Cannibalize

Type: Simple Action
The adversary can absorb and project an Accursed’s power back at them. If it successfully inflicts 1 damage in close combat, the adversary gains access to one (Storyguide’s choice) of the character’s spells and denies the character access to their spell until it’s used, the adversary is dead, or the scene ends. If this spell has a dice pool requirement for use, the adversary uses their primary pool to activate it. The adversary never has to hold or bleed curse dice to activate spells. The absorbed spell can be used once within the scene and must be absorbed again for a subsequent use. For each new use of this Dread Power, the adversary can steal a different spell.
