### Major

*Hebekinesis* (Major/Minor)

* As Children of the Goddess of Youth, Hebe kids have authority over youth and rejuvenation. They can use this to do many things, from simply changing appearance to turning them back to a young’un!
* 1-3 - Children of Hebe at this skill level can affect the way a person looks, returning them to their more youthful state. This only affects physical appearance, and can only be used on a section or aspect of them (ie. torso, arm, height, face, etc.). This lasts for 12 turns before they return to normal.
* 4-6 - Children of Hebe at this skill level can change a bit more, allowing them to fully change one’s body to how they would’ve looked as a child. They can only send them back 5 years however, so a 16 year old can only go back to 11 years old. This lasts about 8 turns before they return to normal
* 7-8 - Children of Hebe at this skill level can entirely change someone to be their younger self, going as far as returning their old voice (if it’s changed), old mannerisms, and even some of their mental aspects (what makes them feel “young”. The ability’s power influence scales with age, and the result will always be half their actual age (a 50 year old will turn 25, a 10 year old will turn 5, etc.). This lasts about 5 turns before they turn back to normal.
	+ 8 - When they reach level 8 with this skill, they unlock a new more permanent ability. This allows them to bestow upon someone the gift of physical agelessness. Once cast, the target will never age aesthetically, appearing as whatever age they did when it was cast. This lasts indefinitely, but if it’s cast on another person while it’s active, the previous target will rush to their proper appearance for their actual age. THIS ABILITY DOES NOT STOP THE AGING PROCESS, ONLY THE APPEARANCE OF THE PERSON. THEY WILL STILL FEEL THE EFFECTS OF AGING. THIS IS NOT A WAY TO ESCAPE BACK PROBLEMS, JUST WRINKLING!!!

*You are Child* (Major)

* Children of the goddess of youth can sometimes push back someone’s mental state to a more youthful time. When they do this the person will act exactly how they did however many years ago they were pushed back. They also won’t be able to remember any memories that happened before the time they’re reliving until the effects wear off. If they physically touch someone the effects automatically take place. If they do it at range they roll opposing rolls with their target to see if it works or not.
* Level one: They can push someone’s mental state back by a year at most. The effects will last for two turns, and they may do this once every other day.
* Level 2: They can push back someone by two years and the effects will last for three turns.
* Level 3: They can push someone’s mental state back by three years and the effects will last for four turns. They may do this once per day.
* Level 4: They can push back by four years and the effects last for five turns.
* Level 5: They can push back by five years and the effects last for six turns. They may use this ability thrice in a two day period with a cooldown of three turns.
* Level 6: They can push back by six years and the effects last for seven turns.
* Level 7: They can push back by seven years and the effects will last for eight turns. They may use this ability five times in a three day period. However they can only use a max of three of those times in one day.
* Level 8: They can push back by eight years and make the effects last for an entire day. If they do this they’ll lose their ability to use this power at all for the next four days.

### Minor

*Cupbearer of the Demigods* (Minor)

* Children of Hebe with this power mimic their mother’s responsibilities as Cupbearer of the Gods, and thus have a unique ability. They can create three different types of liquid (indicative of level) which do different things, as long as they have a container to store it in. They can also create normal drinks, such as Soda, Water, Milk, etc.
* 1 - They can create a liquid with honey-like consistency, which when consumed serves as a magical exfoliator, which gives one’s skin a youthful glow. This is permanent, or as permanent as exfoliation can be!
* 2 - They can create a liquid with honey-like consistency, which when consumed gives a boost of adrenaline-like youthful energy. This also exfoliates the skin like the previous level. The adrenaline rush lasts for about 6 turns with dwindling effects over time, gradually decreasing from the second they get the effect (halving the effect each turn) instead of dropping off harshly when it’s over.
* 3 - At this level, they are nearly parallel to their mother. They can create a diluted Nectar, which gives someone a youthful appearance and youthful energy like the last two drinks, as well as getting rid of any non-permanent minor wounds like small cuts, rashes, scrapes, bruises, etc. The adrenaline lasts for about 8 turns, the exfoliation is permanent, and wounds are fully healed in 3 turns.

*Longevity* (Minor)

* Children of Hebe that have inherited this power from their mother have an extended life expectancy. This doesn’t affect their aging speed, meaning they age at the same rate as a normal person, it just affects how long they’ll be expected to stay “youthful”, and how long they’ll end up living. If this power levels up, her expected age will increase without any other side effects.
* 1 - Children of Hebe at this skill level will live (on average) to about 125.
* 2 - Children of Hebe at this skill level will live (on average) to about 150.
* 3 - Children of Hebe at this skill level will live (on average) to about 200.

### Given

*Timeless Beauty* (Given)

* Children of Hebe tend to never appear as if they age, and don’t feel a lot of the negative effects of aging. They don’t experience wrinkling, stooped posture, weaker joints and bones, decrease in height, graying hair, etc. They maintain smooth and glowing skin, keep all or most of their baby fat, etc. They can, however, specify to receive one or more of these effects.

*Fountain of Youth* (Given)

* Children of Hebe have semi-magical tears, which when in contact with skin can rewind any effects of aging. Sort of like make-up, but more of an exfoliator to get rid of wrinkles and make your skin as smooth as a baby’s bottom.

*Immaturity* (Given)

* Children of Hebe never seem to age mentally, or at least nearly as quickly as other people. They tend to be more emotional, and they’ll attempt to distract themselves from what could be bothering them by ignoring it, much like a child. In a time of grief, for example losing someone you loved, they might try to organize a Dungeons and Dragons session where the person they lost is still very much alive, and very much protected by plot. However, it has its upsides as well! They have a bit more Empathy and Sympathy, which allows them to connect with people and feel their emotions a bit better, and they have an insane amount of creativity.
