=Traits= ==Calling Ability== '''Collateral''' ''You have a knack for getting behind someone else when things kick off.'' Once per session, allocate stress to the nearest friendly target (PC or NPC) instead of marking it yourself. ==Core Abilities== '''The Hive''' ''The sweetlings nest within your body.'' Some of your organs are replaced with complex copies made from wax by industrious bees. They live within you β a few at first, but as you grow in power, great swarms. Their curious buzzing aligns your mind with the Hive. At the beginning of each situation, clear all Mind stress as incipient madness flows through you and into the Hive. You can never benefit from Mind protection or remove stress from Mind, aside from using this ability. '''Release the Swarm''' ''You send out a swarm of bees, eager to defend you.'' Gain access to the following weapon: (Kill D4 (upgraded to D6, Spread, Ranged; See '''Delirium Spike'''). ==Major Abilities== '''Delirium Spike''' ''The sacred majesty of the Hive fills you with fizzing, unstable power.'' The stress inflicted by your RELEASE THE SWARM ability increases to D6. The first time you inflict stress using RELEASE THE SWARM in a situation, add your Mind stress to the stress inflicted on the target. After the action is resolved, reduce your Mind stress to 0. This supersedes the normal limitations on removing Mind stress outlined in THE HIVE. ==Minor Abilities== '''A Perfect Machine''' ''You see that cogs, gears and engines are just echoes of the infinite, staggering majesty that is the Hive.'' Gain the Technology domain. Given time, you can repair technological devices even if you donβt have the right parts: you synthesise them from wax and extruded bone. '''Intoxicant''' ''Pheromone glands pucker and blossom on your wrists and neck; you are alluring, irresistible, almost soporific.'' Gain the Compel skill. Once per session, when you talk to someone for five minutes or more, you convince them to revert to their basest impulses. They become driven solely by lust, hunger or a need for shelter β whichever they desire most right now. '''Many Eyes''' ''Each of your companions is a vessel for your sight.'' Gain the Discern skill. When you stand still and close your eyes, you can see through the eyes of any of your bees, allowing you to spy around corners or look into closed spaces. You canβt control the bees directly, but you have enough at your disposal to cover the area around you. ==Skills== Mend Compel Discern ==Domains== '''Occult''' '''Technology''' ==Resources== Heartsbloom rose in a glass jar (D6 Occult, Fragile) ==Equipment== Hive Tool (Kill D4, Brutal) Dimensional Barometer (Delve D6) The Mask of Obedient Servitude A book of unsolved mathematical equations. Originally intended for passing or decyphering messages, the Aelfir gave it back to her with a spiteful smirk, when they sent her down into Heart. Or at least she imagines they did. Behind those masks, who can tell? Knotted weave of string that describes your grandmother. Grand-damm Aaeedah was a magnificent bitch, a towering figure of a woman who rules over her vastly extended clan with a honey-smeared claw; sweet, but nasty. Sakinah doesn't know what happened to her - she was just gone, one day, and nobody would speak of her except to flinch and gesture towards the shadows as if to ward off evil.
