I have found that ground beef works best, it is most able to dissolve into the most beautiful creation I have every laid my eyes upon. It must look weird, to the unvitiated, when I unhook my gear, pull out raw meat, and spread it out the wound, like a heathen in the woods practicing witchcraft, but within the first 5 minutes, the meat starts to dissolve, and explodes through their pores as a tar which resembles the void. 10 minutes in, and the flames begin, despite there being no heat, the healed will become engulfed in them, and visually, as I have heard from others, it appears as I am burning them alive, until 5 minutes later, the burnt husk appears as they did 15 minutes prior. To those around me, when I do this, I highly recommend they turn around with blindfolds and ear plugs, as they are more useful to me functional than useless in the presence of God's son.
Exert your Mind and spend 15 minutes to activate. Select a Living target within arm's reach. This Effect cannot be used unless Requires Flesh. Choose a specific Injury on your target that has not yet been treated with this Effect and roll Perception + Occult at Difficulty 8.
If you succeed, the Injury is reduced in Severity by your Outcome. If you reduce its Severity to 0, the Injury is fully healed. Otherwise, it is partially healed and will heal the rest of the way at its natural rate.
This counts as a successful Makeshift Stabilization if the Injury was not already Stabilized; any Battle Scars caused by the Injury will remain. 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.
Anyone who witnesses you during this Effect's activation will almost certainly be disturbed to see Flesh melts into body, comes out of pores as tar, then target appears to be burnt alive until the effect is over.

They go manic with sleep deprivation if they stay up for too long. Their "brain" in monitored for increasing levels of stress or chemicals induced by these signs of struggle and the sleepers body shuts itself off and wipes their consciousness, effectively killing themselves to save them from perpetual anguish. They can repurpose organics they "eat" into energy and use they air they breathe to help their artificial muscles move with pneumatics. Finally there is the company's 'Planned obsolescence'. Since the sleeper escaped the termination protocol has begun. Every day the Sleeper doesn't take a stabilizer made by the company their body begins to fail.
