Subject Nadir externalises a flow of dread and despair and the shadows swirl a little more closely - some sort of phantasmal apparition of dread and dissolution.

Subject Bubba reroutes their internal circulatory system to account for systemic shock; increasing their HP pool, upgearing their damage resistance and netting some resistance to blood-borne dangers in the process.

Subject Acolyte is suddeny very, very happy that they're radiating friend-pheremones as the Ripthing claws at a door and eventually manages to get it open by hitting the access panel just right. Intense scents waft from the room beyond, mewls in the dark, shapes moving. A. . . nest? Doesn't look sanitiary. More like a storage pen for critters, all sharp and deadly and dangerous.

Facility wide containment procedures are activating. Whatever disruption happened earlier to provide you some brief respite and succour is being remedied, adjusted, corrected. Facility Project Oversight - PHAROAH - works fast.

Changeling Subjects should internalize that changes are *specific*. Focusing volatility and rolling dice based on a trait or an attribute and simply hoping for the best is no different than an aberrancy roll, the Universe is apt to treat such ideas as simply a randomized effect based on your current physiology. A smidge more precision helps rather a lot. You do not want "health", you want "resistance to bullets", "armored skin", "a resilient circulatory system", "more arms", "a nicer face", "the ability to communicate in chemistry with the hive-minded pack hunters I stumbled into just now".

Psionick-Resonance subjects should internalize a memory from long hours of training, pain and reward and puzzle logic - if you can only manifest external changes, you are more likely to generate a panopoly of projections and a regalia of thought-forms than anything else. Forge your focus into a blast-shape that channels Psychogenesis or telekinetic capacity down a specific pathway, or set your telekinetic systems to pyrokinetic manipulation mode or fashion a sword of will or wings of force or slam a wall where none where before or many, many, many other things.
But if you externalize the rolling dread of malevolence, with "the force of ending and of stopping all manner of will to exist" it is an intrinsically hostile entity, outside yourself, and the next thing that is going to happen is that it will attempt to eat your brain.
Which it is trying to do, by the way, Nadir, you should run really, really, really far away.
