Honored
Courier In Dreams
Cost: 2 motes
Duration: 50 words
Type: Simple
Minimum
Compassion: 1
Minimum Essence: 1
Prerequisite
Charms: None
With this Arcanos,
a ghost can send a message to a living being through dreams. The ghost can
perform this Charm from the Underworld, a shadowland
or Creation, and send the message to a subject anywhere in Creation. The
message travels instantaneously to the subject’s current location. However, the
subject does not receive the message until the next time he sleeps (and if that
is more than eight hours away, the subject does not receive the message at
all). The ghost may speak up to 50 words to the subject, who sees the Charm’s
effect as the ghost standing and speaking the words to him. This Arcanos does not allow for two-way communication — the
subject receives the ghost’s message but may not send a reply.
Honorable Descendant
Blessing
Cost: 5 motes
Duration: One day
Type: Simple
Minimum
Compassion: 2
Minimum Essence: 1
Prerequisite
Charms: Courier in Dreams
A ghost can use this Arcanos
to send a minor blessing to an appropriately pious living descendant. The ghost
simply speaks the descendant’s name aloud, pictures him and spends the
necessary Essence, and the subject of the Charm immediately receives a three-dice
bonus pool that can be used to supplement any action at any time in the next
day. As the Arcanos takes effect, the subject feels a
pleasant surge of energy and good fortune. These dice can only be used once — after
the subject of the Charm uses the bonus dice, they are gone. This Charm only
works on living mortals and Exalts who can trace a line of blood descent from
the ghost.
Dishonorable Descendant
Curse
Cost: 6 motes
Duration: One hour per success
Type: Simple
Minimum
Compassion: 3
Minimum Essence: 2
Prerequisite
Charms: Courier in Dreams
This Arcanos is,
in most ways, the opposite of Honorable Descendant Blessing. It can only be
used on living mortals and Exalts who trace a line of blood descent from the
ghost. It works at any range, however. The ghost must simply visualize the
target and state his name aloud, and the subject feels a dull, throbbing pain
throughout the duration of the Charm. While the curse is active, the subject
loses one die from all dice pools. Spend the necessary Essence, and roll
Compassion + Lore. For every success, the curse lasts one hour. The ghost who
activates the Arcanos may dismiss the curse at any
time.
