Mirror Spirit They say the eye is the mirror to one's soul.

8
Requires Seasoned
The power to temporarily transfer your consciousness into a Creature.
Used by Nathan Hong, Created by Ltyinkwint.
(This Effect is obviously Alien when used. When activating this Effect, it is obvious you are interacting with the target. You must actively and obviously be using a mirror.)

Nathan looks at his mirror, on which is the image of a his target. His reflection attempts to invade the creature's own, a process much easier if it already has embedded part itself into it. Nathan shatters into shards that are sucked into the isolated image, reforming in its eye for a brief moment.

Exert your Mind (unless the target is a creature under your supernatural command) and spend an Action or Reaction. Select a Creature target within your line of sight. You must actively and obviously use a mirror to activate this Effect.

You possess your target and have control over their actions for the next hour. You do not leave your original body behind when you possess a target. When a possession ends, your original body will reappear at the host body’s same location. You may spend an Action to end the possession early.

Stats: Any Actions you take will use the possessed creature’s Brawn, Dexterity, and Perception, but use your own Charisma, Intellect, and Abilities.

Gifts: You have access to your Powers from within the host's body.

Death: If the host becomes incapacitated or is destroyed, you are forcibly evicted back into your own body.

Eviction: You are able to engage in combat or take other risky actions without being forced out of the host’s body. If you are forced out of the target's body prematurely, you must make a Trauma roll.

Targets with Body ratings higher than 10 require a Charisma + Animals roll resisted by the target’s Body. Kaiju and environment-scale targets are immune.

  • If targeting a Sapient target that counts as a Creature due to an Effect, you must succeed a contested Mind roll. You roll at Difficulty 6, and the target rolls at Difficulty 8.
  • 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.
