Eva imbues a parasite within her body and proliferates it to reach a critical mass. Doing so includes extracting the parasites from herself and readministering them in specific locations.
Exert your Mind and spend 30 minutes. You may only target yourself. The target can easily Resist.
You may add one augmentation to your target. Each augmentation counts as a Battle Scar and can have exactly one of the following Effects:
The augmentations you provide are not outwardly visible nor obvious.
You may end this Effect prematurely as a Free Action.
Anyone who witnesses you during this Effect's activation will almost certainly be disturbed to see parasite treatment.
During the time of establishing an augmentation, the target's body cycles through minor animal features that fit what the augmentation is about. Features of different animals fade into place and then out, until none show at all at the end but the concept of them is firmly established in their mind. Examples include claws, talons, teeth, beaks, etc for Maws and Claws; scales, toughened skin, thick hide, etc for Armor; and digitigrade legs, paws, hooves, etc for Zippy.
Sometimes the augmentation ends up a bit more than the animal features may suggest, such as with Adaptation augmentations. Key being that even though gills may be a physical representation of breathing in the target environment, the Adaptation may extend to not needing to breathe if the target environment contains toxic gasses. Perhaps they take in oxygen through the skin as a jellyfish does underwater, but in the air.
Some augmentations are slightly broader, combining pwca magic with the abilities beyond normal animals. Not just the ability to record and playback visual and audial input, but also to finally being able to manifest a pouch. Animal examples for the recording are elephants and crows, and any other animal known for acute memories. For the pouch, kangaroos, koalas, and seahorses, that sort of thing.
When accessing the pouch, it appears similar to Sarah's Stash power Rabbit Hole. An almost cartoony black circle floating an inch from her body, which she reaches into to store and retrieve items. As a trauma based magical Augmentation, this is limited by the size of her body but doesn't show on x-rays and similar viewing technology.
Using the same concept of resonance fields as the Morphic Resonance gift, I tap into the target's potential animal traits by connecting to different animals and cycling through them until the target's best affinity for the intended augmentation is found. Once found, the appropriate traits of that animal recede into their mind and stay there for as long as they take to stabilize. The field itself then takes that mental imprint and maintains a stable effect on the target.
In some cases, the field combines with pwca magic to enhance capabilities further.

The user flips through the pages of the ledger and motions towards the head, chest, and shoulders of a target with three fingers-- allowing them to briefly connect, manipulate, and 'weave' their soul. Tangible augmentations such as implanted tools or pouches appear in the form of either physiological changes stemming from the shaping of the soul, or spiritual manifestations of the implanted device.
