Devonia will place their hand near the target, as a amber, primordial fluid flows from their hand into the target, causing small grows of feathers, horns and fur to grow before aging and withering away afterwards
The target will notably grow older overtime, and with repeated use, will eventually start sporting the same horns, feathers, and fur with enough uses (roughly 10 uses, not set in stone currently)

A gift born of desperation, Vivian took the power granted to heal, found its flaws and turned it into a weapon. With a touch of her hand, Vivian's golden aura flows into the target, an expression of her very will. Whereas before this will was used to encourage healing her will now forces change.
Being a contractor is not an easy life. There is pain, loss and suffering. That being said, despite everything Vivian dedicated herself to giving hope to others despite not really believing it was impossible to improve the world. Her power works by allowing her to, in the simplest explanation, enforce her will on the world around her, through channelling her very essence of being. As such when this most recent contract occurred something shifted. For a moment, she considered not following her ideals. To give in and unleash on the world what it unleashes on her. A traumatic truth to the effects of her 'gifts' and what they are truly capable of. If she gave up the control and ideals she spouts despite not believing them. Perhaps even a punishment to herself, for whilst she wasn't truly traumatised she feels like she should have been. To be the Font of Hope is a powerful responsibility, one that can cause pain if misused.

Carver, with an air of professionalism, listens to her patient speak of their past experiences, and how they affect them in the day to day.
All Carver does is remove the compulsions left by traumatic experiences, allowing her patient control over themselves while tackling their traumas. They'll remember what happened to them, but it will no longer spark the same trauma response.
As long as the mind isn't traumatized *again* shortly afterwards. Otherwise the old connections resurface and it's back to square one, with extra baggage this time around.
All of this works on inhuman, even unliving physiology thanks to Carver's familiarity with the not-quite-human people around her. As long as they have a sentient mind capable of being traumatized, her powers allow her to detangle them.
Exert your Mind to activate. Select a Living or Animate target within arm's reach. Over the course of one day, your patient must communicate with you and reveal at least one of their Traumas to you, including the details of those Traumas and the circumstances of how they were acquired.
