Your target rises as an Animate being. The raised creature is totally mindless, with no memory of its past life or hint of its old personality. They cannot communicate. They will follow any command you speak.
The creature lasts for eight hours or until it dies again. It is revived at full health. Any Injuries it had in life are not accounted for when determining its penalties or progression towards re-death, though they may affect its ability to perform certain actions at GM's discretion.
Raised creatures have their Abilities set to the same that they were in life. Their Charisma and Intellect are set to 1, but their Dexterity, Brawn and Perception are the same as they had in life. A raised creature cannot use any Effects.

Similar to his paralysis induction, Laz extends a hand and emits a cloud of nanites, appearing to normal human vision as dust motes, toward a target. These are more aggressive, however. Upon entering the target's system, they assault the mind, manipulating neurochemical receptors to induce extreme stress and guilt for any harmful actions. If they affect the target strongly enough, a permanent, pervasive aversion to harming others may result.
The doctor has now, against Eliza's advisement, altered this protocol to draw from his own traumatic experiences and intensify the assault. She will attempt to filter, in realtime, any backlash from this, but removing the firewall between the target's experiences and his own has created a chance to plunge the doctor into the same scarring effects his target is feeling.

Cleatus takes a good look at the lock in question as if pondering some invisible angles on it, then.

Lucy is a great sneak, and a better pocket, but sometimes fortune isn’t completely in her favor. In times like these, a daring escape is necessary.

The whole process takes about fifteen minutes, after which the patient must drink the entire mixture. They are immediately cured.
The proper preparation varies from person to person, so a single batch cannot be used to treat multiple people.
