AXIOM [M:FFGfo] Strength In Numbers Adam McLean
You have the power to Augment. As a main player, use this power to count each ship you have in an encounter as the number of ships that you have in the encounter (For example, if you have 3 ships in the encounter, they are each worth 3, total of 9). When collecting rewards or compensation, each ship is worth one.
History: A very unimposing species when encountered alone, but beware, as they grow in numbers they grow in strength and courage. Having been determined to expand their influence, they have begun to overpopulate their modest home world. Looking outward to prevent themselves from consuming their own kind, they have but one alternative ... consume everyone else's.
Notes: The recommended experience level for this power is Novice. This is a Combat type power.
Wild: As a main player, each ship you have in the encounter is worth two.
Super: All of your allies ships are also worth how many ships you have in the encounter (If you have 3 ships in the encounter, all ships on your side are worth 3, etc.).
Super: You may use your power as an ally.
ENCHANTRESS [M:BGG] Afflicts Opponent When Loses Adam McLean
Game Setup: Take the deck of Affliction cards and place them on this sheet.
You have the power of Affliction. Whenever you lose an encounter or fail to make a deal, you may use this power to search through your Affliction deck and choose one card to give to your opponent. They must place the card faceup on their alien sheet and are bound by the rules on that card until they discard it. At the start of any player's Regroup Phase, before the offense retrieves a ship from the warp, each player who has an Affliction card(s) on their alien sheet may choose one action: 1) Take one ship from any of his or her colonies to place on the Affliction card, if they have more than one Affliction card, they must choose which one to place the ship on, 2) If the number of ships on the card are equal to the cost, lift the affliction by discarding the card and returning it to you, the player can return the ships to any of his or her colonies, 3) Do nothing with the Affliction card.
History: For aeons, the Enchantress' were noted for their kind and giving ways, which made them popular friends of neighboring races. Little did anyone realize, however, if you got on their bad side, that generous giving came at great cost ... to you.

MANTIS [O:FFGfo] Devours Opponent's Cards Adam McLean
You have the power to Prey. As a main player, before encounter cards are selected, you may use this power to force your opponent to discard as many cards in his or her hand as you have ships in the encounter. If, after using this power, your opponent is left with no encounter cards in his or her hand, they must continue the encounter without playing an encounter card (playing no encounter card is equal to playing an attack 00 card). If your opponent was left with no encounter cards, after the encounter is resolved, your opponent discards his or her remaining cards, if any, and draws a new hand.
History: The Mantis have struggled for centuries at cultivating lasting friendships with other species, even amongst their own kind they have a tendency of turning their house guests, visiting for a meal -- into the meal. They look innocent and mild when observed in their natural environment, remaining still in fervent prayer, but don't be fooled by their sincerity, otherwise you might find yourself invited over as ... err, for a meal.

History: Coming from a barren and debilitated home, the Vagrant have searched the universe for a more productive world to call their home. By nature, they are a gentile species, but having searched now for many years, are finding the most suitable planets to also be the most hostile.

The ships you send to the warp may come from several opponents.
If you do not have any foreign colonies, and your player's color or a wild card is drawn from the destiny deck, you may use this power to send 4 ships from any of your colonies to the warp to establish a foreign colony, on any other player's planet, with 2 ships from any of your colonies. The ships coexists with the ships already there, if any. If this power is zapped, you do not lose the sacrificed ships to the warp.
