Crucible of Life
Limit Break
You can create artificial life, a chimera, an amalgam of physical and mental abilities from different creatures. You can only create physical, living creatures this way; Plants, Plant Elemental, Animal, or Folk. The sum of the creature's attributes can be no higher than your powers skill; it is rare to see a chimera with much in the way of Mind.
The creature created this way is barely alive; while it goes through the motions of life, it is a sterile automaton. It lacks motivation of its own, but will obey your orders without enthusiasm. To truly make the creature live takes Spark of Life. Of course, if all you want is a powerful bodyguard or servant, this is not needed, and it even lessens your control over it.
Finally, it can be used to repair and animate dead bodies, making them living automatons.
Spark of Life
Limit Break
This brings a spark of life to a dead matter. It can be used on someone who has been revived by Awaken the Dead as long as the body has been repaired enough that it is viable, and can also be used to give life to a body created with Fleshcraft or grown with Crucible of Life.
This is a highly dangerous power, and the creature brought to life often suffers from some defect. In other cases, the creator is overcome with revulsion for his new project. It is mostly included as a plot device. Also note that a creature awakened this way is not sentient; at best it can function on an animal level of intelligence. Greater intelligence that that requires the Flower of Knowledge power.
The Master's Voice
Trigger Action (Focus)
If someone else takes a Basic Action to praise you, you can use this schtick to focus. This can always be used in front of an appreciative audience, whose constant praise you thrive on. Outside of action scenes, it takes 5 minutes to focus this way.
Trauma Symbiote
Inherent
This power grants you additional life force. Once per session, it can absorb one hit you would otherwise take. You can have several separate trauma symbiotes. It does not work for unnamed characters.
