'''Conditions:'''<br>

'''Who were you before?'''
None<br>
+
Activist, idealist, musician. Damascus was actually AJ's stage name before the change.
  
'''Bonuses:'''<br>
+
'''When did you change? What caused it?'''
+1 Forward against HCPD Lead Investigator<br>
+
A few months ago, at a protest outside Rook Industries. A couple of villains called Magpie and Packrat used the protest as a distraction to steal some experimental nanotech, and some of Rook's metahuman security tried to stop them. Containment was breached during the ensuing firefight and she got millions of dollars' worth of nanobots in the face, swiftly bonding with her cells and remaking her into a stronger form.
  
'''Potential:'''<br>
+
'''Who, outside of the team, is helping you understand your new body?'''
0/5<br>
+
Doctor Alison Knight, formerly the superhero Argent Knight. Dr Knight is a more conventional cyborg, an expert in mind/machine interfaces, and was a consultant on Rook's nanotech project. She feels guilty for her part in what happened.
  
'''Advances:'''<br>
+
'''Why don’t you just try to hide yourself away?'''
Take a move from another playbook<br>
+
Never did before, not going to start now. I always wanted to do some good in the world, even if this wasn't how I wanted it.
  
'''Who were you before?'''<br>
+
'''Why do you care about the team?'''
Activist, idealist, musician. Damascus was actually AJ's stage name before the change.<br>
+
They don't look at me like a freak, or a science experiment, or a machine. They don't fear me or pity me. We may not always get on, but we're equals.

You try not to care what other people think, even if you can’t shut everyone out. Give Influence to one teammate.

I am not my body: When you take a powerful physical blow, you may roll as if you had two fewer conditions marked. If you do, on a 10+ you must choose to lose control of yourself in a terrible way.
  
'''Why do you care about the team?'''<br>
+
Coming for you: When you mark a condition, take +1 forward against the person you most blame for causing it.

Wish I could be: When you comfort or support someone, if you tell them what you most envy about them, you can roll + Freak instead of + Mundane.

Spelunker knew you before you changed.<br>

Super tech: When you alter a device with your technology, roll +Freak. On a hit, you create a device that can do something impossible once and then fizzle. When you roll a 10+, choose one: it works exceptionally well or you get an additional use out of it. On a miss, the device works, but it has a completely unintended side effect that the GM will reveal when you use it.
