Conner falls forward as his arms sleeves begin to move and twist. He clutches the ground and grits his teeth as slowly over 30 seconds an angel wing unfurls covered in large white feathers. Conner breathes only once before gritting his teeth into once more as a large bat wing unfurls stained black and white with ash. He looks upwards and flaps them taking off into the air. Each faction granting one of their wings lest the other day they supported him more.

Vita doesn’t shoot alone anymore. Her finger pulls the trigger, but something older, wilder, and far more ancient whispers corrections over her shoulder. A pact sealed with bite marks and inked blood lets her channel the predatory instincts of the creatures she’s bonded with. Every shot isn’t just calculated—it’s ordained.
When Vita raises a firearm, faint glowing patterns—like claw marks, runes, or faint iridescent scales—flash briefly along the barrel. Her eyes flicker with a beastly gleam, echoing the color or mood of her bonded companions. The air grows unnaturally still for a heartbeat, then she fires. The projectile feels guided, veering slightly mid-air as if nudged by unseen paws, wings, or spectral horns. If she deflects an incoming strike, there's a sharp burst of animalistic noise—a hiss, a growl, a shriek—that echoes from nowhere.
Vita has never seen her Gifts as magic—they’re relationships. Contracts, favors, whispers traded in dark corners and glowing meadows. This Gift is the result of deeper synchronicity with her bonded creatures: her aim guided by predatory instinct, her reflexes enhanced by something barely contained in her skin. Whether it’s Bapha nudging her shot with unseen force, or a fae wolf’s voice growling “duck” just in time, she’s a vessel for more than human talent now.
Where bullets fail others, hers adapt. Her firearms don’t just shoot—they hunt.
You gain the following benefits as long as engaged in combat with firearms.
+2 dice to all firearms rolls.
You also gain the following effects:

Once the werewolf tastes the blood of their prey, there's no escape. Those injured by the beast's claws and teeth are marked with its saliva. Their wounds smell strongly of blood, and it's only a matter of time before the werewolf returns with a vengeance to finish the kill.
This Effect activates whenever a target you have injured with your teeth or claws escapes the range of your unarmed attacks. It does not require an Action or Exertion. Select a target within arm's reach. Your target should be intuitively based on the triggering event. This Effect cannot be used unless the target is alive and bleeds.
Your target is marked with a throbbing wound that smells strongly of blood. The mark can only be discovered with a deep medical inspection or Effect. Removal inflicts a Severity 1 Injury on the target.

Audiences or mobs with a singular focus count as one target. Roll Charisma + Performance at Difficulty 6. All affected targets may resist by rolling Mind at Difficulty 7.
If you succeed, the targets will keep their full attention focused on you for Contested Outcome in Rounds. They will automatically fail any rolls related to noticing anything other than you.
If you pass from their perception and they are unable to pursue you, the Effect ends. If they can follow you, they must do so for 2 Rounds or the Effect will end. The Effect ends early if the target is Injured or violence occurs nearby.
This does not affect the target’s opinion of you or their mood, and they may take any Actions while affected (including attacking), as long as that action centers on you. Fascinated targets cannot Concentrate.
As a free creature, The Fairy cannot withstand being caged or imprisioned in any way. Luckily, they possess a glamour that allows them to unlock any lock binding them with a wink of their eye. The lock falls open with a sparkle of light and a sound like a ringing bell.

If, while you are unconscious, your wound level rises above your rating in Body + Charisma, or if you take an Injury with Severity greater than your rating in Charisma, you die. After you return, the Injury that would have killed you, as well as any Injuries sustained while Incapacitated, are healed. Battle scars obtained during this time remain.
