Summon You can call a creature from a place of your power. This is generally an unwilling servant. It will obey one command from you and this can be extended. Learning who to summon may require study or be a a score in itself.	Gate You can create a portal that allows travel to and from the plane of your power for a limited time.

Translate You and allies can communicate with creatures based on your power.	Authority You can give commands to creatures based on your power, as if you were their superior. This does not remove existing loyalties, which can lead to conflicts.	Enslave You can permanently bind creatures to service. Unless affected by other powers, they will stay in one location and act according to your instructions, like very loyal and literal-minded goons.
Consort	Mask You can change your clothes and accessories by imbuing them with your power. This can mask your identity or create fabulous outfits.

You can move and breathe in conditions manifesting your power without damage or hindrance.	Fine Local Control You can use the power as a fine and potent close-range attack, similar in effect to a fine potent dueling sword or pistol, or you can give your friends the Ride ability for the duration of a score.

This allows you to open doors, trigger or hinder mechanisms, or perform other minor manipulations, as long as the target is appropriate to your power.

Fine Ranged Attack You can use your power to attack, similar in effect to a fine and potent rifle.	Area attack You can use your power to attack similar to a fine and potent grenade. This allows you to fight many creatures in the same area very effectively, but there is a risk of collateral damage.	Barrage You call down the equivalent of a fine potent artillery barrage, attacking everything and everyone in a wide area. Depending on your power, this can raze buildings and create rubble. Usually enough to provide cover for any escape.
Prowl	Reconnaissance You can hide in environments linked to your power. This allows you to hide in impossible places as long as the environment manifests your power. You gain advantage when sneaking on creatures linked to your power.	Maneuver You can move on and through environments composed of your environment. This allows you to climb on air, swim unhindered, walk through walls of the appropriate material and so on, depending on your exact power.	Travel You can bring allies along when you use Reconnaissance and Maneuver.	Transport You and allies can teleport from one location where your power is present to another. This is regional travel, you stay within the same city or region, but it is generally sufficient to enter or escape just about any situation or location.
Skirmish	Skirmish Attack You can use the power as a close-range attack, similar in effect to a melee weapon or pistol.	Fine Skirmish Attack Same as Skirmish Attack, except the weapon is fine and potent.

Study	Analyze You can identify objects and creatures that manifest your power and see the use of the abilities of your power.	Research You know the powers and abilities of something you analyze.	Hindsight You can read the past events of something you analyze. This includes previous owners and how the object has been moved around as well as significant scenes.	Omniscience You research everything in a wide area. This is easy to do where you are, more difficult at range. You can then use hindsight on some of these targets.
Survey	Detect You can sense manifestations of your power at a distance and understand their general nature. This works even when you can't see the target, but both range and information suffers.	Sensor Choose an object manifesting your power that you have detected; you can perceive as if you were at that spot. You cannot use your Survey action for anything else when doing so.	Scry Choose a location or creature. You gain a sensor at the nearest suitable object, which is often close enough to perceive the target.	Omnipresence You perceive from all objects manifesting your power at once over a wide area. As long as you concentrate you retain this perception and can report what you see to others.

Common suggestions are to steal something, attack someone, or ignore some event. This is a subtle power, but easier to spot once triggered.

The target remember their past, but regard it as unimportant compared to their new motivations.
Tinker	Handle You can handle materials that manifest your power as if you had the appropriate tools and protective devices.	Shape You can shape materials that manifest your power as if they were of clay, and they will retain their new shape for some time even if they would normally not, such as water, sand or smoke.

This can create complex tools, such as fine and potent items appropriate to the power(s) used.	Fabricate This is similar to create, above, but you mass produce objects, even a set of different objects. You can also make something large, such as a vehicle or building.
Wreck	Jimmy You can jimmy objects manifesting your power much like a sledgehammer. Noisy and leaves a twisted object in place.	Smash Similar to jimmy. When smashing objects from your power, such as metallic objects for the metal power, you to affect hard objects as if they were wood. Works as a fine potent sledgehammer in combat.
