Blood Drain

Trigger Action (Finisher)

Select one attribute of the target. If that attribute is higher than your score in the same attribute, you temporarily increase your own attribute by two points, but not to a value higher than the target's. The attribute boost lasts one day. You can only use Blood Drain once per day on any particular creature.

False Life

Stance

You can take three additional Hits before being defeated. If you drop this stance while having taken more hits than you can normally do, you are knocked out.

Ghost Walk

Basic Action

You can walk trough material objects, such as walls, using them to hide. You cannot walk trough any living living substance, bedrock, or moving water. This allows you to Sneak inside any material object large enough to hold you, as well as by moving through walls to hide on the other side. You can peek out from inside an object, and even jump out to attack, just as you could from ordinary cover. You cannot perform actions other than observing, hiding, and moving while inside an object.

Life Drain

Trigger Action (Finisher)

The target takes a Damage Setback, quite likely killing it. You recover either one Hits, one Fortune point, or become Focused. If the target's Mind is the same or higher than your own, you can instead opt to become a year younger. You can only use Life Drain once per day on any particular creature.

Life Immunity

Inherent

Become resistant to extremes of temperature, disease, poison, lack of food water or air and other discomforting environmental conditions. Add your Mind to your soak attribute against biological damage. The same bonus applies to your Body when doing endurance feats, such as resisting uncomfortable environments. In an environment where you could not normally survive at all, such as if there is no air, you can still survive a number of minutes equal to your modified Body.

This power is commonly inherent in nonliving creatures, such as robots Robots or Undead.

Steal Skill

Trigger Action (Finisher)

The target takes a Damage Setback, quite likely killing it. You gain temporary access to one skill and two related schticks the victim had. For the duration of the current story, you can use his skill value instead of your own (if it is better) and learn two schticks related to that skill the target had. If you know the proper forms, you can learn powers instead of schticks. This power does not stack, when you use it any previously stolen skill is lost.

Undead Form

Limit Break

You assume the form of another creature decided when you gain the power. You must have created a variant form for yourself using your normal points and limits. If you do not have such a creature description ready, you cannot use this power. This creature cannot have higher value in any particular skill than you do. You can add powers of the same form the creature has and keep schticks and powers you already have, but you cannot otherwise add powers or schticks. This power cannot be used to imitate a specific individual; you remain yourself in mannerisms and detail while changing race, species, and creature type.

You remain in this form for a scene or until you fall asleep or unconscious or will yourself back to your normal form (a Basic Action). You can learn this power several times to learn to transform into several different creatures.

You can only assume the form on an Undead with this version of the power.
