Blanche cuts their finger and from three drops of their blood, three crows are born. They speak Gaelic and broken English and like to hide in the shadows or in Blanche's coat until given a specific command.
Names: Banba, Fodla, and Eriu
Exert your Mind and spend an Action.
Summon up to 3 Sapient crows at your location. They last for two hours or until they move more than 150 feet from you or are destroyed. They are controlled by the GM but will follow any commands you give. You may have at most 3 minions active at a time.
Anyone who witnesses you during this Effect's activation or for its duration will almost certainly be disturbed to see The blood offering sizzles and pops on the ground, and three fleshy masses burst from the site. They first look like horrid baby birds, then begin to grow bone muscle and then skin and feathers in the span of a few seconds..
The Passenger rips forward out of the host's flesh, spraying the ground and anyone near with warm blood. It surges forward, carrying all of its malice and anger to pierce straight through any who stand before it. Though The Passenger itself is about a liter of crimson, the activation of this ability releases a torrent of blood that can be easily controlled and manipulated by its host. The dark red stays close to the host, not usually moving beyond five feet from the host, but the extra manifested blood can be controlled up to 30 feet away.
While the host remains competent and capable, The Passenger will behave, being as vicious or soft as its controller requires. It does not, however, tolerate failures, and when its host cannot meet its demands, it attempt to find another, more suitable host to augment.
The Passenger can be destroyed or stolen in a number of ways:
* Injecting the host with anticoagulants.
* Sucking it out of the part of the body that it inhabits.
* Severing the limb that it inhabits.
* Something able to grapple incorporeal creatures should be able to pull The Passenger out of its host.
* Once dead, The Passenger will burst out of the host's body to find a new host.
Exert your Mind and spend an Action. You must use up 1 Liter of Blood in order to activate this Effect.
You gain an additional limb that functions as a standard human arm and hand. Lasts two hours.
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.
Your extra appendage can be used to attack in exactly the same manner as a Thrusting Sword.
Your appendage is capable of bending and squishing in normally-impossible ways. It may fit through any gap that is not water-tight and retain its functionality.
Your extra appendage can stretch to reach an additional 30 feet.
You may turn this Effect on and off at will during its duration.
Your extra appendage is not connected to your nervous or circulatory systems, and you will not take damage if it is hit by an attack or destroyed.
Your appendage has its own agenda (to Find a Better Host), which it will attempt to follow. You must roll Self-Control to reassert control when this occurs. If this occurs during Combat, it gets its own dice pool, and stopping it costs your entire Action.
Joey straightens his arms out, almost as if embracing the world, his right leg slightly over his left leg. Looking into the sky, eyes closed. His Holy cross shining as light seems to converge on him enveloping him in a cocoon before it slowly disappears, leaving Joey with his hair spiked up, a bright yellow, and his eyes seemingly burning with intent.
Despite Joey being a rather odd person overall, he is still a surprisingly good priest, praying consistently, his God, blessing him with his greatest desire, to pick up anime character powers!
Exert your Mind and spend an Action. You must actively and obviously use Holy Cross to activate this Effect.
You transform into Super saiyan for 30 minutes. You have access to all of your Powers while you are Super saiyan, and you can use your equipment.

Your alternate form is its own deadly weapon. Unarmed attacks made in your alternate form deal +3 Weapon Damage (instead of the typical -1).

If you become Incapacitated or suffer an Injury Severity 4 or greater, this Effect ends.
Loyabard starts listing the reasons that someone might get excluded from a jury. While doing so the words spew out of his mouth and run in tiny invisible streams of text outwards to range. They peruse each possible target in range and relay information back to loyabard on the people that match the criteria.

A swarm of black and blue tiny robots burrow their way out of Polamedes arm and form into a latticework of interconnected drones with tiny arcs of electricity connecting them. The drones form a second skin adhering closely to Polamedes and feeding off his bodies bio-electricity to power the barrier. When the barrier successfully repels an attack the energy is stored and redirected as a lash of blue black lightning at whatever sent the initial attack.
Exert your Mind and spend an Action or Reaction. Roll Intellect + Technology at Difficulty 6.
If you succeed, you create a Barrier extending out 15 feet from yourself, which absorbs 2 times the next (Outcome +6) Damage. Only applies to attacks which originated outside the 15 foot radius, and protects anyone who is within that radius. The Damage reduction from the barrier is applied before Armor. 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. As long as it does not fall, the barrier regenerates back to full strength at the end of each Round of combat.
Anyone who witnesses you during this Effect's activation or for its duration will almost certainly be disturbed to see Tiny bugs burrowing into skin and eating flesh..
Any successful musician knows the value of a good roadie. The musician calls for a roadie, and one will promptly arrive. The roadie doesn't talk much, and they aren't too bright, but they can sure haul gear.

You transform into your own corpse for one minute. While transformed, you may control the functioning of the object you have transformed into. You can perceive your surroundings as normal. You can be targeted as a Non-Living, Sapient Object.

You may end this Effect prematurely as a Free Action.
The beastmaster shouts, and their human voice cracks into a deep, bestial roar. Their body swells with muscle, clothes melting into a thick pelt of fur. Seconds later the beastmaster is gone. Standing in their place is a massive grizzly bear.
However, even in human form the beast within remains close to the surface, and the beastmaster finds highly civilized social situations unbearable.
Exert your Mind and spend an Action.
