"...Trust in me, my kin... I may appear off-putting, but the power of the universe resides within me! Gaze upon the true form of divinity! Though you understand the truth, there others who fear- who HATE the nature of reality... For them, I will hide... But not for long!..."
Spending a few seconds gathering rainbow cosmic energy into their palm, Serq is able to tear into the air around them and open a rift. Stepping into it, they are able to form a mesh around themself like a second skin, allowing them to take a different physical form. The scent of bog water can be detected as the coalescence of the universe disperses.
[Disfiguring]: They're an Alien being.

Vito consumes the Elvis Panacea, the modern Ambrosia that THEY use to lie to the masses, hiding the sheeple from its innumerable benefits whilst lying through their teeth as they call it the cause of Elvis Prime's "Death".
At once, a red pulsating light begins to emanate from his chest, faint song emanating from within until at once bursting through in a cacophony of afterbirth-coated limbs.
Distressed faces of Elvis Homunculi press their way through the thin firmament of his skin like a cracked egg, clawing their way overtop of another as they impossibly push their way through Vito's skin without sign of any wound, landing wetly on the ground as an Elvis King; a fused and horrendous mass of nails and bloodied intertwined limbs.
With a series of horrific crunching sounds, the limbs of the trio of homunculi snap away from one another, holes ripped in their flesh from the dozens of nails pulled out in their disconnection, leaving hundreds more that serve as both visceral armour and ranged attack methods.

Anyone who witnesses you during this Effect's activation or for its duration will almost certainly be disturbed to see The Elvis Hive Bloom.
Their body bubbles and swells much faster and more violently than when changing form, but instead of subsiding seems to consciously move away from any form altogether. It looks as though tension in the shape is being released as it drops to the floor in a goopy mess resembling the consistency of pancake batter, with the color resembling a more flushed version of whatever skin color the previous form had. It's never clear whether The Flesh is pushing itself or pulling itself or both at once, the only thing that is clear is it ripples with energy, slightly steaming at room temperature.
Reforming reveals The Flesh for what it is, not a state of released tension, but a taut state of forced formlessness. The original form is visibly exhausted and must rest to recuperate from the intense focus.
Exert your Mind and spend an Action.
You transform into The Flesh for the next minute. You may end the effect early and return to your normal form at will. Your structure must remain relatively contiguous. Observers will view you as an unusual entity moving with a singular purpose.
While in this form, you can squeeze through any gap that is not water-tight.
Damage from standard attacks is halved, but Damage from AOE effects is increased by 1. You may spend an Action to reduce one of your Injuries’ Severity by 2, as long as you obtained the Injury while transformed and the separated pieces could reasonably be rejoined.
You cannot communicate, use equipment, or use Gifts while transformed. Your equipment does not transform with you beyond basic body coverings. Carrying capacity is unaffected.
While transformed, you can make an unarmed attack using Body as your attack roll. The target may contest by dodging or Defending. This attack deals +2 damage.

Macie quickly crosses her arms and in a bright flash holy light.

You may only have 1 active barrier at a time.
You must maintain Concentration while using this Effect. The barrier will fall if you are interrupted, or if it absorbs the full amount of Damage. When a barrier falls, you cannot use this Effect again for a minimum of 2 Rounds.

Your body is adapted to Hiding. You receive +3 dice on non-attack rolls related to Hiding.
Your alternate form is its own deadly weapon. Unarmed attacks made in your alternate form deal +3 Weapon Damage (instead of the typical -1).
Anyone who witnesses you during this Effect's activation or for its duration will almost certainly be disturbed to see His skin and bones break and deform into large Wendigo creature. Blood bursts out and bones crack.
Your alternate form renders you unable to speak any human language and incapable of fine object manipulation. You can only hold or grasp objects in a crude, clumsy way.
If the Selkie's seal skin is worn close to the body, any contact with salt water will cause them to transform into a seal. While transformed, they have full access to their normal suite of Powers.
This Effect activates whenever you are submerged in salt water. It does not require an Action or Exertion. Your target should be intuitively based on the triggering event.
You transform into small for two hours or until you choose to end the Effect. See the Extended System text for stats.
While transformed, you cannot use any equipment (including Artifacts and Consumables), and you cannot use your Active, Targeted, or Trap Powers. However, you can use your Passive Powers. Any equipment you are wearing transforms with you.

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.
If your Outcome is greater than the Severity of the Injury you were attempting to treat, you may apply any excess Outcome to other Injuries on yourself.
Anyone who witnesses you during this Effect's activation or for its duration will almost certainly be disturbed to see you drink blood directly from the vein.
The Thief casts a container's worth of fine powder into the air.
