You gain the following benefits as long as you are engaged in unarmed combat. You must actively and obviously be using Gauntlet to gain the benefits of this Effect.

+2 dice to rolls for Attacking, Defending, and Clashing without a weapon. Unarmed attacks do +4 Weapon Damage (instead of -1).

You may Defend against melee, projectile, or firearm Attacks from any range and Clash with those in range of your Attacks. Attacking materials like steel or spikes will not Damage you unless it has an Effect that does so.

You also gain the following effects:

  • Finesse: You may limit the Severity of any Injury you inflict or determine a maximum Wound Level to inflict on the target, including Incapacitated. You may also choose to make this Injury properly or improperly stabilized, or to keep it unstabilized.
  • Flow Like Water: If you win a Clash or successfully prevent an attack by Defending, you may instead redirect the incoming attack to another target within range. If you Defend, the redirected attack uses your positive Outcome after defending, if you Clash it uses the outcome in entirety if you win.

Carver's psychic capabilities allow her to plug into the Noosphere, the collective unconscious. This allows her to sometimes pull random tidbits of information, read intentions, and most crucially, offload portions of her mental strain to every single mind on the planet. Infinitesimally less than a drop in the bucket for everyone else, but it allows Carver to push herself for longer.

She needs to be careful, though. She can't do it for long, or else risk her personality being sucked into the collective unconscious, leaving behind an empty husk of what she was. And that's a one way trip, for now.
