When the user touches a key of some sort, an appropriate keyhole will form in the middle of their chest, right above the heart. Putting the key in and turning it will create an opaque black opening around where the keyhole was. After reaching into the opening to store or retrieve an item, the hole closes, the key turns back and will fall out.
The name only refers to the place of the stash, it's not actually part of the body. It's more of an extension of your mind, death will result in dropping all stored items at once. Time does not move inside the stash, items will leave in the *exact* condition they entered. The key used to open the stash doesn't need to be an actual key, just something whose primary purpose is opening locks, a key card for example.
Spend a Quick Action. You must actively and obviously use some sort of key to activate this Effect.
You may withdraw an item from your stash, or add an item that is within arm’s reach to your stash. You may only stash targets which are in your possession, grappled, or otherwise controlled by you.

You cannot issue another suggestion to the target until 10 minutes after they have completed the first command or 10 minutes after a failure.
The target is unaware that they are under supernatural influence and feel they are acting of their own free will. If you fail, they realize that you were attempting to influence them supernaturally with your command.
Your command can be an order to take an immediate Action. You cannot order a target to "do nothing," and they are free to take other Actions as they fulfill your request. Your command cannot be obviously self-destructive. The Effect ends if following your command would cause a target to cross one of their Limits in a way that would necessitate a Trauma roll.

The priest's miracles expand into the treatment and curing of poisons and diseases. To do so, they require a ceremonial dedication (or often re-dedication) to the service of their god, during which the priest and the patient pray together and perform ritualistic bloodletting.

This witch is a cruel and vengeful creature who works her vile arts against those she deems worthy of punishment. All she must do is point. A flash of green lightning strikes her victim and disappears. Immediately, or upon the completion of some condition, if the witch chooses, the victim's body warps and shifts into a gross mockery of its former self. Whether she's giving someone the head of a donkey or stealing their voice, the witch's enemies always get what is coming to them.
