	A cosmetic modification. With skin graft, you can look like anyone or anything with a basic body shape similar to your own. You cannot turn into a baby or a crocodile using this system, but can change your body mass from half to double normal. The operation takes a few days of hospitalization, so appearance cannot be changed on a whim, but if you also have [[#Face Dance\|Face Dance]], your entire bodily appearance can be changed at a whim. A change in mass means you have to ingest or expel the relevant amount of matter, generally water but extreme changes require a nutrient broth.		A cosmetic modification.

	Pheromone control allows you to manipulate nearby people by means of pheromones. Pheromones are scent-like substances used by people and animals to communicate on a subconscious level. Manipulation on such a primal level can be dangerous, lending itself best to inducing needs that can be immediately gratified. If you try to induce subtle feelings or long-lasting relationships, Pheromone Control may backfire. It is thus best used to get into someone's close presence, where normal [[Charm (Action)\|Charm]] can ~~proceed~~. ~~This only works against creatures whose racial pheromone sets have been programmed into~~ the ~~unit~~, and ~~anyone with~~ a ~~breather mask or somehow otherwise immune~~ to ~~poison or inhaled gases can ignore it~~.		With an opposed [[Charm (Action)\|Charm]] roll, you can create a social connection between you and another person within reach. That person will focus his attention on you, for good or bad. Depending on the mood, this might involve sex, combat, or just conversation. He will ignore normal distractions and is generally willing to follow you a short way in order to interact there.
