Mimesis Copy this, copycat
Jane focuses on mimicking the specific properties of a subject, such as the hardened material of metal or the speed of a car, as her skin ripples and changes to accommodate the power she’s looking for. The only limit of what she can mimic is her imagination. That, and what she’s touched.
Exert your Mind and spend 30 minutes. You may only target yourself. The target can easily Resist.
You may add one augmentation to your target. Each augmentation counts as a Battle Scar and can have exactly one of the following Effects:
- Specialized: You receive +2 dice to a particular non-combat Action.
- Environmental Adaptation: You do not suffer harm from heat, cold, pressure, or lack of oxygen in a particular environment, provided that challenge normally exists in that environment.
- Implanted Tool: You have access to the functionality of some common Device at all times. The selected Device can be no larger than a motorcycle helmet.
- Armor: You have 2 Armor at all times. As always, Armor from multiple sources does not stack.
- Pouch: Part of your body functions as a hidden pocket. It can hold no more than a briefcase (15 liters).
- Zippy: Your Free Movement is increased by 10 feet.
- Maws and Claws: Your unarmed attacks do +2 Weapon Damage instead of -1.
The augmentations you provide are not outwardly visible nor obvious.
You may end this Effect prematurely as a Free Action.
Possession of this Power grants the following Battle Scar: Disfigured: Scarred skin.
Your alteration "heals" over the course of the next month, after which it is fully cured.
- Remember: A Contractor’s Body rating is reduced by 1 for each Battle Scar after their fourth.
- You may not augment targets with pouches or implanted devices that are larger than they are.
- Targets without Body ratings may have a maximum of 4 augmentations.
- You can target yourself if you qualify as a valid target by the other requirements.
- Your target must be within line of sight, or within range of another sense if more fitting for the Gift's flavor.

The Sons of Salem
We swear to secure our people against the wickedness and evil of the invisible world.
We swear to aid the afflicted.
We swear to stay ever vigilant and seek out the abominable witchcrafts committed in this country.
We humbly pray to be blessed by God to hold all those who consort with the Devil accountable. Amen
—Opening and closing prayer for Sons of Salem meetings.
The Sons of Salem is a loosely-organized conservative populist movement in the United States that preaches violent opposition to anything they perceive as witchcraft, demonic, or monstrous.
Blowhard podcaster Ted Gundy and former general of the mercenary group “Hognose,” Roland Rush, founded the movement in 2010 after a series of violent werewolf attacks and unexplained, supernatural murders in Tennessee. Memberships grew quickly, stoked by Ted’s fiery doomsday rhetoric on his podcast "Truth Seekers" and the aspiration of the masculine power embodied by Roland.
Although they speak of duty, honor, and maintaining the “natural order” of things, the Sons of Salem are driven by fear. They collect guns and appear at protests en-masse as a way of easing the all-consuming terror of their powerlessness. At the same time, they have conditioned themselves to respond to fear with “strength” (read: violence).

Infernal Investment
The First Taste Is Free
The psychic fiend chats with their patient about how they are to be upgraded and the conditions that they must adhere to. At the end of the conversation, the fiend takes the patient's hands and says a few words of The Dark Tongue. A jolt of dramatic but harmless hellfire travels from the fiend to the patient, imbuing them with a portion of his power.
Are you an up-and-coming blues player who needs a little something extra to hit it big? Do you need a little outside help to land the perfect date? Do you punches need a little extra. . .punch? You've come to the right place. For the low low price of a favor to be defined later, we can make you better, stronger, faster at whatever you want.
Of course, in a month, you'll need a fresh dose and the favor will be larger but hey, you can't put a price on success, right?
