The Wailing Hear No Aoibheall

The power to temporarily transform into Cacophony.
Used by BETH☠️METAL, Created by lesbianspacepirate.
(While you are Cacophony, you are obviously transformed and unusual. You must actively and obviously be using a musical instrument.)

You perform a mourning ballard for the departed, and your despair is monstrous. Until the song is over, you move as the shadowy figure of the banshee, thrashing and howling, inconsolable with grief.


Exert your Mind and spend a Quick Action. This Effect cannot be used unless another contractor on the mission has died. You must actively and obviously use a musical instrument to activate this Effect. You must make a Trauma roll when you use this Effect. Its Difficulty cannot be reduced by any means.

You transform into Cacophony for 3 minutes. You have access to all of your Powers while you are Cacophony, and you can use your equipment. Your Battle Scars, Injuries, and physical Liabilities are carried over between forms. Reverting from your Alternate Form cannot cause your existing Injuries to kill you. Instead, you remain Incapacitated.

While transformed, your Brawn is increased by 1, your Dexterity is increased by 1, and your Charisma is increased by 1. You do not suffer any Stress while transformed.

Your alternate form renders you unable to speak any human language and incapable of fine object manipulation. You can only hold or grasp objects in a crude, clumsy way.

  • Attribute bonuses from multiple sources do not stack. Instead the highest bonus is used.
