Chapter II: Character<br />
inder of a revolver, for example, since both parts are made<br />
of the same material, but the bullets in the cylinder would<br />
not be affected, nor would the pistol’s wooden handle. If a<br />
character sculpts an empty wine bottle into a glass rose for<br />
use as a fetish, the label on the bottle would be unaffected<br />
by the Gift (though it would be torn up as the character<br />
sculpts the glass to which it is attached).<br />
Substances that have been affected by this Gift<br />
cannot then be affected by Straighten or Ruin, but uses<br />
of Sculpt, Shatter, or Condense or Expand (by the same<br />
character or different ones) have normal effect.<br />
Cost: 1 Essence per half an hour of work<br />
Dice Pool: Intelligence + Crafts + Wisdom<br />
Action: Instant<br />
Roll Results<br />
Dramatic Failure: <strong>The</strong> object or substance in question<br />
is affected as if by Ruin, and the character cannot use<br />
Sculpt on it again until the next moonrise.<br />
Failure: <strong>The</strong> object or substance is unaffected.<br />
Success: <strong>The</strong> object or substance in question<br />
becomes malleable and workable for half an hour per<br />
Essence point spent, as long as the character remains<br />
in physical contact with it. <strong>The</strong> player may then make<br />
normal Dexterity + Crafts rolls to determine how well his<br />
sculpture comes out.<br />
Exceptional Success: <strong>The</strong> character’s efforts earn a<br />
+2 bonus on Dexterity + Crafts rolls to shape the material.<br />
Shatter (••••)<br />
<strong>The</strong> character howls and breaks down an object just by<br />
touching it, more than likely destroying it. <strong>It</strong> might crumble<br />
to dust in his hands or fracture like desert hardpan. <strong>It</strong> might<br />
even explode, depending on what other stress it’s under at the<br />
time. For every success achieved on the Presence + Expression<br />
+ Glory roll, the object loses one point of Structure;<br />
Durability is ignored. <strong>The</strong> object could then be repaired using<br />
a Crafts roll and the proper tools, or the character could use<br />
Sculpt to magically reassemble the pieces.<br />
A character cannot use Shatter on more than one<br />
object simultaneously, but one object can be the target of<br />
multiple uses of Shatter by different characters simultaneously.<br />
Also, a character can target up to one cubic yard<br />
of large objects and concentrate the effects of this Gift<br />
in that region. For instance, he could use Shatter on the<br />
engine block of a car, but not the entire car. He could use<br />
Shatter on the cornerstone of a building but not the entire<br />
building. If more than one character uses Shatter on the<br />
same object at the same time, they can concentrate their<br />
efforts on the same region to dramatically increase the<br />
damage done, or spread the damage out over a wider area.<br />
