Graveborn "The dead do not rest, and neither shall I."

3
You possess an augmented or inhuman body.
Used by Johnny Bones?, Created by Noralius.
(Your specific augmentation must be physically visible in some way, but it does not need to make you appear outwardly monstrous or socially unacceptable. )

A cold blue-green glow pulses faintly within your bones, flickering like dying embers in the dark. When you move, the light shifts and flows through your joints like spectral fire, casting unnatural shadows. The air around you hums with an eerie presence—distant whispers coil at the edge of perception, restless and filled with sorrow. They are the voices of the lost, fragments of lives that ended long before yours began. Whether they seek to guide you or drag you down with them, you do not yet know.

You gain the following benefits at all times.

You are permanently and visibly transformed: Skeleton. You are considered to be a Sapient, Non-Living being when targeted. Your Brawn is increased by 1, your Dexterity is increased by 1, your Perception is increased by 1, your Charisma is increased by 1, and your Intellect is increased by 1.

No single organ in your body is critical for life. Called Shots do no additional Damage to you. You may perceive the world through separated body parts, take Actions with them, and reattach them by spending an Action and Exerting your Mind.

Your Injuries no longer degrade with time. You do not age naturally, and supernatural attempts to age you fail.

Possession of this Power grants the following Battle Scar: Skeleton atair (Disfigured).

Possession of this Power grants the following Trauma at all times: The dream of the Dead (Nightmares).

The Severity of any Injury caused by Holy Magic or Holy forged Weapons is increased by 2.

  • Detached parts move at 5 feet per Round. You may activate awareness Effects through detached sensory organs. This does not grant extra Actions.
  • You must still perform some equivalent of eating, sleeping, and drinking unless other Effects allow you to ignore that requirement.
  • The increase in Injury Severity stacks with any similar effects, such as the Silver Bullets drawback on Regeneration.
  • Attribute bonuses from multiple sources do not stack. Instead the highest bonus is used.
