OWL - The Occult Wildlife Landing
The Occult Wildlife Landing (OWL) is a nonprofit organization that advocates for the rights of supernatural creatures to live a life unmolested by humanity’s relentless spread and greed.
While OWL has become the de-facto head of the conservationist movement in the United States, many claim it’s not as innocent as it appears. A number of small, seemingly-disconnected terrorist cells wear the OWL insignia with pride. These groups– which tend to contain a disproportionate number of supernatural creatures and beings– commit high-profile acts of public violence with the intent of furthering OWL’s core objectives. In the past, they’ve blown up oil pipelines, stopped development projects, and even infected congregations of people with mutagenic viruses.
OWL denies any involvement with these so-called “OWL-inspired terrorist organizations” (or OITOs for short). However, many people conflate the two and consider OWL itself to be a terrorist organization.
One thing is for certain: when OWL sends a blast to its followers urging protest, they’re taken seriously.

Revive Routine
To activate this Gift, he simply takes out a plain, everyday-looking ballpoint pen from his pocket. The pen is unremarkable, the kind that can be found in any office supply store, and has a simple blue barrel with a black ink refill.
When Zhang Wei exerts his mind and spends an action to use the "Revive Routine," he clicks the pen's button, producing an audible click that serves as the catalyst for the Gift's effect. He then draws a small, inconspicuous symbol on the target's forehead with the pen. The symbol glows faintly for a moment before fading away, signifying that the ritual is complete.

The Revival of Lazarus
When he had said this, Jesus called in a loud voice, “Lazarus, come out!” - John 11:43
Lazarus's ooze enters the body through the skin's pores filling the bones with spirits from the void, reanimating the body as a eternal replica of the original.

Deathly Raise
Blood is often referred to as the liquid of Life. Well, in this case, it is... Sort of.
Utilizing the blood of a currently living creature, you may resurrect a corpse back to life, filling it with a horrid mockery of what it once was. By drawing a pentagram in blood beneath the corpse and either humming or verbally expressing an unholy prayer, the corpse begins to rise once again under your control...

The Scepter of Ang-Kapal
It is a small price to pay.
The Scepter of Ang-Kapal is a gruesome device fashioned to look like a skeletal arm clutching a glass eye. When used, blood from the person holding is drawn into the eye where it swirls with dark energy. The eye turns to a nearby corpse and shudders, reviving the creature. The creature does not retain any of its memories or personality, but it is absolutely loyal to whoever is holding the scepter.
The Scepter of Ang Kepal has the unfortunate side effect of driving its owner mad.
