Minor Personality Flaw
Seeker: You are a self-proclaimed member of the Seekers, a loose organization of competitive magi searching for ancient magic and arcane artifacts. Much of your life is spent in pursuit of these items. Your interests may occasionally clash with other interests of your House.

General, Minor
This form of secular instruction,
given by tutors to the scions of
merchant houses, emphasizes practical skills likely to make the student
suited to a leadership role in the
family business. The character may
purchase Academic Abilities during
character creation. She also gains 50
additional experience points, which
must be spent on Academic Abilities,
Bargain, the Organization Lore of
the character’s company, Profession
Merchant, or the language of trade in
the company’s region (usually Latin,
Greek, or Arabic).

Social Status, Minor
The character is in command of
a ship, and a crew. The character has
sufficient capital for a cargo, but may
have substantial debts, which may
be represented by the Favors Flaw.
Further details are given in the main
body of this chapter. A merchant
adventurer who owns a share of the
company he works for should select
the Partner Virtue instead of this one.

Mythic Blood (Zmej)
Major, Hermetic
Zmey are a variety of dragon native to the Transylvania Tribunal. Each village has a zmey, which rouses itself to fight evil spirits that attempt to enter its territory to cause hail or drought. This creates storms.
Zmey have many powers. They fly by controlling the wind. Their natural form glows when they fly, but they can become invisible at will. They can change shape, into dogs or humans, but can also impersonate manufactured objects, like necklaces and garlands of flowers. Some play enchanting music on shepherd’s pipes. Female zmey, zmeyitsas, can take ursine form. Zmey often charm young women, which usually leads to their death. Sometimes the zmey leaves, and the woman pines away. Local herbalists have a concoction that sometimes restores the desire to live. The zmey often asks the woman to elope, taking her away to his chthonic home.
Occasionally, women survive relationships with zmey, and bear children. The children of zmey look human, except for small membranous wings that connect their torso and underarms. These wings are useless vestiges.
A human who eats the heart of a zmey gains many of its powers, including supernatural strength. Humans can become zmey through spells or herbal preparations.
Descent from a zmey grants a Minor Magical Focus with Storms, and the Minor Personality Flaw tends to be one of Lecherous, Meddler, or Proud. The granted power may be invisibility (as Veil of Invisibility (ArM5 page 146), but with Personal Range and no Penetration, castable without words or gestures), the ability to fly on the wind (as Wings of the Soaring Wind (ArM5 page 126), requires words and gestures), or the ability to turn into a dog or bear (like Shape of the Woodland Prowler (ArM5 page 131), but with Personal Range, and requiring only a gesture).

Mimic the Christ's Miracle

This spell changes water into wine. Changing water into a processed liquid reduces its size, and it takes a barrelful of water to produce a cup-sized amount of wine.

Forms a fire along the length of a metal
blade. This flame doubles the weapon damage
score for the blade (or adds +5, whichever is
greater), and can start fires as well. If the spell
is cast repeatedly on the same blade, the blade
gets hot enough to melt after half an hour,
which ends the spell. Letting the blade cool for
half an hour between castings avoids this.
(Base 5, +1 Touch, +1 Diameter)

Changes the Size of an animal by +1. This
change modifies Strength by +2, the range for
each wound level increases by one, and
Quickness falls by one. The new beast is of huge
size, and looks much more impressive than its
previous self. Townspeople may run in fear of it,
and there is little doubt among them that it is a
creature of magic.
(Base 4, +1 Touch, +2 Sun)

The target gains the eyes of a cat, which
allow him or her to see in near darkness (but
not in absolute darkness, such as a lightless subterranean
cavern).
(Base 2, +1 Touch, +2 Sun, requisite free)

Calms an animal until it is threatened or
aroused again. You must speak soothingly or
musically to it, and something as simple as
approaching it may arouse it again.
(Base 4, +2 Voice)

Holds an animal rigid as long as you
maintain eye contact with it and concentrate
on it.
(Base 5, +1 Eye, +1 Concentration)

No rain falls on the caster, no matter how
bad the weather.
(Base 4, +2 Sun)

You can tell what Art a supply of raw vis
is connected to. To you, the vis appears to glow
with an aura that is appropriate to the
Technique or Form that the vis is associated
with. Creo is white, Intellego gold, Muto constantly
fluctuating, Perdo black, Rego purple,
Animal brown, Aquam blue, Auram violet,
Corpus dark red, Herbam green, Imaginem
pearly blue, Ignem bright red, Mentem orange,
Terram dark brown, and Vim silver. Some of
the colors are very similar, but are easy to distinguish
if the item is held steadily and studied
for a few seconds.
(Base 4, +1 Touch)

You cast this spell on a spell that you have
already cast and are maintaining through concentration.
The spell that requires concentration
is then automatically maintained for the
duration of this spell, whether you concentrate
or not. You cannot change the effects of the first
spell without concentrating on it again. For
instance, you can use The Unseen Arm (ReTe 5) to
hold an object in the air without concentrating,
but to move the object still requires concentration.
A Stamina + Concentration stress roll of
6+ must be made in order to cast this spell while
keeping the first one going (a lower roll than
normal because this is what the spell is designed
for). This spell only works on spells of equal or
lower level.
(Base effect, +1 Touch, +1 Diam)

The target forgets meeting the caster.
Prior contact between the caster and the target
must be limited to a brief and relatively
insignificant event occurring within the last
day, and includes the casting of this spell.
This spell is perfect for making a target forget
seeing the maga overtly cast a spell, or
causing a sentry to forget letting her through
a gate. However, a person cannot be made to
forget who stabbed him.
(Base 4, +1 Eye)

This spell causes the caster’s body and
personal effects to shine with the brightness of
the sun. Anyone within 10 paces of the caster
who looks in the direction of the caster is temporarily
blinded, unless he makes a Stamina
stress roll against an Ease Factor of 9. People
between 10 and 50 paces from the caster suffer
a –3 penalty to all attempts to target the caster.
The light created by this spell illuminates a
great area and, if conditions permit, could be
seen from several miles away. Ranulf has noticed
that people and creatures whose Magic
Resistance is not penetrated by this spell are
not illuminated by it, and can be easily identified
by their lack of reflected light.
(Base 5, +1 Diameter, +1 exceptionally
intense light)

A fire targeted by this spell is inextinguishable
by wind or water for the spell’s
duration. A fire will still burn out if it runs
out of fuel while under the effect of the spell,
and a candle that is the target of this spell
may still be extinguished by being pinched
or snuffed out. This spell was originally designed
to keep a candle burning on a windy
and rainy night, but it can be used on fires
that are much larger in size and can even be
used to allow a burning torch to be brought
underwater without being extinguished. The
bubbles, smoke, and turbulence caused by
submerging a fire that is under the effecof this spell prevent it from being a useful
method of illuminating aquatic areas.
(Base 3, +1 Touch, + 2 Sun)

This spell momentarily alters a fire so
that rather than radiating heat, it radiates
an icy cold. The colors of the target fire
change from oranges and yellows to violets
and blues. Any fire affected by this spell does
cold damage rather than heat damage for the
moment of the spell’s duration. Boreal Flames
does not function on fires that are so hot that
they do more than +15 damage. This spell
was specifically designed to alter a casting
of Pilum of Fire. Boreal Flames may be cast in
conjunction with another spell; to do so the
caster must make an Intelligence + Concentration
roll against an Ease Factor of 15 (per
ArM5, page 82). Ranulf uses Boreal Flames in
conjunction with The Patient Spell, as doing
so eliminates the need for such a formidable
feat of concentration.
(Base 4, + 1 Touch, +2 intensity of flames)

As the caster walks, this spell shifts the
earth underfoot allowing him to travel over
rutted paths and uneven roads as though
they were flat and even. The earth returns to
its prior position after the target of the spell
has passed. The spell ends when the caster
comes to a stop, such as to rest, or crosses
terrain unaffected by this spell, such as a
wooden bridge or a ford.
This spell has little effect on soft or
muddy paths, as the earth must still be able
to bear the target’s weight. The spell is potent
enough to move stones and cobbles in
the road.
A traveler using this spell does not suffer
undue delay for traveling over poor roads.
Traveling at speed to cover more ground
in the day still costs the stated Long-Term
Fatigue level. City & Guild, page 85, provides
more detail on travel speeds. Targets affected
by this spell use speeds close to the top end
of the applicable travel speeds.
(Base 2, +1 Touch, +1 Conc, +1 Part,
+1 stone)

The bearer of the ring gains the eyes of a cat, which allow him or her to see in near darkness (but not in absolute darkness, such as a lightless subterranean cavern).

Ring of Health

The bearer of the ring gains a +9 bonus to Recovery rolls to recover from injuries or diseases, as long as he has been under the influence of this device power for the whole of the recovery interval. The recovery interval is counted from the time that the ring is first worn on a finger; any previous time is ignored.
(Base 4, +1 Touch, +3 Sun, +3 levels environmental trigger, +1 level for twice daily)

HEROES’ BIRTHRIGHT 1 Make a body resistant to damage (+3 Soak).

R: Voice, D: Conc, T: Ind
Move a stone through the air as fast as a bird flies. When the caster stops concentrating, the stone immediately falls to the ground.
The spell’s name suggests one of its common applications: dropping a heavy rock onto someone. Because the stone falls naturally, such an attack is not subject to Magic Resistance. Instead, an aiming roll is required to hit the intended target (see ArM5, page 86). Attacking with this spell normally takes two rounds: one to move the stone over the target, and another to aim and release it.
Damage inflicted depends mainly on the size of the stone: +5 for a stone the size of a man’s fist, +10 for a typical building-stone, up to +21 for a large boulder (see also the Impact Table on page 181 of ArM5). Particularly large stones can damage structures as well as creatures.
The main limitation on this spell’s combat effectiveness is the availability of large stones. Vilano himself once lamented that there was never a good rock around when he needed one!
(Base 3, +2 Voice, +1 Concentration, +1 affect stone)

You intuitively sense whenever something is wrong, or is likely to go wrong soon. This Ability can be called upon by you or the storyguide, as appropriate, whenever there is a chance to avoid danger. Roll Perception + Premonitions against an Ease Factor depending on the situation. The Ease Factor starts at 3 for imminent, mortal peril, and increases as the distance in time increases and the level of danger decreases. Mortal peril a week in the future would have an Ease Factor of 9, while an imminent minor inconvenience would have an Ease Factor of about 15. If you beat the Ease Factor by 3 or more, you also get some sense of the nature of the danger, with more detail if you roll more highly.
You are able to see through illusionary concealment and disguise, including invisibility, and can also see naturally invisible things such as spirits and the boundaries between regio levels. The Ease Factor to see through illusionary concealment is normally equal to 6 + the magnitude of the might of the creature responsible for the effect, or 6 + the magnitude of a Hermetic spell. In general, this Virtue allows you to see through Hermetic Imaginem concealment, but not other kinds. The Magic Resistance, if any, of the concealed creature does not interfere with your Second Sight. If something is actually transformed, for example by a MuCo spell, you cannot determine the genuine form. The Ease Factor to see a naturally invisible thing is normally 9, and the Ease Factor for seeing regio levels is specified on page 189. All Second Sight rolls are Perception + Second Sight.
When you set your mind to it, you can influence others with your music. For a specific effect, you must sing words that people can understand. You can calm the grieving with tunes alone, but you need lyrics to convince peasants to rise up against the local lord. General effects work on animals, but specific effects only work on creatures that can understand words. When you use Enchanting Music, roll a die (stress or simple, depending on the situation) and add Communication and Enchanting Music. An Ease Factor of 9+will calm the upset, 12 will win someone’s love, 15 will incite a riot, and a 24 might win back a soul from the Prince of Darkness. If you botch, you inspire an unwanted emotion. If the target has Magic Resistance, you must penetrate their resistance; see page 184 for rules. You should also roll for the quality of the musical performance, but the magical effect is independent of this, unless you botch. If you do botch the Music roll, you have failed to produce any music for some reason, and so the Supernatural Ability automatically fails

First, you have natural longevity. You start making aging rolls at the age of 50, rather than the normal 35, and get –3 to Aging Rolls, cumulative with any other bonuses.
Second, you have faerie eyes. This gives you the Virtue Second Sight at no cost, and you can see normally in darkness or semi-darkness, such as in deep woods or at night. Your eyes look mostly normal, but are an unusual and vivid color.
Third, you may learn Faerie Lore during character generation.
Finally, you get +1 to your Presence and many mortals may consider you fascinating or alluring. Your fay heritage is clearly visible when you literally blue blood bleed out.
Riding a horse, in a cart, or sailing on a ship makes you violently ill. When not traveling on foot, you suffer double the fatigue loss on long journeys specified on page 185, with a minimum loss of two Fatigue levels. Violent jostling over a period of a few hours could conceivably lead to unconsciousness.
Your natural body rhythms try to keep you sleeping until noon. You are at –1 on all rolls made between dawn and midday. Conversely, you have little difficulty staying up at night.

Плохо быть диаволистом. Сначала ты по крупицам собираешь силу и знания, потом узнаёшь, что для правильного выполнения ритуала тебе недостаточно такой мелочи как некрещёный младенец или кровь девственницы, а нужно тебе ни много ни мало, но дитя с Даром. Тратишь годы на поиски, похищаешь, не даёшь подохнуть этому сопливому убожеству до того, как светила займут правильное положение. И вот, когда уже кровь жертвы пролилась на алтарь, напоив энергией тщательно выведенные символы, когда сила бурлит вокруг, а ты стоишь в полумиге от всемогущества, обязательно вломится какой-то занудный Квезитор со своей тварью и толпой гоплитов!
Магические барьеры и стражи-люди не справляются со своей задачей, но опытного чернокнижника и этим не смутишь. Давай, Кринос, покажи, на что ты способен! Одним ударом тебе со мной не справиться, это будет долгая битва, в которой ты проиграешь. Проиграешь, потому что полностью сосредоточился на мне и потому что тебе, как всем нам, плевать на простых смертных. А ведь мне даже не обязательно добивать жертву ритуальным ножом, через несколько вдохов она скончается сама. На тёмном алтаре, залитом её кровью, напоённом её мучениями – призванная сущность уже здесь, остался последний штрих до перехода её в наш мир!
Но что это? Проклятый Квезитор словно прочитал его мысли! Вот он что-то командует своей бешеной твари, что лишь с виду похожа на собаку, и та прыжком взлетает на алтарь. Пытается рвать верёвки, что удерживают жертву, лижет её в лицо, стараясь привести в сознание.
Не допустить! Чудовищный удар обрушивается на магического зверя Квезитора, но верный фамильяр не сдаётся. Даже умирая он продолжает выполнять последний приказ хозяина – спасти девочку. Защитить её любой ценой. И чудовищный вовсе-не-пёс опять грызёт верёвки, лижет лицо, прижимается всем телом, пытаясь согреть...
Последнее, что видит пропустивший фатальный удар демонолог, это руки девочки, зарывшиеся в жёсткую шерсть.

Кринос Гверникус не был особенно рад внезапно свалившейся на его голову ученице, но Анхелика – так звали спасённую девочку – проявила недюжинную твёрдость характера и наотрез отказалась идти в обучение к любому другому магу.
А, может, свою роль сыграло негромкое цоканье когтей, что порой сопровождало появление ученицы, словно за ней шла большая собака или кто-то вроде того? Девочка же играла с призраком как с обычным псом и не видела в этом ничего странного. А когда ей сказали, что это не собака, а барск, магический зверь и очень опасный хищник, она лишь ответила, что Вайс умный и никогда её не обидит.
Нет, совершенно точно такой серьёзный и уважаемый маг не мог принять важное решение, опираясь лишь на сентиментальность и возможность хоть так не расставаться со своим фамильяром, погибшим при исполнении служебного долга и ставшим призраком, выполняя его приказ.

Дневник Грегориос аккуратно заполняет каждый день. Шифром.

1. Текст пишется на ромейском греческом.
2. Первым в тексте ставится греческая буква с порядковым номером, соответствующим номеру текущего дня в лунном месяце (первый - альфа, второй - бета и т.д.)
3. Затем к тексту применяется классический шифр Цезаря со сдвигом на число букв, равным номеру дня.
4. Затем получившаяся последовательность греческих букв перешифровывается простым шифром замены - вот таким:

Но с греческими буквами.

Шифруется все на восковых табличках:
- Текст на левой - текст после этапа 3 - на правой, потом открытый текст стирается, и на левую заносится окончательно зашифрованный текст. Потом Грегориос проверяет - все ли правильно - и заносит запись в дневник чернилами.
