"By the power of the Gods!" At the start of each drive, after the teams have been set up but before the kick-off, Papa Skullbones can attempt to bless one player on his team (not a Mercenary or Star Player) with the power of the Chaos gods. Choose a player on your team from among those on the pitch, and roll a D8 on the table below. Any Skills gained are kept until the end of the drive; if the player already has both Skills, “By the Power of the Gods!” has no effect on them. A player cannot be chosen if a roll has already been made for them during this game.
1 - Unworthy: The player is struck down. The player is immediately removed from play and placed in the Knocked-out box of their team dugout.
2 - Overlooked: The chosen player is overlooked by the fickle gods. Randomly select another player from the same team, excluding players not on the pitch and players for whom a roll on this
table has already been made, and roll on this table again.
3 - Freakish Proportions: The player gains the Big Hand and Very Long Legs skills.
4 - Grasping Tendrils: The player gains the Tentacles and Prehensile Tail skills.
5 - Horrific Visage: The player gains the Disturbing Presence and Foul Appearance skills.
6 - Grisly Bifurcation: The player gains the Extra Arms and Two Heads skills.
7 - Thorny Protrusions: The player gains the Claws and Horns skills.
8 - Favour of the Gods: The player gains two Skills of your choice, chosen from the Mutations category.
