Nemesis

Overview

Appearance

A tall woman with REALLY FUCKING PALE skin, I mean it, she even puts Noanth to shame. Long, icy-blue hair that matches her eyes and lips, wearing a black catsuit unzipped far enough to reveal a black bikini top.

Background

The entity Noanth knows as Nemissa has been around for a very long time. This goes without saying, given she's an Avatar, but there's a point to make here: She's never manifested to such a degree before, or taken such an active interest in her Mage counterpart's development. Something happened during Noanth's last incarnation to deeply trouble Nemissa, but she's not comfortable talking about what. Regardless of the reason, she's made it her job to be the Adept's full-time guide and mentor to make sure whatever went wrong last time never happens again.

Reinforced latex catsuit. Enchantment effect: +1d soak (total 2d).

Magic

Paths

Note: Paths are static magic and cost (current rating x 7) XP to raise.

Code Property Edits (Enchantment) 1 (-7): Uses Int + Computers to create minor, static magic Devices. Although not truly affected by paradox, they "go bad" with prolonged exposure to Sleepers.

Items must be handmade by crafter, unless they have a close personal connection.

Level 1: May add 1 (or more rarely, 2) dots to an Attribute or Ability, but not above human maximums, lower difficulties by 1, add +1d to attack damage or soak. Alternatively, they may have some minor boon.

Numina

Note: All Numina cost (current rating x 7) XP to raise. Numina can be found in Sorcerer. Note that Numina are static magic and do not gain paradox.

Cyberkinesis 1: Who'd have thought a Digital Web construct would have the ability to hack computers with her brain? Dice pool is Manipulation + Computer.

Cyberkinesis 1 (Switch): Can switch computers or electronic equipment off and on. Difficulty 6 for electronic on/off switches, 8 for physical relays.

Innate Effects

Blessing 4

One point of Blessing cost mitigated by remaining point of Enhancement.

"Operator. I need some hardware." Matter 2/Correspondence 2 Blessing. Roll Wits + Blessing to activate. Success gets her guns. Lots of guns.

Enhancements 5

Weak Point Detection (Entropy 1 + Matter 1 sight, roll Per + Awareness to either add damage to attacks or reduce the effectiveness of enemy soak)

A computer program doesn't age? Fancy that!
