as it swells with muscle, ripping any tight-fitting clothes. Her eyes turn amber in color and almost seem to glow. There is little humanity in them. While transformed, Asha is impulsive and driven more by instinct than logic.
If Asha is struck by the light of a full or gibbous moon, she is compelled to transform.
Asha is equally afraid of and enthralled with the wolf within. This could ultimately help her! But only if she can figure out to somehow control it.

You transform into a werewolf for 30 minutes. You have access to all of your Powers while you are a werewolf, and you can use your equipment.

Instead, you remain Incapacitated.

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

Naaranbatar pulls a golden needle and red string out of the air around him and starts mending, sewing and patching up the destroyed object, bringing it back into a working state. During the process he hums a hymn to Öd Tengri as the god turns back the time for the object being worked on.
Everything has a purpose imbued at the moment of creation, and the divine strings allow something to fulfill its job once more.
