Virtuoso The mind of a modern day Renaissance man.
To be a master artisan requires knowledge in all sorts of pursuits. Science, painting, engineering, architecture, philosophy, and more. Dedicating countless hours of his life to achieve this ideal, Bryan's cognitive abilities have reached new heights, allowing him to view situations from a multitude of angles and recall information from a variety of fields.
You gain the following benefits at all times.
Your Intellect rating is increased by 3. You may Exert your Mind to automatically gain an Outcome of 5 on any roll that uses Intellect (Cannot be used on combat rolls or Power activations).
Possession of this Power grants the following Trauma at all times: Delusions of Grandeur: As one of the world's greatest minds and greatest artists, you believe yourself to be the very best, superior to anyone else you meet. You must succeed a Self-Control roll in order to believe something or take an action which contradicts this delusion and Opportunist: You are always looking for opportunities to gain more status, power, fame, etc. Whenever there is the potential to receive a considerable amount of compensation or reward for your work, you must succeed a Self-Control roll in order to resist shamelessly pursuing the opportunity.
You also gain the following effects:
- Brilliant Deduction: You may spend five minutes pondering an enigma, puzzle, or mystery, and roll Intellect at Difficulty 8. Success will reveal a clue or other tidbit that you have otherwise missed. Limit once per enigma.

- Never Forget: You have a perfect photographic memory, and can recall or recreate even complex and detailed things. If you forget something you had previously seen or noticed, you may ask the GM and they will remind you.
- Prodigy: Whenever you witness someone get an Outcome of 6 or higher, or someone demonstrates an Ability with the intent of teaching you, you may Exert your Mind. If you do, rolls using that Ability use their rating instead of your own for the next day.
- Sheer Willpower: You may Exert your Mind up to three times per Round, including multiple times for each roll.
- Insufferable Know-It-All: Any social rolls you make are at +1 Difficulty, and if someone else can answer an informational question or solve a puzzle before you do, make a Trauma roll. The Difficulty of this Trauma roll cannot be reduced by any means.
- Being Injured or interrupted in some way can still break your Concentration.
- When you exert multiple times, if you have the Enhancement Push Through It, the lingering Outcome bonus is limited to +1.
- Attribute bonuses from multiple sources do not stack. Instead the highest bonus is used.

Gen-Wyld: Beyond Natural
On March 14, 2018, a little-known company named Gen-Wyld announced FDA approval for a groundbreaking procedure to enhance a patient’s primary and secondary sexual characteristics using gene therapy. The company was an overnight success.
Shortly thereafter, they introduced a suite of gene-altering body modification procedures that allowed patients to make dramatic aesthetic changes to their bodies by gene-splicing “non-human” anatomy. Those daring (and wealthy) enough can now add cuttlefish pigmentation to their skin, sport a pair of fox ears, and even add a functional tail. While rare, these so-called “modders” draw plenty of hate from conservative communities.
Thanks to their revolutionary procedures, Gen-Wyld is now a household name. Norman Carlson, Gen-Wyld’s chief evangelist, recently announced the company is in the trial phase for a groundbreaking treatment for diabetes.
Yet despite their success, a shroud of secrecy surrounds Gen-Wyld. Their no-patent policy obscures the secrets of their procedures from the public eye. Financial experts claim that Gen-Wyld is run less like a traditional business and more like an NGO with some specific, unknown objective.
Some claim that they will not stop until humanity has been reduced to monstrous slaves and that Gen-Wyld’s board of directors will install themselves as inhuman overlords of the new world order.
However, until the true secrets behind Gen-Wyld are discovered, the genetic biotech firm will continue to grow, develop, and progress its grand designs.

Revelations
Blessed is the one who reads aloud the words of this prophecy, and blessed are those who hear it and take to heart what is written in it, because the time is near.
Anthony bears a brand on his forehead in the shape of the inverted cross. On close inspection, the brand seems to smoulder faintly while he is deep in thought, and almost seems to emit a faint light.
The source of Anthony's preternatural genius is not his own - it is the Lord. Through his brand, the Lord offers visions and insights to Anthony: never anything precise or anything complete, but enough that they allow him to make leaps of logic impossible to normal people, and to think, act, and respond quicker than is humanly possible, as his thoughts are completed by the Lord in the same span as he has them. The knowledge almost always comes in metaphor or visions, never direct conclusions, and serves less to provide completely new information to Anthony than to highlight details or make connections between things he already knows, but would be unable to combine on his own.
You gain the following benefits as long as you have your scar in the shape of the inverted cross on your forehead.
