		+	\|Calcify \|\|5\|\|With this Charm, a Pattern Spider binds its target into its Pattern Webs. To use the Charm, the Storyteller rolls the spirit’s Willpower in a resisted roll against the target’s Avatar Background (or against the target’s Rage Trait if that target is one of the shapeshifting Night-Folk). Each success subtracts one dot from a Physical Attribute of the spirit’s choice; when that Attribute has been reduced to zero, the target is stuck in the Pattern Web. From that point onward, the target must be freed by his companions – he himself remains physically helpless, although he could use Mind magick if he does not have to move in order to do so. This charm does not work at all on Marauders, Nephandi, or mages with an Entropy Sphere of 4 or higher… the Dynamic or Entropic energies around such mages are simply too potent to contain in the Pattern Web. This Charm costs no Essence but requires a turn of web-spinning for each point of Physical Attribute drained. Once he’s freed, the character’s Traits return to normal

Airt Sense || free ||A natural ability of all spirit entities, this Charm allows spirits to find their way through complex Otherworldly non-geography. To find a particular place, or to locate a given creature or spirit among the realms, the Storyteller may roll the tracking spirit’s Gnosis against a variable difficulty – 6 in most cases, 8 or 9 in the cases of obscure locations or powerful spirits. As an innate ability, this Charm costs no Essence to employ
|-
|Appear ||10||Revealing itself in an immaterial form, an entity can use this Charm to manifest on the physical side of
the Gauntlet, unable to touch but also immune from
being touched. Doing so costs 10 Essence when the spirit
appears in a high-Gauntlet area, although it may cost fewer
points (Storyteller’s option) in places or circumstances
with especially low Gauntlet ratings (3 or less).
|-
| Armor||2|| By spending two points of Essence, the spirit
gains a dice pool equal to its Gnosis rating; that soak
pool applies to bashing and lethal damage. For one
additional point per die, the Armor Charm may protect
against aggravated damage too. Either way, the protection
lasts until the end of the scene in which it is invoked.
The spirit may invoke its armor at any point before an
attacker rolls her damage against the spirit.
|-
|Blast||5|| An all-purpose attack Charm, this power projects
damaging energies against the spirit’s opponents. Those
energies cost one Essence per die of bashing damage,
two Essence per die of lethal damage, and three Essence
per die of aggravated damage.
(For a deadlier option, the spirit may simply spend a point
of Essence and roll the spirit’s Rage as aggravated damage,
as seen in Werewolf: The Apocalypse 20th Anniversary
Edition. As noted above, however, this option may be too
lethal for Mage chronicles.)
Whatever type of damage it inflicts, the form of the Blast
depends on the nature of the spirit; a fire elemental could
breathe flame, a frost spirit might spin frost, a shrieking
horror from beyond space might warp its target’s bones,
and so forth. The spirit does not need to hit, and the attack
cannot be dodged, although the Spirit Sphere can be used
as countermagick against the Blast.
As a rough guide to range, assume that this Charm can
reach one yard for each point of Essence in the spirit’s
permanent Essence Trait. An Essence 20 entity, then,
could Blast an opponent from up to 20 yards away.
Spending Essence does not decrease this range; that
same entity could still Blast its opponent from 20 yards
away even when its Essence has dropped to 5.
|-
| Blighted Touch||5|| Invoking the essence of corruption, a
demonic entity can bring out a target’s worst qualities. If
the spirit successfully inflicts damage upon its opponent
– including damage at range, via the Blast charm –the
target must make a Willpower roll, with the difficulty
being the spirit’s Rage. If the target’s roll fails, the
character’s worst qualities surge to the surface, making
him aggressive, arrogant, lusty, depressive, or whatever
else fits his personality. That change of personality lasts
for several hours – generally an hour or so per point in
the spirit’s Rage. If the player botches that Willpower
roll, then the blight upon his character’s personality
becomes more-or-less permanent.
|-
| Brand||5||Certain spirits of the Digital Web use this Charm
to brand netizens or other spirits with tags that identify
the target even if she changes into some new shape. Three
Essence inflicts a brand that lasts until the target leaves
Netspace, and five Essence tags her with a brand that
lasts indefinitely. (Storyteller’s discretion about how long
the brand lasts and what it takes to remove it.) Typically
employed by Free-Ranging Electronic Encroachment
Kill Systems (FREEKS) and other countermeasure and
security programs.
|-
| Break Reality||5||The hallmark of a chaos spirit, this Charm
changes the Umbral form of an object into some other
– maybe radically different – form. A wall becomes mist,
fire might become ice, a tree could become a fountain of
water. To transform a given object, the Storyteller rolls
that spirit’s Gnosis; simple transformations would be
difficulty 4 or 5, with radical changes rated at difficulty
