The power to set traps that generate illusions when triggered.
Used by Nikelaos Black-Briar, Created by Dorimouse.
(The trap looks like whatever the user imagines from the spirit´s writing. It can only be spotted as a trap by those with preexisting knowledge of such traps. You must actively and obviously be using writing tools.)

The user is able to put into paper any illusion they may wish to cast, and make it appear on the nearby terrain by doing so. The summoned spirit takes possession of the user´s arm to write down the aspect of the illusion desired.

Exert your Mind and spend an Action to trap a region of any shape that contains your current location and fits entirely within arm's reach. This trap lasts one hour or until triggered or disarmed. This Effect cannot be used unless the user is able to write it down. You must actively and obviously use writing tools to activate this Effect. Choose an illusion to generate, which can be no larger than an SUV.

The trap looks like whatever the user imagines from the spirit´s writing. Only those who have seen this trap before can identify it as a trap. Anyone who is aware of the trap may intuitively avoid, trigger, or destroy it.

Any Location that enters the chosen region will trigger the trap.

The chosen illusion is generated at the trap, and it will remain in place for the next 3 Rounds or you choose to end it. It can be perceived by people through their taste, touch, hearing, smell, and sight. The illusion cannot be used as an attack. You cannot make an exact replica of an existing Animate being or Object.

Anyone who struggles against the illusion hard enough to break a window or who would be damaged by the illusion (or who would be able to perceive it significantly through a sense it cannot fool) realizes it is an illusion and can choose to perceive it or not at will.

The illusion will remain fixed to its initial Location. It may have moving parts and engage in simple, predetermined movements but cannot perform anything complex or interactive unless you maintain Concentration and “puppeteer” it.

  • Anyone who witnesses you place the trap learns about this type of trap and can avoid it at will.
  • while you can use an illusion to obscure something smaller, you cannot make anything directly invisible (you can’t make a tank look like a regular baseball, but you can hide it in an illusion of a giant baseball).
  • You may only puppeteer a single illusion at once.
  • Multiple traps cannot be placed in the exact same location or be triggered by the same single Action. Nor can one trap triggering cause another to trigger.
  • Trap can only be spotted by someone who has witnessed this particular trap before, has been informed, or possesses relevant supernatural abilities. They must achieve an Outcome of 4 or higher on a Perception + Alertness roll to do so.
  • The area you choose where the trap can be triggered may be just a single location, similar to a tripwire or a pressure plate, or it can be a proximity trigger which hits anyone who comes within the specified range of the trap. This is defined by you when you place the trap and cannot be changed once the trap is placed.
