A single honeysuckle flower, colored dull and gray like concrete. When the dot of honey within is eaten, brown vines burst from the bottom of the flower, lashing outwards to constrict the target. Sometimes, the honey within drips back into existence.
Marcielle's second attempt at cultivating the perfect crop. The Gray Dust Honeysuckle was meant to bear fruit, but instead just produces an abundance of concrete gray flowers. Due to it's lack of fruit and tendency to grow hyper aggressively, it is not a viable candidate.
Spend an Action and use up this dusty gray honeysuckle flower (unless you succeed on 1d10, Difficulty 7). Select a target within 45 feet. Roll 7 dice Difficulty 6, dice penalties do not apply. The target may contest by Defending or Dodging.
If you succeed, your target will be restricted at their location by a physical, tangible binding. They can still move their arms and use Effects, but cannot move to a new location.
The binding around a target must be destroyed in order for them to break free. Breaking the binding requires a total amount of Damage equal to twice the original Contested Outcome. Damage from multiple attacks is cumulative and stacks linearly.
You may use this Effect as a Reaction to contest any physical Action a target is taking. Excess Outcome does not restrict the target. This interrupts Concentration.
This charm glows brightly, as your luck is pushed to its absolute limits, making you bang your head on the table one second, but the next you are dodging bullets by sheer happenstance by tripping and slipping and hilarious luck.
Use up this good luck charm and spend an Action to activate.
You phase out of reality for 4 Rounds. During this time, you cannot affect the outside world but may take mental and self-targeting Actions. You cannot move. Nothing can interact with you in any way.
You leave yourself, bumbling comedically at your location.
Pot of Gold whisky comes in a tarnished flask with faintly glowing Celtic patterns. The golden liquid swirls mysteriously, and when consumed, grants a surge of grit and warmth. But an eerie, metallic aftertaste hints at its alien origin.

Your Stress from Injuries and Mind Damage is reduced to 0. Lasts three hours.
"Yep! This stuff works! How do you think I keep my complexation? I learned this one from an ol'friend I met way back when. But for some reason, you need to dress and act as a cowpoke. Not entirely sure why it does that. Chief says it's something to do with the essence of the maker supporting the one who drinks it."

The front of the bottle has a label that calls this stuff "Snake Oil." Turning the bottle you find a list of ingredients.

* Newt
* Moonbeam
* Cowboy Vampire Blood
Spend a minute and use up this Amber liquid in a glass flask (unless you succeed on 1d10, Difficulty 7). Select a Living or Animate target within arm's reach. Select a Battle Scar on your target to treat.
The treated Battle Scar heals as you finish activating this Effect. Your patient is required to dress & act like a cowboy/girl for the next month. If they violate this rule, your treatment is immediately reversed.
Healing a Battle Scar in this way leaves behind Pale Skin, slightly pointy teeth on the target which cannot be healed.
Johnny pulls out a small, smooth metal box the size of a Rubik's cube which he keeps in his toolbelt. After pressing a small red button and tossing the box up it begins rapidly expanding and shifting until it splits into up to 3 mechanical automatons. These Lil' Automatons are 1.5 meters tall are made up of cubes and rods giving them the appearance of a toy robot. On their foreheads the have a corresponding number between 1 and 3 differentiating them from each other. They make cute beeps, boops and whirring noises (Bastion from Overwatch as a reference) as they act and when they accept a command they give a small salute.
Feeling lonely at work and putting his newfound powers and crafting capabilities to use, Johnny created the Hydraulic Automaton Nemesis Destroyer Squad or H.A.N.D.S for short. Fearing being outnumbered on contracts, Johnny took matters into his own hands and created 3 robot buddies to aid him on his missions named Sprocket (1), Ratchet (2) and Torque (3). Harnessing the pocket dimension he uses to craft items out of thin air he was able to create a small box capable of summoning his Lil' helpers but with only enough fuel to last them for a couple hours, at which point they power down and crumble away into dust.
Use up this Box and spend an Action.
Summon up to 3 Non-Sapient, Animate Lil' Automaton at your location. They last for two hours or until they are destroyed. They are controlled by the GM but will follow any commands you give.
The Future Soldier learned to create foam grenades in their own time period, and they still can, kinda. They look like glowing orange capsules with a rugged rubberized grip. When thrown, they burst into a splash of expanding neon orange foam. The foam hardens in seconds, severely hampering the movement of anyone unlucky enough to have been splashed. Those affected may use their hands or weapons to hack away at the foam and free themselves.
Occasionally, the fuses on these bootleg grenades fails, and they go off immediately.
Spend an Action and use up this small metallic grenade with pin (unless you succeed on 1d10, Difficulty 7). Make a thrown Attack at a Location within normal Attack range. Roll a single D10 as a critical failure check. If you roll a 1, the Effect fails, and you are hit as it activates immediately at your present location. The target may roll to dodge or Defend, as normal for thrown Attacks. The Attack itself does not deal any Damage beyond the Effect.
If you succeed, all affected targets will be restricted at their location by a physical, tangible binding. They can still move their arms and use Effects, but are reduced to ¼ of their movement speed.
The binding around a target must be destroyed in order for them to break free. Breaking the binding requires a total amount of Damage equal to twice the original Contested Outcome. Damage from multiple attacks is cumulative and stacks linearly.
The Witch prepares a vial of green fluid that can be used to poison any food or drink. Anyone who consumes the poison will grow drowsy and then fall into a deep sleep. While unconscious, the victim dreams of the witch and learns a secret about them.

When the trap is triggered, your target becomes drowsy for the next 3 Rounds, during which time they suffer an additional -2 dice Penalty to all Actions. At the end of their drowsiness, they fall asleep for Contested Outcome x 3 hours.
Sleeping targets will not prematurely wake up on their own, and can only be awoken by taking Damage or nearing death from hunger, thirst, or suffocation. Drowsy targets always fall asleep, regardless of what happens while they are drowsy.
An affected target's dreams while they are asleep will involve you in some way, and will reveal you as the source of their sleep as well as reveal secret information about yourself to them.
If an affected target was already sleeping when you used this Effect, they are put into a deep coma that lasts indefinitely, but they will be awoken from it if a kiss from someone who's attracted to them.

The Ninja always prepares a few smoke bombs ahead of time to get out of sticky situations. They can fill a room with smoke in an instant and last long enough for the Ninja to make an escape or find an opening for attack.
Spend an Action and use up this smoke bomb.
You create a hemispherical dome of smoke originating at your Location, with a radius of 60 feet. and lasting for 5 minutes. The area inside your zone is affected in any number of the following ways:
The mad scientist produces thorium cores that can be used to upgrade tools and other devices. The core supercharges the item, increasing its quality and rendering it indestructible for a period. However, once the core runs dry, the object is rendered less useful than it was before. The core crackles with blue electricity while active.
Spend 1 Action and use up this glowing blue disk. Select a non-Alien Device within arm's reach. Cannot be used to improve Armor.
Lasts the next two hours. Your target receives 2 extra dice to all actions taken for its intended use. Attacking with an upgraded weapon grants +2 Weapon Damage instead of additional dice. While it is upgraded, the item cannot be destroyed.
