As a member of the original species to practice this art, it only makes sense that Leon would pursue a small restoration of his power at the first chance he got. The power of the gift frees a small part of his soul from the botched ritual that half shackles it to Hasashi's shrine in japan. Bastard. Still, while it isn't quite at the level of complexity or range that Leon desires as of yet, the feeling of knowing that you can make someone go fuck themselves with a glance is one that Leon finds comforting.
Exert your Mind (unless In the moonlight) and spend at least one Action to activate. Select a number of Sapient targets equal to your Charisma at any range. Make a Trauma roll when you activate this Effect. Communicate a command to your targets. Roll Charisma + Influence at Difficulty 6. The targets may resist by rolling Mind at Difficulty 7.
If the contested Outcome is positive, your targets will be compelled to follow your command to the letter-- but not necessarily the spirit-- of the command until they have completed it or for your Outcome in days. You cannot issue another suggestion to the target until 10 minutes after they have completed the first command or 10 minutes after a failure.
The target is unaware that they are under supernatural influence and feel they are acting of their own free will. If you fail, they realize that you were attempting to influence them supernaturally with your command.
Your command can be an order to take an immediate Action, a conditional request, and an abstract goal. You cannot order a target to "do nothing," and they are free to take other Actions as they fulfill your request. Commands can put the target into a potentially self-endangering scenario, including Combat, though you cannot force a target to directly attack themselves. Commands may force a target to violate one of their Limits, and they will need to make a Trauma roll once the suggestion wears off.
You must have some means of communicating this command to your targets, but no one other than you and them will understand or perceive it.
This Effect ends if you are stunned, fall asleep, go unconscious, are incapacitated, die, or if your total Penalty ever exceeds 5.
The beastmaster places a hand on the target and his eyes start to glow bright gold, then it spreads through to his head, down his neck through his shoulder, and down his arm to the target.

Finally, the girls are fusing the way theyโve wanted to since they began Contracting, three and a half years ago. It took Graceโs left eye for them to try this, but the girls are now able to spend a week focusing their energy towards a Battle Scarred area and permanently replacing it with The Spiritโs ghostly flesh. The replaced chunks, eyes, arms, whatever may come, appear just as The Spiritโs: bluish and semi-transparent, but now function just as the respective physical flesh would.
