Unbounded "As now I have command of my mortality"
If the attacker wishes to kill the user then they must bargain with death through their attacks to truly kill this person.

Gen-Wyld: Beyond Natural
On March 14, 2018, a little-known company named Gen-Wyld announced FDA approval for a groundbreaking procedure to enhance a patient’s primary and secondary sexual characteristics using gene therapy. The company was an overnight success.
Shortly thereafter, they introduced a suite of gene-altering body modification procedures that allowed patients to make dramatic aesthetic changes to their bodies by gene-splicing “non-human” anatomy. Those daring (and wealthy) enough can now add cuttlefish pigmentation to their skin, sport a pair of fox ears, and even add a functional tail. While rare, these so-called “modders” draw plenty of hate from conservative communities.
Thanks to their revolutionary procedures, Gen-Wyld is now a household name. Norman Carlson, Gen-Wyld’s chief evangelist, recently announced the company is in the trial phase for a groundbreaking treatment for diabetes.
Yet despite their success, a shroud of secrecy surrounds Gen-Wyld. Their no-patent policy obscures the secrets of their procedures from the public eye. Financial experts claim that Gen-Wyld is run less like a traditional business and more like an NGO with some specific, unknown objective.
Some claim that they will not stop until humanity has been reduced to monstrous slaves and that Gen-Wyld’s board of directors will install themselves as inhuman overlords of the new world order.
However, until the true secrets behind Gen-Wyld are discovered, the genetic biotech firm will continue to grow, develop, and progress its grand designs.

False winter
“Come pry it from my cold dead hands…”
My body melts away leaving my equipment and a small Ice crystal the size of someone’s fist. There is an inscription on the crystal. “Soak me in a bathtub of water so that I may be whole once again.” When placed in a correct size tub of water (fresh or salt) I will absorb all the water and use it to reform my body around the crystal.
You gain the following benefits at all times.
If you would take an Injury that would kill you, you don’t die. Instead, you survive in an Incapacitated state. Your body leaves behind a token. You remain incapacitated until the following ritual is performed with the token: Ice crystal that needs to be soaked in a bathtub worth of water..
While Incapacitated, your only weakness is burning my body for a minute, and if you take Damage from it, you will die. Damage from other sources will still be dealt and can cause Battle Scars, but will only kill you if your body is destroyed completely. If your weakness is not immediately obvious, attackers may roll to discover it. 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.
The Philospher’s Stone
“The beast Unleashed”
When Harry died, his body became the site of a grotesque alchemical transformation. The foreign rituals performed on him activated the Philosopher’s Stone embedded within his chest, altering it in ways no one could predict. The red, waxy substance of the Stone, seemingly alive, reacts violently to Harry’s death, weaving itself through his body like threads of molten steel.
An hour after his death, the Stone begins to reconstruct his shattered form. Muscles knit themselves together, bones snap back into place, and veins reconnect with a sickening precision as the waxy material courses through his system. Slowly, his heart begins to pump once more, its rhythmic beat reigniting his body with unnatural vitality.
While Harry is incapacitated, his body lies in a fragile limbo, resisting further decay or failure. Yet, the Philosopher’s Stone anchors him to life with a single fatal flaw—his heart remains his sole vulnerability. If crushed or damaged during this liminal state, the alchemical magic will fail, leaving him beyond salvation.
When Harry rises, the injuries that killed him are gone, replaced by scars that bear the marks of his unnatural revival. The Philosopher’s Stone continues its silent work within him, a constant reminder that his survival is as much a curse as it is a miracle. Harry is no longer simply alive—he is alchemy incarnate, defying death itself, but tethered to a fragile and dangerous balance.
You gain the following benefits at all times.
If you would take an Injury that would kill you, you don’t die. Instead, you survive in an Incapacitated state. This state lasts for the next hour, at which point you fully return to life. Unstabilized Injuries do not degrade while you are Incapacitated
While Incapacitated, your only weakness is Crushing my heart, and if you take Damage from it, you will die. Damage from other sources will still be dealt and can cause Battle Scars, but will only kill you if your body is destroyed completely. If your weakness is not immediately obvious, attackers may roll to discover it. 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.
Preston the White
When Preston dies, if he was wearing an amulet, his body magically disappears, leaving only his clothes. If anyone ever holds the amulet and says "Preston" 3 times in a row, he returns. After returning, Preston prefers wearing lighter colors and being more serious and objective-oriented.
Typically, Preston wears a large amulet inscribed with "Say Preston 3 times to unlock this amulet's power."
You gain the following benefits at all times. You must actively and obviously be using an amulet to gain the benefits of this Effect.
If you would take an Injury that would kill you, you don’t die. Your body disappears and you leave The amulet you are wearing, now glowing about as much as a glowstick. In order to bring you back, someone must perform a simple ritual using it during a Downtime. You return fully healed of all Injuries.
