Path of Aeolus (Thaumaturgical path)

By Trey and Rob Greene.

Description

Basic roll for effectiveness is path level + Occult roll against a variable difficulty (4 near the sea, 6 average conditions, 9 in a desert).

The area the fog can affect is determined by the number of successes on basic roll:

Successes	Area of Effect
1	20 square feet
2	City block
3	Small neighbourhood
4	Large neighbourhood
5	Small city or large city if on river

Performing the path near a river or by the sea etc moves the effect level up by one.

* Summon Fog

The caster's vision is unhindered by the mist, but all others halve their perception rolls.

** Summon Chilling Fog

As above, but in addition the mist is creepy and unnerving to all enemies (-1 to willpower and +1 to frenzy rolls).

*** Hide in the Fog

In the fog, the kindred moves silently and is effectively invisible.

**** Silent Fog

When activated, sound travels only four feet into the fog. Also, the Protean ability Gleam of the Red Eyes will not function at this level. Mortals must make a willpower roll and get as many successes as the caster or panic.

***** Become as one with the Fog

The caster becomes virtually invisible and semi-ethereal. While in this form, the kindred benefits from four automatic soak dice (non-aggravated damage only) and gains the ability to walk on water.
