Tail of the Golden Empress Those spikes are excellent at spinning thread, and better at splattering heads.
The Empress bears an enormous tail tipped with dull natural blades, and a pair of insectoid graspers resembling mantis claws. The tail can excrete a sticky substance, though the Empress's thread cannot extend much further than 150ft before coming under strain.
The tail and the claws when used in tandem can be used to spin the Empress's signature Golden Thread, a form of gilded string that will take the weight of a mountain to break under strain (poetically, of course. The actual tensile strength of her threads have not yet been tested.)
Her tail is a misshapen and stumpy appendage. If you call it that to her face, however, she will attack you for it.
You gain the following benefits at all times.
You gain 3 additional limbs that function as standard human arms and hands.
Each additional limb you posses can take one Quick Action per Round without incurring a -2 dice penalty to your main Action. Each additional appendage you have gives you +1 dice to make and resist Grapples (up to a maximum bonus of +4 dice).
Any Battle Scars that affect or remove your additional limb will heal in a single week.
You may dedicate your extra Quick Action to contest any attempt to escape your Grapples. If you do so, you roll your full dice pool to contest and retain your Action to do anything that does not target the subject of your Grapple.
Your body provides you with the functionality of Golden Thread (150ft of rope). If used to attack, these "tools" use the same stats as a small knife.
All rolls utilizing your Extra Appendage are at a -2 dice Penalty.
Possession of this Power grants the following Trauma at all times: Vain - You are exceptionally weak to flattery.

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).
