The Hemomancer’s ritual, brutal in nature, uses the heart of a once-living creature as its catalyst. Her skin thrums with energy as she bends her own freshly spilled blood through the muscle until she is changed completely.
She shifts into a quivering pile of ichor, entrails and organs rolling and gripping at the ground as it begins to shamble forward. A bloody appendage squirms its way out of the center, lashing wildly at the nearest foe...
Terrifying as it is, the creature can still heal just as effectively... If only a patient would only stop squirming to accept the help.

You raise the bracelet up in front of yourself and run your fingers over the beads. Your body shimmers with a gentle blue discoloration, silently shifting your appearance to create a perfect illusion from head to toe.
Kayleigh Jones created this artifact from the depths of her soul in order to protect both her friends and herself from the curious eyes of the real world.

Jenn reaches into some pocket or other location that probably shouldn't fit a whole knife in it (let's be honest - usually it's her cleavage) and pulls out up to three knives to immediately start juggling with. She usually winks, too, but mostly observers can't tell through her cool shades.
