Harpy Physiology It's beautiful up here... Ooh! Shiny!
Your arms are replaced by a pair of feathered wings that somehow still have the flexibility required to engage in your work. They aren't strong enough to allow you to take flight on your own... yet.
You gain the following benefits at all times.
As long as you are conscious, you are immune to falling Damage. Additionally, you may glide as you fall, traveling 35 feet horizontally for every 10 feet you fall. While gliding, you fall at a minimum speed of 10 feet per Round.
You are subject to the following effects while gliding:
- Earthbound: You cannot fly or glide in an atmosphere thin enough to be unbreathable.
- Weight-Limited: This Effect is suppressed any time you are over-encumbered.
Possession of this Power grants the following Trauma at all times: Magpie Syndrome.
- Any penalties to dice or movement, including from Encumbrance, are applied as normal. If your movement is reduced to 0 due to encumbrance, you will begin to sink down to the ground.

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).

Flight Gifts
Up-Draft
"This feels amazing!"
A light draft of air swirls around his body as he feels almost weightless, his body being that of a wind spirit allowing him to coast, walk, or even propel himself in any way he chooses with minimal effort through the air.
Additionally, he can 'enchant' anyone he touches to fly with him, so long as they remain in arms reach he can take them along and the velocity of the wind and movement doesn't seem to effect them.

"Flight had been an aspect that I didn't think I'd get, I was just too heavy, much less not a full weasel like my friend. After jumping down a flight of steps because I was feeling energetic I ended up realizing something, I can glide. I was of course surprised and told Kazarisu the good news, he was more annoyed that it didn't come sooner but was happy for me."
"Later that day Kazarisu and I had some flying lessons together, it was odd trying to mentally deal with movement not related to the ground but my friend was a good teacher. Even started mimicking walking on air or floating around as it became so easy for me that I just do it unconsciously now, at least when I'm at home or no one's looking."
You gain the following benefits at all times.
As long as you are conscious, you are immune to falling Damage and may hover in place mid-air. Additionally, you may glide as you fall, traveling 35 feet horizontally for every 10 feet you fall. While gliding, you fall at a minimum speed of 10 feet per Round.
You may ascend into the air and fly using your mind. Your Free Movement is Mind x5 feet/Round, including vertically. You cannot Dash. When sprinting, roll Mind and add your rating in Mind plus 1 to the outcome, multiply by 5 to find your sprint speed. Your encumbrance limit is 10 lbs per point of Mind.
You are subject to the following effects while gliding or flying:
- Evasive Maneuvers: During your turn, if you moved mostly through the air but traveled less than your Free Movement, all attacks against you are at a -2 dice penalty until your next turn.
- Earthbound: You cannot fly or glide in an atmosphere thin enough to be unbreathable.
- Commercial Flight: This Effect is suppressed any time you are over-encumbered. However, you may carry up to 1 passengers without increasing your Encumbrance. Any passengers must maintain physical contact with you or another passenger, or they will fall.
- Any penalties to dice or movement, including from Encumbrance, are applied as normal. If your movement is reduced to 0 due to encumbrance, you will begin to sink down to the ground.
- You may activate this Effect while in midair, allowing you to slow and survive any free fall.
Not Quite Angelic
What kind of possessed child can’t ominously levitate?
Grace lets herself tilt back like a trust fall. As soon as her body is slack, Obedience can take over full support and lift them to where they need to be. Her hair and scorched dress billow up around her slightly, and the glow in her eyes becomes more vibrant.
Actions in this state must be led by Obedience, since she's doing most of the work to keep them afloat.
Chamael was the inspiration- spending time with him had them jumping off a hotel bed, determined to fly just like he could. Cham was neither happy nor impressed.

Comida de Vida
So warm, so wonderful.
You take a bite out of the concha and feel a sense of euphoric warmth, everything good about life flashes into your head for a split second, you feel you are going to be okay.
Esteban's grandmother would bake conchas similar to these, any concha to him feels like home.
Use up this a green heart shaped concha and spend 15 minutes. Roll 11 dice at Difficulty 8, dice penalties do not apply.
If you succeed, the Injury is reduced in Severity by your Outcome. If you reduce its Severity to 0, the Injury is fully healed. Otherwise, it is partially healed and will heal the rest of the way at its natural rate.
This counts as a successful Makeshift Stabilization if the Injury was not already Stabilized; any Battle Scars caused by the Injury will remain.
- This consumable is destroyed when used and cannot be used again.
- Unstabilized wounds do not degenerate during treatment.
Kamaitachi's Blessing
I'm going to learn how to fly
Leon's powers have not all come back exactly as they should, but Leon has made friends in many places, and with their help, he can cover for what remains missing. This particular blessing comes courtesy of the Kamaitachi, the sickle ferret. A friendly (to Leon at least) wind spirit who commands the cutting wind. A spirit rumored to command winds that can decapitate people. Though despite the gnarly rumors one can often see little ferrets running alongside him as he rides these winds, Leon smiling as he flies in the midst of them, laughing as he tells them a joke or two to pass the time though the fickle spirits do tend to be rather demanding and won't release Leon until they've been suitably entertained.
Use up this ________ (unless you succeed on 1d10, Difficulty 7) and spend an Action. This Effect remains active for two hours.

Flight Gifts
Defy Gravity
She swept me off my feet.
The Witch wiggles her fingers at her broomstick, and it leaps from the ground with a whoosh of wind. She may then hop on and fly around. It’s so fun, she often finds herself cackling uncontrollably.
Flight is brief but quick, and she must return to the ground in one minute.
Exert your Mind and spend an Action. You must actively and obviously use a broom to activate this Effect. This Effect remains active for two hours.
