 | Ever Alluring I  || The bearer has an enhanced constitution, staying strong and healthy in conditions where others would wilt and fall ill. Scars never remain, disease rarely seems to visibly touch the bearer, and he/she recovers from injuries much faster than the average member of their race. The bearer seems to age more slowly, though the effect is superficial rather than biological. In addition, everyone encountered is subconsciously attracted to the bearer, even those of incompatible sexual orientation. Those of alternate tastes may not feel compelled to flirt or pursue the marked, but the spark of incomprehensible arousal, however slight, is there all the same.

 | Thespian  || While some other gods would demand their followers master their emotions, Syroa favors a more elusive approach to the solution of the human heart.With this blessing, the bearer is able to adopt and discard feelings and emotions as he or she sees fit, turning the human heart from a liability into one of its greatest, most controlled assets. This ability is even somewhat effective against Empathy, although experts and masters can overtax a Sesser just as fast as they discard. At the end of the trial, however, the bearer has to feel again; everything 'real' comes rushing back in their sleep as a jumbled mess. Syroa's chosen don't have nightmares; they simply face the ugly reality of their mindscape in their dreams.

 | Fury's Wake || When some people are enraged, they become capable of surpassing their ordinary feats of strength. Typically this is the result of emotion overriding the natural inhibitor a mortal has against injuring themselves with their own power. For Syroa, however, fury IS strength. When her Adored have reason to be furious, their physical strength and durability tend to rise steeply. While an ordinary mortal might be able to lift a bit more than normal and shrug off some blows, an Adored finds that the more wrathful they become, the more their skin becomes like armor and their limits are forgotten. Regrettably, like many of Syroa's blessings there is a catch. Most who give in to anger do not have sound judgement. Rather than spare her Adored this lapse, Syroa encourages it and the chaos it brings. As the Adored can become ever more furious, their judgement can grow ever more distorted. Easily capable of doubling an ordinary mortal's physical capabilities, the marked must keep a tight grip on their temper. If they pass the point of reason they will become destruction incarnate, crushing all in their path until exhaustion wears them out in a few breaks. Some especially gifted marked have used this ability to remain in a state of constant annoyance, flaring up when necessary to give them an edge in combat.

 | Transformer's Toolbox [Moderate]  || With the amount of practice a marked has put into this school, they are now capable of transforming their face entirely. They can alter beauty marks, body skin color, and general facial structure. In addition they are capable of transforming their body, within their species confines. Gender, height, and weight can be altered by moderate degrees. It does not take much time and many marked use it as a means of hiding themselves within a crowd, stalking prey, and providing the exact desires that someone may want in their significant other. When hunted, it is a skill that allows them to be easily lost by their hunters. They can turn a corner and almost instantaneously look like someone else. A intelligent marked will often wear layers of clothing so they can shed cloaks and appear entirely different than what they had appeared as before. These changes cannot be held indefinitely and tend to be easy to keep for at least a trial (Depending on the complexity and amount of changes) but mount in difficulty from there. An Adored with high endurance could perhaps hold such changes for much longer than intended.

 | Beast Within  || The Sessfiend is the iconic monster of Syroa's whimsy. Transformation and rage are their domains and their power is terrifying. Most have no control when they take the form of a Sessfiend and rampage the entire evening of their transformation. For an exalted of Syroa, the transformation can be called upon once a cycle with a modicum of control. The taste and hunger for blood is impossible to escape in this shape, but those who use this ability can meld their waking mind with that of the beast inside and direct its actions. It's never complete control, but an exalted has the remarkable capability to direct the beast from objective to objective and retain the memories of their rampage upon waking. This power can be invoked, like the curse, but once or twice a Cycle. Once is easy for meld and control, twice pushes the boundary of that control. Most Sessers will only take this shape once a Cycle to avoid losing themselves to the thing within.

-| Grifter's skills III  || Add an extra nine skill points to any of the following skills: Acting, Intimidation, Seduction, or Persuasion. Add an extra two knowledge pertaining to the relevant skill. These skill points can exceed the 100 cap.

 | Tainted Love  || Lust and infatuation is often confused for love. While Syroa cannot measure to the purity of Vri's domain, few mortals are so scrupulous as to be able to tell the difference. Tainted Love is named in mockery of her older brother's domain and Syroa takes great pleasure in the fact her realm offers a destructive and often common reflection of the love Vri seeks to emulate. Tainted Love is a directed sort of curse and is sealed with a kiss. The exalted may create a false connection within the mind of his or her intended. The victim will find that a strong and nearly irresistible attraction will grow within them toward the exalted. Most do not fight this power and those that do struggle against the chains of emotional and physical need. The exalted dominates their daydreams and tantalizes their nights. Only one such bond can be active at any time, although the exalted is certainly welcome to pursue relationships not created with this power. The victim will act with jealousy, possessiveness, and the more the exalted plays into the 'lie' of their relationship the stronger this power will be.
