target must succeed on a Stamina+Fortitude with a

The Scion’s body pulsates with holy power and the
flesh of her enemies weaken beneath her blows. The

clinches.
DEMIGOD Might of Herakles
Cost: 3 legend
Type: Supplemental
The Scion rips her enemy's armor to pieces and
leaves him exposed to further attacks.
The Scion may activate Might of Herakles when
she is making a single melee attack. If the attack

Epic Strength or bonus dice from any source. For
each success rolled, she reduces the soak of her
opponents armor by 2 but cannot reduce his natural
soak. When an armor loses all of its soak it becomes

raw damage on a Strength based damage roll.
DEMIGOD Making It Look Easy

with other lift enhancing powers.
DEMIGOD Master Wrestler
Cost: None
Type: Passive
The Scion may take a multiple actions while
engaged in a clinch but her second action may not
be used to attack the target of her original clinch,
she must attack a second target or take a
miscellaneous action. Her second attack may be any
type of attack, even another clinch. Note that if the
Scion is not in control of the clinch she may be
moved around by her enemy and some
miscellaneous actions require the Scion to stay in
one spot for a while, such as reading a dense book
or typing a lengthy command on computer screen.

GOD Crack the Earth

GOD The Might of Atlas
Cost: 10 legend + 1 willpower
Type: Supplemental

focuses her might and makes a lift of truly titanic
proportions. For one lift, the Scion's lifting capacity
is multiplied by 100. Stacks multiplicatively with
other lift enhancing powers.
GOD Divine Bound
Cost: 5 legend
Type: Simple
The Scion strains against the ground for a moment
before releasing her coiled muscles and taking a
jump one hundred times higher and longer than
normal. If this knack is used in combat and no one
has the capacity to follow her, she effectively leaves
combat. The ichor expended while activating this
knack protects her from any fall damage she would
have suffered from the landing.
Cost: 12 legend + 1 willpower
Type: 6 tick channel followed by a heavy unarmed
attack.
This power makes the earth feel the weight of a
God. The Scion lifts her foot or raises her fist and
infuses her body with divine might. When released,
she cracks anything that has the misfortune of being
underneath her strike.
The Scion’s player pays the cost and then spends 6
ticks focusing her power before she can unleash her
power during her following action. She may not
move while winding up or perform this boon while
in the air, she must remain stationary and grounded.
This means that in order to hit a living target it must
be immobilized while the Scion is focusing her
ichor. More often this technique is used to shatter
buildings, reinforced walls or to even crack the
earth itself.
When she strikes the attack is resolved as a heavy
unarmed attack and ignores all soak or hardness
that the target has and adds damage from her Epic
Strength twice.

DEMIGOD Spider Climber
Cost: 2 legend
Type: Supplemental Cost: 3 legend per climb
Type: Reflexive

5
Epic Dexterity
The Scion can now freely climb on any surface
regardless of material or shape. Like a spider, her
body sticks to the side of the wall and even to the
ceiling and the Scion may take multiple actions
while climbing.
If the Scion also has HERO Monkey Climber the
power of this knack is increased and all surfaces are
considered horizontal and she may traverse them
with the same ease as she does the ground floor.
The cost is paid once when the Scion leaves the
floor and the power lasts until she returns to normal
orientation(the ground or the floor).
DEMIGOD Flurry
Cost: 4 legend
Type: Simple
The Scion infuses her speed with divine power and
moves in a whirling storm of cuts and blows. The
Scion may activate this attack when making a
double attack to add a third attack to her attack
action. This third attack follows the same rule as
double attacks. She makes one attack roll for all of
her attacks which is at -4. Any damage roll made is
also at -4 damage dice
The Scion infuses her speed with divine power and
becomes unnaturally quick and precise. When
activating this knack the Scion may either take a
normal double attack action at −0 or make a triple
attack action at −4. The triple attack action
functions like the standard double attack action but
with one additional attack and the third attack
increments onslaught penalty as normal. As with
double attacks one roll is made for all three attacks
and any power that affect individual attacks must be
paid once for each attack that is to be augmented.
DEMIGOD Divine Grace
Cost: 3 legend
Type: Simple
The Scion focuses for a moment and quickens the
ichor in her veins. For one scene, her body becomes
unnaturally supple and light. For one scene her DV
is increased by half her Legend and she can stand or
surfaces that normally would not allow her weight.
Clotheslines, palm leaves or the tip of a spear. She
may also walk on water or other liquids as long as
they remain calm. Moreover, the Scion ignores all
penalties for rough terrain.
DEMIGOD Cat’s Grace
Cost: None
Type: Passive
Whenever the Scion rolls to resist knockdown she
maxes out her bonus dice cap by gaining bonus dice
equal to her Athletics+Legend.
DEMIGOD Escape Artist
Cost: 2 legend
Type: Supplemental
With this knack the Scion becomes unnaturally
hard to catch or pin down. Activating it she may
either automatically escapes any mundane fetters,
add her Dexterity as dice to escape supernatural
fetters or while in a clinch lets her take a special
Slip Away action. The Scion rolls for control of the
clinch as normal but adds her Dexterity+Legend as
bonus dice. If she succeeds she disengages from the
clinch and may use her Move that tick but she may
not damage, throw or manipulate her opponent in
any way.
DEMIGOD Fast as Thought
Cost: 3 legend
Type: Reflexive
The Scion’s Dash and Move is tripled(Dash is
quadrupled if she has Lightning Sprinter) and
allows her to run up for slopes up to 60 degrees and
over cliffs up to her Legendx5 meter without
stopping or slowing. She may also run on water or
any other liquid, the water need not be calm, she
can run through roaring storms and up massive
waves, as long as she does not stop she remains
afloat.
While this power is active the Scion ignores the law
of conservation of momentum and may start and

stop near instantaneously while it is active. This
knack lasts for one scene.
DEMIGOD Like a Reed in the Wind
Cost: 3 legend + 1 willpower
Type: Reflexive, Perfect Defense
Time slows down for the Scion and she see every
can arrow, bullet and blade inch towards her ever
so slowly. With ample time to map a safe course
between all the attacks coming towards her, she
avoids each and every one of them. When this
knack is activated the Scion dodges all attacks
levied against her on that tick.
This knack counts as a perfect defense and a
character may only activate one perfect defense per
scene.
DEMIGOD Knife in the Dark
Cost: None
Type: Passive
The Scion capitalizes on the unwary and
unprepared. Whenever she makes an Unexpected
Attack and her target fails his perception roll to spot
her, she adds her Dexterity as extra damage
dice(that does not count toward the bonus damage
dice cap) to the damage roll of her attack.
GOD Sola Gratia
Cost: None
Type: Passive
The Scion can activate one additional Perfect
Defense per scene.
GOD Seven-League Steps / Many-Mile Step /
Coast-to-Coast
Cost: 10 legend
Type: Reflexive
The Scion's body becomes capable of truly divine
speeds. As she strains her body to take the first step
the Scion pays to activate this knack and rolls
Dexterity+Athletics. For every turn spent running
7
Epic Dexterity
thereafter the Scion's Dash speed is increased. After
the first round its doubled, after the second round
its tripled, after the third its quadrupled and so on
to a maximum multiplier equal to the successes
rolled on the activation roll. This Dash increase
stacks multiplicatively with other similar powers.
The Scion's sideways mobility is proportionally
increased and she has no trouble twisting and
turning around obstacles or making sudden turns.
Her body, clothes and equipment is protected from
the air friction while using this knack and the bonus
speed lasts until she comes to a full stop.
As a rule of thumb, at a Dash of 750 the Scion is
keeping up with a commercial airliner and at a 1000
she breaks the sound barrier.
GOD Microscopic Precision
Cost: None
Type: Passive
REDO? REMOVE?
The Scion with this knack has micrometer precision
in all her actions and can given the right tools pick
out separate bacteria from a petridish, do in vitro
fertilization or build a microprocessor by hand. She
still needs to be able to see what she is doing and
working on such a small scale requires Epic
Perception knacks, a microscope or equivalent.

Cost: 7 legend + 1 Willpower
Type: Supplemental

almost impossible to see, leaving behind bleeding
gashes, open wounds and lopped of body parts with
seemingly no movement on the Scion's part.

Unexpected Attack. The target may spot it if he

succeeds on a Perception+Awareness roll at a
difficulty equal the Scion's Dexterity+(Melee or
Brawl). If the target spots it he retains half his

as he completely fails to see the attack coming.

DEMIGOD Spirit of Achilles
Cost: 3 legend + 1 willpower

before soak is applied. Once activated, all attacks
that hit the Scion during that tick have their damage

spent.
HERO Benefit of the Doubt
Cost: 2 legend
Type: Miscellaneous action

she has to say, regardless how bizarre or outlandish
her suggestions are.
When this knack is activated the Scion rolls
Charisma+Presence against the defenders
Wits+Integrity. The effect lasts for a number of
minutes equal to the threshold successes or until the
Scion changes the subject. The power can be used
to end combat between the Scion and an aggressor

HERO Indoor Voice

Cost: 1 legend
Type: Reflexive

clearly heard by everyone in the hall, regardless of
its size. Lasts for one scene or until canceled.
HERO Inspirational Figure
Cost: 2 legend
Type: Simple

One person per dot of Legend she has gain 2/4/6(if
the Scion is hero/demigod/god) dice on their two
next actions plus one action for every 10 successes
rolled on a Charisma+Presence roll. These dice are
awarded as bonus dice on any action that follow the
Scion’s lead.
HERO Boys Will be Boys / Girls Just Wanna
Have Fun
Cost: None
Type: Passive
Whenever the Scion gets in trouble with an
authority figure, an upset witness or an angry
father, possibly because she’s been somewhere she
shouldn’t be or done somewhere she shouldn’t have
done she can simply smile, say something endearing
and slip out of the trouble.
Whenever the Scion earns someone’s ill will, this ire
must be directed at the Scion personally not
because of who she is but because of what she has
done. She adds her Charisma as bonus dice to all
attempts to avoid this ire, either by talking herself
out of the situation or by running really fast. Thus,
this knack can give bonus dice to both social and
physical actions, however it cannot increase DVs.

HERO Natural Leader
Cost: None
Type: Passive
People naturally look towards the Scion for
guidance and leadership, regardless if the Scion is
willing or not she tends to be the type that gets
asked for help, that stands out from a crowd and
that takes charge when no one else does.
Other than humans naturally turning to the Scion
she may count her Charisma as bonus roll when
attempting to lead someone. The target need not
consider himself to be the Scion’s follower but as
long as she’s attempting to lead she gains the bonus.
Leadership is not only about giving orders but also
resolving disputes within the group, fostering
morale in tough times and maintaining a personal
connection with her followers. This knack only
gives her bonus dice when attempting to affect her
followers but not to read their qualities, flaws or
mood.
DEMIGOD God’s Gift
Cost: 2 legend
Type: Simple
The act of giving a gift is surrounded by many social
rules. A gift must be fitting for the recipient, if
fitting it must be accepted and when accepted it
must later at some point be returned by gift or favor
of equal value.
The Scion has mastered the art of gift giving. By
possessing only a few tidbits of information of the
recipient she can select a gift that appeals to the
target’s true nature while it also speaks of the
Scion’s elegance and understanding. The Scion
spends the legend and gains an immediate
understanding of the perfect gift for the occasion.
If she can acquire this gift and she will gain her
Legend as extra dice(does not count toward the
bonus dice cap) when presenting the gift to her
target. Refusing the gift is very hard and requires a
Wits+Integrity resistance roll to do so. A failed roll
means that the recipient cannot find it in himself to
refuse the gift and he is later expected to reciprocate
something of equal value.
13
Epic Charisma
Keep in mind that this power only helps the Scion
know what the perfect gift is, it does not help her
get it. In general the more ancient the recipient is
the more esoteric the perfect gift becomes but
exceptions exist. Zeus might be old but he is not
always very complicated and would be pleased by a
60 foot statue in his honor placed in Times Square.
Or taller. Taller is better. Anansi might require a
story he never heard before, both riveting and well
told. Hundun would be pleased if someone changed
to world, throwing out the old and creating some
new never before seen.
DEMIGOD Heard, Understood, Acknowledged
Cost: 2 legend
Type: Simple
The Scion gives an order with such confidence and
self-evident authority that the listener mentally
shifts any responsibility to the Scion giving the
order and does what he's told. The Scion rolls
Charisma+Presence against the target's
Wits+Integrity. If the roll succeeds, the target
follows the Scion's order.
When ordering a person who opposes the Scion's
authority the difficulty is increased by 3.
DEMIGOD Into The Breach
Cost: None
Type: Passive
Any Swarm under the Scion's direct control
doubles their Join Battle roll.
DEMIGOD Paragon of Virtue
Cost: 3 legend
Type: Around one minute
The Scion makes a quick a speech and all allies that
can hear it are inspired. Any virtue activation that
works along with the spirit of the speech count as
the virtue being 1 higher than normal. Virtues can
exceed the maximum of 5 with this effect.
DEMIGOD Never Say Die
Epic Charisma
Cost: 3 legend
Type: Reflexive
When the Scion takes damage she does so either
with such an unflinching manner, by waking great
sympathy or does a display of strength when
recovering that everyone around her is roused to
action.
After she has taken damage, the Scion may activate
this knack and then rolls Charisma+Presence. All
her allies then receive a number of bonus dice equal
to the successes rolled on their next combat action,
but no more than the amount of health levels the
Scion lost in the attack. The Scion may only activate
Never Say Die once per scene.
DEMIGOD Filibuster
Cost: 2 legend per hour
Type: Miscellaneous Action
The Scion starts talking and as long as she takes no
other action other than speaking or moves from the
spot, people have to listen. The Scion rolls
Charisma+Presence agains the target’s
Wits+Integrity. Listeners who faint from exhaustion
are no longer affected by this power.
DEMIGOD Virtue is its own Reward
Cost: None
Type: Passive
When the Scion activates a Virtue, it grants
additional dice equal to her dots in Charisma. Like
all dice gained from Virtues, these dice do not count
towards the bonus dice cap.
DEMIGOD Bask in my Glory
Cost: None
Type: Passive
When the Scion takes the limelight she represents
not only herself but her allies as well. When the
Scion stunts she may choose to award any legend
points earned to her nearby allies instead. Each ally
receives the full amount of legend from the stunt
but the Scion herself receives none. She may only
transfer legend points with Bask in my Glory, not
willpower points and she may not affect more allies
than she has dots in Legend.
DEMIGOD Social Chameleon
Cost: None
Type: Passive
The Scion automatically melds with the cultural
norms around her and never suffers penalties for
being suffused in a different culture. Rather, she
pleasantly surprises people with her understanding
of their ways.
GOD Engender Love
Cost: 5 legend + 1 willpower
Type: Simple
By looking in their eyes, kissing them or simply
saying the right words the Scion makes his target
love her unconditionally. The Scion must succeed
with a difficulty 5 Charisma+Presence roll against
to the target’s Wits+Integrity. If power takes effect
the target falls hopelessly in love with the Scion for
a number of days equal to the threshold successes
on the roll, after which the feelings may still linger
but are then not supernatural in origin.

REMOVE THIS? OR BUFF IT
The Scion gathers a group around her to work on a
project. The enthusiasm for the project is contagious
and mortals that come in contact with the group will
join the group and help with the work. The group
can at most hold a number of indivuals equal to 20

Type: Reflexive
Adds 2 bonus dice to any Manipulation roll per 1

HERO Perfect Impostor
Cost: 2 legend
Type: Reflexive
The Scion studies a mark for a while, learning his
demeanor and body language. She spends the
legend and mimics her mark to near perfection. Her
accent, her mannerism and the like is perfectly
matched but this power does not provide the Scion
with a physical disguise. The Scion enjoys bonus
dice equal to her Manipulation while attempting to
impersonate the mark. Mortals are automatically
fooled even without a disguise, while supernatural
beings roll as normal. Not having a disguise
increases the difficulty roll at least 5.
HERO Blame James
Cost: 2 legend
Type: Simple
After an unfortunate turn of events where the blame
is uncertain, the Scion may point the finger at
another and assign the blame to him. She rolls
Manipulation+Presence against the crowd she’s
attempting to convince and notes her result while
the listeners roll Wits+Integrity to resist the effect.

equivalent.
HERO Secondhand Persuasion
Cost: None
16
Type: Passive
The Scion may use her social powers through the

Type: Passive
The Scion gains her Manipulation as bonus dice
whenever she’s trying to make a person say too
much or give himself away, for example under
interrogations.
HERO Takes One to Know One
Cost: None
Type: Passive
A master manipulator is not easily fooled. The Scion
always adds her Manipulation as bonus dice when
attempting to detect lies, deceit or to spot someone
keeping a secret.
DEMIGOD Gods’ Honest
Cost: 2 legend + 1 Willpower.
Type: Reflexive
When caught lying and socially confronted about it,
the Scion crosses her heart, swears on her mother’s
grave or performs any other ritual of veracity,
vouching for her sincerity.
If a lie that the Scion told is spotted but the
threshold successes are below the Scion’s
Manipulation, she may activate this knack and seem
utterly sincere. Perhaps she misunderstood, had the
wrong facts or accidentally mixed words together.
People will not believe what she said, but they’ll
believe that she thought it was true and therefor
wasn’t trying to mislead them.

DEMIGOD Instant Hypnosis
Cost: 5 legend + 1 willpower
Type: Simple
At eye contact the Scion may roll
Manipulation+Command against the victim’s
Wits+Integrity and if she succeeds she may plant a
command in the victim’s subconscious. The
command lies dormant for up to a number of
months equal to the Scion’s Legend rating and the
command must be an action that can be performed
in the span of one scene.
Mortals follow the command literally while
supernatural beings have some room for
interpretation. Each such reinterpretation costs the
Scion one willpower.
DEMIGOD Need to Know Basis
Cost: 3 legend
Type: Simple
When the Scion sends a messenger, she can make
sure the messenger doesn’t know the meaning of the
message he is passing along. The message must have
a specified recipient and the Scion must have at
least a passing knowledge of the recipients
personality. She can then craft a message that will
be crystal clear to the recipient but will come off as
vague sophistry to any one else listening. Scions
often use this power to pass along sensitive
information that mustn’t fall into her enemies’
hands.
The Scion rolls Manipulation+Command and notes
the result when she pays the activation cost and
should someone other than the intended recipient
try to understand the message, that person must
first know who the message was intended for,
having a passing knowledge of the recipients
personality, make the messenger tell him the
message and then succeed on a Wits+Empathy roll
with a difficulty of the Scion’s activation roll plus 5.
DEMIGOD Implant False Memory
Cost: 3 legend + 1 Willpower
Type: Simple
17
Epic Manipulation
A mind is a malleable thing and every time we
remember something, our mind reconstructs it,
sometimes rearranging it. A skilled Scion can
tamper with this process altering or creating
memories in her target from whole cloth. It is a
difficult technique but its potential, if correctly
employed, is second to none.
The Scion engages her target in conversation for at
least a minute and may then activate the knack. She
pays the cost and rolls Manipulation+Presence at
difficulty 3 against the target’s Wits+Integrity. If the
roll is successful the Scion may alter an existing
memory or insert a new one.
Even if the target should realize that his memories
are false and someone tampered with his mind, the
crafted memories still remain and any lost memories
must be reconstructed either by having them told to
him or by reliving them through other means.
DEMIGOD Deprogramming

and three legend for every willpower spent in the
original effect that the Scion wishes to purge. The
Scion rolls her Manipulation+Presence against the
successes rolled on the activation roll of the original
effect. Should she succeed, the original effect is
broken.
DEMIGOD Rumor Mill
Cost: 5 legend
Type: Miscellaneous action
The Scion starts a rumor that, with enough
Manipulation+Politics can spread to news media
world wide. It takes 30 days minus the Scion’s

the rumor to spread(minimum one hour). Once
spread, the story lingers for her Legend number of

Cost: 1 legend / 2 dice
Type: Reflexive
Adds 2 bonus dice to any Appearance roll per 1
legend spent.
HERO Disarming Smile / Blood Freezing Grin
Cost: 3 legend
Type: Simple
The Scion chooses the right time to weaken the
mental defenses of her target with a radiant smile,
panic inducing grin or comparable gesture. The
Scion’s player rolls Appearance+Presence against
the target’s Wits+Integrity. Any threshold successes
reduces the target’s Integrity when used to defend
against the Scion’s social actions for the rest of the
scene, his Integrity cannot be lower than zero.
This knack can only be attempted once per target
per scene.
HERO Center of Attention
Cost: 1 legend
Type: Reflexive
The Scion gets the undivided attention of all that
can see her for a number of minutes equal to her
Appearance. Against supernatural creatures an
opposed Appearance+Presence vs Wits+Integrity is
required for the knack to be effective. A person’s
attention may not be diverted to the same Scion
more than once per scene.
HERO Serpent’s Gaze
Cost: 2 legend
Type: Simple
The Scion locks her eyes on her victim in a hypnotic
stare. The Scion rolls Appearance+Presence against
the target’s Wits+Integrity. If successful she forces
19
him to remain inactive until she removes her gaze.
The Scion can still act but must do so through
multiple actions and cannot break eye contact with
her target for longer than a split second.
If the target takes any damage the effect breaks and
he may defend himself with half his normal DV.
Further, when it is his turn to act the target may
attempt to break the effect by rolling Wits+Integrity
against the Scion’s initial roll. This is a speed 6
action.
HERO My Eyes are up Here
Cost: 1 legend
Type: Reflexive
Removes the effect the Scion’s supernatural beauty
has on others for one scene. The Scion is still
striking, but her mere presence no longer leaves
mortals spellbound and she can disappear into a
crowd, something that is practically impossible
without this power. Activating any other
appearance knacks cancels this power early.
Requires positive appearance.
HERO First Impressions Last
Cost: None
Type: Passive
When the Scion meets someone face to face for the
first time she gains her dots in Appearance as extra
dice to all social rolls against that person for the first
scene that they interact and these dice do not count
toward the bonus dice cap. The other party must be
able to see the Scion for this knack to take effect
and it must be in real life, this power has no effect
over a video link or a photograph.
HERO Femme Fatale(a.k.a Don Juan)
Cost: None
Type: Passive
Epic Appearence
Whenever the Scion attempts to seduce a target by

Appearance instead of her Charisma when rolling to
charm, sweet talk or otherwise endear herself to the
target. Moreover she adds her Appearance as bonus
dice to any seduction roll. Requires positive
appearance.
HERO Bloody Mary
Cost: None
Type: Passive
The Scion’s appearance is truly ghastly and mortals
around her avert their eyes, children cry and even
other Scion’s hesitate. The Scion may roll her
Appearance instead of her Manipulation when
rolling to coerce, browbeat or threaten the target.
Moreover she adds her Appearance as bonus dice
for all intimidation rolls. Requires negative
appearance.
DEMIGOD Look at me Instead
Cost: 2 legend
Type: Reflexive
When one of the Scion’s allies are the target of a
social action she may divert that action to herself by
activating this knack. The Scion rolls her
Wits+Integrity to defend against the attack and the
intended target remains unaffected. To activate this
power the Scion must be aware that her friend is
targeted and the attacker must be able to see the
Scion.
DEMIGOD Adoration of the Crowd / Nightmare
Fuel
Cost: 1 Willpower
Type: Simple
Mortals are drawn to the Scion in adoration or
terror, either way her divine appearance demands
recognition and her visage is unforgettable. As the
humans talk among themselves her legend swells,
granting the Scion more power to fuel her abilities.
While among humans the Scion rolls
Appearance+Presence but may not add dice or
successes from any source save Epic Appearance.
For every success rolled she can regain one point of
legend. For Scions with positive Appearance a
crowd gathers around her and she has to bask in its
adoration for five minutes to gain the full amount of
legend. Scions with negative appearance must have
her true appearance seen by three humans for every
point of legend she is to regain but these humans
are under no obligation to stay and look at the
Scion. Staying for only part of the time in the crowd
or scaring only part of the required humans
replenishes only part of the legend.
This knack may only be activated once per day.

The Scion uncovers her monstrous visage, baring it

the Scion anywhere in their vision, even in the
corner of their eyes, is affected by this power. If
they engage her either socially or in melee combat
they lose dice on their attack or influence rolls equal
to the Scion’s Appearance. Closing your eyes or
turning your back to the Scion avoids the effect but
counts as fighting blind. Moreover, turning your
back leaves you exposed unexpected attacks and
monstrous Scions often creep close and use the
target’s unwillingness to look at them to their
advantage. Requires negative Epic Appearance.

information, increasing her ability to penetrate the
defenses of her target.
Directly after the Scion has attacked a target in
combat, regardless if she hit or not, she may take a
special Analyze Defense action(2 ticks, -0 DV) to
analyze the defenses of her target. When doing so
she rolls her Intelligence+Awareness against the
target's Dexterity+(Athletics or Brawl or Melee). If
she succeeds she finds a weakness in her target's
defense and reduces his DV by her
Legend/4(rounded up) against her attacks for the
rest of the scene.
The effects of this knack can be applied two times,
with two applications lowering the target's defense
by the Scion's Legend/2(rounded up). This insight
lasts for 24 hours after which the DV reduction
fades.
DEMIGOD Photographic Deduction
Cost: None
Type: Passive
No piece of information goes unnoticed by the
Scion. When she lays eyes on a scene, she
automatically begins to make deductions from any
detail, no matter how insignificant it may seem.
Tanned hands but not arms suggest being abroad
recently but for work not a holiday. A person’s gaze
as he enters a room hints of military training. Dirt
on the one pant leg suggests carrying a heavy suit
case in the rain. Cups and trays in a room belong to
a left handed person due to their positioning, and so
on.
With this knack, the Scion may for no cost reroll
and choose the highest result on all rolls for
deduction such as inspecting a crime scene or
diagnosing an illness. If the Scion has the
Intelligence knack DEMIGOD Eidetic Memory
she may also peruse her memory banks and make
deductions from old information that only later
became relevant.
DEMIGOD Mind over Matter
Cost: None
Type: Passive
The Scion sees Creation clearly, as a web of
interconnected elemental forces, coalescing to form
the energy and matter in the here and now. Her
proficiency at bending this energy to her will is
remarkable even among Scions.
Any time the she rolls a boon activation roll that
includes her Intelligence, she gains bonus dice equal
to her dots of Intelligence to the roll.
DEMIGOD Multitasking

GE NÅGON SLAGS MENINGSFULL

reprogram the operating system on her computer,
formulating military strategy or focus intently on
one of her senses like listening to a conversation or
watching a television broadcast.
DEMIGOD Know Thy Self
Cost: None
Type: Passive
Either because of a carefree disposition, countless
hours of meditation or a callousness to her fellow
man the Scion has gained understanding of the
inner workings of her own mind.
Whenever the Scion gains Willpower points she
gains one additional point of Willpower.
DEMIGOD Perfect Deconstruction
Cost: None
Type: Reflexive
The Scion perfectly dissects the arguments of her
opponent when they attempt to mislead, con or fast
talk her. Further, she remains unfazed by moral
arguments or attempts to force a value system onto
her that she does not share. As such this knack

activates against people that try to distort the facts
but not when they try to hide them with lies.
When defending against these types of influences,
instead of paying 2 legend for a reroll she gains a
free reroll on her social defense and may pick the
higher of the two results.
DEMIGOD Eidetic Memory
Cost: None
Type: Passive
The Scion remembers everything she experiences in
perfect detail. Any piece of information she comes
by she can recall perfectly. Be it every single
wording of the latest appropriations bill, the one
thousand and seventh decimal of pi or on what
word the author blotched the manuscript she read
twenty years ago. Other than being able to recall
everything she has experienced, the Scion also gains
her Legend rating as bonus dice on any knowledge
based roll as well as defending against memory
altering powers.
This knack is not retroactive and memories gained
before purchasing this knack cannot be recalled
perfectly.
DEMIGOD Measure Twice, Cut Once
Cost: None
Type: Passive
The Scion can stretch magical materials further
when crafting relics and may make additional copies
of the relic she wants to craft. She may, from the
same batch of magical materials, craft multiple
copies of her intended relic. All relics crafted are
alike and all have the same enchantments and she
must commit to the number of copies she wishes to
craft before the crafting roll is made. The difficulty
of the crafting roll is increased by 10 for each extra
relic she wishes to craft. Note that failing with more

pattern of a ruptured artery. The Scion surveys the
situation in front of her and focuses her mind, trying
to predict future events before they come to pass.
This power does not provide a link to the Fates and
the Scion must have all necessary information
required to perform the simulation available to her.
Depending on the complexity of the problem this
can take a few seconds or up to a minute or two.
She rolls Intelligence+a relevant ability(e.g. science,
empathy or politics) at a difficulty set by the
Storyteller. For an event with many interdependant
factors like the flow of traffic in a large city the
projection into the future is short(a couple of
minutes). An event with fewer interactions, for
example a reaction in a social setting lets the Scion
project further into the future(a few days) and an
event with very few interactions or very predictable
interactions like path of a comet through a solar
system can be projected very far into the
future(months or years).
Epic Intelligence

If the Scion is successful she projects a for all

purposes correct simulation of the future to her
mind's eye and can examine it over and over again.

 Affliction
A Scion with mastery of Affliction is a frightening creature. She controls and can unleash pestilence, plagues
and diseases upon any target of her ire. With this purview the Scion can spread disease, craft her own
supernatural ailments and inflict afflictions of the mind on her enemies. Masters of this purview can create
drought and famine, cast entire cities into prattling insanity and craft diseases that affects only specific
populations, such as every first born along the Nile.

HERO Blood Boil She rolls her (Intelligence or Wits)+Medicine

Cost: 2 legend
Type: Supplemental
The Scion conjures a disease directly into her
enemy, wracking him with fever and weakening his
body. The disease causes burning pain in the
victim’s arteries and heart.
against the target’s Stamina+Fortitude and the
target is cursed for one day per threshold success
the Scion rolled. While cursed the target loses dice
when rolling to resist infection equal to the Scion’s
dots in Legend and take double damage from
diseases.

This boon is activated when touching an enemy HERO Unkempt Mind

either with her hands or being hit by any weapon. If
this boon is part of an attack it must be activated
before the attack roll is made. If the Scion hits the
target she rolls (Intelligence or Wits)+Medicine and
counts the successes as the disease’s Infectivity. The
target must roll Stamina+Fortitude against the
Infectivity or become infected. The disease has a
Severity equal to the Scion’s dots in Legend and a
duration of 1 week. After one scene the infection
sets in and the target becomes anemic resulting in
weakness and loss of sensation in the limbs. Instead
of losing -2 to all actions like normal diseases he
loses dice and DV equal to the Scion’s dots in
Legend.
The conjured disease is supernatural in nature and
cannot be kept or stored outside of the target’s
body.
Cost: 2 legend
Type: Simple
The Scion touches or locks eyes with her target for
a few seconds and tangles his mind. The Scion rolls
her (Intelligence or Wits)+Medicine against the
target’s Wits+Integrity and if she succeeds the
target loses dice equal to the Scion’s dots in Legend
to all mental actions such as reading, writing,
problem solving, mathematics and the like.
If the target fails the resistance roll with 5 or more
successes the he also becomes aphasic as the
language center of his brain goes haywire and fails
to connect the rest of her mind to the correct words.
In both hearing and speech he mixes words together
and can neither understand nor be understood
through any language.

HERO Curse of Tlazolteotl HERO Plague of Locusts

Cost: 4 legend Cost: 5 legend

Type: Simple Type: Simple

The Scion looks upon a target within 3 meters per
dot of Legend she has and curses his flesh, exposing
it for disease and sickness.
The Scion calls down a plague to destroy crops.
Diseases, parasites, fungus or the eponymous
locusts. She must channel her magic for at least five
minutes while traveling through the fields she
wishes to curse. The plague is highly resistant to

32

normal pesticides and lasts for one week per success
rolled on a (Intelligence or Wits)+Occult roll
whereafter it disappears as quickly as it appeared.
She curses an area with a radius of one kilometer
per dot of Legend she has.
DEMIGOD Typhoid Mary
Cost: No Cost
Type: Passive
Upon purchasing this boon the Scion becomes an
eternal carrier for disease. Whenever she is exposed
to a disease she immediately understands its nature
and perceives the disease statistics as well as its
other effects. If the disease is a mundane disease she
does not roll for infection but may instead fuse it
with her ichor so that it becomes part of her being.
She can still be infected by supernatural diseases
but reduces the difficulty of avoiding infection by
half the dots she has in Legend.
She herself suffers no debilitating effects of a
disease she has fused with but may choose to
become contagious with it whenever she wishes and
the disease then follows its normal transmission
vectors. The Scion can however ignore transmission
vectors with abilities like HERO Outbreak. If she
chooses to be contagious with several diseases
anyone exposed must roll to resist each of the
diseases separately.
DEMIGOD Loom of Contagion
Cost: 15 legend per day
Type: Simple
With this feared boon the Scion gains the ability to
tweak existing diseases with her magic and take out
less desirable traits while infusing it with more
potent ones and may even give the disease
supernatural abilities that normal diseases cannot
possess.
The Scion must have access to a mundane disease
either in a container, in a living host or within
herself if she has the boon DEMIGOD Typhoid
Mary. She takes one week to weave the new strain
from the old disease and must spend at least 8 hours
per day mutating the disease as well as pay the
activation cost of this boon every day.
33
Affliction
Once the boon is performed the disease’s Severity
and Infectivity are increased by an amount equal to
the Scion’s dots in Legend and she may also add
two traits from the list below to the disease. When
all this is done the mutation is complete and the new
disease now counts as a supernatural disease.
Infect Ichor - If the infected is a supernatural
creature his ichor becomes infected by the disease
and he can no longer passively regenerate points of
legend while the infection lasts. Active regeneration
from boons, knacks and stunts still function as
normal.
Unstable Humors - The Scion names an emotion,
like sadness, rage or love that the disease both
invokes and amplifies. All infected must roll
Wits+Integrity against a difficulty of two times the
Scion’s Legend rating at the start of every scene or
be overcome by the emotion. If they succeed, they
still feel the emotion but they are free to act of their
own accord.
Psychotic Compulsion - The infected gain a minor
compulsion that they must perform such as “never
tell the truth”, “think out loud”, “write everything
down”, “always walk backwards”, “only tell the
truth” or “count every grain of rice on the floor you
find”. The infected cannot be compelled to severely
injure themselves or to not defend against attacks.
Once per scene the infected may attempt to
overcome the compulsion by rolling Wits+Integrity
against a difficulty of two times the Scion’s Legend
rating. If successful she is free of it for the rest of
the scene.
Rapid Evolution - The Scion may freely rearrange
the transmission vectors and the base duration of
the disease. If the disease also has the Hyper
Agressive trait the duration may not be increased
beyond 2 days.
Hidden Infection - The disease presents no typical
signs of infection like fever, shortness of breath,
muscle fatigue or the like and is completely painless
to the infected. Once the infected’s damage reaches
her -4 health level she suddenly presents the now
full blown disease. The disease can still be identified
with the advanced diagnostic techniques of modern
medicine or by magical means.
Hyper Aggressive - The infected must roll for
damage every hour instead of every day but the
disease’s duration can never be longer than 2 days.
Antimicrobial Resistance - The disease is highly
resistant to medical interventions and any healer is
Affliction
at -4 successes on each roll they make towards
finding a cure.
Targeted Infection - The Scion names a group of
people as she casts this boon and only those people
will be eligible targets for infection by the disease
while everyone else are immune. This group can be
a genetic or ethnical group such as “Japanese” or
“Native Americans” or it can be an abstract group
like “Carpenters”, “The one percent”, or “The first
born of each family”. If a person ceases to be a part
of the targeted group he also becomes immune to
the disease.
DEMIGOD Outbreak
Cost: 1 legend per disease’s Severity
Type: Simple
The Scion looks upon any transmittable disease,
either in a test tube or in a host, and forces it onto
others in the surrounding area. This costs 1 point of
legend per severity of the disease.
The disease is magically transmitted to a number of
uninfected persons equal to her Legend rating and
the Scion may choose which victims to target. This
infection ignore normal disease vectors and the
disease will pass through test tubes, hazmat suits or
even concrete walls if there are eligible targets in
the vicinity but the Scion must be able to perceive
both the current vessel of the disease as well as the
targets she is attempting to infect. Each person
affected becomes exposed to the disease and must
roll Stamina+Fortitude against the disease’s
Infectivity or become infected. This boon has a
reach of 3 meters per dot of Legend the Scion has.
DEMIGOD Create Allergy
Cost: 6 legend + 1 willpower
Type: Simple
The Scion touches a person and the Scion's player
names a substance that the target's species is
normally able to eat and attempts to make the
person strongly allergic to it. She may not make the
target allergic to water or any other basic substance
that permeates the target’s entire body.
She rolls (Intelligence or Wits)+Medicine against
the target's Stamina+Fortitude. If successful she has
made him severely allergic to the substance for one
week.
If he ingests it he suffers a severe allergic reaction as
his immune system starts attacking his own body.
He may suffer nausea, swelling of the face and
throat, itching of the throat and eyes, stomach pain,
vomiting, diarrhea, organ damage or any
combination of the above.
Upon ingestion of the allergenic substance the
target takes dice of lethal damage dice equal to
three times the Scion’s dots in Legend(soaked as
normal) and is for the rest of the scene at -2 to all
actions and -2 to DV regardless if he took damage
or not.
DEMIGOD Create Phobia
Cost: 6 legend
Type: Simple
With a whisper and glance the Scion twists the
mind of her target and plants the seed of a crippling
phobia within her.
The Scion either touches or locks eyes with her
target for a few seconds and the Scion's player
names the object of his fear such as
dogs(cynophobia), open spaces(agoraphobia),
eyes(ommetophobia), holes(trypophobia) or
mirrors(spectrophobia). The Scion rolls her
(Intelligence or Wits)+Medicine and the target
defends with his Wits+Integrity and if he fails to
resist the attack he is afflicted with the phobia
which lasts for one week.
Whenever the target is exposed to the object of his
phobia he is overcome with fear and loses dice on all
rolls equal to the threshold successes that the Scion
scored on the activation roll of this boon and loses
DV equal to half of that amount(rounded up) until
source of the phobia has been removed or
destroyed.
DEMIGOD Necrotizing Fasciitis
Cost: 5 legend
Type: Supplemental
The Scion touches a person or uses this boon as
part of any attack to afflict the target with necrosis

in his wounds and converts lethal damage the target
has taken to aggravated damage.
If she hits the target she rolls her (Intelligence or
Wits)+Medicine and the target defends with his
Stamina+Fortitude. For every threshold success she
rolls one lethal damage the target has taken will be
converted into aggravated damage. Damage
inflicted by the Scion's attack is eligible to be
converted to aggravated but so is any damage the
target had taken before the Scion's attack. Multiple
applications of this boon stacks.
Multiple wounds of aggravated damage can lead to
permanent disfigurements, may even lead to
unusable limbs and might require amputations.
GOD Touch of Madness
Cost: 10 legend
Type: Simple
The Scion touches or locks eyes with her target for
a few seconds and twists his most characteristic
personality trait into a grossly exaggerated form.
The Scion rolls her (Intelligence or Wits)+Medicine
against the target’s Wits+Integrity, if successful the
target goes mad. A person defined by his generosity
starts to give all his possessions away to passing
strangers, a person defined by her skepticism trusts
no one regardless of the evidence presented, a
leader stops listening to any advice and accepts no
dissent and someone defined by her compassion
can't stop herself from trying to right every wrong
and give her all to help every single disenfranchised
person she comes across.
The boon lasts for one day per dot of Legend the
Scion has.
GOD Font of Pestilence
Cost: 20 legend + 1 willpower
Type: Simple
The Scion takes a container and fills it with water,
supplies a disease of her choice to the water and can
then cast this boon upon the water converting it into
a font of pestilence.
When the boon is activated the water becomes fetid
and radiates with dark magic. The font continuously
reaches out to random people in a metropolis sized
35
Affliction
area and attempts to infect them with the disease it
carries in its water.
While in the presence of the font the Scion may
determine how many the it attempts to infect every
day. It can either aim to create small isolated
pockets of disease within a city or it can attempt to
create a full blown epidemic touching every
neighborhood with its disease. She can also direct to
attempt to infect specific persons that the Scion
names but the font cannot attempt to infect the
same person more than once per day. The target of
the font must roll to resist the disease as if she was
exposed to it by normal means.
Should anyone touch the water inside the font they
must also roll to resist infection regardless of what
the transmission vectors of the disease and the roll
has an increased difficulty equal to the Scion's dots
in Legend.
The magic of the font lasts forever but the Scion
may make it dormant when in its presence should
she so wish. Destroying the container also destroys
the magic of the boon. The disease remains in the
water but is no longer affected by the magic of the
font and functions as normal there after.
GOD Wrath of Nergal
Cost: 25 legend + 1 willpower
Type: Simple
This ancient boon was often used in the many wars
the pantheons waged against one another during
antiquity. It was most commonly used around the
area of mesopotamia where many pantheons were
locked in conflict for hundreds of years. Using this
boon in war is to wield starvation and thirst as
weapons to bring the enemies to their knees.
The Scion spends a minute to channel her magic
and then sends a wave of dark magic that affects a
metropolis sized area around her. All food is spoiled
and all water reserves such as rivers and reservoirs
becomes undrinkable and turn fetid and discolored.
She may exclude any food or water reserves in the
area from the effects of the boon if she so wishes.
Meats rot, fruits become infested with worms,
granaries are beset with insects and disease. Water
supplies become unusable and any that would eat of
Affliction

the food or drink the water is exposed to food Cost: 20 legend + 1 willpower
poisoning. Type: Supplemental, Free Combo

The boon lasts for 24 hours and unweaving the
boon with anti magic such as DEMIGOD Divine
Unweaving will allow new food to be grown and
will revert the water back to normal but the any
affected food remains spoilt.
Avatar powers
For each Avatar boon the Scion purchases, she is
permanently locked out from one of Affliction’s
antithetical purviews, Health and Fertility. The
Scion cannot purchase more than two Avatar
powers in the same purview.
AVATAR The Scourge
Cost: None
Type: Passive
All negative effects suffered from diseases such as
damage, dice penalties, DV penalties and so on are
doubled(in conjunction with HERO Curse of
Tlazolteotl damage is quadrupled). When crafting a
supernatural disease with DEMIGOD Loom of
Contagion the Scion may add an additional trait to
the disease.
With this boon the Scion can cast entire cities into
madness, put a hostile army into disarray or turn an
entire skyscraper into the Scion's loyal servants.
Whenever the Scion uses a knack or boon that
attempts to alter the mental state and/or behavior of
a target she may also activate this boon to spread
the effects of her attack to everyone in a wide area.
The Scion determines how far the effect should
reach and may exclude any person she wants to but
the area may not be larger than a metropolis sized
area. Any prerequisites like eye contact, line of sight
or touch can be ignored when comboing with this
boon.
The Scion rolls the activation roll of her power once
which has an increased difficulty of 5. All affected
that have a chance of resisting roll their
Wits+Integrity individually against the Scion's
threshold successes.
This boon cannot be comboed with powers that
require the Scion to interact with the target's soul
like the death boon DEMIGOD Soul Touch or any
possession related power. Nor can any power that
causes a debilitating effect that is physical in nature
be used in conjunction with this boon, such as the
blindness from HERO Strike Blind or the brand
from DEMIGOD Inquisitor's Brand.

AVATAR Harbinger of Pain

Cost: None
Type: Passive

Flesh weakens from the mere presence of the Scion

and her debilitating physical effects and disease take
hold much more easily. Anyone attempting to resist
one of the Scion's debilitating physical effects or
diseases with their Stamina+Fortitude have the
difficulty of the roll increased by one per dot of
Legend that the Scion has.

This includes negative effects levied by boons from

purviews other than Affliction such as GOD
Shadow Theft, HERO Ignite or DEMIGOD Ra's
Judgment.

AVATAR Mass Psychosis

 Animal
Scions who venture into the Animal purview share a special kinship with animals. With this she can call
flocks of beasts to her side, create a permanent bond with a Spirit Animal, channel the primal nature of the
animal world and shape shift into a powerful apex form. Masters of this purview can permanently transform
other people into animals and create new supernatural species, loyal to the Scion.

New Keyword: Spirit Animal HERO Animal Aspect

When a Scion purchases her first boon tagged with
the Spirit Animal keyword, her player must decide
what Spirit Animal the Scion shares a bond with.
The Spirit Animal is a representation of a species,
like Wolf, Lion, Owl or Shark. The player and
storyteller then agrees on what the Spirit Animal's
main attribute is. For example, Stamina for Bears,
Strength for Lions, Perception for Eagles,
Appearance for Peacocks and so forth. But if the
player can argue it, a Spirit Animal may have an
alternative attribute. Maybe the bear spirit that she
bonded with had strength as his attribute or the lion
spirit she bonded with had charisma as his.
Whichever attribute the player and storyteller agree
upon is permanent.
At the Storyteller's discretion the player may take a
supernatural animal, such as a dragon or chimera,
as her Spirit Animal. These Spirit Animals do not
offer any game mechanical benefits over normal
animals.
HERO Animal Communication
Cost: None
Type: Passive
The Scion can understand and be understood with
the greater family of animals that her Spirit Animal
belongs to. So a Scion with Animal(Lion) can speak
to all cat animals, a Scion with Animal(Owl) can
speak to all birds, etc. The Scion speaks her mother
tongue and the animal his. Animals are in general of
limited intelligence and rarely remembers details
that seem unimportant to them.
Cost: 3 legend
Type: Reflexive, Spirit Animal
The Scion channels the essence of her Spirit Animal
and gains bonus dice to the attribute that
corresponds to the Spirit Animal’s attribute. The
Scion rolls (the attribute of her Spirit Animal +
Animal Ken) and adds the successes as bonus dice
to distribute on rolls involving that attribute. The
bonus dice lasts for one scene and if this boon is
activated again any remaining dice from the
previous activation are discarded before the
activation roll.
HERO Run with the Pack
Cost: None
Type: Passive
All animals instinctively view the Scion as a member
of their flock until she proves otherwise. She can
play with wolf cubs, lounge with lions or run
alongside deers and antelopes. Moreover, if the
Scion is attacked and any living animals are nearby
they will try to come to her aid.
When she engages in combat this boon will, once
per scene, summon three units worth of wild
animals as a swarm to fight alongside her. If there
are no animals nearby or if they are unable come to
her aid, no animals are summoned by the boon. If
the Scion removes the obstacles hindering them
from reaching her, like opening their cages, they
will come to her aid as per normal.
Wild Animals
Join Battle: 10
Attack: Acc 12, 12L, Speed 4
Resilience: 4

37
Animal
Growth stats: +3 Acc
HERO Alpha Mien
Cost: None
Type: Passive
The leader of the pack is calm, assertive and
dominant. She gets her will done by with a simple
word or a quiet meaningful look. When the Scion
adopts this mien and succeeds on a social roll she
regains 3 legend.
DEMIGOD Apex Form
Cost: 2 legend per shift
Type: Reflexive, Free Combo, Spirit Animal
The Scion’s body becomes malleable, capable of
shifting and changing shape to a powerful Apex
form that is a hybrid of her Spirit Animal and her
human form. She may also shift into the normal
form of her Spirit Animal.
When changing to the form of her Spirit Animal,
the Scion keeps her mental and social attributes but
inherits the physical attributes of a superior
specimen of her Spirit Animal. She does however
keep her own Health Levels. If her Spirit Animal is
a supernatural creature she takes the form of a
young or a minor version of that animal and cannot
gain epic attributes from this animal form.
She may use any mental or social knacks as well as
any boons or purviews while in this animal form
and she can speak both the language of her Spirit
Animal as well as human tongues.
Moreover she gains the ability to change to an Apex
Form that is an intermediary between her Spirit
Animal and her human form. She walks upright but
her features shift toward the animalistic. The Scion
may grow a tail, gain claws, an animal hybrid face,
fur, scales, sprout wings or whatever features are
associated to her Spirit Animal. Ultimately each
Scion has a unique form and the exact aesthetics are
up to the player.
When purchasing this boon the player picks two
traits from the list below that are always active
when the Scion is in her Apex Form. These traits
are permanent and cannot be changed and should
match the characteristics of her Spirit Animal. This
is not an exhaustive list and the player and
storyteller could agree on other traits. Unless
otherwise specified, all dice to skills gained from
these traits count as bonus dice and adhere to the
normal bonus dice cap.
Animal Magnetism - The Scion gains bonus dice
equal to her dots in Legend to all seduction and
intimidation rolls.
Burrower - The Scion can with ease make tunnels
in the earth and may move underneath the earth
with her normal Move. She leaves rudimentary
tunnels in her path but cannot dig through rocks
without sufficient Epic Strength.
Carapace - Gain her natural bashing and lethal
soak equal to her dots in Legend. Gain bonus dice
to all Fortitude rolls equal to her dots in Legend.
Echolocation - The Scion can perceive her
surroundings through how the sound bounces on
the environment allowing her to “see” even when
blind. Very noisy environments can overwhelm this
sense and complete silence makes her it unusable.
Mongoose Reflexes - Gain +3 extra DV(that does
not count toward the bonus DV cap) and gains
bonus dice to her Join Battle rolls equal to her dots
in Legend.
Natural Weapons - Unarmed attacks and clinches
now do lethal damage and either gains +3 damage
and +3 accuracy(these are weapon bonuses and do
not count toward any dice cap) or a poisonous
attack that delivers a poison with every successful
unarmed attack. The poison has the following stats.
Tolerance: None; Damage: 2L/action; Toxicity:
Scion's Legend; Penalty: −2
Night Hunter - Gains bonus dice to all Stealth rolls
equal to her dots in Legend and may add her
Legend as bonus damage dice when doing damage
with an Unexpected Attack.
On Soaring Wings - The Scion’s apex form has
wings and she can fly at speeds up to her dash
speed. Flying is as tiring as running, even when
hovering in the air.
Scent of Blood - The Scion's sense of smell
becomes highly sensitive like that of dogs or sharks.
The Scion may reroll any Perception roll involving
smell for free and pick the highest of the two

Spirit of the Cheetah - Doubles the Scion’s base
Dash speed, gain bonus dice to all Athletics roll
equal to her dots in Legend.
Wisdom of the Elephant God - Gains bonus dice
to all knowledge based rolls equal to her dots in
Legend, and increases the size of the her legend
pool by her Legend rating(these extra legend points
can refill while in human form but can only be
accessed while in her Apex Form).
Shifting form costs 2 legend and can be done at any
time, even when being attacked. However shifting
form is a conscious act and if she fails to spot a
surprise attack, the attack hits her current form.
The shapeshifting lasts for one scene after which
she reverts to human form or has to pay the
activation cost again.
The Scion can become pregnant with other
members of her Spirit Animal species while in
animal form like she can become pregnant with
humans and other Scions while in human form. The
child will be of the species the Scion was during the
conception. For this purpose Apex Form counts as
being either human or animal and will birth human
offspring when mating with humans and animal
offspring when mating with animals.
DEMIGOD Summon Animals
Cost: 2 legend per unit
Type: Simple
The Scion summons swarms of animals to attack
her enemies. The animals need not be the same as
her Spirit Animal but they need to be nearby
enough to answer the call. Every 2 legend spent
summons one unit of wild animals that add to a
growing swarm of beasts. One unit could be either
dozens of rats, two three large cats or a wild dog.
Larger animals may take up more than one unit, for
example a brown bear may represent two units in
the swarm, an Elephant three and so forth. There is
no mechanical difference to having different animals
in the swarm, they still follow the normal rules.
The Scion controls the swarm with her spoken
words and does not have to take an action to direct
them. They last for one scene after which they
scatter peacefully. Activating Summon Animals
again grows does not create a second swarm but
rather grows the current swarm. Any units gained

from HERO Run with the Pack are added to the

DEMIGOD Leader of the Pack
Cost: 4 legend
Type: Simple, Spirit Animal
The Scion calls upon the blessing of her Spirit
Animal and for it to watch over her and her flock.
The Scion and her allies may reroll all rolls
involving her Spirit Animal's attribute for no cost
and choose the highest of the two results. The effect
lasts for one scene.
DEMIGOD Den Mother
Cost: 3 legend
Type: Simple
Also known as The Lion’s Pride. For one scene the
Scion takes on the same protecting nature of a
mother protecting her cubs.
As long as the Scion fights alongside them, any
swarm under her control gains +1 resilience for the
duration of the boon. The Scion may also as a free
action intervene and take attacks intended for any
of her allies. This effect functions like the guardian
boon HERO Intervene but is free of cost.
DEMIGOD Blessed Hunt
Cost: 5 legend
Type: Simple
The Scion channels the spirit of a top-level predator
like the Wolf, the Bear or the Shark, and hunts her
prey with the same determination and unchallenged
might as they would.
She speaks the name of the creature she is pursuing
and commits herself to the hunt, never resting until
Animal
her prey has been captured. She is allowed to take
quick breaks to drink a hand of water or to eat a
quick bite, but never any extended rest. While this
boon is active the Scion gains her Legend as bonus
dice to all Tracking, Stealth and Join Battle rolls
taken against her prey. The boon lasts until she kills
her prey or halts the hunt for more than a few
minutes.
If she honors the prey with a quick, clean death she
is refunded the cost of this boon.
DEMIGOD Eyes of the Beast
Cost: 5 legend
Type: Simple, Spirit Animal
For one scene the Scion extends her senses to all
her kin around her and becomes aware of every
animal in a metropolis sized area that belongs to the
same greater family that her Spirit Animal belongs
to. So a Scion with Lion as her Spirit Animal
become aware of all cats and one with Owl as her
Spirit Animal becomes aware of all birds.
While the boon is active she may freely see and
listen through any of these animals but can only
perceive the senses of one of them at a time. She
cannot influence their actions other than to make
them briefly turn their head and look at a specific
direction. Switching her perceptions between
creatures is a free action that only takes a brief
moment.
She is not possessing the creature's body and her
soul remains in her own body, rather she just listens
in to their perceptions.
GOD King of the Jungle
Cost: None
Type: Passive, Spirit Animal
The Scion's connection with her Spirit Animal
matures and her natural abilities approach that of
the protean beasts that roamed the Earth before the
titanomachi.
The Scion gains an additional dot in the Epic
Attribute of her Spirit Animal's attribute and gain a
new knack as if they had purchased the dot
normally. This dot can exceed the Epic Attribute's
cap and if a character's Epic Attribute is at eleven
dots out she gains a twelth dot which yields an
additional +3 to the yield of that Epic Attribute as
well as a new knack.
GOD Uplift Species
Cost: 40 legend + 1 dot of willpower
Type: Simple
The Scion blesses a group of a mundane species and
uplifts its form and soul to become a higher beings.
The animal is granted higher thought and becomes
aware of itself and its own thoughts. The Scion can
create creatures like centaurs, clans of humanoid
ravens, talking snakes or an entire people of goat
men.
Once at least one individual creature of the desired
species is within arm's length she may pay the
legend cost and sacrifice one permanent dot of
willpower to activate the boon. Once activated any
creature of the same species that she touches for the
next 24 hours will be permanently transformed.
The transformed animals gain human-like
intelligence, the capacity for speech and the ability
to manipulate tools. The Scion can shape the form
of her new species as she sees fit. She may shrink or
grow the creature, add or change body parts, make
the animal bipedal, give them more humanoid forms
or add humanlike features to the animal like the
human torso on a centaur.
Each member of the new species has base Legend of
3 but older members of the species can gain
additional dots but typically not more than 6. The
species has a defining attribute like that off spirit
animals(strength for bears, appearance for
peacocks, perception for hawks, etc) that all
members tend to have the maximum allowed stats
in. The other attributes vary among the individual
creatures in the species. Some are strong, some are
smart, some are social and so on.
The creatures gain two traits from DEMIGOD
Apex Form that are always active and part of their
physiology. Moreover the species can learn boons
from the Animal purview and one additional

purview that the Scion selects during the species'
creation.
The temperament of the creature varies depending
on what type of creature they arose from and what
temperament the Scion instills in them but they are
always, at least initially, loyal to the Scion and
curious to the world.
GOD Curse of Circe
Cost: 15 legend + 1 willpower
Type: Simple
The Scion transforms another living creature's body
to an animal, forever locking him into a form of her
designs.
She touches her target, pays the cost and rolls
(Intelligence or Wits)+Occult at difficulty 5 and
notes the threshold successes. The target defends
with his Stamina+Fortitude against the threshold
successes of the activation roll. If the Scion
succeeds, the target is transformed into an animal of
her choosing. The target's physical attributes are
replaced with new ones fitting for his new animal
form but he keeps up to two points of his epic
physical attributes and keeps his original Health
Levels. His social and mental attributes remain
unchanged and he can activate any knacks his new
attributes allow for. However, he is unable to
activate any boons while he is an animal.
He is incapable of human speech in his new form
and will not understand the communication of any
members of his new species unless he did so
before(but he will probably learn).
The Scion can at any time revert the transformation
for no cost but it will otherwise last until she dies.
There is no limit to the amount of people she can
have transformed to animals.
Avatar powers
For each Avatar boon the Scion purchases, she is
permanently locked out from one of Animal's
antithetical purviews, Death and Affliction. The
Scion cannot purchase more than two Avatar
powers in the same purview.
41
Animal
AVATAR Protean Understanding
The Scion understands the ancient kernel that
seeded all animals. With the blueprints of life at her
fingertips, there is no form she can't emulate and no
trait she can't reproduce and she may even focus
inward and redesign the makeup of her own being.
By taking a Speed 6 action the Scion may change
her Spirit Animal to any other animal that she
knows off. Changing Spirit Animal also changes its
main attributes and she may also select new traits
for her DEMIGOD Apex Form each time she
changes herself.
Also, her Animal boons that transform the bodies of
others, like GOD Curse of Circe, counts 5s and 6s
on the activation roll as successes.
AVATAR Shepherd of Creation
The Scion gains mastery over all animal life, calling
upon all the animals of the earth and creating new

Animals summoned by her DEMIGOD Summon
Animals are magically enhanced by her presence
and grow in size, strength and ferocity. Wild
Animals summoned by any Animal boon are now

change is permanent and animals remain as nemean

by incorporating traits from other species or by

simply refining it into a superior form. The Scion
becomes the Spirit Animal of this species.

The Scion gains an additional main attribute to her

Spirit Animal and two more traits to her
DEMIGOD Apex Form. All boons that interacts
with the main attribute of her Spirit Animal may
now interact with both of the two attributes. Her
True Form is now the animal form she has evolved
into and she must pay to activate DEMIGOD Apex
Form to transform herself into either Human or
Apex Form.
 Artifice
Engineering has existed since ancient times when humans devised fundamental inventions such as the pulley,
the lever and the wheel. Since then their machines have grown more and more complex by the century,
accumulating into today's super computers and space stations. The artificer embodies these ideals of making
technology work for her and can excel or even reinvent her chosen field. The divine craftsman can also bend
the properties of magical materials such as orichalcum or celestial jade to make items of great power known
as relics.

HERO Mint Condition

Cost: 1 legend per cubic meter

Type: Simple HERO All Systems Nominal

With a pass of the hand, the Scion restores a Cost: 1 legend

mundane item to its original form. Wiping away all
traces of age and reversing its effects, making it
whole again. If any key part of the item has been
stolen or removed, it cannot be restored. At least
part of it must remain on site in order for the
Scion's magic to function. This boon can only
counteract the deterioration of old age and lack of
maintenance of a machine and has no effect against
sabotage or willful destruction.
HERO Fuel of the Gods
Cost: Varies
Type: Simple
The Scion fuel a mundane machine for a day by
simply touching it. Larger machines require more
legend to power.
Type: Simple
The Scion can take one glance at a machine and
determine whether it is functioning within its
intended parameters or not. If the machine is not in
operation the Scion gets a sense if it will function
correctly when turned on. If there's something
wrong with the machine the Scion will get an
immediate sense to this effect, but will not know
what the actual problem is without taking a closer
look but will gain bonus dice equal to her dots in
Legend when rolling to find the problem.
DEMIGOD Blessed Forge
Cost: 5 legend per hour
Type: Supplemental
When taking any craft action the Scion hands move
with divine speed and precision, her tools become

43
Artifice
blessed and her process is without fault. Her tools
and workshop are filled with magic and become
many times more effective. Any tools out of her
grasp comes to life to do whatever minor work they
can on their own to aid the Scion. For each 5 legend
spent the Scion performs ten hours of work in one
hour of real time.
DEMIGOD Reverse Engineering
Cost: Varies
Type: Craft Action
The Scion uses unseen forces to pick apart a
machine or a relic into its base components. In the
case of machines her magic allows her to see into
the machines and see how it functions or how it is
damaged and then puts it back together. In the case
of relics she may harvest them for magical materials
but this process destroys the relic.
When dismantling a machine the Scion must touch
the machine and then pay 2 legend per cubic meters
of space the machine takes up. Once activated, the
machine comes apart into its base components in
front of the Scion's eyes. Screws unscrew
themselves from their sockets, gears come apart
from each other, rivets are popped out from their
holes and the sections of the fuselage comes apart.
All the individual parts that make up the machine
hovers in the air for the Scion to inspect all while
the machine continuous to function as normal with
the Scion's magic still connecting all the individual
pieces together. Gears exert forces upon each even
though they are not touching and electrical cables
still send signals to their components even if the
cable are unplugged and so on. The Scion may
physically interact with these parts and repair any
damaged ones or swap them out for better
components. Once the Scion so wishes or when she
stops paying attention to the machine it reassembles
back to its intended functional state.
When attempting to harvest material from a Relic
the Scion pays 2 legend per dot the relic has as she
begins the extraction process. She gains one batch
of the same type of material with 1 grade of purity
per 5 successes scored on a (Dexterity or
Intelligence)+Craft roll but no more than what was
originally used to create the relic. This process takes
as many hours as it took days to create a relic of the
same rank. For example a rank 5 relic normally
takes 15 days to create and therefore 15 hours to
dismantle using this boon. Any remaning magical
material as well as the relic itself is rendered useless
after being dismantled.
DEMIGOD Runes of Warding
Cost: 10 legend
Type: Craft Action
This boon allows the Scion to use magical materials
to craft powerful protective runes that ward a large
area such as a room, a building or a compound from
intrusions and give special protection from magic
like scrying, far sight, possession and other magical
forces that work at a distance. For detailed rules on
Runes of Warding see the Crafting chapter.
DEMIGOD On the Shoulders of Giants
Cost: None
Type: Passive
The accumulated scientific knowledge of mankind is
an endeavor unique to the human race. Satisfied
with their magic, the gods never attempted to bend
the rules of the middle world to their will like the
humans have over the past centuries. Many of them
are surprised by the rapidly growing power of
technology over the last few centuries and most of
the gods are blindsided by the swift progress made
during the last five decades. Younger Scions have
found a way to tap into this previously under
utilized power of modern technology with the help
of this boon.
The Scion can think faster, solve more complex
problems and make longer intuitive leaps when
working on hard scientific problems. As such, she is
considered to excel within and to be furthering her
chosen field of research at super human speed
making it hard for even the most brilliant scientists
to keep up. Dots in Epic Intelligence makes this
divide even more apparent.
With this boon the Scion may craft high-tech
Gadgets which function like relics, require no
magical materials but cannot have more dots than

half the Scion’s dots in Science. Instead of using a
magical material gadgets uses high tech solutions
like lasers, cutting edge material science, nano
technology, cybernetics, fusion power, next-
generation batteries, genetic modification and
similar emerging technologies.
See the section on Gadgets in the Crafting chapter
for the full rules on how to craft Gadgets.
DEMIGOD Mind-Machine Interface
Cost: 3 legend
Type: Simple
The Scion can for one scene use her mind to
interact with any machine within 10 meters per dot
of Legend that she has. She interacts with the
machine in the same way that a normal user could
do if she was physically present in front of the
machine like pulling on levers, typing on a keyboard
or perceiving what is being shown on displays or
screens. Once activated the Scion senses all
machines within the area of effect and need not
have them in their line of sight to interact with
them.
Using a machine in this fashion is considered a
Miscellaneous Action and if multiple Scions with
this power try to control the same machine the
winner of a contested (Intelligence or Wits)+Craft
roll gains control of it.
DEMIGOD Resource Extraction
Cost: 1 legend per ton
Type: Simple
The Scion extracts unprocessed resources from her
environment be they mundane resources like helium
gas, iron ore or crude oil or magical resources like
orichalcum ore or dawn stones.
She names the type of resource she wishes to
extracts and activates the boon. She then draws 1
ton of that resource per legend spent from the
environment around her starting with what
materials are the closest to her. The boon can
extract resources from up to 100 meters per dot of
Legend she has.
45
Artifice
The resource is drawn out of the atmosphere, the
ocean or the earth by her magic and is placed either
on the ground in front of her or in any containers
that she has designated. Oil seeps up from the
ground and crawls up into their barrels, ore is
pulled out from the mountain as powder and small
rocks, gasses form clouds and pump themselves into
pressure containers.
This boon cannot harvest living animals or other
sentient beings like humans or titan spawn but it
can harvest plants and trees. The extraction process
takes anywhere between five minutes and one hour
depending on how accessible the resources are.
GOD Supercharge
Cost: 3 legend per dot + 1 willpower
Type: Simple
The Scion touches a relic, gadget or a mundane item
and supercharges it. The Scion spends a few
moments to a minute to inspect the item and gains
an understanding of its composition and purpose. If
it is a relic, she gains an understanding of all the
different enhancements that were used to construct
the relic.
The Scion grants the item dots of enhancements as
if it was a relic and pays 3 legend per dot that she
grants the item. The Scion cannot grant more dots
with this boon than she herself has dots in Craft.
These dots can be spent on the Excellence
enhancement that grants the item a bonus dice per
dot of the enhancement when using it for its main
purpose(a sword is for fighting, a pen is for writing,
a guitar for playing music, etc).
Relics and gadgets also has the option to spend the
dots to supercharge enhancements that already exist
in the relic or gadget. These must be enhancements
that can scale and benefit from additional dots like
Lethal, Resurgent Domain or Flow of Magic. Other
than the Excellence enhancement, this boon cannot
add new enhancements to an existing relic or
gadget.
An item can only benefit from this boon once and
the Scion must cancel her first application in order
to apply a new one. The effects of this boon lasts for
24 hours.

Type: Simple
When a butterfly flaps its wings in the Amazon,
there’s a tornado in Texas. This boon allows the
Scion to glimpse the chaotic workings of the
universe and understand what she needs to do to tilt
the odds in her favor.
The Scion names a well defined target event like
"This red car crashes", "Leonardo fails his speech",
"Ibrahim wins his next MMA fight" and then
Creation whispers back to her the one initial action
needed to start a chain of events that will nudge the
target event to come true. The initial action this
boon requires the Scion to perform can be as
mundane as picking a flower or as elaborate as
making sure a person is thinking about the right
thing at the right time. Once this initial action is
performed, it can at earliest affect other actions
after one scene has passed.
As soon as the circumstances align to make the
target event come true, all skill rolls either gain or
lose dice equal to the Scion's dots in Legend such
that the target event comes true. Regardless if it
does or doesn't come true during that scene, the
magic fades thereafter.
DEMIGOD Bacchanalia
Cost: 5 legend
Type: Social Action
The Scion puts on any form of performance such as
singing, playing an instrument, dancing or reciting
poetry. As she is performing, a hedonistic revelry
breaks out with all affected single-mindedly trying
to fulfill their desires.
The Scion rolls (Charisma or Intelligence)+Craft to
activate the power and all that can perceive her
performance must beat her roll with their own
Wits+Integrity or be cast into the revelry. Any
affected lose access to their Virtues for the duration
of the boon and helplessly indulge in their most base
desires. Drink, food, sex, drugs or whatever that
they may be. New people who step into the party
must roll Wits+Integrity against the Scion's
activation roll as long as she is still present and
performs every so often.

If an affected person is dragged out from the party
the effect of the boon ends, but depending on the
circumstances the person might find himself being

transforms it into a random object of the same size.
Each casting of the boon on the same object during
the same scene halves the legend cost(minimum 1).
The object transformed into could be complex
objects with many moving parts like computers or
guns or it could transform the object to some raw
and unprocessed form of matter such as water,
uranium ore or helium gas but can never create
living objects. It could also grow body parts, eyes,
tentacles, holes and may or may not grow seams to
receive a soul from Creation. The Scion has one
turn to recast this boon after having created a living
being before it receives a soul whereafter it cannot
be affected by this boon.
If the object is transformed into a gas or water
recasting this boon will gather up the matter and
transmute it it is still close to the Scion.
DEMIGOD The Rules Don't Apply
Cost: 3 legend
Type: Simple
The Scion targets a character and rolls
(Manipulation or Intelligence)+Presence against the
target's Wits+Integrity. If she is successful the
target becomes completely uninterested in enforcing
or following any laws.
DEMIGOD Touch of Tiamat
Cost: 7 legend + 1 willpower
Type: Simple
The Scion reaches into the unformed overworld and
plucks out a piece of particularly active chaos and
holds it in her hand where it is be contained until
Chaos
used or one scene has passed. She can use it on
living beings to create a supernatural disease known
as the Touch of Tiamat that mutates their bodies
and consumes their magic.
She must touch her target to inject the chaos into
their bodies and must land an unarmed melee attack
if the target is unwilling. Once the chaotic matter
touches the body of the target the Scion rolls (Wits
or Intelligence)+Occult against the target's
Stamina+Fortitude. If she succeeds the primordial
chaos sinks into the target's body and infects him
and if she fails she keeps it to try again. This
infection is resolved as a disease with an Infectivity
equal to the Scion's Legend rating, a Severity equal
to three times the Scion's Legend rating, a duration
of one week. Its only Transmission Vector is
through Direct Contact with the infected's body.
The Touch of Tiamat feasts on the target's magic
and for every point of damage taken by the disease
the target's Legend pool shrinks with 1
point(mortals instead take double damage). The
infection uses the legend to create a growth on his
body such as a new eye, an extra limb, a tentacle,
dozens of small holes on his back, grass extruding
from his mouth instead of saliva or any other
possible form his body could take. As the disease
progresses madness sets in as the target's mind
becomes warped by the chaotic energies surging
through his body.
If the disease fills all of his health levels with
damage the character is for all intents and purposes
dead as the mutations have overtaken his body and
mind. What is left of him has been turned into a
mutated being of raw chaotic forces.
Normal antimagic like DEMIGOD Divine
Unweaving has no effect on supernatural diseases
but disease fighting powers like HERO Remedy or
DEMIGOD Pool of Purifying Waters can rid the
target of the disease. Any mutated tissue will
typically fall off or recede back to the target's
normal form given time once cured but the scars
will remain.
GOD Ex Nihilum
Cost: 10 legend
Type: Simple
The Scion calls upon the power of Tiamat to create
matter Ex Nihilum — from nothing. The Scion’s
player determines the difficulty of the boon from the
table below and rolls (Intelligence or Wits)+Occult
against it. The Scion must make at least one
constraint upon what is being creates(e.g. solid,
liquid, gas, breathable, conductive, living, cold,
burning, etc) but have no control other than that
what is being created. Even seemingly impossible
combinations can be generated such as living gas or
burning cold. This boon cannot be used to create
esoteric objects like Souls of Destiny nor can it
create magical materials.
Once the process is started matter will begin to
erupt from nothing and keep generating over the
course of a few minutes. The Scion has limited
control in how much matter will be generated or
how fast it will come into being but as a rule of
thumb 10 cubic meters per dot of Legend that she
has. Sometimes more, sometimes less.
The matter that is created is uniform. If the Scion
creates matter that is "gaseous" and "flammable" and
the boon starts producing hydrogen it will produce
only hydrogen for this activation. What gas actually
comes forth is random and needn't follow the
middle world's laws of nature, it only needs to
adhere to the constraints put upon it by the Scion.
Difficulty Target
+10 Add one constraint to the
creation(e.g. Solid, liquid, gas,
breathable, conductive, cold,
burning, etc)
Attempting to create living
+20
matter
After one scene has passed the matter succumbs to
the stabilizing force of the middle world and any
supernatural properties will vanish but the rest of
the matter still remains as a permanent addition to
the Creation. For example, living gas will stabilize
into being just gas, it will no longer be alive while a
rock that both burns and freezes will just be a warm

or cold rock that will slowly return to temperature
of the environment, etc. If life is created, Creation
will provide it with a new soul and it functions as a
titanspawn at Legend 2. If the life is snuffed out at
the end of the boon's duration, the soul becomes a
ghost.
If the power is cast in the Overworld all that was
brought forth remains as it was created.
GOD Wind of Change
Cost: 20 legend + 1 willpower
Type: Simple
Also known as Sic Semper Tyrannis. Laws, rules
and social norms only serve to hold greatness back.
The Scion emancipates the mind of everyone
around her, spreading the spirit of true freedom.
The Scion pays the cost and rolls (Manipulation or
Intelligence)+Presence and notes the result.
Everyone in a metropolis sized area is affected by
the boon and will after a few minutes forgo the rules
and social norms that they know and create new
ones either on their own or with their peers.
Affected characters have their Virtues temporarily
replaced with new Virtues. The new Virtues are
selected randomly from all Virtues excluding his old
Virtues, i.e. if he originally had Honor, his new set
of Virtues cannot have Honor among them.
Likewise, the rating of these Virtues are selected
randomly.
It is important to note that the affected do not
become insane. Their faculties remain unaffected
but their goals and motivations have changed.
As social animals, people still form groups around
charismatic leaders, but the norms of these groups
are in some way different from society at large.
Sometimes radically so. Attempting to adress
current injustices is the most common effect of this
boon but it is not the only one. The affected will
keep trying new ways of organizing their lives in
order to see for themselves what works and what
doesn't. This process in and off itself is enough to
antagonize most democratic governments and
certainly all autocratic ones.
One borough might decide to reject the authority of
the police and decide to police themselves with their
51
Chaos
own rule while another neighborhood is content
with painting their houses in a new color every
sunday where another street decides to settle all
monetary feuds with an intricate system of
cockfighting, creating a surge in demand for strong
and fierce roosters.
At the start of the revolution, everyone affected is
highly susceptible to the Scion's suggestions and she
can easily steer a neighborhood or perhaps an entire
borough towards a specific goal like, "Overthrow
the government", "Liberate all the animals at the
city zoo" or "Praise Zeus every day".
The effects last for one day per dot she has in
Legend. After the effects fade, the rules and norms
that have been created now lives and dies like
normal social and cultural expressions. New
governments have to consolidate their power, new
figures of speech sinks or swims on their own and
new cultural expressions tend to live on in at least
some small clique unless they are wholly impractical
or self defeating. People who burn all their
possessions at the start of each month is unlikely to
see a whole lot of new followers, but a newly
founded group of vigilantes might remain popular.
The Scion herself is unaffected by the boon and so
is all she chooses to exclude.
GOD Into the Abyss
Cost: 7 legend + 1 willpower
Type: Simple
The Scion has learned to harness the annihilating
power of the Void and can destroy anything that
she touches. This power does not break things
apart, or even vaporize them but it removes them
from existence as if they were thrown into
Ginnungagap itself. In their place remains only a
vacuum that nature rushes to fill with whatever is
around it.
This boon has two uses. Either the Scion attempts
to erase an inanimate object from the universe or
she attacks another being by forming a black
abyssal void in her hand and pushing it into her foe.
In the first case the Scion rolls (Intelligence or
Wits)+Occult with a difficulty depending on what
she’s trying to erase. There’s no upper limit to the
size of an object that Scion can use this power on,

In the second case the Scion attempts an unarmed
melee attack and pays the cost before she rolls to
attack. Wherever the attack hits it leaves behind a
gaping hole of flesh and bone as the tissue has been
erased from Creation. As such, this attack always
leave disfiguring wounds and may cause permanent
injuries such as amputations.

Avatar powers
For each Avatar boon the Scion purchases, she is
permanently locked out from one of Chaos's
antithetical purviews, Order and Fate. The Scion
cannot purchase more than two Avatar powers in
the same purview.
AVATAR Infinite Potential
The Scion’s mastery of chaos is unparalleled and
she can harness the raw creative power of the
Overworld itself. For one additional willpower
defined in HERO Eye of the Storm her HERO
Eye of the Storm activates for free and whenever
she regains Legend while in the chaos, she regains
double the normal amount.

Moreover, DEMIGOD The Rules Don't Apply,

AVATAR Shapeless Void
The Scion’s very essence has intermingled with the
unformed Overworld, changing her forever. She
can for 20 legend become without shape or size for
one scene, lingering as a thought inside a person’s
mind or in the redness of the wall. She can move
around but she cannot otherwise interact with the
physical world. E.g. She can jump from mind to
mind as a thought or move from the wall to the
ceiling as its redness, shifting the color around her.
 Chaos

As she has no physical form, she is impervious to

damage but can also not engage in combat herself.
She can however expend legend and activate spells

Moreover, her DEMIGOD Sabot can now also be

automatic successes when attempting to remove
inanimate objects from Creation and doubles the

 Darkness
Darkness has domain over shadows, darkness and the deprivation of the senses. A master of the Darkness
may step between the shadows, strike her enemies blind, attack their shadows and access a great void known
as the Oubliette.

HERO Strike Blind Wits+Integrity. If successful the victim is stunned

Cost: 2 legend
Type: Reflexive
The Scion focuses dark energies into her attack,
blinding her victim blow by blow.
Strike Blind is activated when making an attack and
if the attack connects and does at least 1 point of
damage the target suffers a −2 dice penalty to all
sight based actions and −1 to all DVs for the
remainder of the scene. If the Scion stacks the effect
of this boon on a single target as many times as the
target has dots in Perception the target becomes
blind. This is not a caul of darkness clouding the
enemies vision but this is true blindness and effects
such as HERO Night Eyes cannot see through it,
but abilities that allow the Scion to navigate his
environments without sight does help. The effects
lasts for one scene.
for three ticks and loses 1 willpower plus an
additional willpower for every 5 threshold
successes.
HERO Concealing Darkness
Cost: 3 legend
Type: Simple
The Scion darkens the area around her, intensifying
shadows and makes them wrap around and conceal
her. As long as she is not hit by undiminished
sunlight(mirrored light is too much, but light
reflected off walls is no problem) she can activate
this boon and gain bonus dice to her stealth rolls
equal to her dots of Legend rating. The boon lasts
for one scene.
DEMIGOD Shadow Step

HERO Night Eyes Cost: 1 legend

The Scion may attack another persons shadow by
cutting into which manifests as thin and deep cuts
into his flesh. This attack has Acc 0, Dmg 0L and
Range 50 and has the Piercing property. This attack
counts as a projectile attack. The attack roll is made
with (Dexterity or Perception)+Marksmanship and
damage is rolled with Perception.
The target must have a shadow that is visible by the
Scion in order to attack it. Defending against
someone attacking your shadow is hard, the target's
DVs are reduced by half the attacker's Legend
rating when defending against this attack. However,
should the target not understand who is attacking
him or how, the attack counts as an unexpected
attack.
DEMIGOD Garden of Shadows
Cost: 8 legend
Type: Simple
The Scion calls upon the soothing spirit of the night,
and makes flowers of solid darkness bloom in the
area around her, lulling everyone nearby to sleep.
This boon can only be cast during night time or
where no sun light can reach. After the cost is paid
the Scion rolls (Charisma or Manipulation)+Occult
and notes the result. The Garden extends 10 meters
per dot of Legend the Scion has. Everyone in the
area and anyone that later enters must succeed on a
Stamina+Fortitude against the Scion's Successes or
immediately fall asleep.
All affected fall into a deep sleep and lose dice to
any Perception equal to the Scion's Legend rating
while asleep in addition to the normal penalties.
Being attacked while asleep breaks the effect but
the first attack counts as an Unexpected Attack.
The Scion herself is excluded from the effect and so
is any she chooses to shield at time of activation and
she can rouse anyone else with a simple touch.
DEMIGOD Obtenebrate
Cost: 8 legend
Type: Simple
The Scion grabs the light around her and tears it
out of the air, creating a dome of magical darkness
55
Darkness
with a radius of 5 meters per successes scored on a
(Strength or Intelligence)+Occult roll. Direct
sunlight cannot penetrate the sphere nor can any
other sources of mundane light illuminate inside the
sphere. Candles burn but give off no light,
flashlights seem to not function and so on. Effects
that grant night vision such as HERO Night Eyes
are ineffectual against the magical darkness
conjured by this boon and any who enter it are
effectively blinded.
The Scion herself sees everything in her own dome
and is unimpeded by the darkness and the sphere
lasts for one scene. She may only have one sphere of
darkness summoned from this boon at any one time.
DEMIGOD Living Shadow
Cost: 7 Legend
Type: Simple
The Scion can project her soul into her shadow,
making it rise into the world as a being of solid
darkness. With it, she can perform any action she
normally could but her voice is but a faint whisper.
She must focus completely on acting through her
own shadow and is only faintly aware what is going
on around her real body, suffering an increase in the
difficulty of all Perception rolls by 5 when using the
senses of her real body.
The Shadow is tethered to her own body and
cannot wander further than 100 meters per dot of
Legend the Scion has. The Shadow has a separate
health pool equal in size of the Scion's but it suffers
no Wound Penalties. If the Shadow's damage
reaches her Incapacitated health level, it disperses
and the Scion no longer has a shadow for the next
24 hours. The shadow can use any boons and
knacks that the Scion has and pays for their cost
with the Scion’s legend and willpower pools.
DEMIGOD In the Dark of the Night
Cost: None
Type: Passive
As long as the Scion is not touched by sun light she
may reroll any Larceny roll for free and choose the
highest of the two results.
Darkness
GOD Oubliette
Cost: 10 legend + 1 willpower
Type: Reflexive
The Oubliette is a forgotten null zone between the
Middleworld, Underworld and Overworld that only
gods of Darkness seem to have access to. The Scion
can place items or throw people into Oubliette
where they will linger forever or until someone else
release them.
When the Scion is rolling for control of a clinch she
may activate this boon and if the roll is successful
she throws her enemy into the Oubliette. When
thrown into the Oubliette the victim finds himself
floating in a smothering blackness. It stifles their
hearing and numbs their flesh. HERO Night Eyes
or supernatural means of illumination will allow her
to see but unless she is next to something or
someone placed into the Oubliette there is nothing
to see but endless emptiness. Activating this power
again allows the God to retrieve whoever or
whatever she put there and while inside she can
instantly travel to what ever items or people she put
in there.
The Scion can let herself into the Oubliette as long
as she is free move(not tied down or clinched). She
may return return from the spot she entered for no
additional cost.
If a Scion wishes to retrieve something that
someone else put in the Oubliette she needs first
have the True Name of the thing or person she is
seeking and then she needs to succeed on a
Perception+Awareness roll with a difficulty equal to
three times the Legend of the god that hid the item.
GOD From the Abyss
Cost: 3 legend per unit
Type: Simple
Tapping the primal dark energies of the Oubliette,
the Scion can call forth tentacles of solid darkness.
It doesn't matter if it is day or night, if she is
walking in the shadows or standing in the light, the
dark of the Oubliette is always at her beck and call.
Around the Scion, tentacles of solidified darkness
emerge from ground, the walls, the ceiling or the
surface of any large pool of water. They obey the
Scion's every thought and can boost her over gates,
carry her up walls, wreck her surroundings as well
as fight her enemies. Activating this boon creates a
swarm of primal darkness with one unit per 3
legend she spends. She can grow the swarm later
with further activations of this boon but cannot
control more than one swarm of Primal Darkness at
a time.
The tentacles are stationary but can dive and
reemerge in another spot should they need to. They
can also press through the barrier between worlds
and extend even further, giving them deceptively
long reach. When fighting they crush their enemies
under their weight or coil around them, squeezing
the life out of them. Victims of these tentacles have
their skin and items blotched in burn-like wounds
caused by the solid darkness.

GOD Shadow Theft
Cost: 15 legend + 1 willpower
Type: Simple
The Scion can steal the shadow of any being that
casts it. The shadow's owner may be inanimate or a
living creature, but when the Scion steals its
shadow she gains great power over its physical
form.
In order to attempt to steal a shadow, she must first
touch it and may then pay the cost and roll
(Dexterity or Intelligence)+Larceny. If the owner is
a living creature it defends with its
Stamina+Fortitude while inanimate objects have a
difficulty depending on its size. Once stolen, the
victim no longer casts any shadow.

While carrying a stolen shadow, the Scion keeps it
tucked inside her own shadow and there are no
outward signs that she is carrying it. She can cast
any Darkness boon on the Stolen Shadow and the
magic will affect the shadow's owner instead. She
may also use DEMIGOD Shadow Step to travel to
shadow's owner as long as the shadow is large
enough to cover the Scion's body.
However, when dealing damage with powers like
DEMIGOD Umbral Razor the attack always
count as an Unexpected Attack. However, the
shadow recoils at the damage and the Scion must
succeed on another contested roll like when
activating the boon or she will lose her grip on the
shadow which then returns to its owner.
The Scion can hold on to a number of shadows
equal her dots of Legend and she can hold on to
them forever but they will be released if she dies.
AVATAR Night Terror
When dealing damage with a Darkness boon such
as DEMIGOD Umbral Razor or GOD From the
Abyss 5s and 6s count as successes on the damage
roll. Her HERO Strike Blind incurs double the
normal penalties(-4 dice and -2 DV) per
application. Finally, the Scion need not focus to
direct her DEMIGOD Shadow Clone but can act
freely and fight along side it or perform other
actions all together.
AVATAR Well of Darkness
The Scion's HERO Night Eyes can now see
through magical darkness. The victim's of the
Scion's HERO Afraid of the Dark loses additional
willpower for every 3 threshold successes instead of
every 5. Her DEMIGOD Obtenebrate will for one
additional willpower cover a metropolis sized area.
Whenever the Scion is inside the Oubliette she may
commune with the primordial darkness to regain 1
legend per tick spent there.

For each Avatar boon the Scion purchases, she is

The Death purview has domain over souls, the dead, the underworld and the transition between the life and
the death. A master of Death can see, speak to and interact with ghosts. She can raise corpses to do her
bidding in the physical realm as well as grab and move disembodied souls against their will, potentially
placing them in other bodies or locking them inside inanimate objects. A God of death can open portals to
the underworld, feast on the necrotic energies of the dying and even command the dead to live again.

poison killed the victim or what part of his aging

HERO Psychopomp
Cost: 1 legend
Type: Simple
The Scion touches a dying person or a ghost and
guides his soul to the afterlife. A person is dying if
he either is incapacitated with his health levels filled
up with lethal or aggravated damage or has a
terminal illness that significantly shortens his life.
She touches the target person and senses if he is
willing to pass on or not. If he is willing his soul is

pleases. For each activation of Unquiet Corpse the
Scion can wake as many zombies as there are dead
bodies nearby. The Scion needn't have dead bodies
on the ground right next to her, rather this power
will wake bodies lying in the ground, have skeletons
crawl up from their graves and can even reanimate
dead animals should the Scion so wish. If these
bodies are very far away, the Storyteller may rule
that it takes them a turn or two approach the Scion.
Reactivating this power as a simple action will add
units to an existing swarm rather than creating a
new one. Commanding the swarm is a free action

Type: Reflexive
The Scion revels in carnage and can suck the life
force out her enemies, healing herself while her
target withers and dies. When making a melee
attack the Scion can activate Life Stealing Strike
and should the attack hit it will heal the Scion one
health level for every damage done to the target, but
no more than she has dots in Legend.
DEMIGOD Soul Touch
Cost: 5 legend
Type: Passive, Simple
When purchasing this boon the Scion’s soul
becomes irreversibly tethered to the Underworld as
much as it is to the Middleworld and she can from
now on touch and in all ways physically interact
with ghosts, including attacking or even
vanquishing their souls permanently. Likewise, as
she now lives in both worlds, ghosts can now
always affect the Scion physically and could even
attack her. This effect is permanent and has no
activation cost.
The Scion’s player may also activate Soul Touch to
pluck a soul from a body, an object or a
dematerialized ghost. In the case of material bodies
a soul may only be plucked from targets that are
dying(as specified in the mechanics of HERO
Psychopomp) or possessed and in the latter case
the Scion may only pluck out the invading soul. To
grab a soul the Scion must touch the target – or if it
is unwilling land an unarmed attack – and may then
spend the 5 legend and roll (Wits or
Intelligence)+Occult versus the targets
Wits+Integrity.
Should she succeed the soul collapses to its core

this soul into whomever or whatever she pleases or
she may simply let it go and it will become a

living body she must win an opposed (Wits or
Intelligence)+Occult vs Wits+Integrity if the target
is an unwilling recipient. Putting the soul of a
recently departed back into the its original body
creates a hungry ghost, the connection to the soul
has been severed and cannot be mended so easily.
The Scion may hold on to a soul for a number of
turns equal to her Intelligence before she loses her
grip on it.
DEMIGOD Spectral Leash

This boon gives the Scion domain over ghosts as she

ghosts are typically friendly toward the Scion unless
they have reasons not to be. Once summoned the
Scion can talk with them, ask them for favors or
interact with them as she would with any other
ghost.
The Scion can either attempt to summon a specific
ghost by speaking his full name and rolling
(Charisma or Intelligence)+Occult against the
ghosts Wits+Integrity(if unwilling). If the Scion
succeeds the ghost is instantly summoned to the
Scion from wherever he was residing.
If not looking for a specific ghost, the Scion can also
summon any nearby ghosts to either congregate at
her or to fight for her. If summoned as a swarm for
combat, the Scion summons one unit per 2 legend
spent with stats detailed below. She may reactivate
this boon to reinforce the ranks of her swarm as a
simple action. For more information see the swarms
section.
Ghost Warrior
Join Battle: 10
Attack: Acc 12 Dmg 12L Speed 5
Resilience: 6
Bonus per unit: +3 Acc
DEMIGOD Siphon Ichor
Death
Cost: 1 legend
Type: Reflexive
The Scion's master of life forces is such that she can
transfer Ichor to herself by drawing it from a
supernatural enemy. When making a melee attack,
the Scion can activate Siphon Ichor for 1 legend.
The Scion's rolls for damage as normal but target
takes only half the rolled damage(round up). The
Scion rolls her (Wits or Intelligence)+Damage
Done against the target's Stamina+Fortitude. For
every threshold success the Scion steals 1 legend
point from the target to herself but no more than
twice her Legend in one attack. Should the Scion
gorge herself on Ichor to such an extent that she
exceeds the limits of her legend pool the additional
legend are placed in a temporary pool that is lost
after the end of the scene.
DEMIGOD Gentle Passing
Cost: 3 legend
Type: Reflexive
No matter how peaceful a death may look in the
material world, it is a violent and ugly event on the
level of the soul . Tartarus pulls on the soul of the
dead and they are torn at the seams, ripped from its
body with a violent force. A Scion can ease this
transition if she is present when the soul departs the
body. She touches the dying person or performs
rites of passing. Doing this removes the permanent
willpower reduction(normally −5). However, this
power does not remove any emotional trauma.
DEMIGOD Haunted Mists
Cost: 6 legend
Type: Simple
The Scion summons a billowing mist that lays thick
in a large area around her and within the mist
ghosts walks among men.
In an area with a radius of the Scion’s Legend x 5
meters all ghosts and spirits are forced to
materialize. Further all ghosts and spirits that enter
the area after the boon is activated is also
materialized and jailed. If they try to leave they are
stopped at the border by a magical barrier.
DEMIGOD Evanesce
Cost: 3 legend/min + 1 willpower
Type: Simple
The Scion dematerializes and can for a brief
moment walk in the immaterial realm like the
ghosts. If she does not have DEMIGOD Soul
Touch she can physically interact with ghosts
during this time. She cannot interact with any part
of the physical realm nor can she possess any
objects like ghosts can. Her move and Dash are
halved but she can move through solid objects and
float unhindered through the air.
The willpower cost must be paid every time she
transitions from being material to being
dematerialized but once she is dematerialized she
may extend the duration with 3 legend per minute
as she sees fit.
While the boon is active she may reveal herself as a
translucent image and may speak with any
materialized character doing so but is still
dematerialized for the time. In order to interact with
the material realm she must cancel the effect which
she may do at any time.
Materializing next to or behind an enemy that
cannot perceive counts as an Unexpected Attack.
Characters with DEMIGOD Soul Touch can
interact with the dematerialized Scion as if she was
materialized(and vice versa). This boon is not
Reflexive and dematerializing cannot be used to
defend against an attack toward the Scion even if
done on the same tick as the attack happens.
GOD Open Underworld Portal
Cost: 10 legend
Type: Simple
When a Scion learns this Boon, she earns a set of
keys to the realm of the dead. Thereafter, whenever
she uses the Boon, he opens a portal to a safe tract
of the Underworld that has been staked out by her
pantheon. If the God has a special patch of the
underworld stakes out for herself the portal may
open directly there.
Anyone can pass through the portal but it is only
open for a minute. Any mortal that enter the
Underworld immediately dies and their bodies fall

lifeless to the ground while their spirits become
ghosts. The portal is one way only.
GOD Strike Dead / Deny Death
Cost: 12 legend + 1 willpower
Type: Simple
The Scion can command a lesser being to die or, if
they are already dead, to live again.
Striking a target dead requires the target to have
less than Legend 9 and the Scion to either lock eyes
with the target or to touch him. The Scion rolls
(Wits or Intelligence)+Occult at a difficulty of 8
against the target’s Wits+Integrity. If the roll
succeeds the Scion locks eyes with the victim and
rips the soul out of the his body.
She can give life back to a target of any Legend
rating. She must have both the target’s soul and a
vacant body in her presence(it need not be the
target’s original body). It is recommended that the
body is well preserved but the magic will still work
as long as the body is in one piece, however a
decayed body brings with it other complications.
The Scion rolls (Wits or Intelligence)+Occult at a
difficulty of twice the target’s Legend. If the body is
not the target’s original body the difficulty increases
with 5. The Storyteller may also incur a penalty for
decayed bodies ranging from 1-10. If the target's
death was eased by the DEMIGOD Gentle
Passing boon the difficulty is reduced by 10.
If the roll is successful the soul is knitted back into
the body and it lives again. However, if the body is
in decay or damaged the resurrected might need
immediate medical aid of the mundane or, for more
severe wounds, the magical kind. If the body is
decomposed the Storyteller may rule that the
resurrected loses permanent dots of appearance or
may even change to negative appearance.
GOD Soul Leeching Technique
Cost: 6 legend
Type: Reflexive
The Scion’s mastery over life and death has risen to
such levels that she can take parts of her enemies
soul and consume them for her own purposes.
When making a melee attack, the Scion can activate
61
Death
Soul Leeching Technique for 6 legend and should
the attack hit(it need not do damage) the Scion rolls
(Wits or Intelligence)+Occult against the targets
Wits+Integrity and she transfers one point of
willpower plus an additional point for every three
threshold successes scored on the opposed roll and
she may not transfer more willpower than half her
Legend in one strike.
Should the Scion gorge herself on souls to such an
extent that she exceeds the limits of her willpower
pool the additional willpower are placed in a
temporary pool that is lost after the end of the
scene.
Avatar powers
For each Avatar boon the Scion purchases, she
becomes permanently locked out from one of
Death's antithetical purviews, Health and Fertility.
The Scion cannot purchase more than two Avatar
powers in the same purview.
AVATAR The Grim Reaper
The Scion is a God of Dying and have achieved
mastery of that violent moment when a soul is torn
from its body.
She can gather the discharge of necrotic energy that
occurs when a living being dies. For every swarm
unit that dies within a 100 meters she regains 1
point of legend and for every characters that dies in
the same area she regains half his dots in Legend as
points of legend(rounded up).
Her DEMIGOD Gentle Passing now has no cost
to activate. Finally, her GOD Strike Dead / Deny
Death now has no cost when used to kill mortals
and she may attempt to kill beings with 10+ Legend
rating with it if their health boxes have been filled
with lethal or aggravated damage to the -4 boxes or
beyond.
AVATAR Underworld General
The Scion commands armies of the dead, calling
upon the souls of the departed and raising their old
bodies to fight again.
Death

Whenever the Scion kills one of the living in

combat, their bodies rise up to to join her swarm of
Walking Dead. For each living swarm unit or
character killed the Scion gains 1 unit of Walking
Dead and the Scion also summon double the
amount of units when summoning Walking Dead or
Ghost Warriors with HERO Unquiet Corpse or
DEMIGOD Spectral Leash.

Finally, her GOD Open Underworld Portal now

lasts until canceled and functions in both directions.
The Scion can maintain a number of active portals
equal to her dots in Legend.

AVATAR Touch of Death

Any Death boon that steals resources or health such

as HERO Life Stealing Strike, DEMIGOD
Siphon Ichor and GOD Soul Leeching Technique
count 5s and 6s as a success on their damage and
activation rolls. Moreover, the maximum amount of
resources these boons can steal per activation is
doubled.

Finally, any roll to grab a soul with DEMIGOD

Soul Touch count 5s and 6s as successes on the
activation roll and the Scion may hold on to one
soul per dot of Legend she has indefinitely. Any
soul above this number she is carrying follow the
normal rules.
 Earth
Earth is the solid foundation on which all human civilization rests. It is not only the soil and the rock, but
everything under ground. Metals, gems, coal, oil and magma all fall under the domain of the Earth purview.
A Scion mastering earth can mold earthen materials with her hands, command the ground to rise or fall
around her, sink underneath the ground to travel through it unimpeded and even birth new volcanoes from
the depths of the planet.
HERO Between a Rock and a Hard Place
Cost: 2 legend
Type: Reflexive
The Scion's has learned to use her armor and its
weight to their full advantage. When hitting
someone in unarmed melee(punch, kick, clinch,
etc.) she gains one bonus damage dice to the attack
for every three points of soak she has in her highest
soak value.
HERO Safely Interred
Cost: None
Type: Passive
Whether the character is caught up in a landslide,
buried in a shallow grave or trapped in a collapsed
building she need not fear the earth’s embrace. No
amount of collapsing rubble can break the Scions
bones and he won’t suffocate no mater how much
dirt piles onto him. If he lacks the strength to free
himself he does however run the risk of starving or
thirsting to death.
HERO Echo Sounding
Cost: 1 Legend
Type: Simple
By stamping her foot or knocking on the earth the
Scion gets a sense of its general composition and
density, as well as finding holes or caves beneath
the surface. This boon can look for specific
materials such as gold or oil but then only gives the
direction and distance to the closest deposit at the
expense of any other information the boon can give.
63
Echo Sounding reaches as far as the character can
normally see during clear conditions but is not
affected by sight related powers, but rather touch
related powers.
HERO Shaping
Cost: 1 Legend per cubic meter
Type: Miscellaneous Action / Simple
The Scion can sculpt stone, concrete, fired clay or
metal with her bare hands. When she activates
Shaping she rolls Dexterity+Craft with a difficulty
depending on the complexity of the craft. The time
required is dependent on the complexity and the
size of the resulting object. Shaping crude or small
typically take one turn. The boon lasts as long as
she remains in contact with the material. Once she
lets go of the material it sets in it new form.
Shaping has limited use in combat by locking the
enemy inside one of affected materials. In order to
imprison her enemies she must first have access to
one of the affectable materials and then she take a
Simple action as a boon activation in combat and
rolls Dexterity+Craft with an increased difficulty of
2. If the roll succeeds the attack does no damage but
one of the enemy’s limbs is locked or imprisoned in
the material and can not be used until she breaks
free. Breaking free of clay would be fairly easy
while breaking free of metal would be quite hard.
DEMIGOD Earth Armor
Cost: 3 legend
Type: Simple
The Scion summons an earthen armor around her
body, protecting her from harm. The armor counts
as a Heavy Armor and grants the Scion one and a
Earth
half times her Legend rating to all soaks(rounded
up). A character can only wear one armor at a time
and cannot activate this boon while wearing another
armor. Heavy Armors reduces a characters DV
with 1 for every 3 DV she already has.
DEMIGOD Earth Travel
Cost: 2 legend per submersion
Type: Simple
The Scion can with this boon travel through the
earth at her normal move or dash speed. Taking
consecutive dash actions are as tiring under the
earth as it would be on land but with proper
amounts of Epic Stamina and knacks the Scion
could possibly go on forever. Any knack or boon
that normally affects the speed of Dash Actions can
be used while using Earth Travel.
While Earth Travel is activated the Scion can
breathe unhindered and will not suffocate and she
has a limited sense of her surroundings(Legend
meters in radius). For a clearer picture to navigate
by she can use HERO Echo Sounding.
DEMIGOD Strength of the Earth
Cost: 1 Willpower
Type: Simple
By touching a rock, the Scion can drain the earthen
essence out of it and transfer its power to herself.
For every liter of rock/metal or every milliliter of
gems or precious metals she can extract 1 legend up
to a maximum of her Legend rating per willpower
spent. Drawing out the essence corrupts the
material, rock becomes porous and shatters, metals
rust or deteriorate and gems crack and become
dust.
This boon can only draw power from mundane
materials. Stones or metals created or altered by
magic are not eligible for this power and neither are
magical materials such as Orichalcium or Dwarven
Silver.
DEMIGOD Landslide
Cost: 7 legend + 1 willpower
Type: Simple, Area Effect
The Scion reaches out and can change the shape of
soil and stone around and in front of her. She can
make jagged spars of stone thrust up from the
surface or create yawning crevices beneath the feet
of her enemies. She can raise earthen walls or
detach a sheet of earth from a hillside to send it
crashing down or even halt a landslide in progress
by binding the loose soil to the ground.
After paying the cost of the boon the Scion rolls her
(Strength or Intelligence)+Craft and notes the
successes. For the coming scene she may reshape
ten cubic meters of earth per success rolled and the
power can affect earth at a range of up to 50 meters
times her Legend.
The Scion can also use this power to attack her
enemies by crushing them with rocks or burying
them in sand. Each attack must use at least 1 cubic
meter of earth and gains 1 accuracy dice(does not
count toward the bonus dice cap) for every cubic
meter of earth beyond the first one she adds to the
attack but cannot use more than two times her
Legend cubic meters in a single attack. The attack
counts as a throwing attack and attack is rolled with
(Dexterity or Strength)+Marksmanship and
damage is rolled with Strength. If more than 5 cubic
meters is used in the same attack the attack also
gains the Area Effect property and hits everyone in
a radius of 1 meter per 5 cubic meters used in the
attack. Area Effect attacks do double damage to
swarms.
The Scion may activate this boon and attack with it
during the same action.
If the Scion is attacking with molten metal or lava
the attack gains the Piercing property and the target
must succeed on a Stamina+Fortitude roll against
the successes of the attack roll or be lit on fire and
take four dice of lethal damage every time he
refreshes his action until doused(minimum damage
rules apply as normal).
Landslide
Accuracy 1 Damage 4L Range 50xLegend Speed 6
The Scion can make attacks up to 50 meters per dot
of Legend she has but her target must be standing
within 10 meters of any rock used in the attack.
Once all the allotted material had been used up, the
Scion must reactivate this boon to use it again.

DEMIGOD Liquify Rock
Cost: 4 legend
Type: Simple
The Scion has the power to liquify earth, rock or
metal, melting it to become lava or liquid metal. She
touches the object she attempts to transform and
rolls (Intelligence or Strength)+Craft and for every
success, one cubic meter of material is transformed
to lava. Molten lava is roughly 1000 degrees Celsius
and will light flammable materials on fire and melt
most metals.
The Scion is protected from the temperature while
casting the boon but will otherwise be burned by it
without protection like the Fire boon HERO Fire
Immunity. The lava or liquid metal can be affected
by other Earth boons like HERO Shaping or
DEMIGOD Landslide.
DEMIGOD Earth Creation
Cost: 1+ legend
Type: Simple
The Scion can, from nothing, create any earthen
material like dirt, rock, sand, gold, iron, coal,
diamonds or even oil. The cost is 1 legend per cubic
meter of common earthen materials like rocks, dirt,
silicon or even commonly found ores such as iron or
aluminium. For uncommon materials such as noble
metals, gems or crude oil the amount of material
created is ten times smaller. Materials created are in
the form they are naturally found under the ground,
i.e. metals are created in ore form and oil is created
as crude oil.
GOD Earth Shaker
Cost: 7 legend + 1 willpower
Type: Simple, Area Effect
The Scion’s stride create localized tremors in the
area around her. Every step she takes cracks the
roads around her, shakes the buildings and betrays
the footing of her enemies making them fall to the
ground.
The Scion takes a simple action(Speed 6) to activate
this boon and will then for one minute carry the
65
Earth
weight of the earth itself in her body. Every step she
takes does minor environmental damage to all
structures and inanimate objects in a 100 meter
radius and the vibrations are felt up to 1000 meter
away from her.
Whenever the Scion makes a melee attack with this
boon active the ground trembles before her and all
enemies within 20 meters must succeed on a
Dexterity+Athletics versus the Scion’s
Strength+Brawl. The Scion rolls once and all
enemies individually rolls against his successes. The
Scion can also create this effect by making an
unarmed attack at the ground. Moreover the Scion
does double damage to inanimate objects that are
attached to the ground like houses, bridges, subway
stations and so on.
The Scion can cancel out the vibrations underneath
small objects or any of her allies but cannot shield
large structures like houses or trailer trucks from
the collateral damage of this boon.
See the Section on Taking and Dealing Damage in
the rules for more information on knock down and
fighting while prone.
GOD Adamant
Cost: 5 legend
Type: Reflexive
The Scion solidifies a thin layer of near
indestructible rock as a second skin around her
body and draws upon the unyielding spirit of the
Earth to protect her soul. For a brief moment, she
becomes nearly unstoppable.
Until she refreshes her next action the Scion adds
twice her Legend to ALL natural soaks(bashing,
lethal and aggravated), she reduces the minimum
damage taken by two dice and adds her Legend as
bonus dice to any social or mental defense roll.
Further, she becomes immune to all knock back and
cannot be knocked down.

 Emissary
The Emissary purview is the domain of travelers, explorers and diplomats. It aids the Scion in traveling long
distances, finding her way to people and places and sending messages across Creation. A master of the
Emissary purview can create portals to distant worlds, adress entire continents or claim diplomatic immunity
while parleying with the titans themselves.
HERO Blessed Path
Cost: 4 legend
Type: Simple
The Scion blesses a path, granting her and her allies
protection from weather, bandits, animals as well as
enjoying a much faster journey.
The Scion declares the destination of her travel and
activates this boon. The path she takes from her
origin to her destination becomes blessed as she
travels upon it. This travel path may either be on
land, sea or in the sky. By a combination of
fortuitous circumstances, such as good weather, tail
wind, horses that never tire, engines that perform
beyond their design and so on, travel time is cut in
half while traveling on the road.
The blessed travelers gain the Scion's Legend as
bonus dice to stave off exhaustion, starvation and
harsh weather conditions and if attacked on the
road, they gain half the Scion's Legend as bonus
DV as long as they're trying to outrun or evade
their enemies.
Once the Scion has finished the journey, the path
becomes permanently blessed and anyone with her
permission gains the effects of the blessed path at
any time. The Scion can at most have a number of
paths equal two times her dots in Legend blessed at
any one time and she may rescind any of her travel
permissions or blessings at any time.
HERO Peaceful Meeting
Cost: 1 legend
Type: Simple
The Scion creates the basis for a peaceful
negotiation. He asks all parties if they agree to a
67
non violent meeting and once all have given their
consent he can cast this boon. Once cast, the
meeting is sanctified with an blessing of peace and
anyone who wishes to initiate hostilities must first
pay 2 points of willpower and will lose dice on his
first action equal to the Scions dots in Legend.
Everyone inside the area will feel that the peace has
been broken, but will not necessarily know who
broke it.
This boon affects everyone inside the meeting's area
and also affects people that were not present when
the boon was cast but only later entered it.
HERO The Way Forward
Cost: 4 legend
Type: Simple
As long as the Scion knows where she is and knows
where her destination is she can attempt to find her
way to it even though the path in between is
unclear.
The Scion names her destination, focuses on the
paths of Creation for a moment, pays to activate the
boon and rolls (Perception or
Intelligence)+Survival at a difficulty set by the table
below. If the roll is successful, she instinctively
knows what direction to go and what turn to make
at every fork in the road as she comes upon them,
but she couldn’t sit down and devise a map of the
path they are about to take. The destination must be
a stationary part of the world, like a mountain, river
or a building. This boon cannot find small items that
can easily be moved, like say Ben's missing laptop,
people or animals.
This boon will show the Scion the path that is
relevant for the vehicle she is traveling in at the time
of casting. If she is in a car, it will guide them

will show them the fastest foot path to their
destination. If the Scion is on land and the

lasts until agreed upon, if no time was specified it
lasts forever. Any oath breaker will suffer severe
consequences. Once per dot of Legend of the Scion
that cast DEMIGOD Sanctify Oath the oath

The rolls that botch are not random but are rather
critical rolls, important to the oath breaker.

DEMIGOD Spirit Guide
Cost: 5 legend
Type: Simple
The Scion touches a person and blesses him with
her ichor after which the Scion may close her eyes
and for no cost appear as a translucent image next
to blessed and see and hear everything that is going
on around him, she is however only a projection and
may not physically interact with the environment
nor may she activate any powers. Both her body
and soul remains in place while projecting her
image to the blessed. Further, if the blessed calls
upon the Scion she hears his voice as if he was in
the room with her. Lasts as many months as the
Scion has dots in Legend.
DEMIGOD Chariot of the Heavens
Cost: 4 legend
Type: Simple
The Scion conjures a mystical vehicle that appears
in front of her. The vehicle corresponds with the
style and sensibility of the Scion casting the boon.
In ancient times, magical chariots drawn by
mystical horses were common, but also flying
palanquins or even flying carpets. In modern times
many other vehicles are possible candidates to be
summoned by this spell, such as airplanes, boats
and even cars. The exact aesthetics of the
summoned vehicles is up the the Scion’s player.
The summoned vehicle flies through the air and can
take half a dozen or so passengers. It has a base
speed of 800 km/h(roughly the speed of a
commercial air liner) but can be further improved
with other powers. The vehicle lasts for 24 hours
and can have its duration refreshed at any time by
simply recasting the boon.
DEMIGOD Winged Words
Cost: 5 legend
Type: Simple
The Scion pours ichor into her breath and mouths
magical words that will carry a message to anyone
in Creation. She speaks the full name of the
recipient and then the message itself which cannot
69
Emissary
be longer than a few sentences. Once spoken, the
message takes the form of a magical shimmer and
speeds away. It reaches its target within ten to
thirty minutes depending on how far it has to travel.
Once it reaches the recipient it is whispered into his
ear exactly as the Scion spoke and with the Scion’s
own voice whereafter the magic disappears.
DEMIGOD Panopticon
Cost: 8 legend + 1 willpower
Type: Simple
The Scion has a person's name or one of his
possessions and uses it in an attempt to magically
ascertain his whereabouts.
The Scion rolls (Intelligence or Wits)+Occult

71
 Fate
The three Fates known as the Maiden, the Mother and the Crone represent the future, the present and the
past and also hold domain over the essence of the gods' magic. It is rare for a Scion to have the sufficient
connection with The Three to master the arcane magics of the Fate purview and those who do are often
equal parts respected and feared for their ability. Scions with this purview may receive prophecies, scry
Destinies, see life-altering events of others and beseech Fate to intervene in their own lives or the lives of
others. A Scion strong in the Fate purview is often called an oracle.

What counts as being within Fate? HERO Sense Age

The domain of the three Fates spans across the
middle world, all mortal beings, all gods as well as
the Overworlds and Underworlds of the gods. Fate
has no domain over any of the titan worlds and all
beings from those worlds such as titan spawn and
titan paragons are considered are all outside of Fate
and this includes Tartarus. Finally, the unformed
Overworld is also outside of Fate.
Cost: 1 legend
Type: Simple
The Scion can with a touch sense the age of an
object which is the time that has passed since it took
on its current form. The metal in an amulet may be
billions of years old, but if the amulet was crafted in
the 1700s, then this boon will say that the item is
300 or so years old. Minor damage can also be time
stamped by use of this boon.

HERO The Unlidded Eye
Cost: 1 legend + 1 willpower
Type: Simple
The Scion opens up her mind to the strands of fate
around her and for a few moments she glimpses the
machinations of the universe all around her. The
caster pays the cost and for one minute her normal
sight is replaced with The Unlidded Eye that sees
all magical forces at work around her. She can
roughly determine how strong the magic is by the
intensity of its light but can otherwise not determine
the exact potency of relics or supernatural beings.
The magic of Illusions is however not illuminated by
this boon and magical beings or items disguised by
illusions will likewise not appear as magical to The
Unlidded Eye.
While she is viewing the world through The
Unlidded Eye she is at a −4 penalty for all tasks
involving vision and at a −4 DV penalty. The
Unlidded Eye lasts one minute but she can end the
effect early if she so wishes.
The older the object is the less precise this boon
becomes. An object just a few hours old can be time
stamped on the minute, but an object thousands of
years old can only be pinpointed to a decade. For
object millions or billions of years old the boon is
even less precise.
HERO Glean Fate
Cost: 3 legend + 1 willpower
Type: Simple
When looking at a person the Scion can shift her
perceptions and gaze into the person’s fate. She
rolls (Intelligence or Perception)+Occult at
difficulty 3 against the targets Wits+Legend, if
successful she gleans the fate of the person.
In the case of mortals she sees the twilight years of
the person as well as his death but if the person is a
Scion’s she sees any active Destinies that the
character has. If the target is an Aesir the difficulty
of the activation roll is increased to 9 but should the
Scion be successful she sees his active destinies as
well as his Daudadagr, the exact circumstances at
which the Aesir dies.

72

HERO Augury
Cost: None
Type: Passive
Either selected by Fates or by seeking their favor,
the Scion becomes one of their prophets and is now
a permanent channel for the Fates to send visions
and prophecies through. Upon purchasing HERO
Augury, the Scion gains a permanent, but tenuous,
connection to the Fates which allows her to receive
prophecies. These can be visions, sounds, smells or
abstract insights that rush into the Scion’s mind, but
they are never subtle. The Scion is overwhelmed as
she catches a glimpse of the weave of Fate and is for
a moment deprived of all her normal senses as her
eyes glow with white light.
The prophecies she receive with this boon are
Grand Prophecies which depict pivotal future
events such as the destruction of a city, the death of
a ruler, the birth of a god or a scion falling to the
titans. Like her connection to the Fates, so too are
the prophecies she receive tenuous and vague.
Thick with symbolism and with no details spelled
out in clear text, it is up to Scion to decipher the
information she is given.
Spending legend is a way to bend the Fate and
change the future and the Scion may set out, armed
with her new information, to tweak any events that
she foresaw to one direction or the other.
Scions from different pantheons often receive their
visions in different ways as each family's connection
with Fate is slightly different. For example, the loa
often receive their prophecies through mirrors or
other reflective surfaces, the Celestial Bureaucracy
receives visions or insights during meditation while
prophetic Olympians enters an ecstatic prophetic
state while intoxicated by drugs or alcohol. These
are not hard rules and the exact aesthetics
surrounding the prophecies are ultimately up to the
player.
There is no way the Scion can force prophecies to
come to her with this boon, rather the onus is on the
Storyteller to provide the player with a satisfactory
stream of prophecies.
DEMIGOD Bona Fortuna
73
Fate
Cost: 3 legend
Type: Simple
The Scion grabs the weave of fate around her or
someone else and tweaks it in their favor, granting
them a streak of good fortune, fortuitous
circumstances or just plain dumb luck.
The Scion's player rolls (Wits or
Intelligence)+Occult and selects a beneficiary which
may be herself. Each success gives the beneficiary
one die he may add to any dice pool for any roll he
makes for the remainder of the scene. He does not
have to add all dice to a roll if he does not wish too
but may apportion them however he wants. If Bona
Fortuna is cast upon a person again, any unused
dice from a previous Bona Fortuna are removed.
DEMIGOD Evil Eye
Cost: 3 legend
Type: Simple
The Scion glares at a target and tears at his fate,
fraying it and hobbling his magic. The Scion rolls
(Wits or Intelligence)+Occult and the target
defends with his Wits+Integrity. If successful the
target is cursed and loses three additional legend for
every knack or boon he activates for the rest of the
scene.
Can only be cast on creatures that are within fate.
DEMIGOD Divine Unweaving
Cost: Same cost as spell being unweaved
Type: Simple
The Scion attempts to rip apart a persistent magical
effect such as a boon or a knack. The Scion rolls
Intelligence+Occult against the activation roll of the
caster of the effect that is being unwoven. If the
power had no activation roll its owner rolls
Intelligence+Legend once and notes the successes.
This boon can only target magical weaves but not
its direct effects in the world. E.g. when magical
heat wave lights a room on fire the heat wave is
magical but the flames created by it are not.
Moreover, this boon cannot destroy the underlying
magic of relics.
DEMIGOD Forge Your Own
Fate
Cost: 6 legend + 1 willpower
Type: Simple
This boon has two uses. Firstly, the Scion can
create Destinies for herself, setting her own course
in life. She specifies the goal of her Destiny and
then rolls (Wits or Intelligence)+Occult at difficulty
equal to her dots in Legend if she has no other
active Destiny. The difficulty is twice her dots in
Legend if she has one active Destiny and three
times her dots in Legend if she has two active
Destinies. No one can have more than three active
Destinies at any one time. If successful she gains the
postulated Destiny at rank 1.
Like destinies bestowed by the Fates the Destiny
has a theme but the Scion may set it herself. Any
call to action that fits in a sentence is an acceptable
destiny but the Storyteller has the final say to what
destinies are ok. Some example destinies are
"reclaim my family's honor", "reunite Tobias with
his family" or "kill divine parent". Aesir cannot gain
a Destiny that is in contradiction of their
Daudadagr.
Secondly, the Scion may attempt to shun a new
Destiny as it is given to her. If she at the end of a
scene rolls for a new Destiny and receives it, she
may activate this boon and attempt to shun the
Destiny that is handed down to her. She rolls (Wits
or Intelligence)+Occult at a difficulty of two times
the dots she has in Legend.
DEMIGOD Divination
Cost: 5 legend(when scrying)
Type: Simple
Prerequisite: HERO Augury
In order to purchase this boon the Scion must first
possess the Fate boon HERO Augury. When
purchasing this boon the Scion's connection with
the Fates deepens and the effect is threefold. Her
visions become less murky, she more often receives
prophecies closer in time, she may even attempt to
scry into the future of an event or a person.
Firstly, any Grand Prophecy normally received
with HERO Augury now become clearer and a few
key details are now spelled out in greater detail or
are perhaps just plainly stated by the prophecy.
What would before be referred to as the "The rage
that devours" would instead be something like "Our
fallen brother, the son of Balder". Some parts of the
prophecies may still be hard to grasp and still come
to her in symbolism but it is obvious to the Scion
which parts of the prophecies that are symbolic and
which that are clear.
Secondly, the Scion may now catch small glimpses
into the near future known as Minor Prophecies. A
robbery gone wrong killing an innocent bystander,
a careless driver hitting a pedestrian or even a
firebomb detonating behind the door she's about to
open. These Minor Prophecies are always clear and
never symbolic. In contrast to the Grand Prophecies
into the far future granted by HERO Augury these
may concern everyday mortals or more mundane
events(they may however have some sort of
importance to the Scion herself).
Moreover, the Scion may roll (Intelligence or
Wits)+Occult instead of Perception+Awareness to
detect danger such as surprise attacks, traps or the
like. If successful she catches a glimpse of the
danger springing into action and its effects. These
dangers don't have to be perceptible by any of the
Scion's physical senses but they have to be within
Fate.
Thirdly, the Scion may attempt to Scry the future of
a person or a place. In order to Scry a person the
person must be willing and the Scion must first
spend a few moments to touch and examine the
target prior to each scrying attempt, like reading the
lines of his palm or studying the depths of his eyes.
She then focuses her mind on the Weave of Fate
and spends 5 legend. The Scion rolls (Wits or
Intelligence)+Occult against the difficulty gathered
from the table below. If successful the Scion sees a
future that may come to pass, however it is
obscured and unclear as a prophecy granted by
HERO Augury. However, if she succeeds with 10
or more threshold successes, the prophecy becomes
clearer, like the effect that DEMIGOD Divination
has on a Scion's visions, making some parts clear.

DEMIGOD Knowing Touch of the Crone
Cost: 3 legend
Type: Simple
The Scion touches a person and gazes into his past,
becoming privy to his most life-altering events and
seeing the events that made him the person he is
today.
To use this boon the Scion must touch the person
for a few moments and then rolls (Wits or
Intelligence)+Occult against the person's
Wits+Integrity. If the other person is a willing
participant no mental defense roll is required, but
the Scion still rolls her activation roll.
If she is successful she will then see in her mind's
eye one event plus an additional event for every five
threshold successes scored. She sees the most
impactful event first and then rest in descending
order of significance. Should the Scion ever want to
she may also use this boon on herself.
GOD Oracle
Cost: 25 legend + 1 willpower
Type: Simple
Prerequisite: DEMIGOD Divination
The Scion's connection with Fate is so strong that
she can now draw Greater Prophecies from the
weave of fate herself. This costs 25 legend and 1
willpower and once the Scion has drawn out a
Greater Prophecy through the use of this boon she
cannot draw another one until the latest one is
resolved. That is, it has either come to pass or it has
been thwarted.
Moreover the Scion can now Scry other people, as
defined in DEMIGOD Divination, without their
75
Fate
permission and needn't examine them for several
minutes but can rather just touch them briefly to
read their future.
GOD Sight Beyond Sight
Cost: 3 legend / minute
Type: Simple
The Scion's sight is suffused with the power of The
Mother while she focuses on a location that is
within fate. She must either have been at this place
herself or must be able to name it. She can then see
and listen to this far away location as if she was
there herself.
She doesn't need to know exactly where the place
she is looking is in the world. If she knows that
Atreos son of Zeus has a lair inside a volcano she
will be able to see inside it by simply asking "Atreos'
hidden volcano" but this would not inform the Scion
of where this volcano is, only what it looks like from
the inside.
GOD Echoes of the Past
Cost: 15 legend + 1 willpower
Tyda: Simple
The Scion touches the local weave of fate and
coaxes the threads of the past out of it, letting her
perceive what has transpired in the area around her.
She takes a moment to attune her mind to the weave
of fate around her and determines what specific
event(if any) she is looking for, pays the cost and
rolls (Intelligence or Wits)+Occult at a difficulty
determined by the table below. If successful, time
slows to a halt for the Scion and in the blink of an
eye in the real world she may spend minutes or even
hours observing the past.
The scene selected by the boon plays out before her
and she may walk around in the room and observe
it from different angles and even stop, start and
replay it. She can perceive the scene with all of her
senses except her touch but she cannot interact with
or change the past.
The Scion can narrow the search according to the
table below but if the search is wider than just one
possible event the boon will show her the most
fateful event that fits her constraints. That is, the
Fate

event in which the three Fates considered to be the thus becomes immune to all surprise attacks and
most impactful in the grand scheme of things. adds her Legend rating as successes to all Join
Battle rolls.
When the Scion is ready she may open her eyes and
return to the real world where at most a few
seconds have passed.

Type: Simple

When the Scion's player activates this boon the

Avatar powers
For each Avatar boon the Scion purchases, she is
permanently locked out from one of Fate's
antithetical purviews, Chaos and Order. The Scion
cannot purchase more than two Avatar powers in
the same purview.
AVATAR Maiden's Fancy
Whenever the Scion rolls to gain or to lose a
Destiny or improve an existing one she may decide
the outcome of each dice rolled. When she improves
an existing Destiny she may choose to gain two
ranks in it instead of just one. Moreover, she may
use DEMIGOD Forge Your Own on characters
other than herself to give them new destinies or to
shun a new destiny as they are received. Finally the
minor prophecies from her DEMIGOD Divination
allows her to see into the very near future and can
see her enemies move before they actually do and
Scion's future self travels back in time for brief
moment to give her present self information that she
currently does not possess but that she reasonably
could possess in the future. Her future self cannot
pass along objects or in any way intervene in the
physical world or cast any boons or knacks. She
may only pass along a brief message from the future
typically containing some critical information that
the Scion could really use at the time.
When this happens, the present Scion sets aside 20
points of legend that she becomes unable to spend.
In order to unlock these legend points the Scion
must, independent of the information she was given
by her future self, find this information in the
present and then resolve the paradox by sending it
back to her past self. This is done by spending the
20 points of legend that was set aside during the
"activation" of this boon. Once the cost is payed her
legend points become unlocked and can be
regenerated and spent again as normal.
 Fate

Should the information she needs to recover from

the present become irrevocably destroyed her
legend is recovered but the paradox shatters one of
the threads in the Scion's fate weave permanently
reducing her willpower by one dot. This dot can
only be restored by repurchasing it with experience
points.

77
 Fertility
Where the Animal purview has domain over Creation's fauna, the Fertility purview has domain of its flora.
Everything between the smallest sun starved lichen to the giant redwood are at the beck and call of a
practitioner of this purview. Fertility Scions may twist the plants of nature, call for their aid in combat, distill
powerful poisons, refine medications and create their own supernatural plants with special properties.
HERO Twist Plants
Cost: 3 legend
Type: Simple
For one Scene the Scion may as a reflexive action
move plants within 5 meters per dot of Legend she
has. The plants don’t move fast enough to be used in
combat but may build barriers, shelters or stepping
stones. Other than moving the plants, the Scion
may also form the plants to make footholds,
spiraling stair cases in tree trunks and so on. All
changes are permanent.
HERO Toxic Thorn
Cost: 2 legend
Type: Reflexive
The Scion grows a poisonous thorn from one of her
limbs and her next successful unarmed attack
delivers a dose of a lethal toxin. This boon must be
activated before rolling to attack but lasts until it
hits and then gets stuck in its victim. The Scion may
also dislodge it at will. The poison has the following
stats.
Tolerance: None; Damage: 2L/action; Toxicity:
Scion's Legend; Penalty: −3
HERO Verdant Creation
Cost: 1 legend
Type: Simple
The Scion creates a plant from nothing, they grow
from the ground, cracks in the pavement, the
surface of a lake or even in her own hands. The
plant is any type of mundane plant the Scion knows
of, they are created to be a couple of months old and
are blessed to thrive for at least one year.
78
HERO Blessing of Fertility
Cost: 2 legend
Type: Simple
The Scion blesses a field or a creature to become
fertile. If the Scion blesses a field it affects an area
up to 100 meters per dot of legend that she has and
that field will have bountiful harvests and be
resistant to disease, insects and parasite for one
year. If she blesses a person he or she will for one
month's time become fertile and any intercourse
that can lead to pregnancy will automatically do so.
The person will become fertile even if he or she is
normally infertile due to damaged reproductive
organs, genetic problems or similar ailments.
DEMIGOD Barkskin
Cost: 3 legend
Type: Simple
The Scion grows a layer of smooth bark across her
skin that counts as a medium armor. It has soak to
all damage types equal to the Scion's dots in
Legend. A character can only wear one armor at a
time and cannot activate this boon while she is
wearing another armor. Medium armor reduces a
character's DV with 1 for every 5 DV she has.
DEMIGOD One With Nature
Cost: 3 Legend
Type: Reflexive
For one scene’s time, nature rises around the Scion
to protect her and her allies, keep them safe and
hidden. While in an area dominated by the planet’s
flora be it a field, a forest or even an underwater
location such as a kelp forest or a coral reef the
plants will come to the Scion’s aid. This boon affects

the Scion and any allies that are within 3 meters per
dot of Legend she has.
With this boon activated anyone pursuing her in a
foot chase has to contend with roots tripping him,
branches getting in his way and bee hives being
dropped on his head. As such, he loses dice on any
roll to chase the Scion to the Scion’s Legend.
Further, the Scion leaves no marks or footprints
and all mundane tracking attempt fails.
Supernatural tracking attempts lose dice equal to
her dots in Legend. Moreover, while attempting to
hide the Scion gains her Legend rating as bonus
dice to all Stealth rolls while in the area as bushes
block the view of her pursuer, branches reach down
to cover her body and the Scion’s skin shifts to
blend into the background.
DEMIGOD Wrath of Nature
Cost: 2 legend per unit
Type: Simple
Nature springs up around the Scion to fight for her.
Vines choke, razor sharp thorns saw through flesh
and thin roots burrow into to bodies of her enemies.
The Scion awakens the flora around her, or if she is
in a barren environment, conjures new plants that
will punch through the ground to aid her. If she is
conjuring plants there must be a ground from which
they can spring and if she is high up in the ground
or suspended in the middle of a lake this boon with
plants around her this boon cannot be used.
The plants that are summoned fight as a swarm
under the Scion's command but are immobile and
cannot move. They may have deceptively long reach
with long tree branches or snaking vines but are in
the end stationary. The plants have the following
statistics.
Awakened Flora
Join Battle: 10
Attack: Acc 12, 12L, Speed 5
Resilience: 6
Bonus per unit: +3 Acc
DEMIGOD Envenom / Purify
79
Fertility
Cost: 5 legend
Type: Simple, Supplemental
The Scion's touches a handful of a plant based drug,
poison or medicine and concentrates it too a much
more potent form. If used on a medicine the purity
of it medicine is enhanced and the amount of doses
that can be extracted from it is tripled.
If used on a poison its damage is upgraded from
damage dice to levels of damage(the letter 'L' is
added to its Toxicity). If the poison already does
health levels of damage its Toxicity is instead
increased by half the Scion's Legend rating. This
boon can be used together with other boons that
conjure poisons like HERO Toxic Thorn or GOD
Kiss of Death with a combo.
A substance can only benefit from this boon once.
DEMIGOD Wild Growth
Cost: 5+ legend
Type: Simple
The Scion grants a mundane plant or a seed a
portion of her ichor and it grows explosively. In a
few moments trees become full grown while bushes,
plants and vines spread out over a large area. This
boon cannot be used on supernatural flora.
This boon can be used to break inanimate objects
such as walls, houses or even tanks. The Scion
places the plant or the seed on or near the object she
wishes to attack and activates this boon. Ceilings
are punched through by growing tree trunks, walls
are perforated with root systems and floors crushed
to make way for the growing plants and machinery
is overgrown and grinds to a halt. Using this boon
the Scion may roll to damage the inanimate object
with her either her Intelligence or her Strength and
may add one extra damage dice(that does not count
toward the bonus damage dice cap) for every point
of legend she spends beyond the first five required
to activate the boon.
Fertility
DEMIGOD Overworld Flora
Cost: 10 legend + 1 Willpower
Type: Simple
The Scion creates a new type of plant, magical in
nature with many supernatural qualities. The first
plant takes a minute to grow to a young but mature
state after which it can reproduce as normal. The
Scion has for all intents and purposes created a new
species and if watched over the plants can over time
spread over large areas of land.
At the time of creation the Scion determines the
main characteristics of the plant such as if it is a
tree, flower or bush, its size and color and so on.
She also picks two supernatural traits from the list
below to bestow her new plant with. This is not an
exhaustive list and the player and storyteller could
agree on other traits.
Poisonous - The plant produces an especially toxic
poison. It can be harvested from the plant and has
the following stats. Tolerance: None, Damage:
4L/action, Toxicity: Scion's Legend, Penalty: -4.
Medicinal Compounds - The plant produces
medicine for one type of disease that the Scion
herself understands how it is made. See the
Diseases chapter for more information on how to
devise new treatments for diseases.
Floral Locomotion - Ripping it roots out of the soil,
the plant may move around freely above ground.
Larger plants move more slowly, after its jaunt is
complete it must burrow its roots again or it will
wither.
Nature’s Factory - The plant produces one material
that is impossible for mundane plants to create. E.g.
wood stronger than steel, invisible ink, oil ready for
a combustion engine, iron ore that can be smelted to
steel and so on.
Resilience - The plant is completely resistant to one
type of environment, no matter how harsh. It not
only grows but thrives in the numbing cold of the
permafrost, the blazing heat of a volcano or even
the lifeless vacuum of the moon.
Size - The plant either shrinks to diminutive size or
grows to gargantuan proportions. The Scion may
freely change grow or shrink a plants size up to 100
times. Plants that are already very large(such as red
wood trees) will grow less and will only be doubled
in size and plants that are already small(such as the
Wolffia plant where several flowers can fit on a pin
head) can only be shrunk to half its normal size. But
middle sized plants can be changed radically with
roses or lotus flowers becoming several meters tall
or pine woods being miniaturized so that they can
fit in the palm of one’s hand.
GOD Kiss of Death
Cost: 20 legend + 1 willpower
Type: Supplemental
The Scion’s touches her target with a wrestling
grab, a choke hold, a brush of the fingers or a kiss
on the lips and poisons her target with a slow acting
neurotoxin that dooms mortals and kills all but the
most resilient Scions or Gods. Note that the
poison’s Toxicity has the ‘L’ property and does
levels of damage instead of dice. The poison has the
following statistics.
Tolerance: None; Damage: 10A/hour; Toxicity:
(Scion's Legend)L; Penalty: −5
GOD Woodland Spirit
Cost: 10 legend + 1 willpower
Type: Simple
The Scion touches a young plant and grows Seams
in it which moments later is provided a soul by
Creation and the plant becomes sentient.
The young plant can uproot itself and move freely
above ground and may be capable of verbal
communication or will otherwise be able to use sign
language. It starts with Legend 2 and may gain an
additional point of Legend rating for every 100
years it lives up to a maximum of Legend 9. It can
gain points in any Epic Attribute and can learn
boons from the Fertility purview plus an additional
purview that is thematically tied to the plant’s
species and type. A kelp forest in a coral reef could
learn the Water purview while a leafless tree that
only grows on graveyards could learn the Death
purview and so on.
If the plant reproduces, its offspring does not grow
seams and will not receive souls from Creation.
GOD Rebirth
Cost: 45 legend + 1 willpower

Type: Simple
The Scion conjures a giant flower, bush of thorns,
tree or other plant that is intrinsically linked to her
soul and ichor. Should she die her soul will return
to plant that will reform her body so that she can
live again.
Casting this boon takes 24 hours of uninterrupted
tending to and meditation on the plant she is
growing and once completed the plant becomes
linked to her soul. Should she die while linked to
the plant she loses no willpower from dying and her
soul immediately attempts to return to the plant
which will only take a few minutes if unimpeded.
Once inside the plant it closes around itself and a
new body, identical to her old one, is formed over
the next 24 hours. The Scion is unconscious during
this time but after the body is formed the plant
opens up, the Scion steps out of it reborn and
remembers everything up to the point of her death.
The plant remains linked to the Scion's soul is ready
to receive her soul again should her body die again
after she has been reformed.
The plant is however fragile and can be destroyed.
Attacks against it are resolved as attacks against
inanimate objects and it has a Hardness and Health
levels equal to the Scion's dots in Legend. If the
plant is destroyed the damage spreads to the Scion's
soul and she suffers five health levels of aggravated
damage. Finally, if the plant is destroyed while her
soul is inside it and her body is being reformed she
dies the true death, her soul suffers the pull of
Tartarus, loses the normal amount of willpower
upon dying and she becomes a ghost.
The Scion's soul can only be linked to one plant at
any one time and casting this boon again severs to
the connection to any previous plant created with
this boon.
Avatar powers
For each Avatar boon the Scion purchases, she is
permanently locked out from one of Fertility's
antithetical purviews, Death and Affliction. The
Scion cannot purchase more than two Avatar
powers in the same purview.

Fertility
AVATAR Deathly Essence
Cost: None
Type: Passive
Any poison that the Scion touches, creates or uses
may gain Toxicity equal to half the Scion’s Legend
rating and she may freely change how quickly or
slowly the poison does damage. The damage
interval cannot be shorter then once every action or
longer than once every day.
AVATAR Forest God
Cost: None
Type: Passive
The Scion’s HERO Twist Plants has its range
increased to 100 meters per dot of Legend and can
make plants uproot and move, albeit slowly. The
plants conjured by her DEMIGOD Wrath of
Nature can now move as quickly as a mortal
humans and gains +2 resilience and +1 acc per unit.
The cost of her DEMIGOD Wild Growth is
halved and it may be used on supernatural plants as
well as mundane ones.
AVATAR Soul of Blossoms
Cost: None
Type: Passive
The Scion's ichor merges with the primal life force
that empowers all of nature. Upon learning this
boon her body is permanently transformed from
flesh and blood to plant fibers and cellulose. Her
skin becomes green, her hair turns into a swell of
leaves and flowers, and sap flows through her veins
instead of blood.
As long as the Scion has access to sun light and air
while her body is not dehydrated she performs
photosynthesis healing her body and regenerating
points of legend. Every time it is her tick to act in
combat she gains 2 points of legend and heals one
level of bashing, lethal or aggravated damage.
Outside of combat this happens roughly every five
seconds. Moreover, her DEMIGOD Barkskin
turns into light armor(no longer reduces DV) and
lasts forever.
Fertility

The Scion can no longer procreate normally without

boons like DEMIGOD Parthenogenesis but can
pollinate plants by touching them which makes
them procreate and spread faster than normal.
These plants are not granted souls and do not
become sentient but she can speed up the
procreation of mundane and supernatural plants
alike by touching them and flowers may bloom
when she steps on fertile soil.

Finally, plants granted sentience with her GOD

Woodland Spirit can now gain Legend rating all
the way to 12 points and may gain Legend rating
faster than one point every 100 years.
 Frost
Most popular with the Aesir and the Inuits, but in use by most pantheons, the purview of Frost has domain
over the cold, ice and winter weather and the suppression of emotions. With this boon they may walk
unprotected through the arctic night, chill their enemies until they are unable to act, conjure or shape large
chunks of ice and cool the passions of others and remain level headed herself. Masters of this purview can
conjure winter storms and channel the absolute cold of Niflheim itself.

Frost
DEMIGOD Ice Sculptor
Cost: 3 legend
Type: Simple
The Scion conjures ice from nothing or manipulate
already existing ice into any shape she can think of
crafting tables, sculptures, stair wells, bunkers or
even suits of armor and simple weapons.
She rolls (Dexterity or Intelligence)+Craft and may
for each success scored conjure, manipulate or
shape one cubic meter of ice over the course of the
scene. Should she run out of successes she must
activate this boon again if she wishes to conjure or
shape more ice.
The Scion has to touch the ice she wishes to
manipulate or where she wishes to conjure new ice.
The ice manipulated or conjured may stretch for
any distance but she must touch at least one point of
it for the boon to have effect.
As a Miscellaneous Action(Speed 5) she may
conjure simple, low tech items such as tables, chairs
or chains. She may also form any low tech weapons
or armors such as swords, shields, bows and plate
armor but not firearms or bullet proof vests.
Weapons and armor are always crafted as the
mundane version listed in the weapons and armor
chapter and have no special properties other than
being made out of ice. Each item conjured costs at
least one success from the activation roll.
If used to craft barriers to block of corridors, doors
or to use as protection from ranged attackers the ice
has at most 3 HP per dot of Legend the Scion has
and a hardness equal to two times her dots in
Legend.
The Scion is immune to the cold of the items she has
created but other characters need HERO Frost
Immunity or equivalent to comfortably handle
them. All ice conjured or shaped retains its shape
for one scene and is thereafter subject to the
environment.
DEMIGOD Sedna's Embrace
Cost: 4 legend
Type: Simple
The Scion conjures chilling sleet that freezes her foe
and gathers as a sheet of ice around him hindering
his movement or potentially locking him in place.
The Scion picks a single character to target with the
and that person suffers -2 to all physical dice pools
and his DV for six ticks(up to and including the
Scion's next action). This penalty is increased with -
1 dice to physical actions and -1 to DV for each
threshold success scored for the Scion on a
contested (Dexterity or Intelligence)+Occult
against the target's Stamina+Fortitude.
After the six ticks has passed the target manages to
shrug off the worst of the sleet and ice that has
formed around his body and returns to normal.
DEMIGOD Razor Ice
Cost: 4 legend + 1 willpower
Type: Simple, Counter Attack
The Scion conjures a cloud of razor sharp icicles
swirls around her, threatening to cut, stab and
eviscerate anyone who comes too close. Anyone that
attacks the Scion in melee automatically gets
counter attacked by the razor ice that attacks with
the Scion's (Strength or Dexterity)+Melee, rolls for
damage with her Strength and has the stats detailed
below. The boon lasts for one Scene.
Razor Ice
Accuracy 0, Damage 0L, Speed N/A
DEMIGOD Best Served Cold
Cost: None
Type: Passive
Whenever the Scion rolls to control her own
emotions, she may reroll for free and pick the
highest of the two results.

DEMIGOD Listless
Cost: 2 legend
Type: Simple
The Scion looks an opponent in the eye and freezes
his passions. Numb and listless, the affected target
becomes cold and indifferent for the rest of the
scene and is also unable to activate virtues until the
effect wears off. The Scion rolls her
Charisma+Presence against the target’s
Wits+Integrity to activate.
GOD Breath of Nifelheim
Cost: 7 legend + 1 willpower
Type: Reflexive, Perfect Defense
The Scion conjures a pulse of cold from the depths
of Niflheim itself, momentarily freezing everything
around her to a standstill.
The Scion may activate this power at any tick to
immobilize all attacks coming at her and her allies
as well as stunning all enemies around her. Ranged
attacks such as arrows, bullets and magical
projectiles freeze and hover in the air or are snuffed
out. Melee attackers are temporarily frozen in place
and become unable to move and any attacks they
made this tick fails.
All enemies within 5 meters per dot of Legend she
has are stunned for three ticks and they lose dice
equal to the Scion's dots in Legend to their next
action after they have thawed.
This boon counts as a perfect defense and a
character may only activate one perfect defense per
scene. She is however not required to activate this
boon on a tick when she herself is being attacked
but can activate it to protect one of her allies or
simply to stun all her enemies. However the Scion
uses the boon, it still counts as her perfect defense
for the scene.
85
Frost
GOD Ymir’s Hand
Cost: 25 legend + 1 willpower
Type: Simple
The Scion creates a supernatural cold snap,
plunging temperatures far below freezing in a
metropolis sized area around her. Snow falls and
frost envelops the land around her as the land
slowly starts turning into a lifeless wasteland of
snow and ice. Few creatures can live in such a harsh
environment and if allowed to remain the boon will
eventually snuff out most animal and plant life in
the area. GOD Ymir's Hand lasts until the Scion
either halts the boon or she dies.
The Scion rolls (Intelligence or Wits)+Occult and
notes the result. Anyone who enters the area must
succeed on a Stamina+Fortitude roll against the
Scion's activation roll or suffer the negative effects.
Anyone who fails his roll has the Speed of all
actions taken increased by 1 and loses 1 dice to all
physical actions for each success he was missing
compared to the Scion's activation roll but
proximity to a heat source like a camp fire(if it can
be started) will temporarily negate this effect. The
Scion may shield any number of her allies from the
cold.
GOD Frozen Heart
Cost: 10 legend
Type: Simple
The Scion either touches or locks eyes with a
person and steals the strongest emotion that person
is experiencing at the moment. A willful rebel would
have his defiance stolen, a coward would be free of
his fear, an extremist could be separated from his
hate and a young couple could become devoid of
love. The stolen emotion appears as an icy crystal in
the Scion's hand with a dancing inner light where
the emotion resides.
The Scion rolls (Intelligence or Wits)+Occult
against the target's Wits+Integrity. If she is
successful the emotion is stolen and the target
becomes unable to feel that emotion. The target's
emotion is only ever returned to him if the crystal
holding it is shattered.

AVATAR Ice Queen

Whenever the Scion makes a social or mental roll

improved by, or part of, a Frost boon she counts her
5s and 6s as successes on the roll. Moreover, her

target and not only the currently strongest emotion.

AVATAR Absolute Zero

The ice conjured by the Scion hardens to become

nearly indestructible. Any attack done with ice
conjured by the Scion adds extra damage dice(that
does not count toward the damage dice cap) to the
attack. Ice barriers crafted with DEMIGOD Ice
Sculptor has its hardness doubled and the Scion's
DEMIGOD Embrittle now reduces the object's
hardness to one quarter of its normal value.

Any penalties to DV or physical actions levied by

small nation or a state within a larger nation.

scorching her enemies with every blow. For one
scene, all the Scion's attack(melee or ranged) have
their minimum damage increased by two including
any burning damage done by any fire boons.
Burning damage is considered a separate damage
source and checks for minimum damage
independently from the main attack that caused the
burn.
This boon can be activated without taking an action
to do so.
DEMIGOD Flickering Flame
Cost: 3 legend
Type: Reflexive
The Scion’s body becomes partly immaterial and
dances back and forth like a flickering flame. Until
she next refreshes her action, the Scion adds half
her Legend to her DV.
DEMIGOD Flame Travel
Cost: 3 legend or 6 legend
Type: Simple
The Scion takes a deliberate step through a fire
sustained by her HERO Blessed Flame and steps
out of another one. Both flames must be large
enough for her body to pass(or crawl) through. It
costs 3 legend unless traveling between worlds, then
it costs 6 legend. Any person passing through a
Blessed Flame in this manner is protected from it
and takes no damage.
DEMIGOD After Burn
Cost: 3 legend
Type: Reflexive
The Scion coats her attack with volatile ichor that
ignites her target upon impact. This boon is paid for
and activated before rolling to attack, if the attack
hits the Scion rolls for damage as normal but notes
the amount of health levels the attack did. When she
next refreshes her action, the target takes the same
damage again as unsoakable levels of Lethal
damage. This is a magical flame that will burn under
water as well as in the vacuum of space.
DEMIGOD Inferno
Cost: 6 legend
Type: Simple, Area Effect, Unavoidable
The Scion ignites a large area around her, turning
lush forests or brittle houses to roaring infernos.
The Scion rolls (Strength or Intelligence)+Occult
and ignites an area with a radius in yards equal to
the successes rolled. When activated a magic heat
wave bursts from the Scion and does dice of lethal
damage equal to twice her Legend rating to
everyone in the radius except for herself. This
damage cannot be incerased by attributes or any
powers. This damage is unavoidable but is soaked
as normal.
Further everyone in range must roll their
Stamina+Fortitude against the successes on the
activation roll. If unsuccessful they will be lit on fire
and take dice of lethal damage equal to the Scion's
Legend rating every time they refresh their tick
until doused(soak and minimum damage rules apply
as normal). If this attack hits a target that is already
burning, it adds the Scion's Legend to its presoak
damage instead.
The heat wave created by Inferno is magical but the
fires that are created because of it are mundane in
nature.
DEMIGOD Flame Eater
Cost: 1 Willpower
Type: Simple
The Scion can consume flames, taking its power for
her own to fuel her abilities. The Scion draws the
essence of fire from a mundane flame into herself,
snuffing out the flame in process. The amount of
legend regained depends on the size of the flame. A
candle gives 1 legend, a big campfire 6 legend and a
room set on fire 12 legend but a Scion cannot gain
more legend points per activation than her Legend
rating. She may consume the flame of many smaller
fires in a room and count them as a larger source of
flame, e.g. eating the flames from a room full of
candles may count as a large campfire or more,

depending on the amount of candles. The boon can
reach 3 meters per the Scion’s Legend rating.
GOD Living Flame
Cost: 7 legend
Type: Simple
The Scion focuses for a moment and senses all the
flames around her. After activating this boon she
takes control of all nearby fires, commanding them
any she may please. The flames snake around
objects, rise to form walls or become tendrils
crawling up solid stone walls. This boon has a reach
of 100 meters around the Scion. While
supernatural, the flames can be doused by mundane
means which is why Scions usually seeds a roaring
inferno first to make sure any mortal attempts to
snuff her flames takes hours rather than minutes.
While it is active the Scion may, as a free action,
every tick either fan or snuff up to 10 square meters
of flames around her. Fanning the flames spreads
the fire to cover twice the area it normally would
have and snuffing the flame completely turns it out.
Moreover, she may for no cost take a Miscellaneous
Action to focus her attention to the flames which
lets her control flames up to 30 square meters
instead.
The Scion may also make a projectile attack her
enemies with the flames. These are ranged attacks
in two forms. One taken as a free action and the
other when focusing solely on controlling the
flames. Attacking with the free action imposes no
multiple action penalties. The Scion may not attack
with both the free and the focused action during the
same action. The attack is resolved as a projectile
attack with attack being rolled with (Dexterity or
Perception)+Marksmanship and damage rolled with
Perception.
If the attack hits the target must roll their
Stamina+Fortitude against the successes on the
activation roll. If unsuccessful they will be lit on fire
and take dice of lethal damage equal to the Scion's
Legend rating every time they refresh their tick
until doused(soak and minimum damage rules apply
as normal). If this attack hits a target that is already
burning, it adds the Scion's Legend to its presoak
damage instead.

for a short time until their fire, and life, is finally
snuffed out. They fight for the Scion as a swarm
with the stats detailed below. Moreover, the
mortal’s body counts as a Blessed Flame and the
Scion can use HERO Blessed Flame to see through
his eyes and speak through his mouth or use
DEMIGOD Flame Travel to travel through his
body. The latter kills the mortal, turning him into
ash.

GOD Rain of Fire
Cost: 12 legend
Type: Simple, Area Effect, Unavoidable
The Scion reaches to the heavens and calls down a
rain of burning meteors and ash. The Scion and her
closest allies are shielded from the effect but
everyone else within a hundred meters takes two
times the Scion’s Legend as lethal damage, soaked
as normal, every time they refresh their action
within the rain. Meteors keep falling for 2 actions
plus one additional action for every 10 successes
rolled on a (Wits or Intelligence)+Occult roll when
activating the boon.
The meteors are unavoidable but people who are
underneath shelter, such as inside a building or
underneath a magical shield safe from the meteors
but still have to contend with the fires they leave
behind. All directly hit by the meteors must also roll
their Stamina+Fortitude against the successes on
Fire

the activation roll. If unsuccessful they will be lit on
fire and take dice of lethal damage equal to the
Scion's Legend rating every time they refresh their
tick until doused(soak and minimum damage rules
apply as normal). If this attack hits a target that is
already burning, it adds the Scion's Legend to its
presoak damage instead.
The meteors are smoldering hot and will crush and
burn whatever they impact. If used in an area
abundant in flammable materials such as a forest or
a city they will quickly create a roaring inferno. The
meteors that pour down range in size from a shot
glass to car, all though the vast majority of them are
fairly small.
The Scion must have direct line of sight to the sky
in order to activate this boon.

from all slashing, piercing or crushing attacks unless
she is being attacked with water or freezing attacks.
Damage from explosions, electrocutions or similar
do normal damage. Her fiery body is malleable and
can twist and squeeze through small openings or
tight passageways like through a chain fence, the
cracks of a door or similar small openings. Her
unarmed attacks do Lethal damage instead of
Bashing.
Moreover, any temporary fire creatures she creates
that would normally burn out and die after a while,
like those created with GOD Ifrit, live forever as
supernatural beings.

The Scion can sense any flame within a 5 kilometer

radius and use all of them as if they were her
Blessed Flames. Her area of effect fire boons like
DEMIGOD Inferno and GOD Rain of Fire have
double their normal radius.

AVATAR The Devourer

Cost: None
Type: Passive

Any persistent burning damage caused by the

Scion, such as the lingering burn caused by
DEMIGOD Inferno and GOD Living Flame, is
doubled and now does Aggravated damage instead
of Lethal. This effect is also active for other sources
of fire caused by the Scion such as a flame thrower
or a fire bomb. Any environmental fire she starts is
likewise empowered, doing double damage as
 Guardian
The Scion is a protector of people, places or ideas. A Scion with Guardian keeps the vigil, stands steadfast
and accepts no trespassers. A Scion with the Guardian purview can lay down protective marks on people or
places, intercept deadly blows in combat and magically appear at first sign of danger.
New Keyword: Vigil Brand
These boons can only activate on beings branded by
the Scion's HERO Vigil Brand. All brands laid
down by the same Scion look alike and when the
Scion first purchases HERO Vigil Brand she must
choose the symbol that represents her protection.
For example the leader of a biker gang may have a
red fist as his symbol while an aztlanti known for
accepting blood sacrifices from the tongues of her
worshippers may have a brand resembling two lips
and a needle. The exact aesthetics of the brand is up
to the player.
HERO Vigil Brand
Cost: 1 legend
Type: Simple, Vigil Brand
The Scion touches a person, an item, a structure or
an entrance and lays a mystical brand that marks
the target as being under the Scion’s protection, this
costs 1 legend. Thereafter, whenever the target is in
danger the Brand triggers and the Scion gets an
immediate intuition that something is amiss. Danger
for a person means either being under attack or
being under severe emotional duress. Coercion and
threats of violence typically triggers the effect and
so too does any social or mental attack that triggers
an emotional duress. However, if the target does not
realize that she is being influenced and remains
unperturbed the Scion is not informed of any wrong
doing.
For a an entrance the brand triggers when it is
unlawfully entered, for an item when it is stolen and
for any inanimate object when it is being damaged.
To brand a person the Scion must first touch her
intended ward and if he is unwilling and does not
wish to be branded, the Scion must win a contested
91
(Intelligence or Wits)+Occult roll against the
target's Stamina+Fortitude.
The brands last until the Scion wills them anyway,
which she can do from anywhere in Creation. It can
also be dispelled with boons like DEMIGOD
Divine Unweaving. The Scion can maintain a
number of brands equal to two times her Legend
rating.
Moreover, the Scion can for 1 legend check up on
the wearer of one of her brands to see how they are
doing. She gets an estimate of what physical
condition they are in as well as direction and
distance from the Scion herself. If the wearer of the
brand is in a different world form the Scion all she
learns from the the check up is a sense of what
world the wearer is in.
HERO Intervene
Cost: 1 legend
Type: Reflexive
When an ally is the target of a physical attack(but
not when rolling for control of a clinch) and the
Scion can reach the ally with her normal Move, she

incoming attack, taking the hit for him. The boon
must be activated after the enemy declares his
attack but before the attack pool is rolled and the
Scion must be able to perceive the attack to activate
Intervene. The attack is resolved as if the attacker
was attacking the Scion and rolls against her DVs.
If the attack is a multiple attack action, the Scion
intervenes all of the attacks. In the case of Area
Effect attacks it is up to the Storyteller if the attack
can be intervened. A rain of arrows can be blocked
with Intervene, but a poison gas cloud or an
electrical storm cannot.

Join Battle phase of combat.

bonus DV while defending the designated area. The
bonus DV gained counts to the DV cap as usual.

attack through it and must step outside of it to
combat any enemies there.

Brand is the subject of a supernatural social or

and may choose to shelter her charge's spirit by

the intended target's. If the attack succeeds in spite
of this, the attack affects the original target and not
the Scion.

mind. The attacker's ichor burns and he loses as
many legend points as the Scion has dots in Legend

The Scion proclaims herself to be the eternal
guardian of a domain such as a place, a people or a
cause. Thereafter she can use all her guardian boons
on every person and place within her domain as if
they was wearing her Vigil Brand.
When purchasing this boon the Storyteller and the
Player must agree on the size and nature of the
domain that she is proclaiming her guardianship
over. A guardian's domain should not be so widely
defined as to make other domains useless. It is
legitimate to be the protector of mothers, the poor,
deer or the USA, but as the protector of the USA
you are not automatically also the protector of the
mothers, poor and deer who live in the country.
Rather you are the protector of the concept of the
USA, the country's sovereignty, it's founding
principles, it's institutions and the american way of
life.

the ‘L’ property or not.

boon an action that rolls one of the physical

Intelligence)+Medicine and tends to the target for

should not be possible. The two people, one of
which needs to be a able to carry the child, must
touch and the Scion may be one of these people.

fertilized as long as there are no supernatural
barriers in place to halt pregnancy. This boon could
create pregnancy with a holding of hands or a kiss
without any sex taking place. It can also make
pregnancies occur between same-sex couples or, if
the Scion is so inclined, across different species such
as a human and a bull.
Health
GOD Partake the Divine
Cost: 20 legend + 4 aggravated damage
Type: Simple
By sacrificing her own ichor the Scion can infuse
part of her divinity into another human and
granting him a portion of it. The main use of this
power is to turn mortals into overworld humans but
it can also be used to guarantee that the offspring of
two Scions becomes a Scion as well.
When turning a mortal into an overworld human he
gains a Legend rating of 2 and the first dot of the
epic attribute in his five most proficient attributes as
well as a hero level knack in each of them. Like
other supernatural beings he has 5 points of legend
per dot of Legend rating to activate powers but he
cannot learn purviews. He does not become a Scion
and cannot be visited by the Scion that made him
into an overworld human.
Like all overworld humans his age span is much
longer and older overworld humans may have
higher Legend ratings but they can never be higher
than Legend 4. If two overworld humans mate their
offspring is guaranteed to become overworld human
as well.
If she blesses the unborn child of two Scion parents
where neither have reached godhood, their child is
guaranteed to be born as a Scion instead of
becoming an overworld human. The child does not
become the Scion of the Scion that cast this boon
but remains the child of its biological parents.

grievous wounds and crippling injuries. With

make necrotic flesh alive again and even regrow
missing limbs.
The Scion tends to the patient for 10 minutes and
rolls (Wits or Intelligence)+Medicine against a
difficulty of one per level of aggravated damage the
target has taken. For every three threshold
successes the Scion scores she converts one level of
aggravated damage to lethal damage. If her roll
allows her to heal all of the target's aggravated
damage she fully heals all his damage(including any
bashing or lethal damage) instead of just converting
aggravated to lethal.
GOD Divine Apothecary
Cost: 10 legend + 1 willpower
Type: Simple
With some minor magical materials there is no
ailments the Scion's potions can't cure and no state
of body or mind that she cannot induce. The Scion
becomes a master apothecary and can make drugs
to achieve many different effects.
The Scion selects the effect she wants the drug to
have from the list below, spends 4 hours working,
supplies the one batch of grade one magical
material, pays the activation cost and rolls (Wits or
Intelligence)+Medicine and creates one batch of the
drug plus an additional batch for every 5 threshold
successes scored on the roll. The magical material
has to be physical in nature and non-physical
materials such Tsukumogami cannot be used with
this boon.
It must not be a brew that the Scion produces but it
could also be a bundle of incense, a pill, a salve or
ointment. The delivery method of the drug has no
game play implications when using this boon.
The list of effects below is not exhaustive and the
player and the storyteller could agree on other
effects.
Eternal Youth - The imbiber's body is returned to
his youthful vigor and he adds fifty years to his life
span.
Retrograde Amnesia - The imbiber rolls his
Wits+Integrity at a difficulty of twice the Scion's
Legend rating. If she fails her roll she becomes
unable to consciously recall any of her memories
but automatic skills and muscle memory such as
speech, playing the piano, crafting or perhaps even
sword fighting will be retained. The person could
however go a lifetime without knowing about their
abilities if they never had reason to try them. This is
a magical effect that can be dispelled with abilities
like DEMIGOD Divine Unweaving.

Spirit Walking - The imbiber's soul is gently
detached from her body and she can explore the
immaterial realm safely for a while. If she has not
returned to her body for 24 hours her body takes
one level of aggravated damage for every hour
thereafter. If the body dies the imbiber becomes a
ghost and becomes subject to the pull of Tartarus
but does not lose permanent willpower as normal
ghosts do at the moment of death.
Purification - The imbiber’s body is cleansed and
any diseases he is infected with is driven out by the
Scion’s divine medication. The Scion rolls her (Wits
or Intelligence)+Medicine and adds automatic
successes equal to her Legend rating against the
Infectivity of the disease. If the roll is successful the
disease is driven from the imbiber's body. If he is
infected with multiple diseases the Scion's player
rolls against each disease separately.
Mind Expansion - The imbiber's mind expands and
begins to perceive reality in previously unseen
ways. He may see auras around other people, hear
their surface thoughts, perceive the Hundun's
chaotic machinations emanating from the unformed
overworld or the clockwork like structure of Logos
permeating the middle world. He may be able to see
radio waves, smell radiation or something else
entirely. For a few hours the imbiber is at -5 dice
and -5 DV when interacting with the physical world
but gains extra dice(that do not count toward the
bonus dice cap) equal to the Scion’s Legend rating
when engaging in any creative or intellectual
activity.
Potency - The Scion's player names an attribute
when selecting this effect. For 24 hours the imbiber
gains dots in this attribute equal to half the Scion's
Legend rating.
Avatar powers
For each Avatar boon the Scion purchases, she is
permanently locked out from one of Health’s
antithetical purviews, Affliction and Death. The
Scion cannot purchase more than two Avatar
powers in the same purview.
AVATAR The Savior
Cost: None
Type: Passive
99
Health
The Scion's HERO Bolster grants twice the
amount of health levels, her HERO Feel No Pain
negates twice as many penalty dice and her
DEMIGOD Invigorate grants twice the amount of
rerolls. Finally DEMIGOD Lay on Hands and her
GOD Guan Yin's Mercy can for one additional
willpower affect everyone within 1 meter per dot of
Legend she has.
AVATAR Panacea
Cost: None
Type: Passive
The Scion counts 5s and 6s as successes on all her
Medicine rolls. Once the Scion has absorbed
enough doses to activate DEMIGOD Touch of
Salvation she can reproduce that medicine forever.
AVATAR The Everliving
Cost: None
Type: Passive
Upon learning this boon the Scion cuts the
connection between her soul and Tartarus and her
soul no longer feels its pull. Upon dying the Scions
soul seemingly vanishes and does not become a
ghost. It is unknown where the soul goes in this
state but even the elder gods agree that it is
impossible to track without it’s tie to Tartarus.
Onlookers could mistakingly assume that the soul
traveled to the underworld quicker than they could
see it but they would be wrong. The soul travels the
immaterial realm on its own in search of a new,
uninhabited vessel typically that of an unborn
child(or animal if the Scion is so inclined).
The vessel must be compatible with the Scion's soul
and the Scion's subconscious must feel at home in
the new vessel. Perhaps the child must be of the
correct racial heritage, be in the correct country or
place, have the right type of parent or so on, the
correct gender and so on. Some Scion's are more
discerning than others and finding a compatible
vessel could take days, decades or even centuries.
Once the soul finds a worthy vessel it attaches itself
to the unborn child and the child will therefor not
receive a new soul upon taking its first breath like it
normally does.
Health

The reborn Scion has near total memory loss and it

is not until adolescence the Scion truly begins to
remember her previous life and all her abilities,
powers and stats return to her as they were before
she died. Characters that can see magical flows with
abilities like HERO Unlidded Eye can see that the
Scion's soul is brimming with hidden potential if
they succeed on a Perception+Occult roll at
difficulty 30.

The Scion's persona will be reminiscent of the

personality her previous incarnation had but will be
influenced by the experiences of her current
incarnation even after her memories and powers
return to her and her personality may change
somewhat after every reincarnation.

Even among the elder gods, there is no known ways

to truly kill or to stop the reincarnation of a creature
that have cut their ties to Tartarus with this boon
other than eternal imprisonment. But even in
prison, death will be an escape for the Scion who
would reemerge in later decades to exact revenge on
her enemies.
 Illusion
Illusion is the purview of the trickster, the charlatan and the scoundrel. A Scion with the Illusion purview
can create sights and sound were none exist, fool a persons senses and make him believe that something is
happening when nothing is. Masters of Illusion can even fool creation itself, making their own temporary
truths as they go along. Illusion is common among the tricksters and liars and also has a connection to Chaos
itself.
BOX: Seeing Through Illusions
Illusions are powerful magics that fool the senses of
the beholder but they aren’t all powerful and they
can be seen through. The beholder may roll to see
through an Illusion if they suspect that a specific
object or person is an illusion or has reason to
believe that the object or person are not what they
seem to be. When suspicion has been roused the
beholder may roll Wits+Integrity against the
activation roll of the person casting the illusion and
if they succeed the illusion fails before their eyes.
Moreover, if she tells any onlooker that what lies
before them is actually an illusion then the illusion
fails for everyone else as well but she must first have
seen through the illusion herself to do this.
If the illusion has no activation roll its creator may
roll (Manipulation or Intelligence)+Presence once
to determine the strength of the illusion.
HERO Monkey King’s Guile
Cost: 3 legend
Type: Simple
The Scion creates immaterial copies of herself,
confusing her enemies and allowing her to hide in
plain sight.
Spending one action focusing and paying the cost of
3 legend the Scion creates an amount of copies of
herself equal to her dots in Legend. These copies
cannot act independently and are immaterial
illusions and will serve to confuse her foes.
The copies perform roughly the same action as the
Scion. Running away, hiding, distracting the
enemy, talking in unison(or for example one word
101
per copy, round-robin style) or attacking the same
target. As long there are copies of the Scion
remaining she gains half her dots of Legend as DV
when defending and any target she is attacking
loses the same amount of DV. Every time she
performs an attack or defends against an attack one
of her copies disappear. Multiple attack actions will
remove multiple copies from the Scion.
HERO The Subtle Knife
Cost: 1 legend / item
Type: Simple
The Scion conceals an object no larger than a
human being. She pays the cost and rolls
(Manipulation or Intelligence)+Larceny and notes
the successes. Anyone who is actively looking for
the item may roll Wits+Integrity against the
successes on the Scion's activation roll to see it. Size
does not matter for the item that is hidden. It works
just as well with a Faberge egg carried in a pocket
as it does with a rocket launcher strapped on one's
back.
HERO Stolen Face
Cost: 2 legend
Type: Simple
The Scion copies a person's appearance and
deceives onlookers in believing that she is someone
else. She may disguise herself as any person she has
a clear mental image of or she may confabulate an
appearance from her imagination. The Scion pays
the cost, rolls (Manipulation or
Intelligence)+Presence and notes the successes. If
she prior to activating the boon dons a simple piece
Illusion
of disguise, a wig, a hat or some make up, she gains
2 additional successes on the roll.
This Illusion not only affects the visual appearance
of the Scion but also changes her voice, her scent
and even her touch.
Moreover, the Illusion also covers small personal
effects like ID cards, security badges or company
cell phones. Though they are still illusions and don't
function like the items that they are mimicking, the
display of a cell phone looks like a display and you
can swipe through your photo collection, but it can't
take an actual photo any more than it can make a
phone call.
Any onlooker that has reason to believe that the
Scion is not who she is making herself out to be gets
to roll Wits+Integrity to see through the effect.
HERO Split Mind
Cost: 2 legend
Type: Simple
By merely looking at her victim, the Scion implants
visions and voices into his mind, making him see
and hear things that aren't real. What the victim
experiences is dependent on his current state of
mind. A tranquil person might see a loved one or
hear the sound of soothing music while a fearful
person might be further terrified my terrifying
screams and creeping shadows.
The Scion rolls (Manipulation or
Intelligence)+Presence against the target's
Wits+Integrity. If successful, the victim loses dice
on any Perception roll equal to the Scion's Legend
rating for one scene. Realizing that the
hallucinations are not real does not remove this dice
penalty.
DEMIGOD Vanishing Act
Cost: 3 legend + 1 willpower
Type: Reflexive, Perfect Defense
Facing a superior foe the Scion can still rely on her
knack for deception to survive. When an enemy
strikes a Scion with this boon all he will be left with
is a whiff of smoke, a fading phantom image or a
blurred copy of the Scion.
This boon can be activated when struck by any
physical attack(social and mental effects can not be
evaded) and the Scion’s body is immediately
replaced with a phantom copy of herself. Attacks
pass through it and it fades after a second or two.
This effectively avoids all attacks levied against her
during that tick.
The Scion herself is whisked away anywhere a
viable dash action could take her. Knacks and other
powers that increase dash length are applicable if
activated. The Trickster does not teleport and has to
be able move to a position she could actually get to
in a dash. If she needs to traverse rough terrain or
climb she needs to roll for doing so as she would in
normal circumstances.
A character can only activate one Perfect Defense
per scene. The Scion may activate this boon without
being attacked but this still counts as her one
Perfect Defense for the scene.
DEMIGOD Dreamcraft
Cost: Varies
Type: Simple
The Scion can weave hallucinations into the minds
of individual targets, imposing a new reality on
them. She rolls (Manipulation or
Intelligence)+Craft with a difficulty depending on
the number of senses affected and the complexity of
the hallucination. If any subject has reason to doubt
the hallucination he rolls Wits+Integrity against the
Scion’s successes. Each activation of Dreamcraft
inflicts one hallucination. e.g. The sky turns green or
a snarling dog charges at the target or the Scion is
not in the room.
The Illusion lasts for one scene and if it has any
changing components in it(like movement, speech,
music or the like) the Scion must concentrate to
maintain them. Each hallucination she is
maintaining puts her at -2 to all actions and DVs.
She may not maintain more hallucinations than she
has dots of Legend and the cost detailed below as to
be paid per hallucination as well as per target.
Legend Cost Illusion Factors
+1 per sense Number of senses affected

Changing entity(a moving car,
+1
fire, music, intelligible speech)
Complex entity (paisley, a
symphony, anything that
+2
interacts significantly with its
environment)
DEMIGOD Loaned Identity
Cost: 5 legend
Type: Simple
The Scion can disguise a person or a significant
object as something else. A fire can look like a
person, a mighty titanspawn can look like a house
cat or a person can simply look as someone else.
The Scion rolls (Manipulation or
Intelligence)+Presence and any person with reason
to believe that what they see is an illusion rolls
Wits+Integrity to see through it.
Loaned identity does not give the subject any
special powers, but a clever Scion can use other
Boons to support the illusion. An item or creature
doing something patently impossible automatically
grants a roll to see through the illusion. Failing the
roll means that the original object is not revealed
but any onlooker still realizes that what they see is
not real.
DEMIGOD Hand of Loki
Cost: 3 legend
Type: Reflexive
This trick was first invented by Loki, the Aesir
trickster god, but quickly spread throughout the
Overworld. The Scion can steal items with a glance,
leaving behind an identical copy of the item. She
focuses on an item that she can perceive that is
within her Legend x 3 meters and pays three legend
and rolls (Dexterity or Intelligence)+Larceny and
after a few moments, the item teleports into the
Scion's hand, leaving behind an Illusion in its place.
She cannot steal anything larger than herself, nor
can she steal anything that his fastened to the
environment(like a wall mounted safe or statue
bolted to the ground) she couldn't easily dislodge
herself. Likewise, she cannot steal anything that
someone else is holding in his hands(but anything
carried on their person is up for grabs).
103
Illusion
If anyone else is in the room during the theft, they
may roll a contested Perception+Awareness roll at
difficulty 5 to notice the theft as it is taking place. If
they succeed, they can see the item being jostled
and if they grab it, the boon fails.
Should the theft go unnoticed, it leaves behind an
illusory replica of the stolen that lasts for 24 hours.
Should anyone have reason to suspect that the
lingering illusion isn't real they may roll
Wits+Integrity against the boons activation roll to
see through the illusion.
DEMIGOD Mentalism
Cost: 5 legend
Type: Social Action
The Scion reaches into the mind of the crowds and
creates the illusion of a memory, causing all to
misremember an event or to remember something
that never happened.
She converses with her targets, who all need to be
able to see and hear the Scion, for at least one
minute and then rolls (Manipulation or
Intelligence)+Presence against the targets’
Wits+Integrity. The Storyteller rolls once for a large
mass of mortals or unnamed characters but any
named character or player character in the mass
rolls individually.
If the Scion is successful she modifies an existing
memory or implants a completely new one in the
minds of her targets. This false memory persists for
24 hours after which it fades.
DEMIGOD Hidden Name
Cost: 4 legend + 1 willpower
Type: Simple
Detection either by magic or by mundane means
presents a problem for tricksters. No one wants to
get rushed down and beaten up by a bunch of angry
gods after performing your latest trick on them. The
Scion senses whenever anyone that is attempting to
locate him either through magical(e.g. The
Messenger boon DEMIGOD Panopticon) or by
mundane means(e.g. looking her up in the national
records). When activated she attempts to hide her
name from Creation itself and any roll to locate the
Illusion
Scion suffers an increased difficulty equal to the
Scion's Legend rating. This effect lasts for 24 hours.
This boon has no effect on ordinary stealth rolls,
like hiding in a barrel, but rather serves to make the
Scion harder to track in the grand scheme of things.
GOD Dream Castle
Cost: 15 legend + 1 willpower
Type: Simple
The Scion conjures up vast, detailed illusions,
covering an entire country side, a small town or the
down town area of a metropolis sized city. The
illusions can be anything, small or big, as long as it
can be contained by the area. Castles, whole
villages, tens of thousands of protesters in the
streets, a space shuttle launch platform, a military
base are all valid illusions. This boon will not only
conjure the illusion of buildings but also any
personnel, equipment or logistics that the location
should reasonably have.
As the Scion pays the cost to activate the boon she
also rolls (Manipulation or Intelligence)+Craft and
notes the result. This Illusion lasts for 24 hours but
can be refreshed at any time. Any onlookers that
have reason to believe that what they're seeing is an
illusion may roll Wits+Integrity against the Scion's
activation roll. It should however be noted that once
a person is inside the Dream Castle, everything they
see is consistent with the environment since
everything is around them is part of the illusion
which makes it much harder than other illusions to
spot any inconsistencies.
GOD Unending Nightmare
Cost: 3 legend per target + 1 willpower
Type: Simple
The Scion sets a number of people into a dream
world where anything is possible and the Scion uses
this dreamworld to tap into the subconscious of her
target in order to dominate, fool or break the will of
her enemies.
When the Nightmare is created, there is no avoiding
it. The Scion’s intended targets will always end up
in the dreamworld, they can however not be
targeted by GOD Unending Nightmare more than
once per day.
While in the Nightmare all conflicts are resolved as
social challenges. The Scion rolls a combination of
attributes and social abilities that fits her goals. E.g.
Manipulation+Investigation to coax out a secret,
Charisma+Presence to dominate,
Manipulation+Presence to feed lies, etc. The
defender rolls Wits+Integrity to defend and if he
defends successfully a total of three times he breaks
the spell and wakes up. The victim however sees his
greatest fears come to life, is forced to relive his
most horrible memories and has his mind assaulted
from all angles.
Each time a victim fails his defense roll, he loses one
point of Willpower and suffer the consequences of
the social action, such as a revealing a secret, being
fooled by a lie, and so on. If his Willpower reaches
zero, he becomes catatonic for the rest of the scene,
unable to take any action.
In the Nightmare seconds become minutes, minutes
becomes hours and hours becomes days. In the real
world the victims stand still staring blankly ahead
and each contested roll in the dreamworld takes
everything from a few moments to minutes in the
real world. The Scion controlling the dreamworld is
at −2 to all actions per person she is keeping in the
dreamworld and must be within her Legend x 10
yards from her targets in order to maintain the spell
and she may break it at will.
If a victim is attacked while in the Nightmare he
immediately wakes up and the attack is treated as
an Unexpected Attack with his DV reduced to 0
but he may otherwise defend himself as normal.
GOD Veil of Ignorance
Cost: 20 legend + 1 willpower
Type: Simple
The Scion rolls (Manipulation or
Intelligence)+Occult and lays down a Veil of
Ignorance affecting everyone in a metropolis sized
area lasting 24 hours. The Scion herself is exempt as
well as any others she wishes to exclude from the
effect. The Veil hides one object, one person or a
type of objects or people from everyone affected by
the Veil and the Scion designates what is to be
hidden when she casts the boon. It can be a single
person like "John Dillinger" or a well defined group
of items like "All yellow fire hydrants" or a group of
people "All children under the age of seven".
 Illusion

Everyone affected by the veil is unable to perceive
the objects shielded by the veil of ignorance and
similar to The Great Veil that hides the supernatural
from mortals, that which is hidden is not necessarily
invisible but the veil might conspire to explain it
away. A hidden child might be completely invisible
to his parents and if he tries banging the walls and
breaking porcelain his parents may perceive it as an
earthquake or some other event. A hidden fire
hydrant that starts leaking could be construed as a
faulty water pipe underneath the street or simply as
rain, and so on.
Any affected that has reason to believe that what
they're seeing isn't completely true may roll
Wits+Integrity against the activation roll of the
boon. If she succeeds, she breaks free from the
effects of the veil and is not affected by it anymore.
Her allies however have to succeed with their own
Wits+Integrity roll to break free on their own but
pointing out the Illusion allows them to roll their
own mental defense roll.
The Scion can only have one Veil of Ignorance
active at a time.
Avatar powers
The Scion has the option to spend an additional
willpower point when crafting an illusion to fool
not only the onlookers but Creation itself and
function as if they were real for their duration.
Illusory cellphones can connect calls, conjured
swords can cut flesh and candles can start house
fires. Living beings, be they supernatural or
mundane, that are conjured this way does not
receive a soul but their outward behavior is
indistinguishable from the real thing.
However, she cannot conjure supernatural beings
beyond Legend 4 nor can she conjure any magical
materials or relics.
When a defendant succeeds on a Wits+Integrity roll
the illusion can no longer affect her or may
disappear all together.
This Avatar boon only affects Illusions that exist in
the world(illusions that everyone can see) and not
on illusions that only exists in the minds of one or a
few persons. For example it functions on HERO
Stolen Face or DEMIGOD Loaned Identity but
not HERO Split Mind or GOD Unending
Nightmare. Moreover, powers that make items
invisible or undetectable are not affected by this
boon.

For each Avatar boon the Scion purchases, she is

permanently locked out from one of Illusion's
antithetical purviews, Order and Artifice. The Scion
cannot purchase more than two Avatar powers in
the same purview.
AVATAR The Show Must Go On
AVATAR Weaver of Lies
The Scion weaves nearly perfect Illusions, nearly
impossible to see through. She thinks of every
possible inconsistency and embellishes every detail.
The activation roll of all her Illusion boons now
count 5s and 6s on the dice as a success.

The Scion's Illusion boons now last indefinitely.

Only canceled when Scion chooses to do so or when
dispelled by anti magic. If neither happens they last
forever and even persist through the Scion’s death.

For DEMIGOD Vanishing Act the Scion remains

invisible not for one Dash action but until she
chooses to end the effect. Performing an attack
cancels the effect but the Scion must roll
Dexterity+Stealth versus the target's
Perception+Awareness in order for the attack to be
an Unexpected Attack but she receives her Legend
rating as automatic successes on this roll.

AVATAR All The World's a Stage

105
 Moon
The gods and the Moon have a special connection dating back to the titanomachi. Ruled over by Luna, the
Moon is a focus of great magical power channeled by the different phases of the Moon as it relates to the
Earth. Calling on the ancient pacts signed by Luna and the gods, Scions can call upon the power of the moon
to shield herself, remain hidden, to gain mystical insights or to channel its raw magical powers.
New Keyword: Lunar Command
Boons carrying the Lunar Command keyword have
different effects depending on what phase the Moon
is currently in but can also change the phase of the
Moon in a metropolis sized area around her for one
scene. If the boon has a base legend cost of at least 4
this may done for free when activating the boon but
can otherwise be done by spending 4 legend as a
simple action(Speed 6).
The Moon changes phase in the sky above the
Scion and if it is not up it appears in the sky day or
night. This power does not change the actual
position of the Moon as it is orbiting the Earth.
Instead it fetches the light and the metaphysical
presence of the Moon and places it in the sky above
the Scion and with it comes the mystical powers
associated with the lunar phases. Therefor, Lunar
Command boons can activated even in other worlds
where the Moon does not exist.
An area can only have one lunar phase overlooking
it and all Moon boons will gain the benefits of that
phase. If she, or someone else, changes the phase of
the Moon then the effect of all her and any active
Moon boons shift its effect to adhere to the new
phase.
If the Moon’s phase has already been changed by a
Lunar Command boon and a second Scion attempts
to change it to another phase he must pay for the
attempt and then the two Scions make a contested
roll (Wits or Intelligence)+Legend roll to see whose
lunar phase prevails.
It should be noted that these boons only have power
over the Moon orbiting the Earth and no other
Moons in the solar system or elsewhere.
BOX: What Phase is the Moon Now?
106
If the phase of the moon hasn’t been defined in the
story yet the Storyteller can either decide its phase
for herself or can roll a d10 to determine the current
phase of the moon. 1-2 signifies a new moon, 3-8
means the moon is changing while 9-0 means the
moon is full.
HERO Lunar Inspiration
Cost: None
Type: Passive
The Scion can always sense where the Moon is in
relation to the Earth, what phase it is in and when it
will rise and set. Moreover, if she during night time
has direct line of sight to the Moon(even if the
Moon is new) she may muse on its presence for 15
minutes to expand the size of her legend pool by 1
point per dot she has in Legend rating(these points
come filled and ready to use). This expanded pool
persists until the moon sets or the sun rises.
HERO Phase Strike
Cost: 2 or 4 legend
Type: Supplemental, Lunar Command
The Scion infuses her attack with the strength of
the Moon and borrows the properties of the current
lunar phase to augment her attack. This boon costs
2 legend to use normally but can for 2 additional
legend also change the phase of the Moon.
New Moon: The attack unbalances the target and
he suffers double Onslaught Penalty from the
attack. Applies to all attacks if supplementing a
multiple attack action.
Changing Moon: The Scion attacks from unseen
angles and gains bonus dice equal to her dots in
Legend to the attack roll.

Full Moon: The Scion’s weapon becomes partly
ethereal and passes through armor. The attack gains
the Piercing property and ignores half of the target’s
external armor.
HERO Eye of Artemis
Cost: 4 legend
Type: Simple, Lunar Command
The Scion’s takes a glimmer of the Moon’s light and
blesses her own eye sight with it. For one scene she
gains bonus dice to all sight based, non combat
Perception rolls equal to her dots in Legend and an
extra effect dependent on the phase of the Moon.
New Moon: The Scion may spend a few moments
to focus her vision(Speed 3, -0 DV) and may then
see through an inanimate object such as a wall or a
barrier.
Changing Moon: The Scion also gains 1 bonus dice
per dot of Legend she has to all Join Battle and all
rolls to detect danger such as unexpected attacks,
traps or similar.
Full Moon: The light of the full Moon guides the
Scion’s ranged attacks to fly true. The bonus dice is
also added to any Perception based attack roll.
HERO Clarity of Mind
Cost: None
Type: Passive
The pale Moonlight clears the Scion’s mind, it fills
her with wisdom and strengthens her resolve. She
gains bonus dice equal to half her dots in
Legend(rounded up) to actions correlating to the
current phase of the Moon.
New Moon: The Scion gains bonus dice to all
knowledge based rolls.
Changing Moon: The Scion gains bonus dice to all
mental or social defense rolls.
Full Moon: The Scion gains bonus dice to all social
influence rolls.
DEMIGOD The Flow of Magic
Cost: 4 legend + 1 willpower
Type: Simple, Lunar Command
107
Moon
The Scion’s ichor becomes attuned to the mystical
powers of the Moon and ebbs and flows with its
phases and her ability to weave magic from ichor is
empowered for one scene.
New Moon: The Scion opens up her senses to
perceive all the magical forces at work around her.
She can roughly determine how strong the magic is
by the intensity of its light but can otherwise not
determine the exact potency of relics or
supernatural beings. This effect does not see
through illusions and the Scion is at -4 dice to all
actions involving sight and at -4 DV while the effect
lasts.
Changing Moon: All the Scion’s knacks and boon
activations cost 2 less. Cannot lower costs below 1.
Full Moon: The Scion gains bonus dice to all boon
and knack activation rolls equal to her Legend
rating.
DEMIGOD Phase Cloak
Cost: 4 legend
Type: Simple, Lunar Command
The Scion lets the subtlety of the Moon weave the
light around her, making her nigh invisible. The
light passes around the Scion making her a but a
transparent blur. With this boon active she may roll
for stealth even when standing in plain sight of any
onlookers and any attempt to spot her has its
difficulty increased by half her dots in
Legend(rounded up).
The ability to see magical fields does not aid in
spotting the cloaked Scion but using a non visual
sense ignores the increased difficulty normally
imposed by this boon. Attacking or taking damage
cancels the invisibility. Even when spotted the
Scion can’t be identified until the effect is canceled.
New Moon: When standing still the increased
difficulty to spot her increases to her full Legend
rating.
Changing Moon: Her movement speed is doubled,
she suffers no penalty to stealth rolls for moving or
running and she gains her Legend rating as extra
damage dice(that does not count toward the bonus
dice cap) when rolling for damage with an
Unexpected Attack.
Full Moon: If engaged in combat the cloak persists
but instead grants half her dots in Legend(rounded
up) as bonus DV. The Scion appears as translucent
blur and cannot be identified while the cloak holds.
Moon
During the full Moon the cloak will only be
cancelled upon unconsciousness or death.
DEMIGOD Lunacy
Cost: 5 legend
Type: Simple
The Scion either touches a person or if the person is
in direct line of sight to the Moon she need only
look at him. The boon infuses his mind with the
mercurial nature of the Moon, changing his mood in
different ways depending on the Moon’s phase. The
Scion rolls (Manipulation or Intelligence)+Presence
against the target’s Wits+Integrity. If he fails his
personality is completely changed for one scene.
This change can be subtle or overt depending on the
target’s personality before being affected by this
boon. He is still capable of rational thought but his
entire line of thinking colored by the effects of this
boon.
New Moon: The target becomes sorrowful, listless
and forlorn. Nothing carries any significance to him
and he seeks solitude to deliberate on the state of
the world at large.
Changing Moon: The target becomes the opposite
of what he normally is. A thoughtful person
becomes rash and impulsive, a compassionate
person becomes cruel and reckless while a brave
person becomes cowardly and risk averse.
Full Moon: The target becomes defensive,
aggressive, passionate and is likely to seek out both
violence and sexual encounters wherever he can
find them.
DEMIGOD Mark of the Moon
Cost: 2 legend
Type: Supplemental
The Scion’s attack marks her foe with a lunar brand
visible only to herself and those that can perceive
magical effects. The mark shines brightly and is
visible through any wall or barrier that does not
stop magical effects, allowing the Scion to track her
target for the duration of the mark. Every attack
made against a marked target grants 2 bonus dice to
the attack roll and 2 bonus dice to the damage roll
and the Scion can stack multiple marks on the same
target for an increased effect.
The mark lasts for one scene and can also be
applied with a gentle touch.
DEMIGOD Silver Arrow
Cost: 3 legend
Type: Simple
The Scion channels the magic of the Moon into a
shot she takes with a ranged weapon such as a bow,
a sling or a rifle. The weapon requires no
ammunition to fire and will instead fire a silvery
streak that passes through walls.
The silver arrow gains bonus damage dice equal to
the Scion’s dots in Legend and passes through all
walls and barriers without harming them(unless
that is what the Scion intends to shoot). Cover
offers no benefit when defending against the silver
arrow and the Scion can often line up unexpected
attacks by attacking her enemies through solid
walls. The projectile itself looks is an ethereal, white
version of the projectile that weapon normally
would’ve shot(an arrow for a bow, a bullet for a
rifle, etc). It persists for a few moments after having
struck its target and then fades.
DEMIGOD Eye of Thoth
Cost: 5 legend
Type: Simple
The Scion closes her eyes and borrows the sight of
the Moon. She gains a bird's eye view of the Earth
as seen from the Moon's current position. The boon
will grant sight from the Moon's true position or
from any metaphysical moon light conjured by any
of the Scion's Lunar Command boons.
If the skies are clear the Scion can see all the way
down to the surface and can make out individual
houses, cars and even people but she can only focus
on a city block at a time. As her visual acuity
increases with knacks and dots of Epic Perception
she will be able to focus on larger and larger areas
of land at the same time.

GOD Luna’s Wrath
Cost: 1 willpower + 1 legend/damage dice
Type: Ranged Attack
The Scion overflows with magical forces and
channels an incandescent beam of raw magical
power directly into her target’s body, disintegrating
matter and causing irreparable damage to his body
and soul.
This attack counts as a ranged projectile attack with
an accuracy of 4, the attack roll is made with
(Dexterity or Perception)+Marksmanship and the
target defends with his DV. The damage of the
attack ignores all external armor and can only be
soaked with natural aggravated soak. The attack
does not gain damage dice from the threshold
successes nor from the Perception attribute. Instead
the attack does one dice of aggravated damage per
legend point spent when activating the boon. The
Scion cannot spend more legend points per attack
than twice her dots in Legend.
Luna’s Wrath
Accuracy 4, Damage 1A/legend spent, Range: 50,
Speed 5
GOD Lunar Homesteading
Cost: 5 legend
Type: Simple
This boon calls upon the covenant sealed with Luna
during the titanomachi that grants the Scion the
right of passage to the Moon as well as the right to
homestead on the near side of the Moon. With this
boon the Scion can, if she is in direct line of sight
with the Moon, travel to its surface on a beam of
light by paying 5 legend. She must be able to
perceive the Moon with her own senses and she
may not travel if the Moon is covered by Clouds.
As part of the covenant the gods sealed with Luna
during the titanomachi all Scions are allowed safe
passage on the Moon, regardless if they have this
boon or any other Moon boon. Luna grants her
protection to Scions from the cosmic radiation, the
Moon’s extreme temperature swings as well as
allowing them to breath and speak despite the
airless vacuum of the Moon.
A Scion who have purchased this boon may claim a
patch of land on the near side of the Moon with a
109
Moon
maximum radius of one kilometer. On this land, the
land of the Moon follows the Scion’s voice and can
be reshaped to structures such as dormitories,
observatories, libraries, pathways, statues, gardens
and so on. This shaping of the Moon is too slow to
be used as a weapon but could be used to build a
prison around a person not paying attention.
The Scion can activate this boon again to return to
any place on the Earth she can see with her own
eyes. If clouds are covering her destination and she
can’t see the ground beneath them then she can’t
travel to it either. She can however travel to the
clouds themselves should she want to but will then
appear in the middle of atmosphere. The Earth is
always up in the sky when standing on the near side
of the Moon regardless of its phase or location
around the Earth.
It is forbidden for Scions to homestead the far side
of the Moon and Luna swiftly punishes any
transgressions to this rule.
GOD Moon Shadow
Cost: 10 legend + 1 willpower
Type: Simple, Lunar Command
The Scion makes herself and her allies as
imperceptible as the shadow of the Moon at night.
After focusing for a moment the Scion cloaks
herself and all allies within 1 yard per dot of Legend
she has. This boon also suppresses sounds made,
scents left behind and any cloaked characters leave
no footprints or traces of passing. Can cloak
individual characters but also vehicles such as
motor bikes, cars or tanks. The boon can be used at
any time during the day or night.
She rolls a (Dexterity or Intelligence)+Stealth roll
that counts as a collective stealth roll for the group
and as long as the group members stay close to the
Scion they will be cloaked. Any onlooker must beat
this roll and also suffer an increased equal to half
the Scion’s Legend rating(rounded up) regardless
of what sense they are relying on. Like DEMIGOD
Phase Cloak this allows for stealth in plain sight of
other people and also can’t be spotted by abilities
that let a character see magical fields.
The boon lasts for one scene or until broken. Any
character that makes an attack or takes damage
Moon
loses his invisibility but the rest of his allies remain
cloaked. The boon gains additional effects
depending on what phase the Moon is in.
New Moon: Ranged attacks made by the Scion
does not break her own cloak.
Changing Moon: The radius of the boon is five
times larger than normal.
Full Moon: The base radius of the boon shrinks to
half a meter per dot of Legend the Scion has but
whenever a character or a swarm breaks their own
cloak by attacking that attack does double damage.
Avatar powers
For each Avatar boon the Scion purchases, she is
permanently locked out from one of Sky’s
antithetical purviews, Sun and Order. The Scion
cannot purchase more than two Avatar powers in
the same purview.
AVATAR Eclipse
Cost: 15 legend + 1 willpower
Type: Extended Action
During day time the Scion may reach up to the sky
and call on the Moon to show its dominance over
the Sun. Like with other Moon boons, the Moon
itself does not move but its metaphysical presence is
brought forth by the Scion's magic. After she has
channeled her powers for one minute the Moon
covers the Sun and makes a total solar eclipse,
creating a confluence where the magical flows of the
Earth and the Moon meet, overcharging the area
with magical energies. Some of the most potent
magic known to the Gods have been cast during a
solar eclipse and Treaty of Divine Peace was
sanctified by Frigg during a solar eclipse.
For a one scene a metropolis sized area is covered
by the eclipse and day turns to night with the only
source of a light being the corona of the sun visible
around the new moon in the sky. The Scion's own
contours also glows with the corona of the sun as
she is the center of the magical confluence created
by the eclipse. She counts 5s and 6s as successes on
all boon and knack activation rolls and adds her
dots in Intelligence as extra damage dice(that does
not count toward the bonus dice cap) to any attack
she makes made with a magical component. She
also regenerates 2 legend for every action taken in
combat or every 5 seconds out of combat.
Moreover, all her allies within line of sight of her
gain bonus dice equal to her dots in Legend on any
boon or knack activation roll.
This boon may only be cast during day time and
while it is active the Moon is locked in the new
moon phase and no Lunar Command boon can
change the phase of the Moon. This boon may be
cast in any world where there is a sun or similar
light source that could be eclipsed by the Moon.
AVATAR Blood Moon
Cost: 15 legend + 1 willpower
Type: Extended Action
During night time the Scion can create a lunar
eclipse by moving the Moon across the sky so that
the Sun, the Earth and the Moon all line up with
the Earth being in between the other two. After
channeling her magic for one minute a lunar eclipse
is created with Moon first being covered by the
Earth's shadow but then lighting up in a blood red
hue as the three celestial bodies line up. Like with
other Lunar Command boons the Scion does not
actually move the Moon but rather brings forth the
Moon's metaphysical presence with her magic.
The blood moon can be seen in a metropolis sized
area around the Scion and the Scion is filled with
passions of the full moon. The Scion count 5s and 6s
as successes on the damage roll of any physical
attack she makes. Everyone that can see the blood
moon in the sky must succeed on a Wits+Integrity
roll with a difficulty equal to the Scion's Legend
rating or be affected with the full moon effect of the
Scion's DEMIGOD Lunacy if she has it but the
Scion may exclude any character from this effect.
Any allies within line of sight of the Scion gain
bonus damage dice to their physical attacks equal to
her dots in Legend.
This boon may only be cast during night time and
while it is active the Moon is locked in the full moon
phase and no Lunar Command boon can change the
phase of the Moon. This boon may be cast in any
world where the Scion can call upon the Moon.
 Moon

AVATAR Celestial Dance

Cost: None
Type: Simple

The Scion may at any time attune herself to the a

specific moon phase(Speed 6, -0 DV) and will then
gain the benefits of that moon phase in addition to
the phase the Moon is currently in.

 Order
Order represents structure, laws and the middle world and is the antithesis to Chaos. Scions strong in the
Order purview can pursue criminals, enact justice, counter magic and call upon the inherent structure and
laws governing Creation.
New Keyword: Reasonable Suspicion
Reasonable Suspicion is a level of proof that is
required to activate some Order boons such as
HERO Long Arm of the Law or DEMIGOD
Divine Enforcer. Reasonable Suspicion is a low
level of proof that requires there to be some
evidence beyond a hunch as to the guilt of a person.
For example if the Scion knows that the criminal
was dressed in a red hoodie and fled by foot and she
sees a person fitting that description, she then has
reasonable suspicion that the person is the culprit.
The Scion also needs to know the law the suspect
has allegedly broken and the law must have
jurisdiction over the suspect for these boons to
activate. If it becomes obvious to the Scion that this
person is not the culprit she loses reasonable
suspicion and all boons dependant upon it
automatically fail.
HERO Truth Above All
Cost: None
Type: Passive
When starting an investigation into any matter, the
Scion may swear to go wherever the evidence leads
her and if she does so she gains bonus dice to any
related Investigation roll equal to her dots in
Legend. However, should she break her oath and
misrepresent her findings, she can no longer benefit
from this boon until she has set the record straight.
HERO Long Arm of the Law
Cost: 3 legend
Type: Reflexive, Reasonable Suspicion
When the Scion has Reasonable Suspicion of a
person committing a crime, she may activate this
power when chasing or tracking that person. The
112
Scion gains bonus dice equal to her Legend rating
to all rolls to track and doubles her base dash speed
when attempting to chase down the suspect.
HERO Divine Righteousness
Cost: 2 legend
Type: Passive
When the Scion attempts to convince another to act
morally and for the greater good, her voice burns
with passion and is filled with divine authority.
When rolling to influence someone with a moral
argument that the Scion herself believes is the right
thing to do she reduces her target’s Integrity with as
many dots as she herself has in Charisma, however
Integrity can never be reduced below 0.
HERO Isle of Stability
Cost: 3 legend
Type: Supplemental
There is an inherent structure to Creation that all
things must follow. Every being and object has
limitations and cannot act outside of these
limitations. The monkey cannot suddenly decide to
become a bird any less than the flower on the
ground can refuse the light of the sun.
The Scion enforces this inherent structure in a
person or an item by touching it and enhancing the
stabilizing influence of the middle world around it.
For one scene, all magic affecting the target has the
difficulty of its activation roll increased by half the
Scion’s Legend rating(rounded up). If used in
combat this boon must be part of an unarmed
attack, must be payed for before rolling ot attack
and is only applied if the attack hits.

If multiple applications of this boon is cast on the
same target, only the most potent cast is applied.
DEMIGOD Ontological Armor
Cost: 3 legend
Type: Simple
Existence cannot be refuted, not among the Scion
nor among anyone else in the world. With this boon
the Scion fortifies her own existence. For one scene
she gains bonus dice to all physical, social and
mental resistance rolls equal to her dots in Legend.
If these influences are chaotic in nature such as
boons from Chaos purview or influence from the
unformed overworld, these bonuses double.
DEMIGOD Eye for an Eye
Cost: 4 legend + 1 willpower
Type: Simple
The Scion looks at a target and forces his own
crimes back unto him. She rolls (Charisma or
Intelligence)+Presence against the targets
Wits+Integrity and if the roll is successful the target
is cursed with Eye for an Eye for one scene or until
the Scion takes unjust action against the target
which breaks the effect.
Every time the target deals damage to an enemy and
is not acting in self defense, this boon inflicts the
same injury back to him. He suffers the same
amount and the same type of damage as the target
he struck did. This damage is unavoidable and
cannot be negated even with a Perfect Defense.
The Storyteller is the ultimate arbiter of what
constitutes self defense and the target need not be
subject of physical violence to justify fighting back,
being subjected to mind controlling powers or
extortion can also justify some amount of violence
as self defense, but never more than is necessary to
avert the threat.
If the target of Eye for an Eye kills someone the
reflected damage becomes aggravated damage. If
this in turn does not kill the target he still suffers
from a permanent mark or disfigurement of some
kind.

Order
DEMIGOD The Equalizer
Cost: 4 legend + 1 willpower
Type: Reflexive, Perfect Defense
The Scion enforces the stabilizing influence of the
middle world around her protecting herself or
another person close to her. All magical attacks are
rendered ineffectual, magical flames die out,
freezing winds disappear, divine strength weakens
and even relics cease to function. This boon is
activated when the Scion or someone within her
Move is targeted by any attack and purges the
magical properties of all attacks rendered against
her or the person she wishes to defend during that
tick, including dice or successes gained from Epic
Attributes.
Magical area of effect attacks fade a couple of
meters around the protected person and can protect
multiple characters against such effects. This boon
counts as a Perfect Defense and the Scion can only
activate one Perfect Defense per scene.
DEMIGOD Divine Enforcer
Cost: 2 legend
Type: Supplemental, Reasonable Suspicion
When the Scion has Reasonable Suspicion that a
person has committed a crime the Scion may
activate this boon when attempting to clinch her
target or to fetter him with rope, hand cuffs or
equivalent. She gains bonus dice equal to her dots
in Legend when attempting to do so but if she is
clinching she may only take the hold action. Any
attempt the target makes to free himself or any
activation roll of a knack or boon loses dice equal to
the Scion’s dots in Legend. The Scion need only pay
for this boon once when she initiates the clinch or
fastens the bonds and the effect will hold until the
target is freed.
If the Scion finds she no longer has reasonable
suspicion against the target, this boon immediately
ceases to function.
Order
DEMIGOD Inquisitor’s Brand
Cost: 5 legend + 1 willpower
Type: Simple
Whenever the Scion investigates a crime and finds a
preponderance of evidence that is convincing to the
Scion in both quantity and quality, she can declare
the guilt of those the evidence points to and can use
this boon to punish them. Once she has
apprehended them she may sear a magical brand
into their flesh that punishes and impedes any
further attempts at the same crime.
She touches the target and rolls her (Charisma or
Intelligence)+Presence against the target’s
Stamina+Fortitude. If successful a brand is burned
into his flesh and she forbids him to ever again do
the same type of criminal deed that she convicted
him of. This ban is directed toward general types of
crimes such as “hurting others”, “taking what is not
yours” or “misleading the authorities”.
Should the target ever attempt to commit the same
type of crime again the brand burns and he becomes
wracked by nausea. The action he attempts to take
loses dice equal to the Scion’s dots in Legend. The
brand sears his flesh for one unsoakable level of
lethal damage and the nausea makes him lose one
dice to all actions taken for the rest of the scene.
This dice penalty is stackable should he trigger the
ban multiple times during the same scene.
The brand lasts for as long as the Scion sees fit and
she may stipulate a duration at the casting of this
boon or at any other time revoke it. Whether
cancelled by the Scion or dispelled by anti magic
the magic of the brand fades but the physical mark
on the flesh remains.
DEMIGOD Rule of Law
Cost: None
Type: Passive
When taking an action that attempts to uphold the
law, the Scion gains bonus dice equal to half her
dots in Legend(rounded up). In order for the boon
to activate, the Scion must know the law she is
enforcing and the law must have jurisdiction where
she is. In combat the bonus dice from this boon is
added to the attack roll but not the damage roll.
GOD The Greater Good
Cost: 20 legend + 1 willpower
Type: Simple
Mankind and the gods alike have achieved their
goals by working together in great societies where
every person has a role, a purpose and works
towards the greater good. With this boon, the Scion
can instill a divine work ethic, quell subversive
thought and oblige authority figures.
The Scion concentrates for a moment, pays the cost
and rolls (Charisma or Intelligence)+Presence at
difficulty 3 to activate the boon. The boon affects up
to 100 persons per dot in Legend that the Scion has
that can hear her voice and this boon functions
through loudspeakers or megaphones. Anyone
listening are affected by the boon unless they
succeed on a Wits+Integrity roll against the
threshold successes of the Scion’s activation roll.
The Scion may exclude herself from the boon and
may also exclude any allies.
Anyone affected will always do his best to act in
accordance with his position in the hierarchy,
organization or family structure he is part of.
Moreover, he will always act within the cultural
norms and boundaries that his society operates
within and he will always follow the law.
Revolution, disobedience or even crime are all
rendered impossible under the effects of this boon.
An affected character could not steal to feed his
starving family any less than he could refuse
military service if his country mandated it from him.
However, affected characters will only follow
orders that their superior have the authority to give.
For example a police officer who is asked by his
superior to kill himself will deny the request as his
superior officer does not have the authority to ask
him to do so. Affected characters that do not have a
job within the society will self organize to clean up
the streets, feed the hungry or protect society from
wrong doers.
Affected characters gains the Scion’s dots in Legend
as extra dice(that does not count toward the bonus
dice cap) to resist all social and mental influences
that in any way diminishes the character’s ability to
carry out her duties.

The boon lasts for 24 hours and if the Scion wishes
to recast it she must again address all affected.
GOD Eternal Prison
Cost: 20 legend + 1 willpower
Type: Simple
This punishment is reserved for the most dangerous
wrong-doers where even their death is not enough
to keep the world safe from their malice. Some gods
can continue their evil deeds from the afterlife or
worse, be resurrected by their allies to live again.
For threats like these, eternal imprisonment is the
only answer.
This punishment is typically reserved for
particularly heinous crimes such as mass murder,
treason, collusion with the titans or the like but may
be cast on any violent criminal that is a danger to
others if set free. Once the Scion finds convincing
evidence of the target's guilt and the target is
subdued or otherwise incapacitated she may cast
this boon on him. If a prison or fetters have been
crafted specifically for the target the Scion blesses
these. If none are available she may conjure a
sheathe of impervious crystal around the target to
serve as his prison.
The prisoner falls into a coma-like slumber where
he is only partially aware of his surroundings. The
magic of the prison keeps him alive indefinitely but
drains him of all his legend points.
The prison itself becomes practically indestructible
and has both health and hardness equal to ten times
the Scion's dots in Legend. The prison must be
maintained by the Scion once every few years by
touching it and recasting this boon. If she doesn't do
this, the prison begins to slowly deteriorate and
loses one point of hardness and one health level for
every five years thereafter. The process is slow and
may take hundreds of years, but if the prison is
unattended it will eventually crack.
Once per year the prisoner may make a single roll
to shatter the prison from within which counts as a
normal attack on an inanimate object. Any damage
done to the prison is repaired by the Scion if she
touches the prison and recasts this boon.

GOD Quell Magic
Cost: 20 legend + 1 willpower
Type: Simple
The Scion brings the magical flow around her to a
near stand still, making magic impossible to cast and
canceling most persistent magical effects.
Supernatural beings may enter the area but they
can intuit that something is wrong as they can feel
the stagnant magic in their ichor.
The effect covers an area of 100 meters per dot of
Legend the Scion has and lasts for one scene. No
one in the area can spend points of legend for any
purpose and magical effects that originated from
outside the area are snuffed out if they attempt to
travel inside the area. This includes effects cast on
ones self such as the earth boon DEMIGOD Earth
Armor or the dexterity knack DEMIGOD Divine
Grace as well as effects that exist outside of the
Scion such as the sun boon HERO Luminescent
Sphere. Any attempt to teleport into the area is
stopped and the traveller is materialized at the
border of the area.
However, passive boons and knacks remain in
effect as well as the yield from any epic attributes.
Relics continue to function as normal but the
wearer cannot spend legend to activate any effects
they contain.
A character with a dispel such as DEMIGOD
Divine Unweaving may make an attempt to dispel
this boon but must be outside the area to do so and
the difficulty is increased by an amount equal to the
Scion’s dots in Legend.

AVATAR The Eye of Creation

Cost: 10 legend / minute
Type: Simple

The Scion can forgo her own sight and see the
world through the Eye of Creation instead. With
this sight she can perceive a metropolis sized area
around her and within these bounds she sees
everything. She closes her eyes and focuses on the
flow of Creation around her and pays the activation
cost to activate this boon.

With it she sees through walls, underground and

into private buildings. She can listen to any
conversation made in the area around her. She can
gaze into the blood stream and see the white blood
cells fight an infection, she can look into a person’s
brain and watch as his synapses fire and she can
even observe molecules crash into each other and
react.

She can see magical flows emanating from the

overworld and the pull of tartarus tugging on the
departed from the underworld. She can observe a
person’s soul and even listen to his surface thoughts.
She can perceive any physical quality about any
object that is within her horizon. She can see the
electromagnetic fields, cosmic rays and gravity
wells.

When looking at an individual person the Scion’s

player becomes aware of every single statistic and
power the character has such as attributes, abilities,
virtues, defense values, boons and knacks.
 Sky
Sky is the purview of the heavens. Storms, winds and lightning all fall into its domain. With this purview the
Scion may hurl bolts of lightning, fall hundreds of meters without harm, captain the clouds like her own ship,

She cannot create or affect weather more extreme
than a strong breeze, setting large branches in

the weather to a type that is close to the current
weather is immediate(such as overcast to rain) but
changing the weather to a type that is far from the
current weather(clear skies to rain and wind) takes
longer, with the transition lasting roughly one
scene.
The new weather remains for one scene after which
natural forces take over.
Moreover, for two legend the Scion can predict the
weather for an area around her with a radius of up

radius of her Legend meter lasting one scene. The
Sphere moves with the Scion, keeps atmospheric
pressure equal to the surface of the Earth and the
created air forever remains fresh and breathable
and noxious elements, such as poison gas, are
expelled from the air bubble.
If activated under water, the buoyancy of the air
bubble will propel the Scion to the surface and
anyone else can make the trip with her if they hold
on to her. In the vacuum of space she can use
DEMIGOD Wind’s Freedom to fly while this
boon is active. The created air will not disperse into
the vacuum and will provide her and others with
breathable air. That said, it does not protect from

in space.
DEMIGOD Gale Force
Cost: 5 legend + 1 Willpower
Type: Reflexive, Area Effect
When the Scion activates this boon the wind picks
up around her, stray papers take to the air and
umbrellas become unusable. She may empower the
wind three times per activation at a target within 25
meters per dot of Legend she has and affecting
targets in a radius equal to one meter per dot of
Legend she has. Empowering the wind is a speed 5.
When empowering the wind the Scion rolls
(Strength or Intelligence)+Athletics and notes the
result. Any person caught in the wind must succeed
on a Strength+Athletics roll against the Scion’s
successes or lose their grip and be knocked back 2
meters per threshold success the Scion rolled as well
as knocked down. If there is a solid object such as a
wall or a boulder within the knock back distance,
the target is slammed into it and takes dice of
bashing damage rolled with the Scion’s
Strength+threshold successes. The damage is
soaked as normal.
When directing the wind toward inanimate objects,
she counts her activation roll as a Feats of Strength
roll. This must be a Feat of Strength that reasonably
can be performed with a wind, like shattering
windows or hurling cars, but not lifting a portcullis
or digging into a mountain. This is not a precision
tool and ripping the roof off a building will also
shatter nearby windows and pull trees out of the
ground, hurling a car away is likely to hurl an entire
street of cars and so on.
DEMIGOD Gift of Quetzalcoatl
Cost: 1 Willpower
Type: Simple
Either when standing high above the ground or in
strong winds, the power of wind restores the Scion’s
strength. When at least 100 meters above the
ground or standing in wind strong enough to set
whole trees in motion she may activate this boon
and gain legend points equal to her dots in Legend.
DEMIGOD Wind’s Freedom
Cost: 3 legend
Type: Simple
The Scion glides up into the air and flies for one
scene. She may move freely in the air and her Dash
distance is doubled(stacks additively with other
movement enhancing powers). Further, flying is
never considered a strenuous task and the Scion
may use her Dash continuously without penalty.
DEMIGOD Wind’s Freedom requires an
atmosphere to function and cannot be used
underwater or in a vacuum.
DEMIGOD Sky Castle
Cost: 15 legend to claim a cloud, 1 legend to reshape
Type: Simple
When the Scion activates this boon she claims a
cloud in the sky as her own heavenly abode. This
cloud covers a number of acres equal to her Legend
rating and any surplus cloud mass drifts away when
this power is activated. The cloud becomes a
singular solid mass but otherwise still behaves like a
cloud, floating in the sky and may gather more
cloud mass underneath and rain it down on the
Scion’s command. Further, she may direct the cloud
and sail it on the sky winds like one would a boat on
the ocean reaching speeds up to 200 km/h.
Otherwise she may “anchor it” and have it remain
stationary in the sky or call it down to the ground
where it appears as a dense fog and she may step
onto it. Directing the cloud is a Miscellaneous
action that costs no legend.
The Scion can place medium sized objects, like
people or cars, on the cloud without it breaking but
heavier constructions like houses or trailer trucks is
too much for the cloud to bear. If left unattended
the cloud dissipates after one month. The Scion may
claim a number of Clouds equal to her Legend
rating.
Moreover, the Scion can reshape the clouds into
whatever form she likes for 1 legend per shape. She
can form any cloud, including those she hasn’t
claimed, from the ground and either part them,
write messages or sculpt them into any form she
wishes. She can also make structures like houses or

15 minutes until the wind speeds reaches full
Hurricane strength impacting a metropolis sized
area for 6 to 12 hours. Trees are torn down,
windows shatter, cars are flipped over and a deluge
of rain, sleet or hail covers the area. Non reinforced
structures like buildings, bridges or levees may
collapse over the course of the Hurricane and any
character loses dice on all physical rolls equal to the
Scion’s Legend while out in the open.
The Scion is unaffected by the hurricane and so is
any ally within 20 meters of her that she chooses to
shield.
GOD Final Breath
Cost: 5 legend
Type: Simple
The Scion locks her target in a prison of wind,
violently pulling all the air from his lungs until he
suffocates.
The Scion targets a person within 50 meters, pays
the activation cost and rolls (Dexterity or
Intelligence)+Marksmanship and notes the result.
Every time it is the target’s tick to act, he rolls his
Stamina+Fortitude against the Scion’s initial roll. If
he fails, he must take the Inactive action and counts
as if he was clinched(HERO Monkey in the
Middle and other clinch powers are applicable) and
takes unsoakable dice of bashing damage equal to
two times the Scion’s Legend rating. This damage
dice pool is not increased by attributes nor by any
other powers. This continues until the target dies or
he succeeds on his Stamina+Fortitude roll
whereupon he breaks free and may act during his
turn as normal.
Another person can try to free the target suffocating
wind by attempting a Speed 5 miscellaneous action
to pull the target free from the wind. This requires a
Strength+Athletics roll at a difficulty of 5 plus the
successes scored on the Scion’s activation roll.
The Scion need only spend an action on activating
the boon and is thereafter free to act.
Avatar powers
For each Avatar boon the Scion purchases, she is
permanently locked out from one of Sky’s
antithetical purviews, Earth and Water. The Scion
cannot purchase more than two Avatar powers in
the same purview.
AVATAR God of Thunder
The Scion can use her DEMIGOD Gift of
Quetzalcoatl to generate legend points from
electricity like power cables or a lightning storm.
When rolling for damage with any lightning and
electricity based damage she counts 5s and 6s on the
dice as successes.
Moreover, for one additional willpower, the Scion
may supercharge any lightning based attack making
the electricity arc around her target and hit all
enemies within the Scion's Legend as meters around
the initial target. The attack gains the Area Effect
property and the Scion makes one attack roll while
each enemy defends separately.
AVATAR The Eternal Storm
The Scion's weather and wind related powers lasts
much longer and covers greater areas.
The Scion's HERO Weather Husbandry last
forever, DEMIGOD Gale Force lasts for one scene
with unlimited charges and while the Scion stands
inside the area of her GOD Hurricane she gains
her Legend as extra dice toward the activation roll
of any Sky boon, including attack rolls with boons
such as DEMIGOD Levin Fury. These extra dice
do not count toward bonus dice cap.
 Sky

AVATAR Ruler of the Skies

The Scion's HERO Sky's Grace can be used on

any allies that the Scion can perceive for no cost.
Her DEMIGOD Gift of Quetzacoatl now grants
double the amount of legend points. Her
DEMIGOD Wind's Freedom is always active for
no cost and now quadruples the Scion's Dash speed
instead of doubling it. The Scion may
interchangeably walk, run or fly whenever she
wishes. Her DEMIGOD Sky Castle can for one
additional willpower be used on houses and
structures no larger than a mansion and they will
then rise up into the sky and float with the clouds.
Her claimed clouds and these skyward houses now
last forever and if joined together can make a
floating city. Finally, the Scion's GOD Final
Breath counts 5s and 6s as successes on the
activation roll.

 Sun
Scions of the Sun are leaders, defenders of the light and can employ powerful boons to blind their enemies
and even to scorch the earth with powerful rays of sunlight. They can create lights that can shine through
magical darkness and use the authority of the Sun to rule over mortals and Scions alike.
Magical light and magical darkness
Mundane lights does not function within magical
darkness, but magical lights do. The effective radius
is however cut down to 1/10 of its normal radius.
th
So if a magical light grants good visibility for 30
meters in normal darkness, it grants good visibility
for 3 meters in magical darkness. Magical Darkness
is mainly created by the Darkness purview and the
Sun purview has several powers to create magical
light.
HERO Penetrating Glare
Cost: None
Type: Passive
The power of the Sun washes away all falsehoods.
Whenever someone lies to the Scion's face and she
looks them in the eye she gains one bonus dice to
see through the lie per dot of Legend she has.
HERO Luminescent Sphere
Cost: 1 legend
Type: Simple
The Scion creates a small sphere of light that
illuminates her surroundings with magical light
granting good visibility for 3 meters per dot of
Legend she has. Moreover, when the light is upon
an Illusion that anyone is rolling to see through, that
character gains the Scion's Legend as bonus dice to
see through the Illusion.
HERO Blinding Flash
Cost: 2 legend
Type: Simple
122
The Scion channels the sun’s incandescence and
uses it to blind and stun her enemies. The Scion
selects a target within 3 meters per dot of Legend
she has and rolls (Dexterity or
Intelligence)+Presence against the victim’s
Stamina+Fortitude. If she succeeds the target is
stunned for 3 ticks and loses dice equal to the
Scion’s Legend on his next action if that action
requires eye sight.
HERO Halo
Cost: 3 legend
Type: Simple
A halo of light appears behind the Scion’s head and
all who see this solar crown recognize the Scion’s
divine heritage. People find themselves quick to
agree and have a hard time not showing respect to
the Scion and they find themselves unable to strike
the first blow against the Scion. Any person who
wants to initiate combat against the Scion must
succeed on a Wits+Integrity roll against the Scion’s
(Charisma or Intelligence)+Presence. If they fail
this roll they may not attempt it again until the next
scene.
If the Scion attacks someone this boon no longer
has any effect on that person who is free to fight
back. This boon also has no effect against people
who are already in combat with the Scion before it
was activated. The halo lasts for one scene.
DEMIGOD Divine Radiance
Cost: 5 legend
Type: Simple
The Scion takes part of the Sun into herself for one
scene and becomes a beacon of magical light
granting good visibility for 30 meters per dot of
Legend she has. The Scion herself is brightly

illuminated, but not painful to behold. She gains
bonus dice equal to her dots of Legend too all social
rolls that either uses or attempts to elevate the
Scion's reputation and good social standing.
As the Scion herself is a source of light, she does not
cast a shadow while this boon is in effect.
DEMIGOD Solar Powered
Cost: 1 Willpower
Type: Reflexive, Free Combo
While touched by sunlight the Scion gains 1 point
of legend every time she refreshes her action. The
power lasts until the Scion has regained legend
points equal to twice her Legend rating or after one
scene has passed, whichever happens first.
DEMIGOD Radiant Defense
Cost: 1 legend
Type: Guard action
While taking a guard action, the Scion shines with
such intensity that her entire visage becomes a
blinding light, painful to behold. Any attack taken
against her that rely on eye sight suffer a dice
penalty equal to twice the Scion’s Legend rating due
to the blinding light. Lasts up to three ticks.
DEMIGOD Solar Authority
Cost: None
Type: Passive
The natural authority of the Sun empowers the
Scion's speech and demeanor, making everyone see
her as an obvious leader and ruler.
Whenever the Scion acts as the leader of a group or
from a position of authority she may reroll any
social roll made and choose the higher of the two
results for no cost.
123
Sun
DEMIGOD Ra's Judgment
Cost: 5 legend
Type: Simple
A common punishment in ancient Egypt before the
gods withdrew from the middle world was blinding
by the power of the Sun. Whenever such a
punishment was carried out it was commonly
through the use of this boon.
The Scion targets a person within 3 meters per dot
of Legend she has and rolls (Dexterity or
Intelligence)+Marksmanship and the victim resists
with his Stamina+Fortitude. If the Scion succeeds
the victim takes dice of lethal damage equal to the
Scion's Legend, not increased by attributes or any
other powers, soaked with natural soak and is
blinded. The length of the blindness depends on the
amount of threshold successes rolled. With 1 to 3
threshold successes the victim is blinded for one
action per threshold success starting with the
victim's next action. With 4 to 6 threshold
successes, the victim is blinded for the rest of the
scene. With 7 or more threshold successes the
victim's eye sight is ruined and he has been
rendered permanently blind.
DEMIGOD Beacon
Cost: 2 legend
Type: Supplemental
The Scion injects an ember of the sun into her
attack, be it an arrow, a bullet or an unarmed strike.
It sticks to her target and lights him up making him
clearly visible to any onlooker.
While typically used with ranged attacks the Scion
may activate this boon with any attack or even a
light touch. If the attack hits the target becomes
marked with the light of the sun and shines up for
the rest of the Scene. The target suffers a dice
penalty to all stealth rolls equal to the Scion’s
Legend rating as well as granting bonus dice to all
ranged attacks made against the target equal to half
the Scion’s Legend rating(rounded up). These
effects may be stacked twice but after that the
additional light has no further effect.
Sun
GOD Wrath of the Heavens
Cost: 6 legend
Type: Simple, Area Effect
The Scion calls upon the wrath of the Sun to smite
her enemies into submission. The Scion reaches out
toward the Sun, which she must be able to see with
her own eyes, and draws down a white hot pillar of
scorching sunlight. The light is focused in a small
radius of a few meters but everything in it is
burned, desiccated and ultimately reduced to ash
and salt. Any inflammable objects struck are
ignited, metals soften and pavement melts to a boil.
The Scion herself is immune to the effect and may
use this power as part of a clinch.
The attack has Accuracy equal to the Scion’s
Legend, a Range of one kilometer and Damage
equal to three times the Scion’s Legend as lethal.
The attack is a projectile attack and is rolled with
(Dexterity or Perception)+Marksmanship and
damage is rolled with Perception.
The pillar of light lasts until the Scion’s next action
and any person covered by it takes full damage from
the attack and has to succeed on a
Stamina+Fortitude roll against the successes of the
Scion’s attack roll or be blinded during his next
action.
GOD The Right of Kings
Cost: 20 legend + 1 willpower
Type: Simple
Within the Scion's veins courses the blood of kings.
With this boon she claims rulership over the land by
divine right.
This boon may only be activated outdoors during
the day. The Scion presents herself to the masses,
proclaims her heritage and claims her birthright to
rule over them as she pays the activation cost and
rolls either (Charisma or Appearance)+Presence at
difficulty 5. As she does so rays of sunlight strike
down upon from above and if there are clouds they
part. Anyone that can see her with their own eyes is
swept up in a wave of reverence and awe unless
they succeed with a Wits+Integrity roll against the
threshold successes of the Scion's activation roll.
Anyone affected will become the Scion's loyal
subject for one week per threshold success, gladly
lending any aid they can to their new leader. Work,
money, food, taxation or other services are all hers
as long as they are done for the betterment of the
land, nation or whatever domain the Scion now
rules over.
When the effect ends any affected are no longer
compelled to serve the Scion but typically feels that
whatever they gave or what services they provided
were right and justified at the time.
GOD Let There Be Light
Cost: 10 legend + 1 willpower
Type: Simple
Also known as Lux Fiat. The Scion calls upon the
light of the Sun to shine upon her regardless where
she is or the time of day. When cast during the
night, the Sun rises above the horizon and when
cast indoors, underground or other places where the
Sun normally does not shine the light of the Sun
passes through surrounding walls until it reaches
the Scion at the point of casting, but no further.
This does not shift the planet or plane the Scion is
on to face the Sun, rather this power brings the
light of Sun to the area around the Scion. When
activated, it affects an metropolis sized area around
the Scion and this light counts both as sunlight and
as magical light and will cut through any magical
darkness directly touched by it.
This boon lasts for one scene after the light dims
and disappears. GOD Let There be Light fails in
worlds where there is no sunlight to fetch, like
inside Erebus, the Greater Titan of Darkness.
Avatar powers
For each Avatar boon the Scion purchases, she is
permanently locked out from one of Sun's
antithetical purviews, Darkness and Moon. The
Scion cannot purchase more than two Avatar
powers in the same purview.
 Sun

AVATAR Sun King

Whenever the Scion makes a social roll improved

by, or part of, a Sun boon she now also counts 5s
and 6s as successes on the roll. The Scion counts his
highest Virtue as two higher whenever she acts as a
leader or from a position of authority. Anyone who
pledges allegiance to her partakes in her glory and
count their Loyalty virtue as two higher than
normal. If they do not have Loyalty as one of their
Virtues they gain it as a temporary Virtue at a total
of three dots that they may use when they act
loyally towards the Scion.

AVATAR Champion of the Light

The activation roll of any Sun boon that blinds or

does damage counts 5s and 6s on the activation or
attack roll as successes. Her enemies lose twice the
amount of dice from any of her blinding effects such
as HERO Blinding Flash or DEMIGOD Radiant
Defense. All of her attacks become infused with
magical light and do aggravated damage to
creatures of darkness.

AVATAR Lightbringer

The range of any Sun boon and the visible range of

any magical light created by her Sun boons is
increased tenfold. As long as she, or any of her allies
within her line of sight, are touched by direct
sunlight they regain double the amount of legend
points whenever they regain legend.

prisoners taken from the area as well as searching
the premises for stragglers, valuables, traps, hidden
rooms, et cetera. This includes rolls to spot

swarms under her command gains 1 accuracy plus 1
additional accuracy for every 2 successes scored on

actions they may make twice the amount of attacks
they could normally make and may attack the same
target twice instead of only once.
DEMIGOD Sight of Ogoun
Cost: 5 legend
Type: Simple
The Scion inspects the ground at a road, harbor or
airport, lets magic suffuse her sight and she
perceives all the bulk transport of goods and
soldiers that has passed through the area recently,
letting her map the enemies supply lines, plan future
raids or track high-value items.
She must spend a minute inspecting the road,
harbor or airport with her own eyes and feel out the
ground below her. Then she may pay the activation
cost and roll (Perception or
Intelligence)+Awareness. When inspecting a road,
the magic affects a stretch of that road of a few
kilometers but when looking upon a harbor or
airport it affects the area in its entirety.
Her awareness stretches back one day per success
rolled on the activation roll and the Scion perceives
a list of all the goods or soldiers that have been
transported along the target area. This boon only
reveals goods and soldiers that have been
transported in bulk and will omit individual cars,
civilians and their belongings even if they are a
soldier carrying a gun. She also learns at what date
they passed the area and what direction they
departed in.
She becomes aware of the type of goods(or soldiers)
in broad strokes like "iron ore", "electronics",
"weapons", "soldiers" but does not get any detailed
information about exactly what has been

attack.
DEMIGOD Battle Map
Cost: 4 legend (+1 legend)

The Scion gains a innate understanding of the
current state of a battle and the layout of the
surrounding terrain and buildings. She perceives
the map in her mind's eye for one scenes time but
can also for 1 additional legend project the map as
an ethereal three dimensional model infront of her
which lasts as long as she remains nearby.
The map covers a metropolis sized area and shows
the terrain such as rivers, lakes, mountains and
buildings. It shows the terrain type like grassland,
marshland or forests and it shows the position of the
Scion, her allies and all soldiers under their
command as well as all the enemy soldiers they can
perceive. The map shows a top down view of the
area and cannot see inside buildings or
underground caves unless the Scion's side has
fighters that can see into those areas.

Cost: 7 legend + 1 willpower
Type: One minute prayer

goddess of war and blesses the upcoming battle
with a prayer. Her words sharpens the blades of her
allies, guides their arrows to fly true and gives them
the strength to vanquish their foes.

she and all her allies gain double extra dice and
War
legend points when performing a stunt. Moreover,
each time they stunt in combat they heal one
bashing or lethal damage with bashing damage

powers.
DEMIGOD Mythic Warrior Training
Cost: None
Type: Passive
The Scion's personal guidance, her scrutinizing eye
and her divine presence hones any soldiers that
have the honor of training under her into an elite
fighting force that stands on the pinnacle of physical
prowess.
This boon trains swarms to become stronger than
they could be on their own. She can affect any
number of soldiers that she can personally supervise
but she can only train soldiers that she can speak
with and that are capable of learning. For example,
animated corpses are untrainable and so is any
being that cannot understand the Scion's speech.
But a flock of wolves could be viable if the Scion
has the means to speak to them like HERO Animal
Communication.
After a week of grueling training the swarm receive
+1 resilience and after an additional week of
training they gain an additional +1 accuracy per unit
in the swarm.
For example, the swarm type Soldier normally has 4
resilience and gains +2 accuracy per unit in the
swarm. After two weeks of training by a Scion with
this boon, their stats would be increased to 5
resilience and +3 accuracy per unit in the swarm.
GOD Siege Juggernaut
Cost: 8 legend
Type: Simple
The Scion reaches over the battlefield with a giant,
ethereal version of her fist or weapon and
demolishes walls, buildings, siege weapons or any
other construction in her way.
This boon can be activated while making a melee
attack against an inanimate object. Her range is
increased to 100 meters per dot of Legend she has
and her damage is quadrupled for the strike. The
ethereal weapon strikes slow enough that most able
bodied mortals has time to run away before it
strikes.
GOD The Art of War
Cost: 8 legend + 1 willpower
Type: Simple
“So in war, the way is to avoid what is strong, and
strike at what is weak.” - Sun Tzu
The Scion focuses and leads her troops with tactical
supremacy, outmaneuvering all mortal commanders
and most divine ones as well for one scene.
Whenever the Scion's forces are equal in numbers
or outnumber their foes they press the attack and
her swarms do double damage. But when they are
outnumbered by their enemy they instead close
ranks and only lose half the amount of units they
normally should from each attack(rounded up).
Each side counts mortal characters as one swarm
unit, hero level beings as two swarm unit, demigod
level beings as four swarm units and god level
beings as six swarm units and then adds up the total
of all characters and all swarms to determine
whether the Scion's side has the numerical
superiority or not.
The effect ends if the Scion becomes incapacitated.
GOD Communication Blackout
Cost: 15 legend + 1 willpower
Type: Simple
The Scion enacts a mystical blockade that intercepts
all messages going in or out over a compound, a
borough or an entire city. The Scion looks at the
center of the area where she wishes enact the
blockade and then pours her magic into a small
object(such as a stone, a statue or a medallion) that
becomes the blockade’s Focus.
All messages that pass through the walls of the
dome are intercepted and redirected to the Focus.
Carrier pigeons will land close to it, telephone or
internet communication will be redirected to the
closest outlet, radio signals will bounce towards the
Focus never to be broadcast to the world and

magical means of communication like the Emissary
boon DEMIGOD Winged Words will be
redirected to the person in charge of it.
The Scion need not hold the Focus herself and may
hand it to someone else if she so wish. To monitor
or decipher all these messages the Scion may need
the necessary equipment or personnel to pick up
and read the messages, but regardless they will
never reach their intended destination as long as
this Boon persists.
If the Focus is destroyed or the magic inside it is
unwoven, the blockade is halted. This boon lasts 24
hours after cast and may be recast at any time.
Avatar powers
For each Avatar boon the Scion purchases, she is
permanently locked out from one of War's
antithetical purviews, Emissary and Guardian. The
Scion cannot purchase more than two Avatar
powers in the same purview.
AVATAR River of Blood
The effectiveness of the Scion's HERO Warrior
Ideal and HERO Holy War is doubled. The radius
of her DEMIGOD Blot out the Sun is increased to
10 meters per dot of Legend. She herself enjoys the
effects of her DEMIGOD Into Glory Ride even
when it is not activated. Finally, when the Scion
kills she is filled with bloodlust and her attacks gain
additional damage. She gains 1 extra damage
dice(that does not count toward the bonus damage
dice cap) for every swarm unit defeated and dice
equal to half the Legend of every character she
defeats for the rest of the scene. The extra damage
stacks but she cannot gain more extra damage dice
from this boon than two times her dots in Legend.
AVATAR We are Legion
The Scion becomes one with the soldiers under her
command. Their sight, hearing and touch becomes
hers as her thoughts, intention and will become
theirs. She can command them from anywhere in
Creation and they are always considered to be

War
under her direct control. She can cast any swarm
related boons or knacks on swarms under her
control such as HERO Shock and Awe or
DEMIGOD Unleash Hell as if she was there
herself.
Moreover, the Scion's battle awareness and
predictive ability is so precise that she can
micromanage soldiers under her command to do
maximum damage. All her Swarms gains two points
of extra damage per dot she has in Command.
AVATAR General of Heaven
Cost: 15 legend + 1 Willpower
Type: Extended Action(10 minutes)
The Scion focuses inward for about 10 minutes and
deliberates upon an upcoming battle. Her mind
parses all possible outcomes of every minute detail.
She takes into account all she knows about her
enemy and considers all their possible actions and
all possible unknown qualities of their armies and
their leadership and devises a near perfect battle
plan.
As long as her soldiers follow this plan, her army
fights with tenfold strength. Her soldiers find
themselves in advantageous encounters. Having
superior positioning, catching enemies off guard
with perfect ambushes and intercepting attacks with
immaculate timing.
On top of the superior positioning and information
gleaned through the use of this boon, any warrior
fighting following the Scion's plans gains her
Legend as extra dice that does not count toward the
bonus dice cap to stealth, join battle and awareness
rolls.
If both sides are lead by a general with this boon
they roll (Wits or Intelligence)+Command against
each other. If the Scion rolls five or more successes
higher than the other general, she outsmarts him
and his troops gain no effect from his boon and vice
versa. If no general scores three or more successes
higher than the other, their plans counter each other
and none gain the upper hand.

cubic meter(or a metric ton) of water. The water
emanates from her body and she can’t conjure water
at a faster rate than one cubic meter per action. The
water created can be either fresh or sea water.
DEMIGOD Maelstrom Prison
Cost: 15 legend + 1 willpower
Type: Simple
The Scion conjures a permanent maelstrom with an
opening up to 2 meter per dot Legend the Scion
has. The maelstrom has a significant down ward
pull and can pull in ships, people and Scions alike.
She needs to within line of sight of the maelstrom as
she is creating it.
She can automatically sense when someone is stuck
inside her maelstrom regardless of where she is in
Creation. When this happens she has three choices.
Firstly, she can ease the maelstrom’s pull on them
and let them out of it. Secondly, she can do nothing
and let them drown in it. Finally she imprison
anyone dragged down into the depths by her
maelstrom in a bubble that sticks to the bottom of
the ocean.
A character stuck inside the influence of the
maelstrom can attempt to swim out of it by
succeeding on a Strength+Athletics roll with a
difficulty equal to two times the Scion's Legend
rating or be pulled deep under surface. Any ship
stuck inside the maelstrom are doomed and will be
dragged down to the depths of the ocean. However,
if the ship is large enough to dwarf the
maelstrom(like a super sized oil tanker) they are
safe from it.
If she chooses to imprison her targets they are
encapsulated in a magical bubble. This bubble will
sit on the bottom of the ocean either until the Scion
wills it to disappear and exposes its inhabitants to
the crushing depths of the sea or until she releases
them whereupon the bubble, with anything inside it,
will rise to the surface.
The bubble is made of a translucent, hardened shell
and should anyone inside wish to get out they can

ocean comes crashing in on all the inhabitants of the
prison.
The Scion can at most maintain a number of
maelstroms equal to the dots she has in
Legend(rounded up).
DEMIGOD Poseidon’s Trident
Cost: 1 legend per 5 cubic meters or 2 legend per
attack
Type: Simple, Supplemental
The Scion touches a volume of water be it liquid, ice
or steam and can transform five cubic meters per
point of legend spent from one state to a
neighboring state meaning that ice can become,
water and water can become steam or ice but ice
cannot become steam without first being turned to
water in between. Using the boon this way makes it
count as a Simple boon and once started the process
carries on without the Scion’s attention. Changing
the states between ice and water is quick and can be
done over a few seconds. However boiling water to
steam or condensing steam to water is a slower
process and can take minutes if the amount of water
is large. The water will however start boiling in a
few seconds.
This boon can be used together with HERO Water
Control to empower her attack. The Scion must
choose one of the below empowerments for each
attack she makes.
Ice Spikes: The Scion adds chunks of ice and icicles
to the attack and the water jet’s damage stat is
increased by one per dot of legend she has and the
damage type is changed to lethal.
Focused Jet: The water remains liquid but shoots
forward with increased force and speed. The water
jet’s accuracy stat is increased by one per dot of
Legend. If the the target is knocked back the
knockback distance is doubled and the Scion gains
bonus dice equal to her Legend rating in the
resulting check for knock down.
Boiling Water: The water is quickened to a
steaming boil and will cause foul burn wounds by a
mere touch. The water jet's attack gains the
piercing property and the damage type is changed
to lethal.
Water
DEMIGOD Pool of Purifying Waters
Cost: 15 legend + 1 willpower
Type: Simple
The Scion blesses a pool of water with a maximum
radius of 1 meter per dot of Legend she has. The
pool takes on cleansing properties and any
character that spends a scene in the pool may be
cured of mundane diseases, poisons or have his
broken limbs mended. The submerged character
rolls his Stamina+Fortitude and adds extra dice(that
do not count toward the bonus dice cap) equal to
the Scion’s dots in Legend. If he is rolling to cure
herself from a mundane disease the difficulty is
equal to the disease’s Severity. If he is cleansing a
poison the difficulty is dependent on the poison’s
Toxicity and determined from the chart below.
Difficulty Poison Type
Toxicity Base damage is bashing
2x Toxicity Base damage is lethal
3x Toxicity Base damage is aggravated
Does levels of damage instead
+Toxicity of dice(poison’s toxicity has the
‘L’ property)
Moreover the water bestows the character with its
healing qualities and if he has soaked in the pool for
one scene his body will then over the course of the
next 24 hours heal levels of bashing and lethal
damage equal to the Scion’s dots in Legend. After
soaking in the pool for one scene the character’s
body is saturated with its magic and cannot benefit
from the pool again until 24 hours has passed.
The pool’s magic remains potentially forever as long
as the Scion tends to it daily. Should she neglect it
the magic within will fade after 24 hours. Moreover,
the Scion cannot maintain more than one pool at a
time. This boon can be cast underwater or at the
bottom of the sea and will then create a thin bubble-
like membrane that separates the blessed water
from the rest of the ocean.
DEMIGOD Ebb and Flow
Cost: None
Type: Passive
Upon learning this boon the Scion’s divine ichor
becomes infused with the power of the tides and her
divine blood ebbs and flows just like the sea does.
This boon permanently changes how the Scion
regenerates legend points. Whenever her personal
legend pool(not counting relics that can store extra
legend) is between half-full and full all legend
generation is halved but whenever her legend pool
is half-full or less than half-full all legend generation
is doubled.
DEMIGOD Crashing Tides
Cost: None
Tide: Passive
The Scion emulates the crashing tides, slamming
her enemy against walls, cliffs or the floor with the
unyielding force of the ocean.
When any of the Scion's attacks causes knockback,
or when the Scion throws her opponent as part of a
clinch attack, her attack gains bonus damage dice
equal to her dots in Legend. These dice are added to
the attack's raw damage after checking for
knockback but before rolling for damage.
DEMIGOD Hand of Agwe
Cost: 5 or 1 legend
Type: Simple
The Scion can shape the sea floor, create coral reefs,
grow giant sea shells and underwater plants to
create habitats, weapons and equipment. To cast
this boon the Scion must be at the bottom of a river,
lake or ocean.
For 5 legend the Scion may affect the sea floor
around her in a radius of 1 meter per dot of Legend
she has. In this area she can create coral reefs from
nothing, shape the sea floor, open up thermal vents
and direct the growth of underwater plants like kelp
or sea anemones and even create large shells. She
can shape these objects in any way she wishes and
can create rooms, tables, thrones, cages, mazes or

caves. This takes up to 10 minutes if the Scion
wishes to reshape the entire area.
Moreover, the Scion can for 1 legend create any
mundane low tech tool or weapon from the coral,
shells or other materials that are at her disposal.
This is done as a Simple action and these weapons
have the same statistics as their mundane
counterparts. The items created cannot be anything
that requires modern precision manufacturing. She
can create swords, spears, ropes and large cogs but
not combustion engines, ball bearings or machine
guns.
GOD Oceanic Stewardship
Cost: Varies
Type: Simple
The Scion selects an ocean, a lake or a river either
on planet Earth or on another world to become her
protectorate. She performs an ancient ritual
originating from the earliest days of Creation and
sheds her divine blood into the waters so that her
ichor becomes tied to it. For as long as she keeps it
safe and pure the bond between the Scion and the
waters remains. Multiple Scions can all be the
protectors of the same body of water as long as they
can all get along.
The rite takes 12 hours to perform, costs 45 legend,
1 willpower and 5 aggravated levels of damage, and
the Scion can only be bound to one body of water.
If the water is being severely polluted this boon
cannot be cast until the source of the pollution is
removed. As long as the source of the pollution is
gone this boon will start a cleansing process that
will remove any lingering pollutants from the water
and make it healthy again.
The Scion can as a simple action dissolve her body
into waters of her protectorate(cost 5 legend) and
moments later coalesce again anywhere in her
within it, allowing her to walk into atlantic in New
York with one step and emerge in Lisbon with her
next step or travel the entire length of the
Mississippi river in an moment.
Moreover, while she is submerged in her
protectorate all passive legend generation such as
legend gained from resting and receiving prayers is
tripled. Active generation like DEMIGOD
133
Water
Strength of the Earth or legend gained from stunts
is not affected.
She becomes aware of any creature, character or
vehicle traveling through her protectorate
regardless of where she is in Creation she will know
what the intruders look like and if they are
supernatural creatures she will ascertain their
overall power(if they are Hero, Demigod or God).
While always aware of it, she can ignore the daily
migration of fish and sea creatures and their coming
and going does not weigh on her mind. She will
become aware of every ship that disturbs the water
of her protectorate and can perceive any part of the
hull that is below surface but none that is above.
The Scion can rescind her stewardship of the waters
at any time she wishes but then forfeits all benefits
granted by this boon until she performs the rite
again.
GOD Flood
Cost: 20 legend + 1 willpower or 5 legend per attack
Type: Simple, Supplemental, Area Effect
This boon has two uses. Either it can be used to
flood a metropolis sized area with a flash flood or it
can be used in conjunction with HERO Water
Control to flood a local area like a room or a
hallway and pound everyone there to submission.
By paying 20 legend and 1 willpower the Scion may
use this boon to flood a metropolis sized area. The is
caused by rivers flooding, lakes swelling and spilling
over or by a huge, tsunami like wave reaching far
inland. If there are no open bodies of water the
Scion can pull on the aquifer or even a city’s water
supply but the depth of the flood is then halved.
This boon cannot be used this way if there is not
water available in her area such as in a desert or in a
world that is antithetical to water itself. The
flooding takes up to 10 minutes to reach its
maximum height and the water will be magically
held in the area for 24 hours whereafter it will be
subject to the laws of nature again.
The Scion rolls (Strength or Intelligence)+Occult
and the area is flooded with half a meter of water
plus an additional half meter for every 5 successes
scored on the activation roll.
Water
The second use of this boon is to supplement
attacks made with HERO Water Control. This
costs 5 legend and allows the Scion to violently
flood the area around her with large quantities of
water and she needs to have access to at least 10
cubic meters of water to use this attack. Once
activated her attack hits everyone around her or in a
cone in front of her with a maximum radius of one
meter per dot of Legend she has, the attack gains
the Area Effect property and does double damage to
swarms. Moreover, the attack adds her Legend
rating to her raw damage for the purposes of
checking for knockback and she gains an equal
amount of bonus dice on any subsequent
knockdown check.
GOD Tears of Suijin
Cost: 15 legend
Type: Simple
A light, blessed rain falls down around the Scion
covering an area with a radius of 100 meters per dot
of Legend the Scion has. Anyone the rain
touches(the Scion may exclude anyone she wishes
from the effect) gains natural soak to all damage
types equal to the Scion's dots in Legend and gains
an equal amount of bonus dice to all Stamina rolls.
Swarms affected by the rain gain resilience equal to
one third of the Scion's Legend rating(rounded up).
The ground around the Scion erupts in bloom as
flowers grow mature, leafs return to barren trees
and even lifeless wastelands temporarily grow
colorful flowers when touched by the rain.
This boon can be performed underwater and then
automatically reaches anyone within radius of the
boon. Multiple applications of this boon does not
stack, instead the strongest of them takes effect.
Avatar powers
For each Avatar boon the Scion purchases, she is
permanently locked out from one of Water's
antithetical purviews, Earth and Sky. The Scion
cannot purchase more than two Avatar powers in
the same purview.
AVATAR Wrath of the Ocean
Cost: 5 legend
Type: Reflexive
Upon learning this boon the Scion's essence shifts
and she gains access to a new true form that is
closely aligned to the primordial waters of Creation
itself. For 5 legend she can forgo her flesh and
become a being of pure water for one scene.
Her body becomes liquid and is malleable. It can
pass through metal objects like bars, chicken wire
and even pour through the keyhole of a door or the
opening underneath it. Her liquid body cannot hold
up clothes or armor or hold on to heavy items for
extended periods of time like a car or a freight train
but she can still carry lighter items in her hands like
a key ring, a pouch, a trident or a small artifact.
Being so malleable, her liquid body bends around
any physical attack made against her and all
bashing and lethal damage taken is halved.
While in this form HERO Water Control and
HERO Create Water becomes an innate ability
that is free of cost and always active.
Her move and dash while underneath water is
doubled and she regenerates one point of legend per
turn in combat(1 point per 5 seconds out of
combat). While above the surface she may be
carried on a intense waterspout that violently draws
water up from the ocean underneath her and as long
as she is connected by the waterspout she gains all
benefit she would if she was submerged in that body
of water. The spout can travel with her normal
movement speed but can’t travel into land. It can
however extend and reach 50 meters per dot of
Legend the Scion has, either up into the air or
sideways over the coast. The water spout can be
severed by attacking it, cutting the Scion’s
connection to the ocean and then counts as an
inanimate object with 1 health level and 5 points of
Hardness per dot of Legend the Scion has.
AVATAR Coral Throne
Cost: None
Type: Passive
The radius of the Scion's DEMIGOD Hand of
Agwe is increased tenfold. The maximum radius of
her DEMIGOD Maelstrom Prison is quintupled
and can become a roaring maw of the ocean,
capable of swallowing nearly any ship or creature.
 Water

Moreover, she and anyone accompanying her may

use her maelstrom's as portals and swim into one of
them and come out of any other of her other ones,
even if they are in a different world.

Moreover she counts 5s and 6s as successes on any

roll that attempts to safeguard the protectorate
gained from her GOD Oceanic Stewardship.

AVATAR The Eternal River

Cost: None
Type: Passive

The Scion’s ichor embodies the flow of Creation,

the never-ending motion of the river and its life
giving water. Whenever the Scion spends points of
legend she may choose to let it flow on through her
allies or resurge back unto herself.

If directing the flow to her allies each of them

within 3 meters per dot of Legend she has
regenerates points of legend equal to one fifth of
what she spent(rounded up). If directing the flow
inwards she regains one fifth(rounded up) of the
spent legend herself.

Cost: 6 legend + 1 willpower
Type: Simple
After the Olympian has been unjustly punished,
been the subject of a serious crime or wronged in
any major way, she may swear that vengeance will
be hers and activate this boon. One of the furies will
judge the situation and if she finds the the
Olympians plight worthy, her vengeance is blessed.
The Olympian gains bonus dice equal to her dots in
Legend to all damage rolls against her wrongdoers
as well as all rolls to find and pursue them.
The vengeance must be directed against a single
person or a single political entity. There is a limit to
how broadly this boon can be applied. A character
can for example not swear vengeance on "the titans"
and have the power affect every single titanspawn
in creation. But swearing vengeance on a particular
titan avatar is acceptable. This boon will however
affect any underlings of the person or organization
that the vengeance is directed at but only as long as
they work for that person. The moment they
become unaffiliated the boon ceases to affect them.
This blessing lasts until the wrong has been righted
and the Olympian can at most have three vows for

 Cheval
The Loa has lost much to war and strife over the centuries. Their ancestral homeland of Ife, the riches and
history that it contained and the freedom of their people in the slave trade. Considering this, it is ironic that
they still master one of the most ancient forms magic, soul magic. Feared by others, deeply respected by
themselves, the purview of Cheval lets the Loa ride the minds of others, listen to their thoughts and control
their bodies Eventually, the Loa herself becomes permanently detached from her corporeal form and exists
only as a wandering spirit.

● Rada’s Eyes ●● Petro’s Hands

Cost: 1 legend Cost: 2 legend
Type: Simple Type: Simple

The loa untether’s her soul’s seams and attaches
herself on top of another being’s soul, gaining access
to his senses. While the loa’s soul is departed from
her body the heart still beats and the flesh lives but
she is medically brain dead until her soul returns.
To activate this power the loa must have either be
able to perceive the target directly with any of her
senses or have a piece of the target’s body (e.g. a
lock of hair, a vial of blood, a tooth, etc) or a
magical item owned by the target. She then spends
the legend and rolls Manipulation+Occult and notes
the result. The target defends with his
Wits+Integrity, if the roll is successful the loa
possesses the target who gets access to his senses
but nothing more. If the target is on another plane
of existence the loa much reach at least 15 successes
on this roll however, the defender must still beat the
full amount of successes that the loa rolled.
All perception is done and rolled with the target’s
perception stats. If the loa possesses a machine god
capable of seeing the electromagnetic radiation
around us, so does she and if a she possesses a blind
and deaf man, so is she until she returns to her
body. All rolls for perception while possessing the
target is done with the target’s attributes but with
the Loa’s skills.
Either by her voice, gesture or by locking eyes for a
brief moment the loa influences her victim to do as
she commands. This does not require possession via
Rada’s Eyes.
The loa states an action that is no longer than a 6
tick combat action and rolls Manipulation+Presence
against the victim’s Wits+Integrity. If the roll
succeeds the victim is forced to perform the action
the next time it is his tick to act and his position on
the battle wheel is incremented accordingly. This
action may only be a physical action as the victim
only loses control over his body, not his mind.
Further, as the victim strains against the command
he does not add his skill to any attribute+skill rolls
done under the effect of Petro’s Hands nor can he
be made to spend any legend.
●●● Horse
Cost: 2 legend + 1 Willpower
Type: Reflexive
The loa sinks her seams deeper into her target’s soul
and takes full control over his body making him
merely a passenger along for the ride. While
possessing another with Rada’s Eyes the loa may
activate Horse at any time and then takes full
control over the victim’s body for the duration of
the scene.

When making any roll with Strength, Dexterity,

Stamina, Appearance or Perception the loa uses the
vessel’s attributes and Epic attributes, conversely
when making a roll with Charisma, Manipulation,

139
Cheval
Intelligence or Wits she uses her own attributes and
Epic attributes. The loa can use no purviews other
than Cheval and no knacks from Strength,
Dexterity, Stamina, Appearance or Perception.
When a victim is possessed in combat, move his
token on the battle wheel to the loa’s and thereafter
they move together until the possession ends.
Any time the loa attempts an action that is
important enough to warrant a skill check the
possessed victim may attempt to resist the loa. He
rolls his Wits+Integrity against the initial roll for
possession. Should his roll succeed, the action is
never performed and the loa is thrown out of his
body and her soul returns to her own.
Horse lasts until the loa leaves on her own or until
she is thrown out.
●●●● Mind-Riding
Cost: 2 legend
Type: Reflexive
While possessing someone with Rada’s Eyes the
Loa may “listen” in on the victim’s stream of
consciousness. The chatter of a mind is not only
sounds but also abstract thoughts, memories of all
five senses as well as the emotions that he
experiences. The loa cannot probe into the victim’s
memories and can therefore only guess the context
of his current thinking.
●●●●● Upside Down Horse
Cost: 3 legend + 1 willpower
Type: Simple
The Loa can pull the soul out of a person’s body
and carry it within herself. She looks at her target,
rolls (Manipulation or Intelligence)+Occult and
notes the result while the target defends with his
Wits+Integrity. If successful, the Loa pulls the
target’s soul out of his body while leaving his soul’s
seams unharmed. While the Loa holds on to the
victim’s soul his body becomes a zombie for the her
to command, a zombie with no will or agency of its
own and does only what the Loa commands.
Commanding the zombie is a free action and the
zombie fights with the body’s original attributes and
ability values and benefits from any passive knacks
or boons it possesses but can otherwise not activate
powers or spend legend.
Any time the loa attempts an action that is
important enough to warrant a skill check the
possessed victim may attempt to resist the loa. He
rolls his Wits+Integrity against the successes of the
Loa’s initial roll. Should his roll succeed, the action
is never performed and his soul escapes back to his
own body.
Shorter departures from their bodies are harmless
and often not noticed. Separating the soul from the
body a longer time however (anything longer than a
an hour) is remembered as a vast blackness broken
only by fleeting images projected from the Loa’s
stream of consciousness, if she so allows. The effect
on the psyche of the victim is that of solitary
confinement. While a Loa can keep any number of
souls for as long as she wishes, irresponsible use of
this power is frowned upon by the Voudou
community.
Should a target’s body die while its soul is in the
Loa, a sudden jerk dislodges it from the Loa as
Tartarus pulls on it. Once dislodged it becomes a
ghost as per normal.
●●●●● ● Voudou Doll
Cost: 10 legend + 1 willpower
Type: Craft action
The use of sympathetic magic in the Loa has long
historic roots but its current incarnation in the form
of dolls is quite new, not even a hundred years old.
Still, the legend of the voudou doll has risen quickly
and the loa has happily incorporated this latest
expression of magic into their grimoires.
By gathering from the victim one piece of his
body(such as a vial of blood, a tooth or a strand of
hair) and one part of his dead ancestors the loa can
craft a powerful sympathetic link to her victim. The
doll has two uses plus one additional use for every
10 successes rolled on a (Dexterity or
Intelligence)+Craft roll after which the magic is
depleted and the materials used to create doll are
destroyed.
The doll can be used to cast magic on the unwitting
target. Any boon that can be used to target a single
person can be cast on the doll and will then affect

the victim instead. Each boon cast this way
constitutes one use of the doll.
Moreover, squeezing, pulling or pushing pins into
the doll manifest as broken bones, internal bleeding,
terrible pain or death. The Loa rolls (Intelligence or
Wits)+Occult against the target's
Stamina+Fortitude. The target takes levels of lethal
damage equal to the threshold successes. Each such
attack counts as one use of the doll.
Once all the uses has been expended, the magic
fades and the ingredients used to craft doll
disintegrate into dust.
●●●●● ●● Master of Puppets
Cost: 1 legend per unit
Type: Simple
The Loa asserts her dominance over a group of
people, grabbing their bodies with invisible strings
and directing them as she pleases. This is not
possession like ●●● Horse but rather direct control
of their bodies like ●● Petro’s Hands. The Loa
target’s a swarm and wrests control over a portion
of its units or all of them, directing their bodies as
she pleases.
The Loa rolls (Manipulation or
Intelligence)+Occult and may take control of up to
one unit per two successes scored on the roll. After
the roll has been made the Loa pays 1 legend per
unit she wishes to take control of. If she takes
control of fewer units than the target swarm has the
swarm splits into two with one consisting of the
units that the loa took control of and the other
consisting of the left over units.
The swarm that the Loa controls is moved to the
Loa’s position on the initiative wheel and the two
now move together when taking actions. The Loa
must direct her full attention to this boon and
cannot take any other actions other than using her
Move while controlling a swarm with this boon. If

●●●●● ●●● Met Tet
Cost: None
Type: Passive
They say that Scion’s become Gods when their
entire body has been overtaken by ichor but the
Loa have another way of looking at things. To them,
a God is an untethered soul, someone who is strong
enough to leave her body behind and able to exist
outside of it forever.
When a loa purchases this boon her ichor migrates
from her body to her soul leaving her flesh entirely
mundane, it now grows old and dies like any other
human. Her soul also detaches from her body as her
natural state is now immaterial outside of a body.
Only in the Loa’s over- and underworld is the Loa’s
natural state materialized, in all other planes she is
immaterial.
The only way to exist as a corporeal entity in the
middle world is to possesses a vessel with ●●●
Horse. While possessing her target the Loa may as
a Free Action unleash the ichor in her soul and
overtake the flesh of her vessel. This superimposes
her god body on top of the flesh of her vessel and
the vessel’s body is transformed to look like the
Loa’s god body but still retain some of its original
traits, making each possessed vessel a different
experience for the Loa. Moreover, she now uses all
her own attributes while in the body and any
damage taken is absorbed by Loa rather than the
mortal.
●●●●● ●●●● Tête-à-tête
Cost: 15 legend + 1 willpower
Type: Simple
The Loa either touches her targets or a piece of
each of their bodies(e.g. a lock of hair, a vial of
blood, a tooth, etc) and then swaps places of both
persons' souls, effectively swapping their bodies.
Like with any possession, each person uses the his
current body's strength, dexterity, stamina,
appearance and perception and uses his own
attributes for charisma, manipulation, wits and
intelligence. However, the swapped individuals may
use their new bodies supernatural abilities such as
knacks and boons should they have any. Legend
points are bound to the body they are in while
Cheval

willpower points are bound to the swapped

individual’s soul.

The Loa rolls her Manipulation+Occult at difficulty

3 against each of the targets’ Wits+Integrity. If she
succeeds against both targets' defense rolls their
souls swap places. This swap lasts forever and can
only be reversed in three ways. Firstly, the Loa can
will the effect to end whereupon each soul is
immediately returned to his or her respective body.
Secondly, if both affected persons are in reach of an
anti magic spell like DEMIGOD Divine
Unweaving it can be unwoven as normal. Finally,
the effect ends upon the death of the Loa.

Should a person die while in another person’s

body(health levels filled with lethal damage) that
person’s soul becomes a ghost but loses no
permanent willpower upon dying, while the other
person’s soul claims its current body as its own and
burrows its seams into it. The spell is effectively
ended upon the death of one of the swapped bodies
and neither anti-magic nor the Loa willing the spell
to end can oust the surviving soul from his new
body.

There is no limit to how many souls the Loa can

swap.

●●●●● ●●●●● Through the Crossroads

Cost: None
Type: Passive

The loa can answer the call of her adherents. She

may use ● Rada’s Eyes and attempt to possess
anyone that is praying to her. If she is successful her
soul will travel to her adherent wherever in the
world he is. When she leaves his body she does not
return to where she was before the possession but
simply appear next to him in the immaterial realm
as after a normal possession.

The Pesedjet are ancient and so is much of their magic, full of rituals and soul magics the Pesedjet was a
power to be respected if not feared in the ancient world. However, since Zeus defeated Ra and made the
overworld of Iteru his vassal state, the Pesedjet had to adapt to their new circumstances. Heku is the
pantheon purview of the Pesedjet and while it still retains some of its ancient magics it now favors secrecy,
acting behind the scenes and influencing without being seen, or remembered.

●● Wisdom of the Ennead
Cost: 1 legend
Type: Ritual
The Pesedjet can, with the permission of the target,
subject him to the scrutiny of her divine parent. The
Pesedjet sits down with the person or persons and
she calls upon the spirit of her divine parent and
chants prayers in ancient egyptian. A representation
of the parent of the Pesedjet must be present in the
room. It can be a statue, an effigy or, most
commonly, a live animal. The ritual takes no less
time than twenty minutes to perform. Not adhering
to the proper rites and customs will only scorn the
gods.
She asks her parent a question about the people
sitting before her and her divine parent may answer
through a sign. A statue of Sekhmet drips blood
from the mouth, a hawk catches its pray, a cat starts
chasing its own tail, a clay pot breaks, etc. The God
usually answers the question to the best of his or
her knowledge but sometimes no sign appears at all.
This is indicative that they do not know or simply
don’t care.
Pesedjet and its magic pertains to the realm of the
soul and the dying. The Scion spends the legend
and rolls Dexterity+Craft at difficulty 4. If
successful she constructs a dormant scarab from
mundane materials(any type of stone will suffice)
that activates whenever she places it on the chest of
a dead or dying person. When placed the scarab
sinks its legs into the chest of the target and wraps
them around his chest bone. If the target was dying
he now passes on. After the scarab has wrapped its
leg around the chest bone, the person’s ghost is now
under the Scion’s full control. If the ghost is in the
underworld it will be drawn back up to where his
body lies.
The Scion can command the ghost to do nearly
anything and may be used to control and calm
unruly ghosts. She may also used this powers to
command lingering ghosts to go to any underworld
of the Scion’s choosing. On the other hand, the
Scion is free to command the ghost in any way she
wants and may use them for more nefarious deeds if
she so wishes.
Any body with a heart scarab attached will not
decay.

●●●● Khaibit Trap
Cost: 3 legend
Type: Simple
The Pesedjet rolls (Dexterity or
Intelligence)+Occult and draws the ancient sign of
the Khaibit, the shadow that the soul casts, on any
solid surface and blesses it with her power.
Whenever someone else’s shadow passes over it, it
gets stuck on the sign and the person cannot move
away from it. Once caught the shadow cannot be
moved by shifting light sources turning the room
pitch dark doesn’t help either, the magic has taken
hold of the victim’s shadow it is not letting go.
There are only a few ways to escape the trap. If the
Victim possesses the Fate boon DEMIGOD Divine
Unweaving, she may attempt to dispel the magic of
the trap as per the normal rules. The person may
attempt to escape the trap by brute force, by pulling
with sheer strength until her Khaibit snaps. This
requires a Strength+(Athletics or Brawl) roll with
successes equal to the activation roll and if
successful the victim suffers lethal health levels of
damage equal to the Legend rating of the Pesedjet,
but she is free. If a person possesses the Darkness
boon DEMIGOD Shadow Cut she may attempt to
cut out the trapped part of her shadow. She needs
not contest the activation roll of the Pesedjet but
must still inflict half the Pesedjet’s Legend rating as
lethal damage unto herself.
Once activated the shadow and the trap is fixed in
the room and even smashing the wall down will not
help, however destroying the mark before it
activates will disable the trap. Once activated, the
trap lasts for one day per dot of Legend the Pesedjet
possessed when creating it.
●●●●● Gift of Nephthys
Cost: 2 legend + 1 willpower
Type: Simple
Nephthys crafted this magic after the fall of Iteru.
When the pesedjet lost their sovereignty to the
Olympians, they needed new ways to influence
without being seen, or remembered. This powerful
magic will erase the memory of the Pesedjet ever
being present. It taps into mechanisms similar to
how the Veil functions. Affected targets will forget
the Pesedjet’s presence and either ignore or
rationalize any effects she had on the environment.
A wall she wrecked must’ve been caused by a faulty
steam pipe, the person she shot was the victim of a
drive by shooting, the book she stole was lost last
week by a forgetful professor, etc.
The Pesedjet reaches out into the minds of everyone
around here and erases any memory of her being
there. She rolls (Manipulation or
Intelligence)+Presence and the affected character’s
roll Wits+Integrity to resist. Against mortals a
success means that all memory of her being there
the last scene disappears permanently. Supernatural
creatures are however more resistant to the effect. If
the Pesedjet rolls higher on her activation roll than
the target’s defense roll, the target character will
forget all that happened for a time but the memories
will slowly resurface over a day or so. However,
should she succeed with 5 or more successes, then
the effect is as permanent as if used on a mortal.
The Pesedjet are careful at using this boon on other
Scions. While powerful, it is not perfect and
experience has taught them that nothing brings the
fury of the gods like tampering with their minds.
●●●●● ● Thoth's Favor
Cost: 5 legend
Type: Simple
The Pesedjet touches at a repository of knowledge
such as a book, a scroll or a data entry and says a
prayer to Thoth, the Divine Librarian asking him to
tell her all he knows about it. The Scion need not
understand the language of what she is reading in
order to use this boon. If Thoth is available(he will
always answer the call unless physically unable to
do so) he will appear as an apparition to the Scion
and give her, if the original text is within his library,
all the information surrounding the it. When, where
and by whom it was written. In what cultural and
historical context it was written, what it means and
any hidden meanings if any in the text. Then he will
remain for a few moments to answer a question or
two the Scion might have pertaining to the text
before he leaves.
In the unlikely event that it is a text that Thoth does
not have a copy of in his library, he will take the
 Heku

original and provide the Scion with a copy but will
still tell the Scion all he knows about it.
Thoth only deals with text and pictures. If the Scion
wishes to inquire about a tale or song that only
exists as spoken word and in memory, she must first
write it down before she casts this boon.

effects of the storm are avoided, but less sturdy

 Völuspá
The Aesir know their own deaths. It has been foretold by the Norns and they all know how they will die.
This foresight is called the Daudadagr and it shapes most of Aesir society. The certainty of their death
inspires their warcry, “Sigr ede daudr”. Victory or death. Part from their Daudagr and part from Oden’s all
seeing eye, the Aesir have a deep connection with the Fates and they have many powerful seers in their
ranks. Their blood however stems from giants, and ancient type of titan spawn originally hailing from
Niflheim and common in the northern permafrost of our planet before the Titanomachi. All these traits and
more are apparent in their pantheon purview of Völuspá.

Cost: None
Type: Passive
Like all others before her, the Aesir has inherited
the Curse of Foresight. The curse the Norns
shouldered all Aesir with after they tried to interfere
with Fate itself at the dawn of the nine worlds. The
Norns has determined the exact circumstances with
which the Aesir will die and nothing can stop this.
As the young Aesir is getting accustomed to her
new place in the world the Norns will send her a
prophetic vision of her own death, a vision that
returns to her over and over during the years but
never changes. The Aesir calls this vision their
Daudadagr and they seldom share what they
contain. Unlike other prophecies, the Daudadagr
cannot be changed, not even by magical powers.
Other than the knowledge bestowed by the visions
the Aesir also adds her Legend rating as bonus dice

The Aesir calls upon the All-Father to grant her his
vision and her eyes are enveloped in a white light.
She borrows a glimmer of the All-Father’s sight and
can catch glimpses of the future herself. She counts
her Attribute(normally Perception) once more as
bonus dice when detecting traps and surprise
attacks and also get to roll against traps and
surprise attacks that Aesir can’t perceive with her
physical senses. Even if the Aesir fails her detection
roll against a surprise attack, she still retains half
her DVs. Moreover, the Aesir adds half her

●●●● Feast of Särimner
Cost: 6 legend + 1 willpower
Type: Simple
The Aesir gathers food and drink in front of her and
blesses it with the spirit of Särimner, turning the
provided food into a never ending feast. Turning the
roasted boar reveals more uncut meat, digging into
the pile of wrapping paper finds one more burger,
shaking the beer cask conjures up one more pint,
and so on.
The gathered food must include at least one type of
animal meat(fish, bird or red meat) and at least one
alcoholic beverage. If eating and drinking for a full
scene any participant regain one point of willpower
and heals twice as many bashing and lethal health
levels as the Aesir has dots in Legend. After eating
from the feast the character is full and cannot
benefit from another Feast of Särimner for 24
hours.
●●●●● Northern Lights
Cost: 2 legend
Type: Simple
The ancient Aesir used to say that the northern
lights was snow kicked up by the Valkyries as they
rode with the recently departed to their new homes.
With this boon the Aesir can fill the sky above her
with the Northern Lights. It acts like a beacon to
any ghosts and dematerialized being of any type.
Such entities are drawn toward the light and must
advance unless they succeed on a Wits+Integrity
roll with a difficulty of twice the Aesir’s Legend.
●●●●● ● Victory or Death
Cost: 4 legend
Type: Simple
When preparing for battle, the Aesir can call out to
the Valkyries for their blessing. She takes an oath
and promises them Sigr ede daudr, Victory or
Death, meaning she will fight until the battle is won
or she is dead. There will be no retreat, no
surrender.
Pleased by the Aesir's commitment a Valkyrie is
sent to observe the battle(should several Aesir take
the same oath only one Valkyrie show up, or if the
149
Völuspá
battle is particularly large maybe two or three). Her
presence blesses the Aesir with a swelling courage
and battle prowess. She counts her Courage, Valor
and Vengeance as 2 higher than normal for the
remainder of the scene and for every enemy warrior
she kills in honorable battle she regains two points
of legend. Should the Aesir fall in this battle, the
Valkyrie watches over her spirit and takes her
directly to either Folkvangr or Valhalla.
However, if the Aesir should break her oath and
either flees or surrenders she will incur the wrath of
the Valkyrie who promptly curses the Aesir and
then leaves. The Aesir will be unable activate any
Virtues in combat until she has triumphed through
at least two major battles. These could be a duels,
skirmishes or a battle between armies but they have
to put the Aesir in mortal danger.
A less known way to break the oath is to be
captured alive. The Valkyries consider this shameful
as it is neither Victory nor Death and will curse the
Aesir with her dissatisfaction which has the same
effects as if she fled the battle. However, in this case
she needs only triumph through one major battle to
regain her honor in the eyes of the Valkyries.
●●●●● ●● Gleipinir’s Brother
Cost: 5 legend
Type: Crafting Action
The Aesir emulates the dwarven ingenuity that
braided Gleipnir, the rope that holds the Fenrir
wolf. Like the dwarves that crafted Gleipnir, the
Aesir too gathers a number of esoteric materials
from her surroundings(the warmth of the moon, the
heart of a house, the roots of a mountain, the beard
of a woman, etc). These materials are gathered in a
few seconds from her surroundings and the Aesir
then proceeds to roll Dexterity+Craft to build the
rope.
Once the rope binds something, that thing or
person can only break free if the Aesir who crafted
the rope undoes the knot or by attempting to break
it with force. This is a feat of strength with a
difficulty equals to the successes rolled by the Aesir
when crafting the rope plus 10.
If the Aesir successfully dominates a clinch while
already holding a rope crafted by this boon, she may

use her Clinch Action to do no damage but to tie up

her victim.

●●●●● ●●● Jotunblot

Cost: None
Type: Passive

Most pantheons consider their members to be gods

when their mortal flesh has been fully transformed
to Ichor but for the Aesir this is not enough. When
their blood is refined and other divine traits surface,
so too does the Aesir’s Jotun heritage surface and
only then is the Aesir considered to finally be one of
the gods.

When this boon is bought, the Aesir’s Jotunblot

quickens. Her physical form grows as she herself
becomes a half giant. The exact aesthetics are up to
the player but the growth can be anything between
growing a foot to doubling her height with an
increased weight to match. With this growth comes
a much sturdier body and all health levels gained
from increasing her Legend Rating are doubled(this
change applies retroactively).

 Taiyi
WIP: some boons in this purview are in the pipeline to be redesigned. The Incarnation Guide concept did not work out and is
going away.

Taiyi, named after Taiyi Zhenren, is an ancient daoistic concept meaning "Perfected Person". The Celestial
Bureaucracy is orderly because it seeks to imitate the order of Creation. All things are governed by rules,
and by understanding these rules one understands Creation. Therefor many Shen study Taiyi so that they
too can understand Creation, reach enlightenment as well as perfection of the soul.

● First Principle: Five-Cycle Understanding
Cost: None
Type: Passive
The Shen trains vigorously, meditates extensively or
has a flash of insight. The Shen sees clearly how the
five elements interact with each other to form the
universe around her. Understanding this principle is
understanding how limited the Shen’s own
experience are in Creation but also attunes her to its
inner machinations, making her attuned to the
Creation itself.
A Shen with Five-Cycle Augmentation counts her
Legend rating as one higher for all purposes except
for determining divine status (Hero, Demigod,
God) and the prerequisite Legend rating for Epic
Attributes, Purviews and abilities. E.g. the Shen
may not purchase Epic Dexterity 4 at Legend 4 nor
may she buy Demigod level boons, she must first
gain Legend 5. Conversely, she may not purchase
the sixth dot in an ability before she has actually
reached Legend 6, the seventh before reaching
Legend 7 and so on.
But all other stats and dice pools are calculated as if
her Legend rating was one higher than normal.
Including, but not limited to, defense value, the
bonus dice cap, the efficacy of boons and knacks
and the size of her legend pool.
into one of it’s offices she immediately gets a sense
of what its responsibilities and powers are and the
authority any particular official has in the
bureaucratic system. Moreover, for 2 legend the
Shen can either attempt to procure an item, a
document or a service from the bureau or attempt to
bury one in it. The Storyteller sets the difficulty
where mundane bureaucracies are difficulty 1-10
and the supernatural ones like The Celestial
Bureaucracy is difficulty 10 and above.
The Shen rolls (Intelligence or Wits)+Academics
and spends 2 legend. This conjures the correct
forms and gives the Shen the knowledge how to fill
them in and to whom to give them for a hasty
expedition of her matter.
Conversely, if the Shen attempts to hide something
within a bureau she rolls (Intelligence or
Wits)+Academics to conjure the correct paperwork
and how to sign them to hide the object in the most
obscure place she can think of. The higher she rolls,
the more difficult it is to find the item. However, a
very small bureau(such as a sheriff’s office in a
backwater town) may not be large enough to
accommodate all the Shen’s successes and may cap
the successes rolled to reflect this.

this one and has been reincarnated by the Yama
kings after each death. Drinking Meng-Po’s five-
flavored tea of forgetfulness made her soul forget
about her past lives but the Shen can overcome the
effects of this tea and revisit her past lives. Typically
Shen are reincarnated from other Shen but they
could also have been mortals or even animals.
To learn this boon the Shen must endure long bouts
of meditation and empty her mind so that the
memories of her past lives can resurface. She
becomes especially attuned to one of her past lives
and this person acts as the Incarnation Guide to the
the Shen’s past lifes. Her Incarnation Guide is not
necessarily the incarnation that came directly before
her but can be any of the line. Typically someone
relevant to the Shen’s current life situation emerges.
Shen are typically reborn as other Shen, but can
sometimes be reborn as mortals or even animals,
therefor the Guide was most likely a Shen himself in
his lifetime. The Guide may manifest whenever he
wishes but the Shen can also call upon him.
The Shen is the only one that can see and hear her
Guide, no one else can perceive him. He is not a
ghost, but rather a manifestation of an old
personality still etched into the Shen’s ancient soul.
She can however let the him temporarily speak
through her if others want to communcate with him.
Typically, the Shen’s Incarnation Guide is
benevolent and has the Shen’s best interest at heart
but that is no guarantee that he is truthful. Though
still a part of the Shen’s soul, he still has a mind of
his own and the Shen only remember what he
chooses to tell her. Some ambitions linger even
through death.
Her Incarnation Guide can guide the Shen to the
memories of her past lives. By spending 3 legend
and spending a minute or so in uninterrupted
meditation she can come into contact with them.
The Shen may name an ability and scour her
memories for a past life that was an expert in that
field. This gives her bonus dice in that ability equal
to her Legend for one scene. Some of the past life's
personality may bleed over while channeling the
long forgotten expertise.
Moreover, she can revisit the memories of her past
lives and relive events as her past lives remembered
them. Going to a random time in a random past
incarnation is automatic but looking for specific
memories is harder. The Shen rolls (Intelligence or
Wits)+Legend at a difficulty set by the Storyteller.
Remembering what town her past life was born in is
easy at around difficulty 5. Remembering important
details like the solution to the puzzle that disarms
the ancient death trap is tough at difficulty 15.
Remembering, for the past life, unimportant details
like how the weather was in China during april in
1214 A.D. is very hard at difficulty 25.
●●●● Qi Hand
Cost: 1 legend
Type: Reflexive
Any being’s Qi sphere extends to the tip of her
fingers and to the end of her foot(or at the end of
any implement she may be holding). This is her
sphere of influence with which she can interact with
the world around her. Not so for the Shen. With
proper understanding and insight the Shen can
extend her Qi sphere beyond her normal reach and
project her full force at a distance.
The Shen performs the attack or action in the air as
if her target was standing in front of her and her
force will extend through the room. Qi Hand can be
performed with any melee weapon but cannot be
used with ranged attacks(a projectile in flight has its
own Qi sphere).
Qi Hand has a range of 3 yards per Legend and
short of any supernatural barrier blocking
telekinetic effects, the Qi Hand can pass through
any material as long as the Shen can perceive her
enemy’s location. If the opponent does not
understand from where he is being attacked by or if
he can not perceive the attacks coming the attacks
count as unexpected attacks.
Qi Hand is not limited to combat but can take any
action at a distance that is normally done with the
body. Kicking a door open, typing on a keyboard,
pulling a lever or fetching an item. Each action costs
1 legend.

energies. Yin, the female, and Yang, the male. These
energies are opposite but when joined together they
form Qi which is a perfectly balanced form of
energy. The Shen can only balance herself to
become a harmonious being by ridding herself of all
preconceptions and learned prejudices and
assumptions. Purchasing this boon means the Shen
has learned to do so.
This has a number of effects on the Shen.
Firstly, with her newfound clarity of mind the Shen
has becomes more determined to bring harmony to
Creation. Her Harmony virtue is counted as two
dots higher than normal for all purposes(except the
cost of raising her Harmony virtue with experience
points).
Secondly, the Shen is no longer dependant on her
Incarnation Guide(see ●●● Second Principle: The
Unbroken Line) to recall the expertise of her past
lives and can recall their expertise without their
personalities spilling over into her own. Should she
wish, she can banish her Incarnation Guide to the
depths of her soul never to be seen again.
Finally, the Shen can use her understanding of the
Dao to pacify an unruly mind. She spends 4 legend
and attempts to touch the target's forehead with her
bare hand, skin against skin, and rolls (Intelligence
or Wits)+Legend against his Wits+Integrity. If used
in combat, the Shen must first hit him with a Mark
Target(difficulty 2) attack that does no damage. If
successful, she pacifies his mind and he becomes
free from all anger, hate and sorrow. He is unable to
be aggressive against his surroundings in any way,
but may defend himself if attacked. If left alone, he
will spend his time pondering the vastness of
Creation and the interconnected nature of all things.
This is not a truth serum and the target will be no
more inclined to reveal secrets or cooperate with the
Shen than she was before.
●●●●● ● Qi Redirection Technique
153
Taiyi
Cost: Same legend cost as the attacking boon but
none of the willpower
Type: Reflexive
All things in Creation are Qi, the power that takes
many forms, and the Shen are masters at
manipulating Qi. Magical Boons are particularly
raw forms of Qi and the Shen grasp and manipulate
the boons cast by others beings.
When the Shen is targeted by a Simple boon she
may attempt to deflect it. She pays the cost and rolls
(Intelligence or Wits)+Legend against the successes
of the boon’s activation or attack roll. If she is being
attacked by a combo of multiple boons she must
attempt to redirect them all at once. If the combo
has multiple activation rolls, the Shen rolls once
against the highest of them. If she is hit by an Area
of Effect boon, she redirects or grabs the entire
boon, not just the part of it that hits her.
If successful, she deflects the boon(she may
designate what general area the boon is redirected
to but has no say in who or what it actually hits).
However, should her threshold successes be 5 or
more, she may choose to spend 1 willpower to hold
on to the boon. The next time it is her turn to act
she may throw the boon onto whatever target she
wishes. The boon’s damage and effects are all
calculated from the stats of the original caster. The
activation or attack roll is the same as the original
cast and is not rerolled. Casting someone else’s boon
is a Speed 6 action with a -1 DV reduction.
●●●●● ●● Fourth Principle: The Eight Trigrams
Cost: Varies
Type: Simple/Extended Action
Matter constantly takes new forms, from water
vapor condensing into rain to rock’s slow
decomposition into soil. All matter is just a
particularly dense form of Qi and the Five Elements
and the Eight Trigrams govern all their
transformations. Understanding this relationship
brings the Shen one step closer to enlightenment,
but also allows her to manipulate reality around her.
The Shen can transform any object to any other
object as long as she is able to touch it. If
transformed in the Middleworld the
transformations revert to their original state after
one scene but if performed in the Over- or
