Extras

Name: Voodoo Charm

Function: Protective Talisman

Stunts:

Danger Sense: The charm provides its wearer with a preternatural capacity for detecting danger. As long as the charm is being worn the wearer's Notice skill works unimpeded by conditions like total concealment, darkness or other sensory impairments in situations where someone or something intends to harm them.

Luck be a Lady: Once per scene you can spend a Fate point to create a Temporary Advantage or Boost. This is automatic--no roll needed. The Advantage is free-taggable by your character or any other character you designate.

Permission: Aspect Slot Indicating the Favor of a Voodoo Loa(s)

Cost: One Refresh


Stunts

One Blackbelt in Barstool: Virtually anything can be a lethal weapon in your hands, as long as you can comfortably and casually lift it. You never need to spend a fate point in order to declare that an improvised weapon is close at hand, unless your surroundings have been deliberately prepared against this (such as a prison cell).


Two Sharp-Eyed Lady: Once per scene you can spend a fate point (and a few minutes of observation) to make a special Investigate roll representing your potent deductive faculties. For each shift you make on this roll you discover or create an aspect, on either the scene or the target of your observations, though you may only invoke one of them for free.


Three Try Saying That To My Face: You can use Investigate instead of Empathy to defend against Deceive attempts. What others discover through gut reactions and intuition, you learn through careful observation of micro-expressions.


Four They Call Me the Voodoo Woman : You get a +2 to all Ritual rolls relating to Voodoo and African/African Disapora Occultism.
