Cassiopeia tears or destroys the symbol of Horkos drawn upon it, summoning the authority of the God of Oaths to watch over the participants. The target must place their finger on any symbol of Horkos to accept Horkos' presidence over the consequences of their actions.
On promises:
Cassiopeia has been tricked many times in this life, and while her own stupidity could be brought into the argument, at the end of the day she was not the one to break her promises or take more than what she bargained for. If only the world respected vows as much as she did. Hoping never worked, though, has it? How unfortunate. How pitiful. She'll change this soon enough. She hates liars.
On Horkos:
A lesser Greek god, but dangerous nonetheless. Cassiopeia doesn't understand why people find the need to regulate themselves under the notion that some greater being is watching them, but if that's what it takes for people to play fair, then so be it. She'll gladly play into the enforcement of all the words so carelessly strewn into the wind. Be careful what you wish for.
On the symbol:
Making all these magical symbols to represent different gods and powers have finally come in handy!
You must use up any item with the symbol of Horkos (designed by Cassiopeia) in order to activate this Effect.
You may make an oath with a Sapient target. Communicate the oath's terms to the target, including the requirements and penalties for each participant. If all agree to the terms, you must Exert your Mind and all participants must place a finger upon a symbol of Horkos (designed by Cassiopeia) to seal the deal.
Record the oath as a Condition. If a party breaks the oath, the Condition ends and they suffer the oath's penalty.
When crafting your oath, you may incorporate any of the following penalties:
The target cannot be compelled to agree via a direct threat of violence, another Effect, or another oath. If you would like to use clever wording to mislead the target, you must succeed a contested Intellect + (Culture or Influence) roll.
When crafting your oath, you may opt to enforce compliance. If you do, any participant that wishes to break the deal must take 3 Mind damage and succeed a Self-Control roll. They may attempt once per day.
The target may be at any range, but you must still be able to communicate the terms to them, and they must be able to place a finger upon a symbol of Horkos (designed by Cassiopeia).
Possession of this Power grants the following Trauma at all times: Iron Grip: Vows are everything to you. Whenever you find out someone has broken a promise to you, roll Self-Control to avoid lashing out at them or taking out your anger on nearby objects.
A fire burns in their eyes and their back busts in a splash of burning flesh which expands out and glows on ends with mystical fire. The blood hardens and strings of flesh stat to weave their way to the form bloodied wings and a burning depiction of Autumn leaves and Orange Lilies. With their body primed, it warps in the direction of the leap before the body is sent forward, leaving a cascade of burning petals and fallen leaves upon their path. As the blood and ichor settle, there is a moment of temporal implosion: a visage of a monstrous being stretched abnormally for a brief moment, and the smell of burning flesh and fading fire is left along the path travelled

You may activate this Effect while in free-fall, as long as your target Location is a surface on which you can land. You are immune to fall damage.
Anyone who witnesses you during this Effect's activation will almost certainly be disturbed to see their body warps in the direction of the leap before the body is sent forward, leaving a cascade of burning petals and fallen leaves upon their path. As the blood and ichor settle, there is a moment of temporal implosion: a visage of a monstrous being stretched abnormally for a brief moment and the smells of burning flesh and vegetation is left along the path travelled.
Possession of this Power grants the following Trauma at all times: ClosedEnclosed Personality: You have trouble with being openly honest and generally find it much easier and safer to avoid the topic entirely. Any time you are asked about yourself, or are offering information about yourself, you must succeed a Self-Control roll in order to tell the truth. If you are ever caught in a lie, you must Exert your Mind in order to come clean. Off: (Anti-Social).
After a brief conversation, Chip's able to become best of friends with anyone-for a while. He can adapt his personal 'persona' and play off of the behaviors and subconscious tells of the target, by the end of the conversation, they'd do anything for each other.
Chip doesn't 'play roles', he lives them, lacking any true sense of self. Most likely, it's DID or something similiar.

If you succeed, for the next three hours, affected targets will do things they otherwise wouldn’t have done, inspired by Loyal Friendship. They will not necessarily display their emotions in an obvious way. Your own emotions are also shifted in the same way.
Actions they take will be in keeping with their character and the way they tend to deal with strong emotions. They will be unlikely to change their mind about any actions taken or decisions made until after the Effect ends.

The user shoves a memory card in the camera as they take a picture of the area they plan on blowing up, and a very poorly edited explosion appears in that area, looking cropped and trimmed with a green screen effect. the explosion works as normal, this causes the memory card to burn up and fall out of the camera, no longer useful.
Funnily enough the green screen explosion doesn't make things burn though because it quite literally isn't even real.
Expend a point of Battery and spend an Action. Select a Location no further than 40 feet from you and in your line of sight. You must use up memory card in order to activate this Effect.

Doc puts his hands on you and begins to mutter to himself in french. The effect is instant and horrible. You begin to remember all of the sins of your past, all the ways that you've wronged those who loved you. All of the terrible, evil things you've done on these contracts in order to survive. Doc seems to be in the grips of similar memories, tears running down his chin and dripping onto his hands that are pressed tightly against you. At the point where your mind feels like it's about to break, it's over. Just as quickly as it began. You feel your wounds begin to close.

If you succeed, the Injury is reduced in Severity by your Outcome. If you reduce its Severity to 0, the Injury is fully healed. Otherwise, it is partially healed and will heal the rest of the way at its natural rate.
This counts as a successful Makeshift Stabilization if the Injury was not already Stabilized; any Battle Scars caused by the Injury will remain.
The mutant has gained some control over their genetic instability, allowing them to trigger a mutation at will. When the need arises, their flesh warps and twists, and a new mutation manifests that is suited to whatever obstacle the mutant happens to be facing at the time.

Exert your Mind and spend an Action. All Sapient, Living targets within 50 feet who can perceive you through sight are affected. Roll Charisma + Performance at Difficulty 6. All affected targets may resist by rolling Mind at Difficulty 6.
If you succeed, the targets will keep their full attention focused on you for contested Outcome in Rounds. They will automatically fail any rolls related to noticing anything other than you. If they cannot perceive you through sight for three Rounds, the Effect is broken. The Effect ends early if the target is Injured or violence occurs nearby.
This does not affect the target’s opinion of you or their mood, and they may take any Actions while affected (including attacking), as long as that action centers on you. Fascinated targets cannot Concentrate.
