| Correspondence |
| Specialties: Conjuration, Scrying, Warding, Teleportation Correspondence involves an understanding of locations, spatial relativity, and the interrelation between people and objects. This allows mages to teleport, pull rabbits out of hats, create magickal barriers and levitate or fly through the air. Correspondance is also commonly mixed with other SPheres to allow mages to work magick on subjects hundreds of miles away. While most mages need to touch their subject to work their Arts, those killed in Correspondance may skirt barriers or distance by forming links through space and related objects. * Immediate Spatial Perceptions At this stage, the mage can intuitively estimate distances between objects, find true north (or any other direction) and sense things in her immediate vicinity without using the normal five senses. This new sense also allows her to detect spatial instabilities, warps, and wormholes. ** Sense/Touch Space The mage may now extend any of her five senses across intervening space. Such magickal perceptions thin the barriers between the two points in space, however, creating a weakness in the Tapestry (like those a rank one Effect can spot). Luckily, she can also re-work the fabric of space, reinforcing the Tapestry and creating a barrier to hinder scrying or the opening of actual rifts. This works like countermagic The injunction with Life or Matter, the mage may also grasp small items -- house cat sized or smaller--- and pull them through the Tapestry, conjuring them from nowhere. *** Pierce Space/Seal Gate/Co-locality Perception The mage may now tear a hole through space, big enough to pass through but not large enough to carry large items into. She may also seal such rifts or prevent them from opening; the greater the rift, the more difficult the feat. She also learns to sense multiple locations at once, perceiving the various scenes as several ghosty landscapes overlapping one another. Working with the other Spheres, a mage may also grasp items governed by the Pattern Magicks and slide them through space, performing levitation and telekinesis. **** Rend Space/Co-locate Self The Adept may now transport other beings and large objects. She may even force the rent wide enough to make a permanent Gateway. The mage may now manifest physically in multiple locations at once, though she should also use Mind 1 if she wants to think effectively in all of them, and Life 2 if she wants her multiple selves to perform separate actions. ***** Mutate Localities/Co-location A master of Correspondence learns how to distort space. She can affect distances and sizes around her, stretching them and shrinking them to fit her needs. In scientific terms, the mass of objects cannot be changed, but their volumes and dimensions are like potter's clay. She may also stack locations on top of one another in a bizarre landscape of multiple forms or connect a variety of items together. At this point, the Master's perceptions are so wildly expanded that her mundane Perception may be enhanced beyond the normal human maximum. |
