Cassiopeia gestures over the target and whispers or speaks of their new identity. The target starts to blur, and in the blink of an eye it seems to have transformed.
On the name:
Originally Cassiopeia wanted to call this gift “Loki’s Middle Finger” but she figures it’d be too inappropriate, especially if she happens to work with a 16 year old again. It would be hilarious if the gesture for this gift’s activation was just Cassiopeia flipping the bird. The new name has a lot of L’s; surely no one would notice if you took one.
On Loki:
Cassiopeia usually focuses on Greek mythology (where all the gay people are), but that doesn’t make other areas any less interesting to study. If she were a god, she too would spend her days doing silly things simply because she’d be bored out of her mind otherwise.
On usage:
She’s not sure what she wants to use this for yet, but eventually she’ll be able to make fake ID cards or "valuable" items. Hopefully. On paper it sounded very cool, but it also banks on her creativity as always.
On sound and smell:
[Insert toilet joke here] But in all seriousness, it would be useful to disguise something in order to conceal it. She just hopes she won’t forget what she puts this illusion on; it would be a shame if she turned her necklace into grass and lost it in the backyard.
Exert your Mind and spend an Action. Select a target within arm's reach. Choose an illusion to generate, which can be no larger than a briefcase.
The chosen illusion is generated at your target, and it will remain in place for the next minute or you choose to end it. It can be perceived by people through their taste, touch, hearing, smell, and sight. The illusion cannot be used as an attack. You cannot make an exact replica of an existing Animate being or Object.
Anyone who struggles against the illusion hard enough to break a window or who would be damaged by the illusion (or who would be able to perceive it significantly through a sense it cannot fool) realizes it is an illusion, and the entire effect will be ended for all targets.
The illusion will remain fixed to its initial target, and can only change locations if the initial target is mobile in some way. It may have moving parts and engage in simple, predetermined movements but cannot perform anything complex or interactive unless you maintain Concentration and “puppeteer” it.
Robin is dead. Their body is powered by something from beyond this world, and that has its benefits... They are much hardier, and resistant to normal means of killing.

Your Stress from Injuries is reduced to 0. Does not reduce Stress from Mind Damage.
Prismatic Reforge harnesses crystal light's infinite potential to break down and reorganize matter, fabricating objects from seemingly nothing. By channeling her vast intellect and source energy, Jessica manipulates reality at a fundamental level. When activated, impossible colors writhe from her fingertips and eyes, forming a corona discharge of swirling hues that break down nearby matter into gathering light particles. These ethereal strands weave through the air, coalescing into the desired object as reality bends to her will. The process is accompanied by an unsettling hum that resonates from everywhere and nowhere. While mesmerizing, crystal light manifestations can be psychologically damaging, inducing seizures, triggering hallucinations, and instilling profound feelings of dread and persecution in witnesses.
Activation of the Radiant Reforge triggers the "Monsters" limit, suffusing the area with an otherworldly, prismatic glow that unsettles the mind and warps perception and reality, evoking the cosmic horror of colors beyond mortal perception: for Jessica's character concept, crystalline light is an independent alien intelligence (Inspired by "The Color of Madness" from Darkest Dungeon, Remiel from "Neon Genesis Evangelion", and "The Colour Out of Space" by H.P. Lovecraft)

Anyone who witnesses you during this Effect's activation or for its duration will almost certainly be disturbed to see your eyes glow with unearthly light as your skin ripples with shifting, iridescent patterns. The air distorts around you, causing momentary hallucinations of impossible geometries. Objects appear to melt and reform in ways that defy natural laws, instilling a deep, instinctual dread in observers (triggers ''Monsters''; - see Extended Description).

The Thief casts a container's worth of fine powder into the air. The particulates are drawn to any sort of object that is designed to detect people, including tripwires, security cameras, detection lasers, heat sensors, etc. The powder will not trigger these devices or interfere with their operation, but it does reveal their presence to the Thief.
The cloud drifts and swirls, subtly following the Thief for a minute.

Doc puts his hands on you and begins to mutter to himself in french. The effect is instant and horrible. You begin to remember all of the sins of your past, all the ways that you've wronged those who loved you. All of the terrible, evil things you've done on these contracts in order to survive. Doc seems to be in the grips of similar memories, tears running down his chin and dripping onto his hands that are pressed tightly against you. At the point where your mind feels like it's about to break, it's over. Just as quickly as it began. You feel your wounds begin to close.
Exert your Mind and spend 1 minute. Select a Living target within arm's reach. You must make a Trauma roll when you use this Effect. Its Difficulty cannot be reduced by any means. If you fail or Botch, you receive one Mind Damage and a new Trauma. Your target must make a Trauma roll to reap the benefits of this Effect. They may choose to Resist the Effect and not make the roll. Choose a specific Injury on your target that has not yet been treated with this Effect and roll Charisma + Medicine at Difficulty 6.
If you succeed, the Injury is reduced in Severity by your Outcome. 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.
The mystic channels and communes directly with another person's spirit, allowing the two of them to freely exchange both physical and mental wounds between each other.

The doctor is a master at surgical transplantation. As long as they have a donor part, they can replace any permanent, lingering battle scars on their patient. Of course, the transplanted part doesn't always match, and the patient must be careful to follow the doctor's aftercare orders, or the replacement will be rejected.
Exert your Mind and spend a minute. Select a Living target within arm's reach. You must use up a donor body part matching the injured area in order to activate this Effect. Select a Battle Scar on your target to treat.
The treated Battle Scar heals as you finish activating this Effect. If used on a Battle Scar caused by an Unstabilized Injury, that Injury is Stabilized.
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. Lasts until the end of their next Contract or 1 month for non-Contractors.
Healing a Battle Scar in this way leaves behind a mismatched replacement on the target which cannot be healed.
