The user says the following: "■... and ■... Bend to my will." Once the words have been said, fires start to appear from the user's hands, and the user can pull the fire back in a bow and arrow pattern. The user can then release the fire, shooting out a flaming arrow that explodes upon impact.
Exert your Mind and spend an Action. Select a Location no further than 40 feet from you and in your line of sight. The area within 25 feet of the chosen Location immediately and obviously becomes imminently dangerous. Roll Intellect + Firearms at Difficulty 6. Targets inside the radius may attempt an appropriate Reaction at GM’s discretion. Finding a physical barrier to use as cover will cut total Damage taken in half (applies after Reaction roll but before Armor).
If the Outcome is positive, your blast hits everything within 25 feet of the chosen Location with Damage equal to your Outcome + 4.
Anyone hit by the blast may roll Body at Difficulty 7 as a Free Action, and reduce their Damage taken by the Outcome.
Any flammable Objects within the radius during the blast will catch fire, and any being who takes at least 4 Damage will catch fire. Starting the Round after they caught fire, flaming targets take 2 Damage per Round until the fire is extinguished.
Anyone who witnesses you during this Effect's activation will almost certainly be disturbed to see reality shifting apart to create the flames.
The cross sucks the soul into it and then produces a silvery projectile, travelling down the user's arm. The user makes a finger gun gesture and their soul exits in the form of a spectral bullet, flying towards the target, if they don't manage to resist the mental assault, their soul swaps places with the user's. The user, expecting the change, is still able to benefit from the target's muscle memory and can remain in their body indefinitely if they get their original body killed.
Notably, the bullet doesn't get stopped by people standing in its way, passing right through them.
So, force the contested roll when either body dies, but gets to bypass the truama and limit pools. That's how this is approved. ~ Poly

If you succeed, you possess your target for a number of minutes equal to the Contested Outcome. You are in full control of the host body’s actions.
Your host’s consciousness will similarly be swapped into your original body, and they will have full control over it until the Effect ends. You may spend an Action to end the possession early.
Stats: During the possession, you use the host body’s Body rating, but your own Mind rating. Any rolls you make use the host body’s Brawn, Dexterity, and Perception but your own Charisma and Intellect. You may use either your own or the host’s Ability ratings, whichever is higher. You gain the effects of any physical Assets and Liabilities they have. You cannot read the target’s mind or memories.
Gifts: You have access to and can use any of your own Powers which are not intrinsic to your biology or physical body. You cannot access any Powers or other supernatural effects which the target has, unless they are intrinsic to the target’s biology or physical body.
Death: If the host body is killed or destroyed while you are still possessing it, you will die along with it. If the possession ends and your original body was killed, you may make a contested Mind roll against the host. The loser becomes a helpless observer as long as you both inhabit their body.
Eviction: If you attempt to force your host to take actions which would violate one of their Limits or their instinct for self-preservation, they may resist by rolling Mind. If their Outcome is higher than or equal to the contested Outcome, the possession ends and you are evicted from their body. Otherwise, they may Exert their Mind to evict you from their body.
Kitty can steal the gifts and strength of others by pulling the supernatural gifts out of them.

A hologram arm appears where Tay's missing limb would be and the circuit board glows brightly. the hologram arm reaches into the computer and then disapears leaving it's code in the system until activation, leaving a shining pink stone behind on the screen
the arm looks very much non human, and mechanical, like the arm Tay lost and the stone left behind is modeled after the artifact that allows time travel. This all works do to special parts of the circuit that try to interact with the arm, but instead as a fail-safe make the holographic arm temporarily. This power merely gives a means to interact with the circuit board to hack a system.

Every hack you make leaves behind a shining pink stone in the system as a personal "calling card" that informs anyone who uses the system that the hack occurred.
The doctor heals severe injuries in minutes using only standard medical supplies. Lacerations seal under the needle and thread, and reset bones can be used shortly after.

You may specify a specific condition that the patient must adhere to. If they break this condition, the treatment is immediately reversed. Record this regimen as a Condition.
