Akira can place his hand on the ground, proceeds to breathe in and out once, and “feel” the earth by pressing his hand into the grass. Feeling into the roots and closing his eyes, he could feel the energy and aura of every living being within a 100 feet radius. Even if said beings left in that area a long time ago. Anyone that’s near Akira can can feel a warm, calming glow of energy around him. He can only activate the effects by actually touching the grassland and dirt, and not any other surface (I.E. Steel, concrete, glass, etc.), and he cannot be touched during the process, or it’ll cancel out.

Harriet shuts her eyes as her shadow begins to change shape. Becoming vague and undefined as three figures climb out of it.
Harriet's oldest companions are beings of Edge and (now) Heart. They fall under the domain of The Lionsmith, thanks to their time spent spent with Harriet and her dedication to over throwing the status quo. They eventually gained a small amount of Heart, born from the emotional connection Harriet has fostered with them.
Their forms are reflective of what Harriet pictured as the perfect protectors, to keep her safe from all harm. They do not always succeed, but they always try.
They each appear as Arthurian knights, their shadows inky and ever shifting. Though to the untrained eye, they simply look like comic book characters brought to life.
Harriet knows this well.

The Thief casts a container's worth of fine powder into the air. The particulates are drawn to any sort of object that is designed to detect people, including tripwires, security cameras, detection lasers, heat sensors, etc. The powder will not trigger these devices or interfere with their operation, but it does reveal their presence to the Thief.
