*WoundThatWillNotHeal: Specifically a wound of the metaphysical variety, as once a human becomes a Deviant nothing can be done to heal their Scars; the best thing they can do is live with it as best they can.

*SuperPowerMeltdown: While Deviants are said to be somewhat more powerful than Hunters in terms of their powers at minimum, it's still possible for them to flare up and wreak carnage... usually at the cost of their lives. This is reflected by the End Stage Condition, which happens when the Remade reaches full Instability; the only way to stop it without dying is to destroy a Conviction Touchstone

* TheConspiracy: Naturally, though how that manifests will depend on the Storyteller. A conspiracy could consists of [[TheMenInBlack mysterious agents]] working for the government, a powerful corporation who created the Deviant and are trying to reclaim their "property," a cult who believes the targeted Deviant will herald the [[TheEndOfTheWorldAsWeKnowIt End Times]], or even a BenevolentConspiracy who hounds the party because they're too dangerous to roam around unchecked.

* TheConspiracy: CapturedSuperEntity: The default goal for a Conspiracy is to either create or capture superhuman beings to use as weapons, tools of control, or founts of resources. The fact that their prospective captives can read minds, throw lightning bolts, punch through cinderblocks, or hijack technology makes this a dicey proposition, but Conspiracies have developed enough practice at keeping their subjects under control that Renegades genuinely fear being recaptured by their makers.

* The Power of Friendship: Loyalty, one of the two Integrity equivalents. It serves as the counterpoint to Conviction for the Deviant factions -- for Renegades, it has the long-term effects Conviction has for Devoted, while for Devoted it has the short-term effects Conviction does for Renegades. A Guardian is a Renegade who manages to strengthen their loyalties to match their convictions, stabilizing their powers... at least until such time as they end up betraying their principles or losing those things they care about.
* The Power of Hate: The Remade's, specifically Renegades, bread and butter: unlike vampires or werewolves, who get a quick rush of rage to work with, a Remade's power comes from always being pissed off at something: what made them, who's hunting them, themselves. Special note should go to Nemeses, Devoted who have grown to despise something (such as a particular Renegade) so much their anger helps them stabilize their powers

*{{Determinator}}: Conviction is one of the twin Integrity equivalents of Deviants. For Renegades, fulfilling it is easy, but it doesn't last very long, keeping their Scars temporarily stable. For Devoted, fulfilling it is more difficult, but it lasts longer and is more effective, even potentially reversing a Super-Power Meltdown in extreme circumstances

* MindOverMatter: InferioritySuperiorityComplex: Cephalists often affect a sense of arrogance and superiority, presenting themselves as having exceeded the limitations of humanity, tweaked their makers' noses and achieved heights that both baseline humans and other Deviants can only dream of. Beneath this confident veneer, they are burdened by just as much mental trauma as any other Deviant, and are particularly haunted by the fear that they should lose control again and return to being a helpless lab rat.

*TheFettered: As a result of getting broken, the Remade can only define themselves by external things, such as a cause, a loved one, or getting back at the bastards who did this to them. Any Remade who just isolates themselves and gives up will fall prey to Instability, as they're consumed by their Scars, reach a period of high power and even higher anomie, and then die.
