[DEAD] Alternate Promethean; It Lives

Liminal

Some berks just refuse to accept the inevitable, and rarely think of the consequences. Liminals are the result... bodies split open, reassembled, forced into a semblance of working order, and then forcibly reanimated. Usually because the creator could not accept the loss of a loved one, or sometimes out of mere curiosity. Liminals rarely if ever possess the personality that the mortal had before death.

Tell: The Liminal's stitches tighten, drawing the preserved features into terrifyingly stark relief. At higher levels, the digging sutures tear into the flesh, causing the ichor preserving them to flow as if bleeding.

Replace the following:

Living Construct with Deathless Cadaver

Integrated Armor with Deathless Rigor

Integrated Weapons with Overcharge

Warstrider with Amalgam

Deathless Cadaver: A Liminal has the Undead trait and is immune to Fatigue, Poison, and Disease. Because a Liminal has a Pyros Reactor instead of a heart, they cannot benefit from a Bionic Heart or any of the artifact versions.

Refitting: As the Promethean ability. Repairing a Liminal requires thread sutures, skin grafts, and body parts of similar size (from a race within 1 point of your own), as well as Medicae + Int tests instead of Crafts + Int tests.

Deathless Rigor: Liminals reduce damage they take from every source by an amount equal to their Generation, except for damage inflicted by magical effects.

Overcharge: Whenever you suffer damage from a source that deals E-type damage, you gain an additional Reaction that must be used before the end of the next round.

Amalgam: You can take racial feats belonging to any race whose body parts are incorporated into your form. This requires an actual body location, such as an arm or your head, not just an eye or a tail. If you lose the body part, any racial feats you have that relied on it are immediately refunded.

Liminal Stitching Assets

Adamantine
These blue-green metal threads blunt magic's effects. Gain Aura equal to your Generation +3, that does not stack with other sources of Aura. You can spend a Pyros to increase your Aura by 3 until the end of the scene.

Pattern Silk
Silk from the spiders inhabiting the Webway resonates with the machinations of destiny, imbuing the sutures holding your body together with fate itself. Any time you would spend (but not burn) a Hero Point, you can spend 3 Pyros instead. If you or anyone within 5 meters of you spends a Hero Point, you regain 3 Pyros.

Shadow Weave
Held together by the absence of light, it feels like your stitches aren't even there! Gain a free raise on all Acrobatics, Stealth, and Larceny tests, and you can go to six dots in each of them. If you spend Pyros to gain extra rolled dice on a test with one of these skills, you gain one additional kept die for every two rolled dice.

Spellstitched
Certain forms of silk - like the ones stitching your body together - cling to magical energies like freshly dried socks. Gain the Minor Magic feat. You can purchase this feat or the Spellbook feat once at each level starting at level 2, as if it appeared in your class progression, but only to learn spells that have been cast in your presence.

Wraithbone Staples
Your body is held together with pins made of wraithbone, channeling magical energy through you and allowing your deathless body to restore itself. As a free action, you may heal one Hit Point by spending a Pyros.

Minor nitpicks: You used 'Deathless' on two of the Liminal power names, and I feel one of them should be changed to avoid repetition. Also, Refitting kinda has a run-on sentence going on. Other than that, it checks out just fine.

I've said it once and I'll say it again, this Exalt is excellent for playing as a Doll in the Grim Darkness of the Great Wheel Where there is Only War. I'd provide some images, but some of them are a little extreme.

Being fair, Promethean did the same with "Integrated."

That's true. Besides, redundancy helps people remember these things.

Did a quick edit to clarify what "similar size" means when Refitting a Liminal, and also added a limiter to the Spellstitched asset.
