Sphere Mixers 009 - Correspondence 2 and Life 4
Welcome to part 9 of Sphere Mixers! This is where every Monday and Friday I take two Sphere Ranks at random and ask everyone to post their ideas for...
- Conjunctional Effects using both of these Spheres or
- Two Effects, one of each Sphere, that work well together.
Correspondence 2
•• Sense, Touch, Thicken & Reach Through Space/ Correspondence Sensing That mage can now extend her senses across intervening space, sensing things in other locations. Such extensions, however, leave minor ripples in space… the kind noticed by Rank 1 Correspondence. Fortunately, she can also thicken space to cover her tracks; each success used in doing so deducts one success from the roll of a character who’s trying to spy on her or notice her sensory Effects.
By adding Life or Matter to Rank 2 Correspondence, the mage can grasp small items or organisms (housecat-sized or smaller) and then pull them through tiny holes in space. This lets her snatch business cards, guns, rabbits, and such from another location, apparently pulling them out of nowhere.
Life 4
•••• Alter Complex Life-Forms/ Transform Self At this Rank, the mage may enact radical changes on any complex organism – people, dogs, horses, and so forth. He can uplift other species with new limbs, opposable thumbs, increased brain capacity, etc., so long as he doesn’t change their intrinsic nature.
Working with his own Pattern, that mage can transform himself into other life-forms of similar size and mass; he could become a Great Dane, for example, but not a hummingbird. Special abilities of that form (flight, water breathing, and the like) do not carry over, however, unless he builds them into that new form with additional Life Effects, and the new body might require an adjustment period before the mind and reflexes reflect the new form.
