Rei's innate technique, or Mahojutsu, allows them to channel their internal energies into other technological devices to manipulate them. They do so through by using electrum as a conduit- which allows them to manifest their sorcery in the form of coursing electricity between the focus and target. This lightning continues to linger after the hack is completed, acting as a calling card and allowing them to access previously hacked machines as well.
Spend 1 minute. Select a Computer within 20 feet. Can be used on Alien technology. You must actively and obviously use an electrum shard to activate this Effect. Roll Intellect + Technology, with the Difficulty set by the GM depending on the security of the system you are hacking. Sapient targets can resist by rolling Mind at Difficulty 6.
If you succeed, you may issue a single command to the targeted system. This command must have a specific outcome or be a request for specific login credentials. The command you issue must be within the machine's current capabilities. For example, you cannot order a standard security camera to grow legs and walk around.
After successfully using this Effect, you may choose to add the target to your own personal "network." You may use this Effect on any target on your network at any range. You can have up to 3 targets on your network.
Every hack you make leaves behind distorted lightning in the system as a personal "calling card" that informs anyone who uses the system that the hack occurred.
This Gift's Cost is capped at 2 and cannot be increased further.
Possession of this Power grants the following Battle Scar: Mana Core: Your body is powered by a mana-infused core, similar to a heart. Called shots against your mana core (heart) do +2 damage.

S0L scratches or burns something that looks like a small sun into a surface, but is actually a complex set of instructions in insanely small symbols. A complete system override for any robot or "living computer" not prepared to look at it.
Once the trap triggers, S0L is connected to the victim and may even make their circuits overheat and their bodies burn.
Anyone checking the system afterwards will find an ASCII sun prominently "burnt" into the code.
If you know that an evil copy of you is somewhere out there, you have to find a way to defeat them without giving up on your ideals.

This Effect cannot be used unless the target is an Animate Computer. Roll Perception + Technology, with the Difficulty set by the GM depending on the security of the system you are hacking.
The trap looks like a scratched or burnt sun pictogram. Only those who have seen this trap before can identify it as a trap. Anyone who is aware of the trap may intuitively avoid, trigger, or destroy it.
Any Computer that enters the chosen region will trigger the trap. Sapient targets can resist by rolling Mind at Difficulty 6.
If you succeed, you may issue a single command to the targeted system. This command must have a specific outcome or be a request for specific login credentials.

You may issue a "self-destruct" command that leaves the hacked system's hardware inoperable, even if that machine had no such functionality previously. Only works on Computers.
Every hack you make leaves behind A sun on a prominent display in the system as a personal "calling card" that informs anyone who uses the system that the hack occurred.
You may only use this Effect once per day.
A hologram arm appears where Tay's missing limb would be and the circuit board glows brightly. the hologram arm reaches into the computer and then disapears leaving it's code in the system until activation, leaving a shining pink stone behind on the screen
the arm looks very much non human, and mechanical, like the arm Tay lost and the stone left behind is modeled after the artifact that allows time travel.

Your hack cannot be discovered by system administrators or firewall software for a number of hours equal to your Outcome on the initial roll.
True to their namesake, the hacker can penetrate the security of any computer system, granting access to its informational stores, or, in a pinch, allowing them to issue commands. The hacked system will display a flickering image of a ghost until it is dismissed.
While hacking, The Technician's fingers move with supernatural speed, blurring like a ghost.
