Consignment "The Circle of Life"

2
The power to transfer Injuries, Mind, and Source between targets.
Used by Xander DuBois, Created by Strazhari.
(Anyone who witnesses you activate this Effect is very likely to be disturbed to see bio-electric lightning explodes from Xander's remaining eye & mouth, accompanied by swirling auras around both himself & the target, visibly withering the recipient. )

When activated, Xander's eyes roll whites & a vibration can be felt in the teeth of anyone nearby. Transmitting injuries or insanity through the principle of Contagion, where like calls to like. This biofeedback process can transmit traumas & even wounds through psychosomatic transmission - this process is a gross example of the more horrific aspect of volatile psychic powers, as the life force is visibly drained.


Exert your Mind and spend an Action. Select a Sapient target within arm's reach. If a target does not consent to the transfer, you must roll Cha + Influence at Difficulty 6 to use the effect on them. They can resist by rolling either Body or Mind at Difficulty 6, depending on what you are attempting to transfer to them.

You may choose one each of as many things as you like from the following to transfer from your target to yourself, or from yourself to them:

  • A single Trauma
  • A single Injury and any Battle Scars it caused
This Effect cannot be used again for the next day.

Anyone who witnesses you during this Effect's activation will almost certainly be disturbed to see bio-electric lightning explodes from Xander's remaining eye & mouth, accompanied by swirling auras around both himself & the target, visibly withering the recipient.
