Default Re: 50-point Abilities

Salamanders' Curse (+395%): Affliction 1 (HT; Cosmic: Can Target Through Symbolic Representation, +50%; Disadvantage: Fragile, Combustible and Flammable, +15%; Disadvantage: Vulnerability, Burning Attacks, Common, x4, +60%; Extended Duration, x300, +100%, Malediction, Long Distance, +200%; No Signature, +20%; Onset, One Hour, -20%; Preparation Required, Ten Minutes, -30%) [50].

Makes the target (which can be a person or an inanimate object, like a building) very vulnerable to fire. In order to activate the attack, the user must burn a symbolic representation of the target (a photograph, piece of hair or close personal possession, for instance) and perform a ten minute ceremony. Within an hour, the target becomes extremely flammable, as though they had been soaked in petrol. This effect lasts for five hours for every point that the target failed their resistance roll. The cosmic enhancement removes the requirement for the user to be able to directly perceive the target.

Feast of Flesh (+65%): Affliction 3 (HT-2; Blood Agent, -40%; Disadvantage: Restricted Diet: Human Flesh, Substitution: Raw Meat, +10%; Disadvantage: Uncontrollable Appetite: Cannibalism, +15%; Delay, Triggered, +50%; Extended Duration, Permanent, +150%; Low Signature, +10%; Melee Attack, Reach C, Cannot Parry, -35%, Onset, One Day, -30%, Preparation Required, One Hour, -50%, Trigger, Common But Illegal, -15%) [50].

The user prepares a meal including human flesh as one of the ingredients. When this is eaten, the target must make a HT-2 roll or become compelled to eat nothing but human flesh until the curse is lifted by eating the heart of someone who loves you.

Fairy Fog (+525%): Obscure (Vision) 4 (Area Effect, 8 Yard Radius, +50%; Extended Duration, Five Minutes, +60%; Homing, Dark Vision, +75%; Mobile, Move 5, +200%; Ranged, +50%; Stealthy, +100%; Takes Extra Time, Sixteen Seconds to Ready, -20%; Terminal Condition, Skill Roll, -10%) [50].

Summons an invisible cloud which follows whatever target the user specifies. Although the cloud can not be seen, it obscures vision, making it easy to lose track of things, especially if vision is already impaired by darkness or mist. This can rapidly lead to anyone targeted by one of these clouds becoming hopelessly lost. Fortunately, a roll against a suitable skill will reveal a simple solution, such as turning your coat inside out or reciting a prayer, which will cause the cloud to dissipate.
