Droning Suggestion

  • Cost: 10 motes
  • Target: Victims within 10 yards
Anyone exposed to the hum of Droning Suggestion must make a reflexive Willpower roll at a difficulty equal to the sorcerer’s Essence. Increase the difficulty of this roll by +1 if the target failed his Willpower roll in the previous turn. If the target fails the roll multiple turns in a row,

then the difficulty of the roll increases by +1 each successive turn. If the target fails the roll, then he takes one “willpower point” of damage for every success his resistance roll fell short by. These don’t actually subtract from the character’s temporary Willpower, and are just a temporary tally to determine how entranced the character is. If the victim is not fully under the sorcerer’s beguilement and for some reason leaves the area of the spell, they wear off one minute after the character escapes the drone. If the number of Willpower points of damage taken exceeds the character’s Willpower, he succumbs to the drone, and becomes pliant and suggestible, as detailed in Book of Three Circles. The effect of pliancy lasts until (10 – the victim’s Willpower) minutes after the victim leaves the sorcerer’s psychoharmonic field. Magical beings exposed to the drone may make a Wits + Occult roll at standard difficulty to detect its sinister hum. This grants them no immunity to the effect, but they could flee the area or end the sorcerer’s life.

Mortal characters will never detect it except in the unlikely event of their resisting its insidious effects. The mesmerizing droning continues until the end of the scene, but a character cannot be affected by it for more turns per scene than the sorcerer’s permanent Essence. At that point, she will either be suggestible or she will have resisted its siren call. Characters who resist the droning successfully are immediately aware of it. Characters who succumb to it will not realize they have been exposed until at least after the 10 – Willpower minutes of pliancy are up, and if the sorcerer is careful to keep his requests plausible, they may never figure it out.

Shedding the Serpent's Skin

  • Cost: 10+ motes
  • Target: Caster
For every 5 motes expended casting this spell, the character gains +2 automatic success on all Subterfuge rolls to evade detection for a number of turns equal to the number of turns the effigy would stand if undisturbed. This decreases by one success per turn. The spell’s example should read: “Thus, a character who spent 20 motes casting this spell would gain +8 automatic successes to Stealth on the first turn, +7 on the second turn, +6 on the third turn, and so on until the end of the eighth turn, when the spell’s effects will dissipate totally and the effigy crumbles to dust.”
The first turn of the spell’s effect is the turn that the character releases the magic, and the sorcerer receives a reflexive Dexterity + Subterfuge roll to evade detection that turn, unless for some reason he chooses not to evade detection immediately. As the spell implies, if the shell is destroyed, the character still gains these bonuses until the effect dissipates. Unless the sorcerer is detected, keep the results of the first Stealth roll and just subtract one success from it every turn. If the sorcerer attempts to do something like sneak through an open space, be sure to give the observers a number of automatic successes to detect her (probably 3, but this can be adjusted depending on lighting and distractions).
Note that if the character reaches the 4-7 mote level of anima display, the spell shatters instantly, so there is a limit to how much effect it can have. Note that like all spells, this sorcery creates an unmistakable display of Essence when cast. Sorcerers familiar with this spell will know exactly what happened though others might be deceived.
