As Joe looks upon the target with compassion--likely facing them with a hand on their shoulder--Joe's skin becomes vibrant. For the next minute, the target feels the warmth of the sun balanced by a cool ocean breeze from head to toe. Suddenly, an unusual tattoo is the only evidence of their Scar and their now fading sensations.
Exert your Mind and spend a minute to activate. Select a Living target within arm's reach. You cannot target yourself. Select a Battle Scar on your target to treat.
The treated Battle Scar will heal immediately. Your patient is required to cause no intentional Injury, directly or indirectly, to any Living being for the next month. If they violate this rule, your treatment is immediately reversed.
This Effect is not obvious, and the only sign you are using an Effect is Joe's skin becomes vibrant like he just had a 3-hour full-body massage. If someone suspects that an Effect was used, they must roll Perception + Alertness, Difficulty 8 to pick up on your Tell.
Healing a Battle Scar in this way leaves behind a tattoo like the rippling effect of sunlight shining down through water that faintly glows in the dark on the target which cannot be healed.
Even in human form, the werewolf retains their incredible sense of smell. This helps them track their prey and learn where people and things have been.

Any senses which have been heightened cannot be overloaded. Battle Scars you receive cannot affect these senses.

Gen-Wyld augmentation goes further and further. Emily has some state of the art augmentation integrated into her back, and, with a will, can, at an impressive speed (in absolute terms, Emily still thinks it's very slow) grow massive wings. These wings are almost entirely muscle and impressively flexible, and impressively strong.
You gain the following benefits as long as you spend a 2-round process to form your wings, or to deform them.
As long as you are conscious, you are immune to falling Damage and may hover in place mid-air. Additionally, you may glide as you fall, traveling 35 feet horizontally for every 10 feet you fall. While gliding, you fall at a minimum speed of 10 feet per Round.
You may ascend into the air and fly using your wings. You require 10 feet of clear space on all sides to fly. You may add 50 feet to Movement you take while flying. If you take more than a Severity 4 Injury to your wings via a called shot or Battle Scar, you can only glide until they are healed.
You are subject to the following effects while gliding or flying:
Ted Westwood, survivor of over a dozen Contracts, has experienced horrors most mortal men would never dare face, and been traumatised over and over by the things that lurk in the dark.

Furthermore, the treated wounds of their comrades never get infected.

All Stabilizations you attempt are considered Proper Stabilizations.
You also gain the following effects:
The beastmaster shouts, and their human voice cracks into a deep, bestial roar. Their body swells with muscle, clothes melting into a thick pelt of fur. Seconds later the beastmaster is gone. Standing in their place is a massive grizzly bear.
However, even in human form the beast within remains close to the surface, and the beastmaster finds highly civilized social situations unbearable.
Exert your Mind and spend an Action.
You transform into a brown bear for two hours or until you choose to end the Effect. See the Extended System text for stats.
While transformed, you cannot use any equipment (including Artifacts and Consumables), and you cannot use your Active, Targeted, or Trap Powers. However, you can use your Passive Powers. Any equipment you are wearing transforms with you.

You cannot ignore or decrease the effects of Stress for any Self-Control rolls you make.
The Necromancer temporarily assumes the form of their own corpse, complete with maggots, spilled entrails, and exposed bone. They cannot move while transformed, but their empty eye sockets see as well as ever.

You transform into your own corpse for one minute. While transformed, you may control the functioning of the object you have transformed into. You can perceive your surroundings as normal. You can be targeted as a Non-Living, Sapient Object.
