Charlatans
“Unsettling are the days in which everyone is an expert.”
― Criss Jami
Nowadays you can't go a day without some phony prophet trying to peddle their wares to you.
Driven by the increased interest in the supernatural, charlatans from palm readers to televangelists are everywhere. And while the vast majority of witches, psychics, magicians, hypnotists, cures, potions, faith healers, and clairvoyants are complete fakes, they do make a living.
As the saying goes, "it's easier for an actor to make it in alternative medicine than Hollywood."
Most people scoff at these clearly-phony supernatural services, yet those same people often buy into at least one scam.
The most dangerous charlatans are the self-styled monster hunters who carry a mall-ninja arsenal and guns with silver bullets. Most have never encountered anything supernatural and do absolutely nothing besides burn some sage and patrol the area for a night or two. Even so, those who are superstitious, fearful, or desperate enough will hire them to solve the problems they simply don't understand. In some cases with disastrous results.
For Contractors, charlatans are red herrings and obstacles. Clumsy fakes that conjure a smokescreen of misinformation and escalate the situations they're in.

Single Tick Impact
Way of the Clock Breaking Hand
Litia thickens time around her hands to stop incoming bullets in their tracks or disperses it, allowing her to accelerate her movements even further and like the tip of a spear deliver a singular blow capable of smashing through bodies and shattering time alike.
Creating a temporal boom, similar to a sonic boom, by manipulating the impermanence weave like Litia does, will inevitably harm the stability of the surrounding universe, at least for a while. Time moves erratically, sparks burning up unusually fast, leaves falling impossibly slow and clocks ticking backwards once in a while. Nothing you would notice at first glance, but it adds up...
