When preparing this Power, Julio writes down in paper whatever comes to mind, usually poetic descriptions of what he sees or one-off tales.
Being a writer sucks. Pushing deadlines, the vultures of media, the pressure of expectations. So, to make things easier, the writer pretends everyone around them is a character, that if forced/written enough, will help them.

This rune-marked charm is usually worn as part of some form of jewelry or a talisman hanging from a piece of clothing. when the bearer focuses their will on it, they can release the magic contained therein to shield them from damage by the twisting of fate. The charm slowly begins to corrode with an abnormal blue patina, which accelerates every time damage is prevented, and causes it to crumble to dust when completely corroded. Projectiles oddly veer wide or are fatefully intercepted by the environment. Blows strike at odd angles that glance away, or existing armor simply miraculously outperforms its protective abilities. Whatever the reason this lucky bastard simply doesn't get hurt as they should, and only those who notice the unnatural consumption of the charm can place quite why.
Use up this stainless steel shield charm and spend an Action. Roll 7 dice Difficulty 6, dice penalties do not apply.
If you succeed, you create a barrier around yourself, which absorbs the next Outcome + 4 Damage. The Damage reduction from the barrier is applied before Armor. You may only have 1 active barrier at a time.
The barrier will fall after two hours, or if it absorbs the full amount of Damage.
This Effect is not obvious, and the only sign you are using an Effect is unnatural blue corrosion creeping across the charm over the duration of the shield (accelerating as the shield absorbs damage). If someone suspects that an Effect was used, they must roll Perception + Alertness, Difficulty 8 to pick up on your Tell.

The "Reaper" Assault Helmet is the signature piece of the Future Soldier's arsenal. It has a sleek, design and is made of a mysterious matte-metallic alloy. The wearer's face is exposed normally, but when activated, a blue holographic visor flickers to life in front of the eyes. This HUD contains information about the soldier's ammunition and shield status, but more significantly can detect enemy combatants. Anyone nearby who is holding a weapon is painted with a red dot that follows them in real time. This allows the Future Soldier to fire at painted targets in the dark, detect ambushes lurking around corners, and grants an overall tactical advantage.
