Main character energy It's almost like people just flock to him
Joey just exudes the energy of a main character. People are inclined to believe him, even if they don't know why, and they will defend him for it! He only speaks the truth!
You gain the following benefits at all times.
Your Charisma rating is increased by 1. You may Exert your Mind to automatically gain an Outcome of 5 on any roll that uses Charisma (Cannot be used on combat rolls or Power activations).
Possession of this Power grants the following Trauma at all times: Delusion of Grandeur.
You also gain the following effects:
- Anime: You may have a 30 second conversation with another character on your initiative each Round in Combat, and using any Communication Effect takes a Free Action instead of a full Action.

- Hey, Listen!: You cannot be ignored or unheard when directly addressing an entity.
- Honest Eyes: Your word is accepted as honest so long as you are speaking the truth as you understand it. You can always tell if someone telling a lie without making a roll, though you may not know what they are concealing
- Me, an Empath: You have an intuitive understanding of the emotional state of any Animate being within 30 feet. Once per person per day you may roll Charisma + Influence to learn what things they respect or disrespect in others.
- No Choice But To Stan: If someone speaks or acts against you socially, anyone observing it must roll Mind, with the difficulty equal to your Charisma, in order to not defend you.

- Unflappable: Any attempts to control or influence your thoughts or emotions are rolled at +1 Difficulty.
- The Price Of Fame: Any sightings or recordings of your activity can easily be traced back to you. Even when disguised or using an alias, people always get a Perception check to recognize you.
- On its own, your empath abilities do not allow you to detect lies.
- Being forced to Stan will not force someone to violate any of their Limits or to engage in violence of any kind (though they may still do so of their own volition).
- A "social gathering" might include a birthday party, after-work drinks, a ski trip, or yoga in the park, among other things. It likely would not include a cult gathering to summon a demon, Congressional negotiations over a contentious bill, etc.
- Attribute bonuses from multiple sources do not stack. Instead the highest bonus is used.

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).

The day Joshua Norton the First died, there was a funeral procession over two miles long, & the day was marked by a total eclipse of the sun. Now, a new Emperor has risen to unite & heal the divides of America - Emperor Issac Norton the II (formerly Issac Neuman). When wearing the iconic attire associated with the role, Issac presents a commanding yet comforting presence.

The Emperor has come to save us from ourselves.

Eanna's Gift
John had found himself in possession of the enigmatic Scar of Eanna, its origin shrouded in the deepest obscurity. A profound and unbreakable bond ensued as he connected with this artifact, to the point where he became inseparably fused with it. This remarkable connection, over time, seamlessly integrated the Scar into his very chest, resulting in an extraordinary transformation. What once appeared to be a peculiar metallic imprint bore an uncanny resemblance to an intricate and otherworldly tattoo. To a casual observer, John might have struck an impression as a devoted adherent to some mystical faith. However, upon closer scrutiny, the observer would experience a profound and unsettling sensation, akin to encountering an enigma that defied conventional explanation.
The necklace/scar exerts a profound influence on John's mind. Whenever he can't unequivocally confirm its presence, a potent cocktail of panic and fear engulfs him. This goes beyond the mere sensation of its weight against his chest. If he can't currently see its luminous metallic luster, feel the warmth radiating through his hand, observe the subtle yet undeniable impact it has on those nearby, or hear the faint sizzle of its utilization, he finds himself ensnared in a paralyzing web of uncertainty. It's akin to a Schrödinger's Cat scenario, teetering on the brink of existential dread, desperately gasping for confirmation through every available sense. Without this validation, he experiences an inner decay, his very being slowly withering.
You gain the following benefits as long as you have your Eanna's Cross. The Eanna's Cross is burned into his chest. It is a metal chunk (originally a necklace) that he welded and attached to his chest.

- Poker Face: You reveal only what you want to reveal. It is impossible to determine whether or not you are lying. You may roll Charisma + Performance to resist any investigative Effect that targets you. If you successfully resist, you determine the info they get.
- In rare cases, GMs may require you to make a roll to lie to particularly powerful beings.
- If your Eanna's Cross. The Eanna's Cross is burned into his chest. It is a metal chunk (originally a necklace) that he welded and attached to his chest is damaged, destroyed, or lost, you lose all benefits from this Effect for the next two months.
