Be Well Friend (Restoration) "You heal when you heal the world."
Joe's skin begins to visibly glow. Soon, the target feels the warmth of the sun balanced by a cool, salty ocean breeze from head to toe. The sensation fades as quickly as it came. An unusual tattoo is the only evidence of their former Scar.
(Saving this for later: and the innate knowledge that they must spread Pacifism for the next month are)
Exert your Mind and spend a minute to activate. Select a Living target within arm's reach. Select a Battle Scar on your target to treat.
The treated Battle Scar will heal immediately.
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.
After you finish activating this Effect, you cannot move quicker than a walk (max 15 feet per Round) for one minute and suffer a -1 dice penalty for an hour.
- You can target yourself if you qualify as a valid target by the other requirements.

Charlatans
“Unsettling are the days in which everyone is an expert.”
― Criss Jami
Nowadays you can't go a day without some phony prophet trying to peddle their wares to you.
Driven by the increased interest in the supernatural, charlatans from palm readers to televangelists are everywhere. And while the vast majority of witches, psychics, magicians, hypnotists, cures, potions, faith healers, and clairvoyants are complete fakes, they do make a living.
As the saying goes, "it's easier for an actor to make it in alternative medicine than Hollywood."
Most people scoff at these clearly-phony supernatural services, yet those same people often buy into at least one scam.
The most dangerous charlatans are the self-styled monster hunters who carry a mall-ninja arsenal and guns with silver bullets. Most have never encountered anything supernatural and do absolutely nothing besides burn some sage and patrol the area for a night or two. Even so, those who are superstitious, fearful, or desperate enough will hire them to solve the problems they simply don't understand. In some cases with disastrous results.
For Contractors, charlatans are red herrings and obstacles. Clumsy fakes that conjure a smokescreen of misinformation and escalate the situations they're in.

Montaigne's Blood Vial
Courtesy of the Vilebloods...
Injecting the syringe into yourself causes you to feel incredibly sluggish and puts you in a state where you can't properly function for an hour. During this time, the body regenerates at an accelerated rate: limbs are regrown, senses are restored, wounds are closed.
The blood has a sickly sweet scent that makes it addicting.
You almost want to drink it...
Take more of it, my friend. :)
Spend an hour and use up this Blood-filled syringe. Select a Living target within arm's reach. Select up to four Battle Scars on your target to treat.
The treated Battle Scars heals as you finish activating this Effect. If used on a Battle Scar caused by an Unstabilized Injury, that Injury is Stabilized.
