Appease the Dead "𝒲𝑜𝓊𝓁𝒹 𝓎𝑜𝓊 𝓀𝒾𝓃𝒹𝓁𝓎?"
The Talent wasn't wrong, Mrs. Ross's gift has become much stronger in a very short amount of time. Instead of simply communicating with the dead, she has learned to use The Voice to command them to do her bidding. The commands are limited in scope right now, but they will grow with time as she continues to practice and cultivate the gift.
Ripley Ross concentrates on The Veil and begins to call out with The Voice. Her eyes shimmer and flicker with a subtle purple energy and she speaks her command under her breath (though no words are communicated in meatspace). A spirit in the local space becomes compelled to do her bidding, though which entities that she pulls over are still yet to be seen...
You gain the following benefits at all times. You must actively and obviously be using Spirit Talisman to gain the benefits of this Effect.
You can interact with things that are within 75 feet without needing to physically touch them or be near them. Any rolls made for Actions taken in this way use a Mental Strength of 4 in place of your Brawn rating, a Mental Agility of 2 in place of your Dexterity, and otherwise use your own Attributes and Abilities.
Telekinetic actions have the following restrictions and behaviors:
- Line of Sight: You may use this Effect on targets which are out of sight, provided you have an understanding of their location.
- Unarmed Combat: You can use this Effect to deal damage through unarmed attacks, grapples, and thrown objects. Attacks deal +1 Damage. Unarmed Mastery does not apply.
- Weapons: You cannot wield weapons effectively in combat.
- Fine Tools: You are otherwise limited to actions that a normal human could do with their bare hands.
- Maintaining Focus: You must maintain Concentration while taking Actions in this way. If you are Injured or interrupted, you must roll Mind at Difficulty 9 to maintain Concentration. If you fail, you cannot engage in telekinetic actions for the next 6 - Intellect rounds.
- Levitation: If you are strong enough to lift yourself, you may levitate up to within 75 feet away from the ground. Movement is limited to 5 feet per Round.
- Multiple Items: You can only interact with one thing or take one Action at a time.
- Using this Effect on targets which you cannot see will not give you any descriptive information about their location or surroundings, though you will have a sense of whether or not you are “touching” them, or if they bump into something.
- Any telekinetic actions which interact with Animate targets may require contested rolls at GMs discretion.

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.

Mind Hands
Interact with objects without touching them physically
Elizabeth looks at the cupboard, and the cupboard, without her touching it, opens. It was containing dishes and cutlery of all sorts, but out of them, only teacup carefully floated and lands on a table next to her, followed by he tea spoon. Cupboard closed, and she looked away from it, focusing her attention on the teapot. And, as expected by now, it also flew towards her, and slowly poured its contents into the cup, before floating back to its original position.
Elizabeth was unsure of when she "awakened" her "gift". Maybe she had it since childhood and just never noticed, and thus it never developed properly, or maybe only recently, when her phone flew into her face during one morning, but either way, now she could use her mind for telekinesis. Now she didn't had to get up from her seat to brew tea, which was cool, even if impractical.

Blade Dance
Some say the Blademasters hone their skills by shaving using only their mind.
The Blademaster is so attuned to blades that they may manipulate any bladed object at a range simply by willing it. Observers see translucent spider-silk connecting the Blademaster's fingers to the blade, allowing them to puppet it.
You gain the following benefits as long as the target object has a cutting edge.
