Bargaining Ceremony: Drinking tea, sharing a cigarette, playing chess, or sitting back to back are all ceremonies.

Where I Want You: When you obsess about someone, you may spend 4 Strings on them; you'll frame the next scene either of your characters appear in. Frame a scene with just the two of you, and until you've made a move, no one else can enter and they can't leave.

Integrity:
With Integrity: You judge your own actions harshly, holding yourself to a high moral standard. You have a fifth stat to reflect this, which starts at zero and can climb to 3. Gain a point of Integrity when
💔 you take the moral highground about an issue that matters,
💔 you follow through on something important that you say you'll do.
You can gain up to 1 Integrity per scene. When a move calls for you to roll with integrity, erase 1 Integrity after you roll.
I Believe In You: When you believe in someone who has just done less than their best, make eye contact with them and roll with integrity (& then erase 1). On a 10 up, the roll they just made counts as a 10. On a 7-9, add 1 to the roll they just made. When time seems to stop and fate hangs in the balance, sometimes believing in somebody is enough.
Prophecies: When you predict the outcome of a PC's intended action well before they undertake it, roll with integrity (& then erase 1). On a 10 up, the decisive move's roll will succeed as a result of 10 up, or automatically miss, choose now. • On a 7-9, as above, but you'll have to be there to help it along.
On a successful roll, read this aloud: "A PC may defy this prediction by breaking their own heart."
A Good Person: Spend an Integrity to offer someone an experience point to do what you say. If they undertake to do that thing, and you directed them towards making a third party happier at no one's expense, mark experience.
Speak From The Heart: When you have someone else's best interests at heart, add 2 to your rolls to manipulate an NPC.
Lesser Beasts: When you're near them, animals can converse in human speech. Full sentences and broad concepts, with strange gaps of knowledge.

💔 stand up to it and award yourself a point of Integrity,
💔 call out for help and anyone who comes to your rescue marks experience,
💔 look directly at it and ask the MC a question about your hunters.
Blessings: (If you pick this, read it aloud.)
When other people seek your blessing and erase a String on you, tell them whether you approve of their intentions. If you approve, they carry 1 forward to realizing it. If you don't, they take that String on you back.

Old Family Friend: When you take your fourth harm, fall down dying. You can't avoid death, but you can transfer it to one of your remaining siblings. Death, be it as a robed figure or as a shadow in the door, comes for them instead of you. When you wake into life again, you're fully healed.

Firstborn: When you get someone to attend to your needs, perhaps combing your hair or bringing you a glass of water, gain a String on them.
Or Else: Spend a String on a blood sibling, then flashback to having told them what to do in the situation at hand. If you told them to do something that kids can do, they're doing it. If it was out of their league, or something which might leave them worse off than what they think you'll do if they don't - they aren't.
Birthrights Name: When you want a sibling to parrot back something you told them to remember, roll with dark. On a 10 up, they say it verbatim. On a 7-9, as above, but they sound like you when they say it.

Skin & Bones: You can slip out of your skin and viscera at any time to reveal your true skeletal form. If anyone witnesses this process, you each take a string on the other. While in your true form, you take no harm from anything that a skeleton would be immune to (stabbing or slashing, strangling, etc). You cannot turn someone on or manipulate an NPC, but you can use Dark instead of Cold to shut someone down. If your skin is lost or destroyed while you’re out of it, you will have to obtain a replacement in order to pass for human again.
Casting The Bones: When you are offering wisdom, guidance, or advice to a friend and you gaze into the abyss, add the following options when you roll 10 up:
💔 The visions show what your friend must do; they carry 1 forward.
💔 The visions heal your friend; they may remove one condition.
💔 Take a string on your friend.
Add the following option when you roll 7-9:
💔 The visions are lucid and detailed, but your friend takes a string on you.
Connected: In your true form, you can disconnect and reconnect your bones at the joints, and retain full control over all your body parts regardless of whether they are connected. Only your skull can see, hear, or smell; your limbs and other bones are limited to a sense of touch. You can use this ability to be present and active in multiple simultaneous scenes.
Deadpan: Your cheerful morbidity, gallows humor, and deathly aura are fascinating and off-putting. In your human form, you can use Dark instead of Cold to shut someone down.
Morte Alata: In your true form, you have a pair of bony wings. When not in use they fold up and look something like an extra ribcage on your back, but you can use them for flight despite their skeletal nature. You may use Dark instead of Volatile to run away by escaping into the air.
Ossuary: You have a small cache of “extra” bones. When you take your fourth harm, you can hold yourself together just long enough to get to your stash and rebuild yourself with your spares. When this happens, clear all your harm, mark experience, and trade this Move for a different Calaca move. You may take this move again as an Advancement.
Sugar Skull: In your true form, you retain some of the features of the living. You have humanlike hair, eyeballs, a nose, lips, and ears. Your face and hands look like those of a beautiful human - albeit one with skin like fine bone china. You may roll to turn someone on or manipulate an NPC, but if any part of your body aside from your face and hands is exposed, you must use Dark instead of Hot.

When you are your Darkest Self, your Fury moves are amplified. You can effortlessly affect groups of victims in the immediate area, and your destructive powers can affect large structures like buildings.

After the fifth time your subject accepts experience from you when you spend a string, they must use their next advancement to take a Proxy move.

You have full access to all their social media accounts (e-mail, Twitter, YouTube, G+, etc) and may make irreversible changes to those accounts. You can also edit your target’s uploaded videos, inserting scenes, frames, audio, or text, either obviously or subliminally. You may enter their home with sufficient stealth as to record video of them sleeping, without triggering security, being discovered, or leaving accidental traces of your presence.
Cryptic Bullshit: You can use Dark instead of Cold to shut someone down, but only indirectly, through sending them a written or video message. This can consist of mysterious but meaningful images, phrases written in ciphers, or recurring symbols. Add +1 to the roll if it’s against your subject.

💔 Gain a string on them, but It gains a string on you.

Anyone viewing or listening to the distorted recordings of you must roll to hold steady; results of 6 or less give the viewer the condition Fascinated.
Masky: When you are masked, others must hold steady before they can attempt to turn you on, shut you down, or lash out physically at you. If they roll 10 up they may make the second roll normally.

They're Not There: You are unnoticeable. Nothing with a mind can see, hear, smell, or otherwise sense you, or anything you wear or carry. People will alter their paths to avoid bumping into you without being conscious of doing so. Evidence of your presence is ignored - if you are dripping wet or standing in a snowdrift, no-one will notice the puddle or footprints (but someone entering the scene after you have left will notice, and can point out the evidence to others, at which point they can see it). Cameras and other recording devices - anything non-sentient - can still register and record you. If you want to make yourself known to others, roll with Cold. On a 10 up, you can interact with others for one scene. On a 7-9, you stay invisible, but you can make yourself noticed by whispering, writing notes, or pushing people or furniture around. On a miss, become your Darkest Self.
See Through You: You are perfectly transparent. Nothing can see you, including cameras. This only affects your body, not anything that you are wearing or carrying, so to be completely invisible you will need to be nude. You can still be heard, smelled, or felt, and evidence of your presence (footprints, floating patches of paint, etc.) may give away your location. If you want to interact with others normally, you will need to wear bandages or a mask, or cover your exposed skin with makeup. If you are disguised in this way and your true invisible nature is exposed, roll with Cold. On a 10 up, you can retain self-control and beat a hasty retreat, leaving viewers wondering what they just saw. On a 7-9, you are enraged and embarrassed. All onlookers get a string on you. On a miss, become your Darkest Self.
Blackmailer: When you observe someone doing something they’d rather keep secret, take a string on them. When you spend a string to offer someone experience, keep the string if they refuse.
Grand Guignol: When you do something violent, perverse, or sadistic in order to attract attention, roll Volatile. On a 10 up, mark experience and treat anyone seeing or experiencing your handiwork as if you had shut someone down and rolled 10 up. On a 7-9, treat them as if you’d shut someone down and rolled 7-9, but also choose one:
💔 They gain a string on you.
💔 Gain the condition Urban Legend.
On a miss, your atrocity is blamed on someone else. Become your Darkest Self. If you are already your Darkest Self, gain the condition Enraged.
Out Of Thin Air: When you are invisible and lash out physically, add 1 to your Volatile roll. Others take -1 to attempts to lash out physically at you.
Threatening Whispers: You can roll with Cold to manipulate an NPC by threatening to expose their secrets. Also add 1 to your Cold roll to shut someone down.
Vanishing Act: You can always run away from someone without having to roll, but choose one:
💔 They take a string on you.
💔 You take 1 harm.
💔 You gain the condition Urban Legend.
Voyeur: You may spend a string on someone to insert yourself into any scene that person is in. When you gaze into the abyss about someone you have strings on, spend a string to change a miss into a 7-9, or a 7-9 into a 10 up.

Masquerade: You have a True Nature - that of a Deep One. If someone learns your True Nature in your presence gain 1XP. A PC who knows adds 1 to all rolls against you, while an NPC who learns may immediately make an action and gains a string against you.

Metamorphosis: You become a Shoggoth- a horror of dozens of tentacles, rendering the Masquerade irrelevant. The first time a PC sees you, they must hold steady or run away - most NPCs just run. The following skin moves are upgraded:
💔 Cold Blooded: you can regenerate from a single tentacle in hours.
💔 Unnatural Desires: Add 1 to your roll
💔 Bringing the Storm: Buildings may be damaged with this move - an average house can take 6 harm.
