Description

The Path of Dispelling is a path developed by the Giovanni clan to aid in its ability to gather information, and to help it eliminate unwanted trouble makers.

* Dismiss Thought

With a Manipulation+Occult roll with a difficulty equal to the willpower of the victim, the target's last thought is dismissed from his head. The target can resist with a willpower roll difficulty 8, if one success remains the effect occurs as thaumaturgist wished.

** Mote of Dust

This causes the target to blink several times, allowing the thaumaturgist to gain an extra action as if she possessed celerity level 1, or to gain +2 to any obfuscate roll.

*** Obscure Technology

The Thaumaturgist can freeze video cameras, security laser beams, electronic devices, etc. for 10 minutes per success on a manipulation+electronics roll difficulty 7 (can be adjusted by the storyteller)

**** Dispel Elemental/Spirit Guardian

This allows the thaumaturgist to dispel a summoned guardian with a thaumaturgy+occult roll difficulty 8. Each success sends one creature back from whence it came; it can resist with a willpower roll if such servant possesses willpower of its own.

***** Rend the Seal

With this ritual all 1st-4th Level wards can be dispelled. The thaumaturgist rolls a thaumaturgy+occult with the difficulty equal to the thaumaturgy level of the caster of the ritual. Any success will dispel the ritual targeted. (Note multiple rituals cannot be affected by this, each ward has to be targeted separately).
