Thrice damned soul container

1
The power to temporarily transform into Fallen angel.
Used by Gustav Tischbein, Created by jjkilla234.
(Anyone who witnesses you activate this Effect or for its duration is very likely to be disturbed to see Demonic Visage. )

Gustav has created a spell to completely fuse his soul with his dark passengers, as he chants in Hebrew An invisible force strikes his body, stripping away layers with ruthless precision. First, the skin is torn asunder. Then, muscles and sinew are ripped away, leaving only the untouched skeleton in its wake.

From this skeletal core, Gustav rapidly regenerates into a new, infernal form. His face becomes angular and almost sculpture like. His once-brown skin now takes on an obsidian hue. A blood-red, upside-down cross adorns his forehead. His height expands to a towering 6'7", Dark shadowy claws drip with a putrid icier from the tips of his fingers. Ripped, jet-black feathers sprout from the back of his hips, forming a pair of dark wings.

Exert your Mind and spend an Action. 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 transform into Fallen angel for 3 minutes. You have access to all of your Powers while you are Fallen angel, and you can use your equipment. Your Battle Scars, Injuries, and physical Liabilities are carried over between forms. Reverting from your Alternate Form cannot cause your existing Injuries to kill you. Instead, you remain Incapacitated.

While transformed, your Brawn is increased by 2. Your Stress is reduced by 2.

While transformed, instead of your normal clothes and equipment, you are equipped with: Large Waterproof Phany pack with 5 Baggies of cocaine, 1 Narcotix's White gold, 3 Bloody Doctor, 4 Regenerative Ecstasy, 3 Unholy Purification, 1 Truth Serum, flowing white toga dress, Archeologist Grimoire

You may end this Effect prematurely as a Free Action.

Anyone who witnesses you during this Effect's activation or for its duration will almost certainly be disturbed to see Demonic Visage.

  • Attribute bonuses from multiple sources do not stack. Instead the highest bonus is used.

The talisman is mainly composed of its head, gut and feet. Learning this particular effect from school under the Three Pure Ones, these fu begin with three hooks.

The feet, lastly, are as varied as the stars in the sky, depending on the intention behind the talisman.
