Edgar seems to shrug off wounds easily, blood clots almost immediately, though deep wounds will remain for some time.
This process is hindered if the wound was inflicted by fire - the scabrous flesh of ghouls burns as well as anyone.
You gain the following benefits at all times.
Any Injury you receive from a source other than Burns heals quickly, reducing its Severity by one level each hour, starting once it becomes stabilized. Battle Scars caused by your Injuries will remain. Any Injuries you receive stabilize automatically and do not deteriorate further.
As long as at least half your body remains intact, you cannot die and remain at Incapacitated, regardless of how many Injuries you take. It is clear to observers that you are still alive. If you take any Injuries that would kill you, they instead cause Battle Scars.
Baldric grabs a ball of steel weighing no less than 10 grams, crushing it in his palm a glowing brilliant light emits from between his fingers before the metal transform into ethereal surgical tools that work to repair the target. Missing body parts are sewn into existence as they painlessly integrate back into the target. Special care is taken with nervous systems as the tools shrink and multiple to work in tandem with each other.
The tools created from this effect are visible as ghostly tools made of the essence of the steel bead that is consumed in the activation of this power. While the gift does not have traumatizing, the idea of being healed by many small surgical tools can be concerning to some. One over the idea of it, the procedure is in fact painless and can even feel nice and tingly.
Exert your Mind and spend an hour. Select a Living target within arm's reach. You must use up A 10g bead of steel in order to activate this Effect. Select a Battle Scar on your target to treat.
The treated Battle Scar heals as you finish activating this Effect. If used on a Battle Scar caused by an Unstabilized Injury, that Injury is Stabilized.
You may specify a specific condition that the patient must adhere to. If they break this condition, the treatment is immediately reversed. Record this regimen as a Condition. Lasts until the end of their next Contract or 1 month for non-Contractors.
As the change overtakes him, Norman is instantly engulfed in a violent flash of blood-red flame, the searing light swallowing his human form in less than a heartbeat. With a guttural, agonized scream that twists the soul, his already imposing figure contorts and swells in a blur of impossible speed. Where Norman once stood, an abomination towers—a nightmarish, eldritch beast over nine feet tall. Its hide is covered with thick fur; a swirling, reddish-brown coat constantly rippling as if alive, radiating waves of unnatural heat. Two jagged and ribbed horns rip from its skull and curve menacingly backwards and to the sides, their edges glowing faintly with feverish energy. The creature’s eyes burn with a sickly, otherworldly glow, and its mouth stretches into a savage rictus, exposing an arsenal of needle-like, interlocking fangs. The air seems to warp and shudder around it, reality recoiling from each of its thunderous, echoing steps. The transformation ends as suddenly as it began, leaving the world ringing with the echo of Norman’s tortured scream and the lingering, acrid scent of scorched earth—a horrifying reminder of the eldritch power now unshackled.
