Idea of concept for Ex Miscellanea tradition
Shadow manipulation is an accelerated ability, based on different idea I got through series and internet, I stay open to suggestions ideas toward the creation of this Major supernatural virtue
[size=150]Shadow Manipulation Tradition[/size]
Major supernatural virtue : Shadow Manipulation *
Minor hermetic Virtue : Harnessed Magic
Minor hermetic flaw i[/i]: Flawed Power ( Need light to be able to work on)
Major Hermetic flaw : Environmental Magic Condition ( During Night)
Shadow Manipulation : A character with this ability is able to stretch, use or suppress his own shadow in order to interact with others or his environment. The basic range of this ability is normally quite short up to 10m and can affect normal individual (Size 0 max) and the maximum capacity of stretch is limited to 50m adding the corresponding the difficulty level to maximize it
If someone or something else shadow is affected by this ability,the caster can control the owner of the affected shadow to some extent.
This an ability which need to be used against an ease factor grid to determine the level of difficulty and the success of the attempt.
Casting total : Perception +Ability +Aura Modifier +die roll (Stressed)
Penetration total : Casting Total +Penetration Score -Ease Factor
Throwing Object via shadow : (Finesse +Per)/2 +Dice (Stress) vs normal ease factor
