===Lineage/Family Special Traits===

'''Slipping off the Mask:''' Bleed 1 curse die; for rest of scene looks somewhat like an alien, gain 1 hit before the roll on influence actions against anyone who sees me in the scene, can levitate, immune to ''Critical Hits'', enables the Reticulan Nerve Pinch, an unarmed attack to incapacitate rather than harm (unarmed attacks gain +1 Enhancement and the ''Worn'', ''Silent'', & ''Stunning'' tags).

'''Motif:''' When casting a spell with the ''Physical'' attunement, bleed 1 additional curse die to manifest a physical aspect of your liminal state that grants a +1 Enhancement that stacks to all appropriate actions for the rest of the scene.

==Backstory==
"Earl" is originally from Reticulan ("Grey Alien") forbears. Only he's not like the Greys who create crop circles, perform cattle mutilations, and conduct nocturnal abductions for illicit research and experimentation. Instead, he's ethical. And thus, essentially an outcast among Outcasts. He left the normal Greys to hide benevolently amongst humans, and has since made a life for himself as SM&M's IT Manager.
