A dark ooze leaks out of your body and covers it. At first the form is amorphous but as anyone looks at it, it gives their mind enough details to fill in the rest as a terrifying conglomeration of what they fear. It takes on features of all the fears of everyone who witnesses it
Exert your Mind and spend a Quick Action. Whenever you fail or botch a Trauma or Self-Control roll, you must activate this Effect.
You transform into The Boogeyman for 3 minutes. You have access to all of your Powers while you are The Boogeyman, and you can use your equipment. Your Battle Scars, Injuries, and physical Liabilities are carried over between forms. Reverting from your Alternate Form cannot cause your existing Injuries to kill you. Instead, you remain Incapacitated.
While transformed, your Brawn is increased by 1 and your Dexterity is increased by 1. Your Stress is reduced by 2.
Your alternate form is its own deadly weapon. Unarmed attacks made in your alternate form deal +3 Weapon Damage (instead of the typical -1).
Anyone who witnesses you during this Effect's activation or for its duration will almost certainly be disturbed to see The form is creepy and just by looking at it causes the hairs on the back of your neck to stand on end.
While transformed, you automatically fail any Mind roll to resist an impulse and suffer -3 dice on all other Mind rolls.
Time acts in funny ways at times, but the caveman has learned how to manipulate one particular nicety thanks to his extensive experience with bonds. Namely, with all these new-fangled doors, keys, and various other means of shutting powerful people away from the world, it all exists either at a state of open or unopened, but when you look at it through the lens of someone who exists partly out of time. The moment where it was opened always exists, and the caveman can restore it to that state with a little focus by reconnecting that object to that moment. Ensuring that never again will he be bound by restraints or blocked by a door.
Exert your Mind and spend an Action. Select a door, lock, or locked target within arm's reach. This can be used on Alien technology. You must actively and obviously use A timepiece to activate this Effect.

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.
If your Outcome is greater than the Severity of the Injury you were attempting to treat, you may apply any excess Outcome to other Injuries on the same patient.
The object animates by verbally crafting lines from a story about what the object is destined to do when animated. As if the narrator in a book utilizes exposition to predicate the actions of a given object.
This power is caused by an influx of meta particles that impart a desire to exist on an inanimate object. Only those that speak with absolute confidence and in the correct tonal cadence in the moment of choosing can impart such a desire. This is known as "Causal Diction". Causal, meaning "involving causation or a cause : marked by cause and effect" and Diction, meaning "a choice of words especially with regard to correctness, clearness, or effectiveness". Sometimes, to those who have merely witnessed this phenomenon, it is referred to as "The Voice of All Things". Since it appears as though the user audibly commands life into that which does not possess it. Allowing objects to move and act freely, and thus, granting them a "voice" of their own.
