Psionic Jump Flow through spacetime as a wave of pure thought
The Psionic Jump allows Lila to flow through spacetime like a wave of pure thought, bending reality to move herself across vast distances in an instant. This teleportation power, while awe-inspiring, is far from refined. It requires nearly a full minute of intense concentration, during which Lila must gather an overwhelming amount of energy. The process is far from subtle—visible ripples of psychic force surge through the air as her mind strains under the pressure. It’s agonizing, causing searing headaches, nosebleeds, and leaving her mentally and physically drained. As a coping mechanism, Lila grounds herself by focusing on her mind palace—the peaceful woods surrounding Blackwood Manor, a memory of happiness and serenity from her childhood.
Increase your sacrificial Injury's Severity by 1 and spend 1 minute. Select a Location within your line of sight. You must make a Trauma roll when you use this Effect. Its Difficulty cannot be reduced by any means. If you fail or Botch, you receive one Mind Damage and a new Trauma.
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.
You may also Exert your Mind and spend an Action to Travel in a random direction without any knowledge of an endpoint or destination. Roll Dexterity - Athletics at Difficulty 6 to safely arrive without any consequences.
If you traverse any wooded area at night for one minute, you may activate this Effect and travel to the edge of any other wooded area at night that you’re aware of, regardless of range.
Anyone who witnesses you during this Effect's activation will almost certainly be disturbed to see ripples of psychic force around Lila feel like a loud and painful synaptic static.
If you do not have a sacrificial Injury when you activate this Effect, take a new Severity-1 Injury.
- The consequences of a failed aiming roll on a Random Hop are at GMs discretion, but could include Battle Scars, serious Injuries, or traveling into a significantly dangerous location.
- When narrating disturbing content, be cognizant of your group's tone and accommodating to those who would like to "fast forward" through the description.
- The sacrificial Injury received from activating this Effect cannot be prevented by any means or healed before 1 day has passed. It is shared with all Effects that use sacrifice. This Injury does not requires Stabilization or cause Battle Scars when it becomes Severe.
- You can target yourself if you qualify as a valid target by the other requirements.
- Your target must be within line of sight, or within range of another sense if more fitting for the Gift's flavor.

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).

Traveling Through Perfection

Upon entering coordinates, the device activates, opening a rift accompanied by electric smoke and the sound of revving engines.

Upon leaving, they will find themselves entering any chosen bar, seamlessly transitioning to their new location.
From the perspective of the user, as they walk through the portal/bar, they are transported to a dimension of perfected forms. In the case of walking from bar to bar, there walking through their interpretation of a perfect bar. A large clockwork face of an old man can be seen creating these perfected forms, always with its back to the user.

Shackle of the Riftway
Bound by space and time, the shackles twist fate, unleashing wrath across unseen worlds.
The Shackle of the Riftway is a powerful artifact and a companion for the Shackle of Serenity: it is designed to anchor Norman to a specific point in time and space, allowing his spirit to travel across dimensions before rematerializing. The bracer is built in black leather, intricately detailed with gold filigree and runes that pulse with otherworldly energy. A series of small, polished links from a runed stainless steel chain are woven into the bracer, reinforcing its ability to connect with the arcane forces of the multiverse. The centerpiece of the bracer is a coin-shaped symbol embedded in the leather, etched with eldritch designs that evoke the ancient power of the Elders who once bestowed these abilities. This symbol acts as the focal point for Norman’s dimensional travels, guiding his spirit as it slips between realms in pursuit of closure, with the first etchings dedicated to a specific site - the Infinite Parking Lot.
