As written, they are designed to be purchased seperately, for (minimum eminence level requirement x 2 XP). If you wish, you can buy the power before you can use it (based on minimum Eminence restriction), especially if your campaign uses the optional rule "(6) Tenacity of the Gods". This is a Tier 1 power. Each level costs (minimum eminence level requirement x 2 XP). Allows the user to communicate mind-to-mind with the target(s).

Damage type increases at higher levels based on General Restrictions Rules.)) | ^ Minimum Eminence Level ^^ ^ ^ Primary ^ Non ^ Effect ^ | 4 | 5 | Clarity of Mind ((Roll vs RES+Power Stat, success means you can read the target(s)' memories/sub-surface thoughts. At one higher level, you can rewrite those thoughts as you see fit.)) | ^ Minimum Eminence Level ^^ ^ ^ Primary ^ Non ^ Effect ^ | 5+ | 6+ | Mind Control ((Roll vs RES+Power Stat, if succeed, you give commands to the target and they obey (no directly suicidal actions until the next Eminence level).)) | ==== Counter Magic ==== NOTE: In a higher power game, you could make it such that all of the powers are purchased as one unit, like say for 15 XP, and you just get the new power/capability when you go up a level of Eminence.

Also at +1 Min Eminence, this can provide Eminence dots worth of shielding against magic effects targeted on yourself, Potency == Eminence. At +2 Min Eminence, you can cast the shield on others.)) | ^ Minimum Eminence Level ^^ ^ ^ Primary ^ Non ^ Effect ^ | 2 | 3 | Counterspell (Instant Action) ((If you haven't gone in the round, you can attempt to counterspell someone else's Power Activation. Roll Eminence + STA (+ Occult) vs Spell Potency (no of successes). If you have more, you succeed. If tied, your counterspell fails. This in turn becomes your Action for the turn, you cannot do any other Power Activations or Attacks until your next turn, even if your counterspell fails.)) | ^ Minimum Eminence Level ^^ ^ ^ Primary ^ Non ^ Effect ^ | 3 | 4 | Dispell (Instant Action) ((Roll Eminence + STA (+ Occult) - Potency of running spell. If you gain more successes (more than a tie), you succeed in dispelling the effect.)) | ^ Minimum Eminence Level ^^ ^ ^ Primary ^ Non ^ Effect ^ | 4 | 5 | Magic Barrier ((Eminence + STA (+ Occult), and for each success, provides successes in Potency for spell suppression.

There is no roll for this particular effect; simply roll the activation dice for the other Innate Ability that you you wish to add a conditional trigger component to. If the condition does not occur within the scene (or whatever the spell was extended to), the spell simply dissipates, and the 1 Mana is still spent. **Primary Focus Purview:** Fate (or Water)\\ **Die Pool:** None\\ ^ Eminence Level ^^ ^ ^ Primary ^ Non ^ Effect ^ | 3 | 4 | Allows the User to activate their Powers with a Conditional Trigger ((Ex: The user might add this to a "Levitation" Power activation "... if I fall from this cliff" within the scene. ))| ==== Sympathetic Activation ==== This is a Tier 2 power, and costs (Minimum Essence * 2XP).
