Dreams and Visions

1
The power to observe things at a distance.
Used by Jessie (Carrion) Hope, Created by Iamangelofwar.
(Activating this Effect is not obvious. The only sign you are using an Effect is you fall asleep. )

Dreamer falls asleep, and her dreams carry her far away, to dream of somewhere or something else, in the form of a soaring bird.


Exert your Mind and spend one minute. Select a target Location within 75 feet. You may select a target at any range if you use up something the target has slept with of the target.

You may perceive things as if you were standing at that Location for the next 30 minutes. You must maintain Concentration to keep up the effect. You cannot perceive anything at your physical location while the effect is active.

This Effect is not obvious, and the only sign you are using an Effect is you fall asleep. If someone suspects that an Effect was used, they must roll Perception + Alertness, Difficulty 8 to pick up on your Tell.

You create a visible manifestation at the Location where your senses are projected which looks like a black bird that could either be a raven or a crow.

  • This does not satisfy the Line of Sight requirement for targeted Effects.

Instead of creating a repulsion field, you may create an attraction field, centered on any Location within with a diameter up to. All affected beings within the radius are pulled to the target Location and take 2 Damage.

You must remain standing in the same location while this Effect is active. Moving to a new location will interrupt your Concentration and end the Effect.
