MIDAS TOUCH

Cost: Imbue 1 Legend
Duration: Indefinite
Subject: One character
Range: Short
Action: Simple
You curse a character so that a touch of their hands transforms objects into a precious material of your choice. Gold’s the standard, but you could go with silver, electrum, diamond — whatever, as long as it’s pretty, desirable, and not super useful on its own. This is a Condition that presents logistical challenges to any action with their hands: Steering wheels lock into place, phones become useless bricks, and food turns to treasure with precious little nutritional value. This transformation fades at the end of the scene, leaving the object mostly unharmed. It’s a small relief that the
Condition provides one Momentum when it significantly inconveniences or endangers the cursed character or someone they care about. You may choose a general condition that will resolve the Condition, such as when the target makes amends for a crime; otherwise, it lasts for as long as the Legend is imbued. This Boon is free when used against trivial targets.
Adversary Specific: Hands Off: When you lay this curse, you may name a character the target loves, forbidding them from touching. If they do, the character suffers a level of damage as their flesh is partially transmuted into precious material. Unlike for objects, this transformation doesn’t reverse until the curse is lifted; if the character dies, they are transformed forevermore.
