This power manifests as a series of intricate, eldritch patterns etched into the skin, appearing as a blend of arcane symbols and feral markings. The thin, sinuous lines resemble tattoos, stretching across the chest and back, pulsating faintly with an otherworldly energy. These markings are not mere decoration; they serve as catalysts, enhancing the user's abilities and fortitude. When touched, these markings emit a tingling sensation, a reminder of the power coursing beneath the surface.

Whenever Schmekelmeister uses the NO TAKE BACKSIES (inator), a horde of nanomachines erupt from his ears and begin working on knitting the injuries he had on himself and attempting to replicate the same injuries on a nearby sapient target. If he is attempting to transfer mental traumas and mind damage, some nanomachines will charge on Schmekelmeister's brainchip for about a second before full sending it for the target's brain. Once they have reached the target's brain, they will implant all of the mind damages/selected traumas via a forcefully implanted brainchip.
Exert your Mind and spend an Action. Select a Sapient target within 80 feet. 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. If a target does not consent to the transfer, you must roll Intellect, Technology at Difficulty 6 to use the effect on them. They can resist by rolling either Body or Mind at Difficulty 6, depending on what you are attempting to transfer to them.
You may choose one each of as many things as you like from the following to transfer from your target to yourself, or from yourself to them:
Anyone who witnesses you during this Effect's activation will almost certainly be disturbed to see Whenever Schmekelmeister uses this ability, a horde of nanomachines erupt from his ears and begin to coldly and efficiently seal up Schmekelmeister's wounds (both physical and mental) without a care in the world about how messy and painful the process might be.

Ophir's entire body is a camera, and he has spent much of his life perfecting this tiny supernatural mutation into something that could be an impressive ability. His eyes are the equivalent of high-quality professional cameras, whereas the smaller lenses that he can manifest on his limbs and on the back of his neck are similar low-to-mid range consumer cameras.
Some of the features he has developed include:
- Full professional camera functionality, including the recording of videos with full sound, multi-shot, sport mode, etc.
- Camera flash and flashlight functionality.
- Zoom and adjustable focus with various internal lenses.
- Night vision functionality.
- 3 TB native storage which can be offloaded to computer or hard drive via USB ("plugged in" using his mouth).
- Internal photo review (though this disables his vision and hearing while in review mode), and external review via USB.
Ophir was born with a rather strange ability, even among the rare few in the world whose lineage gave them minor supernatural powers. Even as a baby, his light brown irises looked oddly mechanical... and his pupils would dilate and contract with quiet clicks. Neither of his parents understood where this odd mutation came from, but they loved him and raised him the same as his brothers and sister.
Even before he was able to speak, Ophir's memory was unmatched by his peers. It wasn't until he was in elementary school that his parents realized that he might be more than what meets the eye. Photos started showing up on the family computer that could've never been taken with a normal camera... with strange and unexpected angles at times when no technology had been around.
He was bitten by the photojournalism bug after joining the A/V club at his High School and starting to better understand camera technology and technique and how it could be used to show the world to those who need to see it. Once he understood the capabilities of mundane cameras... he knew exactly what he would need to do to his own underdeveloped "body cam".
