ST's note: It's up to you as to if these cantrips can work against non-changeling powers (garou gifts, mage magick, vampire disciplines, or Wraith Arcanoi). There's no reason I can think of as to why it wouldn't work on them.
Examples:
Successes: Each success allows for greater duration.
Successes | Duration |
1 | 1 turn |
2 | 3 turns |
3 | 5 turns |
4 | Rest of the scene |
5 | Rest of the story |
Appearance: When used, the caster is enveloped in an invisible sphere. If hit with a cantrip, you can see part of it as the attacker's cantrip bounces off (hopefully). If you've ever seen Akira, then you can guess how it works.
Successes: Each success beyond 1 gives a soak roll bonus with each success earned canceling out one of the attacker's successes. The cantrip also remains effective for a number of turns equal to the number of successes earned.
Successes | Result |
1 | Stamina |
2 | Stamina+1 |
3 | Stamina+2 |
4 | Stamina+3 |
5 | Stamina+4 |
Successes: Each success over one adds a die to the character's wits for an attempt at resisting the cantrip. Each success earned decreases the attacker's successes. Thus, if you got as many or more successes than the attacker, you cancel out the cantrip. Even if you don't get all of them, the cantrip is likely to be weakened.
Successes | Results |
1 | Wits |
2 | Wits+1 |
3 | Wits+2 |
4 | Wits+3 |
5 | Wits+4 |
Appearance: Same as with the first level cantrip.
Successes: As with element's friend, the more successes you get the longer the cantrip lasts. If attacked by an element-based cantrip, add the number of successes to the character's stamina to soak. Each success earned cancels out one of the attacker's successes.
Successes | Duration |
1 | 1 turn |
2 | 3 turns |
3 | 5 turns |
4 | Rest of the scene |
5 | Rest of the story |
Appearance: When used, the caster is enveloped in an invisible sphere. If hit with a cantrip, you can see part of it as the attacker's cantrip or weapon bounces off (hopefully). If you've ever seen Akira, then you can guess how it works.
Successes: Each success earns the character the below number of successes. Yes, I know that's alot.
Successes | Results |
1 | Stamina+1 |
2 | Stamina+3 |
3 | Stamina+4 |
4 | Stamina+5 |
5 | Stamina+7 |
