When activating this Effect, the user lights up a joint and continues to smoke throughout the entire process, exhaling clouds of smoke that fill the air. As they approach the broken object, their demeanor is oddly focused despite the relaxed haze around them. Their actions seem haphazard and random; they use whatever is at hand—a spoon to tap components, a screwdriver twisted in mid-air, or duct tape applied in bizarre patterns. Small sparks and clicking sounds occasionally emanate from the object, indicating progress.
For 10 minutes, they continue to smoke and work, seemingly in their own world. Observers notice an almost magnetic quality to their movements, a natural ease and confidence that seem to influence the environment around them. Despite the apparent chaos, there's an inexplicable sense that the user's presence and attitude are guiding the process, making their actions seem almost deliberate. By the end, the object hums back to life, fully functional. The entire scene is a blend of confusion and amazement as witnesses see the user's unconventional yet effective repair, all while constantly consuming marijuana.

Kotodama, the spirit word. The same means by which Susanoo proved his sincerity to Amaterasu and produced the 5 male deities that rule in the Celestial Palace. Leon has mastered a minor form of this in the form of manipulating Intrusive thoughts. The nattering, unwanted, whispers that lay at the edge of your mind. An excellent tool for delivering clandestine whispers for a novice telepath, though not strictly a Kitsune's strength Leon has come to realize that it is a talent that he needs to develop. Though all Kitsune are psychic to a degree, Leon's particular talents require quite a bit of a mental push, and he can only send a few short whispers but he can send them anywhere to anyone. After all, it only took a few sweet nothings to undo Troy.
Spend an Action. Select a target any distance away from you. You must have a specific target in mind, but you require only an intuitive understanding of them, such as their name, face, or Location. You must actively and obviously use A miniature tori gate to activate this Effect.

Jason takes a bit of time to pass out before being whisked away in lines of glass and drugs leading all the way to his home
Exert your Mind and spend 2 Actions. If you are at My home in Louisiana, you may choose a target Location within your line of sight; otherwise, your target may only be My home in Louisiana.
You are transported directly to the chosen Location. Anyone who is touching you as you Travel will be brought along with you. You must wait an hour before activating this effect again.
When you Travel, you leave Glass shards and lines of miscellanious drugs as a distinct trail between your starting and end points.

You place a ward, which is fixed to a target Object that can be moved and repositioned. You can hear and see through the ward as though you were standing at its location. You may have at most 1 wards active at once.
The ward requires Concentration to monitor, though it will remain active until you deactivate it. The ward can be discovered if someone knows what they are looking for, but is otherwise inconspicuous and cannot be identified as a ward.
The creature's claws rip through the poor, defenseless doctor's coat, opening deep gashes in their gut. It bares its fangs to lunge for the killing blow, but the doctor looks up at the attacker. Their eyes filed not with utter terror at their imminent demise, only a look of disappointment and pity. Touched, the monster hesitates. . .
This Effect activates whenever you receive a Severity 2 or higher Injury from an attack. It does not require an Action or Exertion. Select a Living target within 45 feet. Roll Charisma + Influence at Difficulty 6. Affected targets can resist by rolling Mind at Difficulty 6.
If you succeed, for the next minute, your target will do things they otherwise wouldn’t have done, inspired by remorse for hurting such a pure soul. They will not necessarily display their emotions in an obvious way.
Actions they take will be in keeping with their character and the way they tend to deal with strong emotions. They will be unlikely to change their mind about any actions taken or decisions made until after the Effect ends.
The mobster presents a reasoned, logical case to the target: there's a lot of dangerous folks out there, and only they can offer safety... for a price.
If they agree, they will pay the mobster a monthly fee for protection. If they stop making their payments... well, let's just say, the mobster can't be held responsible for any unsavory types that might pay them a visit.
This Effect cannot be used unless you are making a deal to exchange money for protection.
You may make an oath with a physically-present, Sapient target. Communicate the oath's terms to the target, including the requirements and penalties for each participant. If all agree to the terms, you must Exert your Mind and all participants must shake hands to seal the deal.

The target cannot be compelled to agree via a direct threat of violence, another Effect, or another oath. If you would like to use clever wording to mislead the target, you must succeed a contested Intellect + (Culture or Influence) roll.
The priest channels their true faith into a brutal assault on the consciousness of demonic or unholy creatures. By wielding their favored holy symbol, a gilded crucifix, they can put a proper fear of god into them, leaving them cowering at any truly holy things they encounter.
Exert your Mind (unless you have been recently attacked by your target) and spend an Action. Select a Sapient target within 20 feet.

This Trauma may be removed by Effects or mundane therapy, as normal. Affected targets are aware that they are being attacked and can generally tell who did it.
