Jane's mind had unlocked part of its potential. When she touches a device be it a computer, laptop, or even a cell phone she establishes a link between her mind and herself. When touching a device her hand will have blue lines spread from her to the device and her eyes will stream data across their surface.
When Jane wants to make something 'Self-destruct' her eyes turn briefly red with red data moving the opposite direction when she uses her secondary ability.
Exert your Mind and spend 1 minute. Select a Computer within arm's reach. Does not work on Alien technology. 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.
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.
If your command does not require bypassing the security of the target (for example, typing on a computer that is unlocked), you do not need to Exert your Mind to activate this Effect, and activation only takes a single Action.
Nocturne of the Hollow Mind gently coaxes the listener into a deep, dreamless sleep—leaving their body pliant and mind hollow. In this vacant state, the caster’s will slips in like mist, guiding the sleeper's movements as if they were a marionette on invisible strings. The spell is as elegant as it is unsettling, a perfect tool for those who prefer quiet control over brute force.
Spend an Action. Select a Living target within 30 feet. You must actively and obviously use My Guitar to activate this Effect. Roll Charisma + Performance at Difficulty 6. Affected targets may resist by rolling Mind at Difficulty 6.
If you succeed, your target becomes drowsy for the next 30 seconds, during which time they suffer an additional -2 dice Penalty to all Actions. At the end of their drowsiness, they fall asleep as long as you maintain Concentration.
Sleeping targets will not prematurely wake up on their own, but may still be woken up by sudden loud noises, being jarred or splashed with water, taking Damage, or similar rousing events. They will also awaken before dying of hunger, thirst, or suffocation. Drowsy targets always fall asleep, regardless of what happens while they are drowsy.
The target can be compelled to take physical actions and use their senses by other Effects, and they will still remain asleep throughout. If this occurs, they will be obviously sleepwalking to anyone who observes them.
This Gift cannot have more than 3 Drawbacks, and its Gift Cost is capped at 2.

Harry Johnson channels the mystical prowess of Volga Svyatoslavich, the legendary bogatyr known for his cunning and subtle use of power. In the heat of battle, when his fists meet flesh, Harry can invoke the ancient magic of Volga, sending his opponent into a deep, dreamless slumber with a single, precise blow.
To the untrained eye, it might seem like a simple knockout—a powerful punch that drops an adversary. But those who know of the old tales might recognize the truth: this is no ordinary strike. As Harry’s fist connects, he unleashes a subtle yet potent force, drawing upon Volga’s ancient knowledge to lull his enemy into an inescapable sleep. The opponent’s eyes glaze over, their body succumbing to a paralysis that leaves them conscious yet utterly immobilized, as if bewitched by an ancient spell.

Taking a long drag from his cigarette he cups his hands before creating a pool of smoke in his palms. With a flourish as flame dances from the smoke before flittering across to his finger, with a snap the wisp of flame transforms into a cartoonish dragon before belching flame in the direction of the target.

The doctor is a master at surgical transplantation. As long as they have a donor part, they can replace any permanent, lingering battle scars on their patient.
