Mirror Gazing

Skill

Image HandMirror25.jpg
Description You've learned how to pull the dark shapes from your antique handmirror. It takes some serious willpower and concentration, but you'll get a little bit of whatever was trapped in there.
Effects Use from your character sheet (Costs One Energy)

Spading Notes

If you don't have any reflection caught:

You gaze into the mirror and see yourself. You decide you're not half bad looking and put the mirror away.

If you've caught one or more reflections:

You gaze deep into the mirror, seeing shadowy shapes moving under the surface. With concentration, you call those shadows to the fore.

Writhing Mass withered tendrils††

Note: you only gain 1 XP or 1 technique each time; the number in brackets are the number of samples I've done.

† With the message:

Within the mirror, you see the ghoul king's dark form smirking back at you. A surge of power pours into you as the shadow dissipates.

You've gained 20 energy of Kingly Strength.

†† With the message:

Tiny slime-drenched tentacles writhe out from the mirror. As they're exposed to the air, they shrivel and fall to the ground.

You found: withered tendrils

You can spend several adventures collecting reflections, and then use it once to release them all together.
