Growth "WE HUNGER"
The monster tears a limb off its most recent victim, devouring it within the toothy maw at the centre of its tencled face. It's human body shudders, and several more eel like tendrils shoot from its horrific face.
Exert your Mind (unless the flesh is extremly fresh and has been killed within the last 3 hours) and spend an Action. You must use up 20Lbs worth of flesh in order to activate this Effect.
You gain an additional limb that functions as a standard human arm and hand. Lasts two hours.
Each additional limb you posses can take one Quick Action per Round without incurring a -2 dice penalty to your main Action. Any Battle Scars that affect or remove your additional limb will heal in a single week.
Your extra appendage can stretch to reach an additional 30 feet.
You may dedicate your extra Quick Action to contest any attempt to escape your Grapples. If you do so, you roll your full dice pool to contest and retain your Action.
You may turn this Effect on and off at will during its duration.
Your extra appendage is not connected to your nervous or circulatory systems, and you will not take damage if it is hit by an attack or destroyed.
Anyone who witnesses you during this Effect's activation or for its duration will almost certainly be disturbed to see you eat and absorb the flesh, only for it to shoot out of your face forming a horrific pseudopod.
Possession of this Power grants the following Trauma at all times: Ambush Predator: You are an ambush predator, your instincts beg you to act when you can. (Each time you are alone with a living creature, roll self control to not start attacking creature with the goal of consuming it.).
Your Extra Appendage is incapable of fine object manipulation.
- You may stretch or retract your limbs once per Round on your Initiative.
- You may only switch this Effect on or off once per Round on your initiative as a Free Action.
- When narrating disturbing content, be cognizant of your group's tone and accommodating to those who would like to "fast forward" through the description.

Charlatans
“Unsettling are the days in which everyone is an expert.”
― Criss Jami
Nowadays you can't go a day without some phony prophet trying to peddle their wares to you.
Driven by the increased interest in the supernatural, charlatans from palm readers to televangelists are everywhere. And while the vast majority of witches, psychics, magicians, hypnotists, cures, potions, faith healers, and clairvoyants are complete fakes, they do make a living.
As the saying goes, "it's easier for an actor to make it in alternative medicine than Hollywood."
Most people scoff at these clearly-phony supernatural services, yet those same people often buy into at least one scam.
The most dangerous charlatans are the self-styled monster hunters who carry a mall-ninja arsenal and guns with silver bullets. Most have never encountered anything supernatural and do absolutely nothing besides burn some sage and patrol the area for a night or two. Even so, those who are superstitious, fearful, or desperate enough will hire them to solve the problems they simply don't understand. In some cases with disastrous results.
For Contractors, charlatans are red herrings and obstacles. Clumsy fakes that conjure a smokescreen of misinformation and escalate the situations they're in.
