Upon a signal, the user chooses a target, and for the entire duration, the injury on the target appears to be distorted, until the wound closes up depending on the outcome. (Or if the user is interrupted.)
Exert your Mind and spend 1 minute. Select a Living target within arm's reach. Choose a specific Injury on your target that has not yet been treated with this Effect and roll Intellect + Medicine at Difficulty 8.
If you succeed, the Injury is reduced in Severity by your Outcome, unless it had Severity 4 or higher, in which case its Severity remains the same. 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.
Minerva focuses for a moment, and then, between one frame of the universe and the next, her location has changed. She's left in a new location.
The young girl is able to reflexively decide on her inertia, instinctively making it relative to her landing site. She can do this even without exerting her mind.
Spend an Action or Reaction. Select a Location which is at most 60 feet away horizontally or 15 feet away vertically. If you have activated this Effect 10 times it the last minute, you must Exert your Mind. If you are using this Effect as a Reaction, you must travel at least 10 feet.
You jump to the chosen location. If jumping blind or landing precariously, must roll Dexterity + Athletics to land safely. You will never take fall Damage from successfully landing a jump made with this Effect.
You may opt to trade your free movement for a Super Leap if you are jumping less than 50 feet or if you are closing a gap to an opponent and spend your Action on an attack.
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.
Instead of physically passing through the air, you are teleported directly to your destination. You may hop to the other side of walls or escape grapples but can travel no farther than 3 feet when doing so.
When you use this Effect as a Reaction to dodge, if you Exert your Mind to activate the Effect, you do not need to roll; your dodge is automatically successful.
Placing one of her heart pendants between her palms, Sage focuses through it on curing herself or another person of disease, poison, and toxin. Tiny black lines move from it along Sage's skin or through the air to whoever she's healing, and gather into any visible sign of what she is cleansing or disappear into the skin if it's not visible. The opaque shadowsmoke conceals any wounds from sight and lets her waking dream awareness reverse the damage that was done. Once she lets go of the pendant, the shadowsmoke turns into tiny black sandlike grains that fall away from the target's body or rises out of their skin and also falls as sand. It then shrinks and fades away.
Sage's healing abilities result from a variety of dream sand (a Sandman related metaphor, or perhaps what inspired stories of the Sandman). She can manifest this from her mind, as part of it is always dreaming even when she isn't aware of it. Visibly, it is often more like smoke when in contact with air, but when either shadowsmoke or sand grains fade, they return harmlessly to the same dream reality Sage derives all her abilities from. If she can dream of healing someone, she can learn to do it in the waking world.
Exert your Mind and spend 15 minutes. Select a Living target within arm's reach. You must actively and obviously use a gold heart pendant to activate this Effect.

The Vampire is able to turn one of their victims into a lesser vampire, a pale shadow of a full creature of the night but useful nonetheless. Having drained and killed their target, the Vampire performs a brief ritualistic bloodletting, wherein they spill their own blood into the target's mouth, forcing them to drink, and bonding them together as child and sire.
Shortly afterwards, the fledgling vampire will rise from death, hungry for blood and eager to serve.
