Permanent trait: when a capability inflicts a status condition on the caster via Strain feedback, the trauma is converted into an environmental hazard. Health unchanged; surroundings shift.
Passive sensitivity to psychic residue. Notices magical influence within the last hour + focus advantage on Awareness for detecting magical concealment.
Swearing an oath against a designated foe grants a Narrow Focus advantage on attacks vs that target. Augments another capability rather than standing alone.
Place one brief thought or message into a conscious mind within 30 ft, producing Private Address. The recipient recognizes a communication. Language and intelligibility matter; the message alone creates neither obedience nor a permanent communication network. Resolve unwilling contact as appropriate to the scene.
Remove a glove and sustain bare contact with an object to seek an emotional impression of a significant past use. The GM supplies whatever impression remains under the Touch Memory Impression permission. This cannot reconstruct every event or every handler, and cannot read a living mind. Ending the bare contact ends the attempt.
Help one willing person within 30 ft steady an existing emotional response for the owned Short Duration, producing Settled Nerves. State the specific emotional adjustment and its end before applying it. A hostile attempt to suppress emotion can be resisted. The composition supplies no universal calm bonus and does not remove the underlying danger.
Attend to one conscious mind within 30 ft to sense its surface thoughts and immediately apparent emotions. Receive Surface Echo as information. Resolve private or resisted information at the table; this attention cannot reveal an omniscient account of the target. Maintain the focused attention required by the declared action; interruptions and further contact are handled in the current scene.
Explore a particular recollection through focused conversation and psychic attention to one person within 30 ft, producing Borrowed Recollection. Cooperative recall may be straightforward; extracting private memories calls for an appropriate opposed resolution. Sustain the conversation and attention while exploring it. Unreliable or altered memory remains unreliable or altered; this cannot silently reconstruct an entire life.
Combine ordinary persuasion with attention to one person’s existing belief or emotional tension within 30 ft. Bring a particular Exposed Assumption into the conversation and use the actual Influence modifier, including the purchased +3 check contribution once. Agreement remains tied to the conversation and circumstances; this is not blanket control over the recipient.
A learned discipline that grants +PB Mental to self while its primitive is active. At level 10 PB is 4, so base Mental 5 becomes effective Mental 9. Every calculation that reads Mental uses that active value, including the selected DC, Mental saving throw, and Mental practices. Deactivating the primitive removes this same contribution everywhere. Reusing it in this capability and a heritage does not stack a second copy.
Declare a direct psychic assault against one target within 30 ft. Use the owned 1d10 output gate to resolve Psychic Impact, agreeing the actual output, scaling, and appropriate defense for the declared action. Resolve applicable resistance or vulnerability and apply the resulting Vitality change manually. This composition does not claim that the character sheet automatically executes damage.
Secure the named fixed anchor and hold the prepared stance. The conditional Physical save benefit concerns that anchored state and never changes DC.
Work through ordinary airborne ash and interpose compatible insulation against the stated heat source. Exposure and damage remain contextual; this creates no material.
Place a prepared barb through a successful normal contact action. The contextual wound has two manual 1d4 ticks ending early on removal and dressing; no extra attack is granted.
Set a rated line and belay before descending. The scoped Physical save bonus applies only during that descent; falls and overload are resolved at the table.
Place available insulation between the particular ordinary heat source and occupied shelter. Maintain the screen and frame; no typed fire immunity.
After the ordinary contact action succeeds, move a willing target or one that fails the appropriate save up to 5 ft into a clear adjacent space. The actor's one DC applies; no collision damage.
Prepare one identified mundane dose, record shelf life, and spend it during a normal treatment action. Roll 1d4 once and manually restore Vitality within normal limits.
Resolve a purchased Force action to pull one unattended object no heavier than 5 lb up to 10 ft toward the actor along a clear path. Record movement manually.
Ascend the named rough dry sound surface using purchased grip and conditional climbing speed. Wet, smooth, unstable, or disconnected footing ends the speed benefit.
Use purchased sound domain, delivery, and verb tier to repeat a heard sound once at a legal scene point. Listeners assess the false direction normally.
Inspect a willing patient's particular injury using carried supplies. The conditional Knowledge bonus helps diagnosis and ends when that task does.
Read an ordinary crossing and swim with the named fins fitted. The scoped speed benefit ends on removal or failure; currents remain real obstacles.
Secure an available rated float to the carried pack, then use the conditional +10 Swimming Speed while it remains attached. The float is equipment, not created material.
Resolve one purchased Light delivery against two legal named targets. Split the rolled 1d4 total as agreed before rolling rather than duplicating it; round any divided amounts up under SwordWeave convention. Resolve saves and Vitality manually.
Wet available ordinary fuel with carried water. The specific source resists ignition until dry; the table handles existing large fire and magical fuel.
Reassure a willing patient during the stated treatment. Resolve the scoped Influence check, roll the authored 1d4 treatment output, and update target Vitality manually.
Fracture one legal handspan of brittle mineral material. On the normal successful action roll 1d4 against the authored exposed contact target and apply Vitality manually; it neither creates glass nor grants a free cone of targets.
Hold still on connected ground and use the purchased 10-ft sense. The conditional Awareness bonus assists interpretation only; gaps and a motionless source can prevent detection.
Spend setup time and compatible carried wrap to prepare one usable handle. The effect grants its scoped +1 Attack only while the named wrap and tool condition is on.
