If you succeed, you possess your target for a number of Contested days equal to the Contested Outcome. The target has no control over their body or actions, though they retain consciousness and will remember anything that occurs during the possession. While the possession is active, the host body will grow two arms giving the host 4, making it very obvious to anyone who sees them that something is not right.
Your original body will be left behind, unconscious, in its same location. You may perceive through your original body's senses by Concentrating. If your original body is touched, you may roll Perception + Alertness to notice. You may spend an Action to end the possession early.
Stats: During the possession, you use the host body’s Body rating, but your own Mind rating. Any rolls you make use the host body’s Brawn, Dexterity, and Perception but your own Charisma, Intellect, and Abilities. You gain the effects of any physical Assets and Liabilities they have. You cannot read the target’s mind or memories.
Gifts: You have access to and can use any of your own Powers which are not intrinsic to your biology or physical body. You cannot access any Powers or other supernatural effects which the target has, unless they are intrinsic to the target’s biology or physical body.
Death: If the host body is killed or destroyed while you are still possessing it, you will die along with it. If the possession ends and your original body was killed, you may make a contested Mind roll against the host. The loser becomes a helpless observer as long as you both inhabit their body.
Eviction: If you attempt to force your host to take actions which would violate one of their Limits or their instinct for self-preservation, they may resist by rolling Mind. If their Outcome is higher than or equal to the contested Outcome, the possession ends and you are evicted from their body. If they fail, you remain in control.
Anyone who witnesses you during this Effect's activation will almost certainly be disturbed to see watch your soul crawl out of your original body into the other one.

Polamedes withdraws some small nanobots from inside his body and lets them crawl to the end of his finger and into his eye. They pull his eyelids apart and crawl under and over his eye physically pushing it out of the way and dislodging it slightly as they do, taking measurements while doing so. After a few seconds they start forcing the eye out of the socket. They haul a still connected eyeball to the location of placement spooling out more and more retina wire as the eye is stretched away. Then the eye is sliced and pressed into position while the retinal connection is severed and coiled around the split eye to form a sort of antenna. The trailing retina cable is slowly reeled back into the eye socket before needing to be manually repositioned by placing the finger back into the empty hole and re-growing the eye with more nanomachines. Slowly pulling thin strands from the body and gluing the burgeoning eye back into place.
