Edgar seems to shrug off wounds easily, blood clots almost immediately, though deep wounds will remain for some time.
This process is hindered if the wounds inflicted by Acid - while Edgar's scabrous, dragon-infused flesh is resistant to flames, Acid will dissolve it beyond recovery
After swimming within the flesh of the Provider, Edgar's healing abilities have been wildly enhanced - however, the wounds itch, crawl, & visibly form tumors while healing: This can be maddening to the Ghoul, who will sometimes succumb to a desire to gnaw at the regenerating flesh, creating terrible scars.

Eric grabs one of his many different vials that are on his belt, he then breaks the seal by squeezing the vial until it shatters, releasing the contents inside, the toxic substance seems to move and flow as though following his will.

When Selma uses this Gift, the air around her drops a few degrees, a subtle shiver brushing against anyone nearby. She leans close, her voice barely more than a breath, whispering into the target’s ear. As she speaks, a faint, ghostly glow — like moonlight caught in mist — gathers at the wound, shrinking it until it vanishes entirely, leaving nothing but untouched skin behind.
Selma's healing is not loud, not explosive, but intimate — a communion between the dying and the dead-yet-walking. She does not command flesh to mend; she convinces it, softly, to forget its pain. Her words are stitched with a magic older than hope, with a certainty that death is neither enemy nor end, but a passage. "Whisper of Life" is not a shout against mortality — it is a secret, a hush passed between bodies that are trying to survive just a little longer.
Exert your Mind and spend 1 minute. Select a Living target within arm's reach. Choose a specific Injury on your target that has not yet been treated with this Effect and roll Intellect + Medicine at Difficulty 6.

When a sledgehammer used to collapse small buildings is applied to bones, its namesake crackling effect is a common side effect.
Hardly supernatural in any observer's eyes but the beholder's, it's easy enough to mistake simply hitting something so much harder than in reality. That's not to say one isn't; but to send integral parts of buildings flying out with a hand tool over machines takes more than a bit of muscle mass. It is no surprise this same power can be applied to less-than-material targets.
