The phoenix is an everlasting entity, never truly dead. Each aspect of it, however, returns for a purpose. For Billy Chance, it's to right the wrong that slew him.
Though, if the death blow is dealt by an innocent person, then that vengeance could never be placed.
You gain the following benefits at all times.
If you would take an Injury that would kill you, you don’t die. Instead, you survive in an Incapacitated state. This state lasts for the next hour, at which point you fully return to life.
While Incapacitated, your only weakness is being hurt by an innocent person, and if you take damage from it, you will die. Damage from other sources will still be dealt and can cause Battle Scars, but will never kill you. If your weakness is not immediately intuitive or obvious, attackers may be able to make some sort of knowledge roll to discover it, at GMs discretion. After you return, the Injury that would have killed you, as well as any Injuries sustained while Incapacitated, are healed. Battle scars obtained during this time remain.
Possession of this Power grants the following Trauma at all times: Flashes of Death: When an Injury would Incapacitate you, you must make a Trauma roll as flashbacks of prior deaths come to you..
While cooking, Pen uses her nails to pierce the base of her palm and allows a drop of her blood to join with whatever she's making, focusing her mind on people that have hurt her in the past and using that physical pain, as well as a simple incantation, to fuel her intent.
A simple ritual that Pen learned which causes angry spirits of the target's ancestors to immediately begin to haunt and affect the target. Her blood ties her to all of her ancestors by her DNA, and upon consumption by a target mingles with theirs to cause anyone in their family tree that might be angry with them to make that anger known. Most of the time, this is a spurned relative who died relatively recently - however the curse goes as far back as it needs to find an angry spirit. If you go far back enough, everyone has a connection to someone that died bitter and alone.

This Effect cannot be used unless Pen prepared the food herself. Roll Charisma + Occult at Difficulty 6. Choose any number of the following symptoms:
The trap looks like food. Only those who have seen this trap before can identify it as a trap. Anyone who is aware of the trap may intuitively avoid, trigger, or destroy it.
Any Living target within within arm's reach that uses the trap as food will trigger it. Your target may resist by rolling Body at Difficulty 8.
When the trap is triggered, the target is afflicted with a Condition that causes the chosen symptoms. Symptoms begin to appear immediately, and will remain and continue to worsen until the affliction is cured. The affliction is not contagious and will not spread to others.
The affliction is not treatable by modern medicine. It may be diagnosed by rolling Intellect + Occult at Difficulty 6, and can be cured by bloodletting into a ritual circle while a priest performs an exorcism.
Any Scars, Traumas, or Injuries caused by your symptoms cannot be healed until the underlying Condition is cured.
You may only use this Effect once per day.
If you do not have a sacrificial Injury when you activate this Effect, take a new Severity-1 Injury.
