the arm looks very much non human, and mechanical, like the arm Tay lost and the stone left behind is modeled after the artifact that allows time travel. This all works do to special parts of the circuit that try to interact with the arm, but instead as a fail-safe make the holographic arm temporarily. This power merely gives a means to interact with the circuit board to hack a system.

Exert your Mind and spend 1 minute to activate. Select a Computer within arm's reach. Can be used on Alien technology. You must actively and obviously use Modified Circuit Board to activate this Effect. Roll Intellect + Technology, with the Difficulty set by the GM depending on the security of the system you are hacking. Sapient targets can resist by rolling Mind at Difficulty 6. The hacking roll and their defensive roll are both Difficulty 6.

If you succeed, you may issue a single command to the targeted system. This command must have a specific outcome or be a request for specific login credentials. The command you issue must be within the machine's current capabilities. For example, you cannot order a standard security camera to grow legs and walk around.

Your command does not have to take effect immediately. Instead, upon a successful Hack, you may specify a condition under which the specified command is issued or simply suspend the Command until you desire to activate it.

Every hack you make leaves behind a shining pink stone in the system as a personal "calling card" that informs anyone who uses the system that the hack occurred.

  • You can target yourself if you qualify as a valid target by the other requirements.

Straight out of a Bosch painting, Jakob believes it to be the 'souls' of those who died on the operating table. Whether that's the truth of the ability or not, it's truly anyone guess. After viewing the 'Bobasaurus', it opened up Jakob's mind to exactly how disgusting and warped living mass can truly be.
