Editing Quest:Blatant Fetish Quest (section)

===Self Enchantment===
Self enchantment is a lot like making a magic item only more delicate and time consuming. To self enchant you must enter a deep meditative state and alter you magical and physical rhythms using your own chi for power making your body a living magic item.
You can not use foci for self enchantment but appropriate surroundings like incense and chanting help to achieve the necessary focus. <br>
All self enchantments are ether mental or physical and keyed off of the appropriate stat. To gain a new augment or improve an existing one requires a number of success equal to the key stat times the final level of the augment. Each roll represents 3 hours of work. You can work as long as it takes to finish a self enchantment but if you interrupt the process part way through all progress is lost. <br>

====Descriptions====
A short description of the function of each augment listing its known and suspected properties and any pertinent notes. Speculation should be confined to the speculation section in each augment or if the augment itself is speculative that should be clearly stated in the label following the name. Every augment should have speculated drawbacks as an exercise in paranoia. As well as being a warning to look out for unintended consequences like when Dane failed to carry anything strong enough for him to use as a tourniquet due to his augments. Known drawbacks are confirmed as a problem.
