Oni
From FFa2Wiki
Description
The oni are a race of infernal that have a slitted eye in the centre of their forehead (sometimes called a jewel) and with graceful horns that arc back and sometimes curl or spiral. Some have enlarged tusks which come from the bottom jaw, curling up. Most oni have either a deep red or pitch black skin, and their eyes burn with a red or yellow light. Oni do not naturally have wings.

Favored Sorcery: Infernalism
Merit:
Third Eye
As an Instant Action, the character can open their third eye,
granting them insight into the flaws and weaknesses of the world
for the Scene. The world appears to have a series of flaws and lines
along everything, and the character can use these weaknesses to
their advantage. When performing an Action against someone, the
character uses the lowest of the target’s Defence, Resistance, or
Resolve, and reduces the number by the character’s Growth to
determine the actual Difficulty of the Action. The character ignores
any bonuses to these Traits which are not specifically granted by an
Ability, Gift, Merit, Power, or Talent. Bonuses from equipment,
spells, or other outside influences are simply ignored. In addition,
the character is capable of performing physical attacks against
incorporeal opponents. When an opponent wishes to use an Action
against the character, they must use the lowest Attribute they
possess, and if the character gains additional successes, these are
reduced by the character’s Growth. Bonuses from equipment,
spells, or other outside influences are nullified for the roll. While
this power is active, the character’s third eye opens, a vertical slit
in the middle of the character’s forehead. This eye glows with a
violet light.
