//BIOLOGY
[0] Marsupium √
	The Flower of Life has grown a cavity within its petals that is comfortably able to fit Mira and anyone her size within it. While the FoL does use this cavity for digesting things, its lining is also capable of producing secretions that heal and tend to Mira along with a host of pheromones that make cozying up in very comforting.
	($) Recuperation
		-Mira-
		>Counts as round-the-clock hospital care.
		>Heals 1 minor ailment (sprains, pulled muscles etc) per hour inside.
	($) Internal Digestion
		>Size 5: 1 per month.
		>Size 3: 1 per week.
		>Size 1: 1 per day.
		*time required to fully breakdown hard tissue, soft tissue goes very fast internally

[1] Life Support Complex √
	The marsupium has developed a number of organs that allow it to provide life support to its occupant so that it may flood with serum designed to optimize healing. Even though its tailored to alien biology it's perfectly capable of providing similar if slightly less optimized care to humans.
	($) Benefit
		-General-
		>Counts as round-the-clock hospital care.
		>After (10 - (Resolve + Stamina), minimum 1) hours inside, grants the Condition <Accelerated Regeneration>.
		-Rochelle-
		>EXPECTED ANOMALY
	(C) Condition: Accelerated Regeneration
		So long as your character is only taking it easy, halve recovery times for Bashing and Lethal damage. A character with full health may instead use this to gain a +1 bonus to any Stamina roll for the next hour.
		Resolution: strenuous physical activity or 24 hours go by.

[2] Iatrocytes

[2] Hematopoietic Stem Cell Cultivation √
	Within the Flower of Life spongy tissue akin to bone marrow has began to form (or Nova's imaging devices tell her). Considering it's now able to transfuse blood into the occupant of its pouch it's safe to say it's working like human bone marrow for now.
	($) Benefit: Human Blood Production
		>The FoL produces half a pint of blood every day as long as it's 'Well Fed' and it may store up to 10 pints of blood in reserve.
		>Blood transfusion allows up to the lower of Resolve or Stamina points of Lethal Damage to be downgraded to Bashing damage per day, so long as it was caused by an eligible wound. Each points cost half of blood.
		>A single point of Aggravated damage may be downgraded per day, this requires a half pint of blood plus the current wound penalty in half pints. Downgrading Aggravated damage in this way also gives the character a relevant Condition that is attached to the downgraded damage and sent to the "left" of the characters health if possible so its more difficult to heal (as damage to the right must be healed first).

[3] Integumentary Stem Cell Cultivation
	Prerequisite: Hematopoietic Stem Cell Cultivation

[3] Porphyrocytes
	Prerequisite: Hematopoietic Stem Cell Cultivation or Iatrocytes

//DIGESTION
[0] Psuedomycelium √
	Nova has dubbed the purple carpet creeping along the loft of her warehouse the psuedomycelium on account of it acting a lot like the mycelium of fungi, only its intelligent enough to not eat the building. It's solved Nova's ant problem up there and seems content with a sprinkle of fertilizer, ground multi-vitamins, and fish flakes plus whatever crumbs end up on the floor up there.
	($) Benefit: External Digestion
		The Flower can still eat even if its pouch is occupied with other things.
		>Maximum Size: 1
		>Digestion Rate: 2 hours/-	(soft tissue/hard tissue)

[1] Basic Biocatabolisis

[2] Acidopoiesis

[2] Zymopoiesis

//PSIONICS
[0] Connectivity √
	The Flower of Life maintains a psychic link with Mira through means unknown; it allows her to inuit the direction of Flower and its condition if she concentrates on it for a moment. Furthermore it somehow allows for nutrients and calories Mira consumes to be transfer to the Flower itself.
	($) Benefit
		-Mira-
		>When under stress, roll Resolve + Int to sense direction of Flower and its current state.
		>FoL gains energy when Mira eats. Optimal transfer range 15 yards or less; Maximum 3 miles.

[1] Psionoreception √
	Stalks have sprouted from the base of the Flower covered with fern-like growths, these allow it to passively pick up psychic signals.
	($) Benefit: Primitive Psi-dar
		>The flower detects psychic signals but cannot yet interpret them and lacks accuracy.
		>Signal Interpretation roll: Intelligence + Wits + Acclimation ± Modifiers.
		-General-
		>When Cephalists or characters psychic powers touch the flower, they can sense the signals it detects and help in sorting it out.
		-Mira-
		>When in the FoL's pouch for a little bit, Mira gains +1 Int. Lasts for Acclimation rolls or 1 hour upon getting out.

[2] Psionic-Processing Nodules

[2] Psionophagy √
	Dense networks of zinc-infused neural tissue have began to grow beneath the interior lining of the marsupium which apparently grant it the ability to break down and absorb psychic energy.
	($) Benefit: Psychic Sustentance
		>The flower can now passively taste the quality of detected psychic signals, allowing it to discern what is good eating and what isn't.
		>The FoL may digest psychic energy for nutrition and analysis. As a side effect this means it can eat psychic phenomena clinging to a character, purging them of its effects.
		>The flower now possesses the ability to store Willpower from its meals or to take it from a donor. This willpower can be infused into an individual if they rest in the flower a rate of 1 point an hour.

[3] Resonance Masking Complex
	Prerequisite: Psionophagy

[3] Psipacitance Serum
	Prerequisite: Psionophagy

//CHEMISTRY
[0] Analytocytes √
	The Flower of Life produces a line of cells armed with a variety of chelants so that it may analyze substances that it consumes and sequester them if need be. This of course means the thing is very difficult to poison or drug.
