Default Cruor Source and Cruor Powers

Cruor is the name for a mystical source that allows its practitioners to develop abilities that function through manipulating their blood, through manipulating the blood of its targets, and through creating connections between their blood and the blood of its targets. Cruor is a -50% power modifier because its practitioners risk suffering Backlash, Agony, Resisted by HT, -50%, whenever they activate their abilities (plus every minute after activation for sustained abilities) due to the potential feedback associated with using their abilities. Cruor powers include Animal Control, Body Control, Healing, Telepathy, and Vampirism from Powers and Disease, Dream/Nightmare, Fear, Madness, and Taint from Horror.

Cruor is mostly likely found within horror campaigns and supers campaigns, it is more popular among antagonists than it is among protagonists, though it can be found within any dark or grim campaign. The backlash associated with its use means that its practitioners often have high HT (to avoid the effects of the backlash) and/or High Pain Threshold (to deal with the effects of the backlash). Practitioners without either do not tend to survive for long as the terrible pain from using their own abilities cause them to commit suicide.
