The junkyard surgeon grew up molded by the trash and junk. Where others saw waste, they saw potential. With this ability, the surgeon can heal themselves and others with discarded items considered to be trash.
Exert your Mind and spend a minute. Select a Living or Animate target within arm's reach. You must use up Anything discarded and considered to be trash in order to activate this Effect. Select a Battle Scar on your target to treat.
The treated Battle Scar heals as you finish activating this Effect.
Healing a Battle Scar in this way leaves behind It's clear that trash is being used to achieve the result on the target which cannot be healed.
Kirk knocks on a nearby wall and sighs.
"Four soldiers, lined up to enter the room in 3... 2... 1-" The door bursts open.
Ever since he left Desert Storm, Kirk has felt different. Regardless of the skills he might've acquired, he knew for a fact that it wasn't normal to be able to fit a gun in a glove, especially not an assault rifle. It is only now that he is realizing that he is learning the way of the ghosts.

Injuries and Wound Level are carried over between forms. However, transforming can never kill you; you merely remain Incapacitated until your Injuries are sufficiently healed.
While transformed, you may speak and use any Influence or Communication Powers you posses.
It would be improper, nay, even absurd for the Emperor of the United States of America to fall victim to the machinations of those who would attempt to influence him - fortunately, when acting in his Imperial Role, Issac is quite inured against such perfidious trickery!

You no longer age naturally, and supernatural attempts to age you fail.
Your Injuries no longer degrade with time.

You cannot speak any coherent verbal language and must resort to other means of communication.
You are incapable of fine object manipulation and can only hold or grasp things in a crude, clumsy way.
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.
You can interact with things that are within 75 feet without needing to physically touch them or be near them.

Telekinetic actions have the following restrictions and behaviors:
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.

When crafting your oath, you may incorporate any of the following penalties:

You may send a single message to your target. It can be no more complicated than a multi-page letter or a long email.
The message will only be perceived by the intended recipient. You must share a common language for your target to understand the message.
This Effect is not obvious, and the only sign you are using an Effect is your left hand making a fist. If someone suspects that an Effect was used, they must roll Perception + Alertness, Difficulty 8 to pick up on your Tell.

The pyro points a laser pointer towards a target, and a cat-sized-and-shaped fire springs into life, very clearly attracted to the laser. This flame cat can also be shaped from existing fires. While the pointer is active it remains in the shape of a cat, pouncing towards the little red dot. When the laser pointer is not active, the flames return to normal.

Exert your Mind and spend an Action. Select a target within 20 feet which has both fuel and oxygen available (if you are starting a new fire). You must actively and obviously use a laser pointer to activate this Effect.
You may start a new fire as large as a torch's flame at your target. You may create fires the size of a lighter or candle flame without Exerting your Mind. Your fires require fuel and oxygen in order to continue burning.
Lighting a target on fire deals 2 Damage each Round on your turn, starting in the Round after the one in which they caught fire. This Damage is reduced by Armor, but the target’s Armor rating will be depleted by any Damage dealt, destroying the Armor once it reaches 0.
You may extinguish flames as a Reaction. This does not extend to explosives.
You may spend a Free Action on your initiative move a fire as large as a torch's flame that is within 20 feet to another location within 20 feet. You may Exert your Mind to draw a line which a fire up to twice as large as a torch's flame cannot cross.
