The second command lets you discern the state of your physical protection, effectively probing your worn armour, hide, or tattoos for the defence they provide. 9800h, 7300m, 7300e, 10p Bex- COMBAT - ENVENOM

Syntax: ENVENOM <weapon> WITH <venom>

Poisoning your opponent is a sure way to get the upper hand in battle. One method is to simply coat your weapon with poison, allowing the poison a chance to enter your victim's bloodstream on attack.

Your knowledge of the flow of combat is such that you may now develop stratagems of assault. A stratagem can consist of no more than ten actions, each of which can consist of no more than five subactions (each separated by a single pipe character, '|'). If your stratagem stops, you may attempt to start it again with STRATAGEM NOW. Inserting points into your stratagem will add the new action BEFORE the position you supply. You may substitute SM for STRATAGEM for brevity.

Modifiers can be applied to individual actions. The following modifiers are available:

 ARM     - Requires only one arm on balance.
 SUB     - Requires the Sub Psionic Channel.
 SUPER   - Requires the Super Psionic Channel.
 ID      - Requires the Id Psionic Channel.
 FREE    - Does not consume equilibrium or balance.
 REPEAT  - Will remain in the stratagem after triggering.

You may pause your stratagem before creating it in order to compile a list of actions to perform at a later date (which you can start with STRATAGEM NOW), or pause a currently executing stratagem mid-flow.

If you specify an action as repeating, it will not be removed from your stratagem when it is performed. It will continue ad infinitum until you Type MORE to continue reading. (95% shown) 9800h, 7300m, 7300e, 10p Bex- COMBAT - LEFT

Syntax: MANTRA CHANT <mantra> <mantra> <mantra>

       MANTRA STATUS

All chants are made up of three parts, each part being filled by a That's new! mantra. You cannot have duplicate mantras within a chant. It doesn't matter which order you chant mantras. You can use the sound of "na" to denote a blank space within a mantra so you may change parts of your mantra without needing to replace the entire chant.

For example, you may start with:

  MANTRA CHANT OOSHMUN LUMUTI CHUPHET

Later you can change the chant by using "na" in one or two positions. For example:

  MANTRA CHANT NA KRAKMUN NA

This would change the previous chant to be: OOSHMUN KRAKMUN CHUPHET Note that equilibrium is shorter when using blank "na" positions within a chant.

Chants such as Krakuti that enable you to use active abilities like MANTRA HEARTFIRE must be chanted in order for the ability to be accessible. 9800h, 8490m, 8490e, 10p, 100em BesSix- HARMONY - LUMUTI

Once you have been initiated into the mysteries of shifting paradigms, sanity becomes a matter of perception. You will be better equipped to handle insanity than those who are still bound by outmoded perceptions of reality. 9800h, 8490m, 8490e, 10p, 100em BesSix- PARADIGMATICS - ENTHRALL

Syntax: SHIFT ENTHRALL

       SHIFT ENTHRALLED

Syntax: SHIFT REVELATIONS <target> Your perception of reality is shaped by your own will. By revealing how you perceive reality to others, you can test their sanity. Subjects will no doubt become temporarily insane. 9800h, 8490m, 8490e, 10p, 100em BesSix- PARADIGMATICS - FLUX

Syntax: SHIFT FLUX By fluxing reality in the location, you will cause any enemy to leave your location to suffer from temporary insanity. Further, there is a chance they will turn around and not be able to leave. 9800h, 8490m, 8490e, 10p, 100em BesSix- PARADIGMATICS - BADLUCK

Syntax: SHIFT BADLUCK <target> Power: 3 (Eternal Flame) By imagining the worst possible events that could plague your target, you can manifest that into reality, plaguing your victim with bad luck. 9800h, 8490m, 8490e, 10p, 100em BesSix- PARADIGMATICS - FIGMENT

Syntax: SHIFT FIGMENT <target> <illusion> Create a figment of the imagination and embed it in another. That person will see your figment three times. A person may only carry one figment at a time. 9800h, 8490m, 8490e, 10p, 100em BesSix- PARADIGMATICS - CHAOTESIGN

Syntax: SHIFT CHAOTESIGN [ACTIVATE] Power: 2 (Eternal Flame)

By drawing this arcane symbol on your forehead you will gain a 2/8 universal damage resistance. The chaote sign upon your brow will charge each time you are attacked. After a dozen strikes, it will be fully charged, allowing you to activate a flare of energy that completely absorbs damage from the next strike that hits you. An unused charge will fade 10 seconds after it reaches its peak; an activated charge will fade on the next hit or after 30 seconds, whichever comes sooner. 9800h, 8490m, 8490e, 10p, 100em BesSix- PARADIGMATICS - GREYWHISPERS

Syntax: SHIFT GREYWHISPERS <target> Power: 3 (Eternal Flame) There are constant whispers that manifest from the grey static behind reality. Opening up the mind of another to those whispers will cause madness. 9800h, 8490m, 8490e, 10p, 100em BesSix- PARADIGMATICS - EYESNARE

Syntax: SHIFT EYESNARE By tweaking reality just slightly in your location, your enemies will have a slight chance of being distracted and losing an action. If they are so distracted by what they see out of the corner of their eyes, they will suffer some temporary insanity. 9800h, 8490m, 8490e, 10p, 100em BesSix- PARADIGMATICS - GOODLUCK

Syntax: SHIFT GOODLUCK By surrounding yourself with the best possible luck, you will notice that you are more likely to receive critical hits than otherwise. 9800h, 8490m, 8490e, 10p, 100em BesSix- PARADIGMATICS - POLARITY

Syntax: SHIFT POLARITY [BUFF|RESIST] <damage type> <damage type>

       SHIFT POLARITY OFF

You may switch damage type affected by all buffs of the given types. Any buffs or resistances which would affect the first damage type, will now affect the second damage type, and vice versa.

Thus, for example, if you have a total of 5/10 fire buff and 7/10 cold buff, selecting BUFF FIRE COLD will make it 7/10 fire buff and 5/10 cold buff. 9800h, 8490m, 8490e, 10p, 100em BesSix- PARADIGMATICS - REIMAGINATION

Syntax: SHIFT REIMAGINATION <target> <type> [PLUS|MINUS] Power: 3 (Eternal Flame)

This powerful ability can be either a blessing or a curse. You can reimagine another person, changing their maximum health, mana, ego or offensive universal buffs either positively or negatively by 4 factors. Only one stat on any person can be reimagined and it will last only a short time. 9800h, 8490m, 8490e, 10p, 100em BesSix- PARADIGMATICS - GNOSIS

Syntax: SHIFT GNOSIS By raising your own consciousness, you can achieve a higher spiritual state, which will offer resistance to some spiritual afflictions, such as healthleech, manabarbs, warpedaura, pacifism, disloyalty or succumb. 9800h, 8490m, 8490e, 10p, 100em BesSix- PARADIGMATICS - REALITY

Syntax: SHIFT REALITY Power: 5 (Eternal Flame) The ultimate in paradigm shifting is altering reality to the point where the physical location is affected. This powerful spell may -not- be cast on the prime material plane nor can it be cast on aether manses or ships. The shifting of reality is indiscriminate, affecting the caster and allies as well as enemies and neutral bystanders. Upon casting, there is a chance it will fling others in the room into another room in the local area (though there is a small chance it will fling a person into the astral plane regardless of where they are). Further, while reality has shifted in the room cast, there is a chance that anyone entering or exiting the room will be flung into a random room in the local area (or possibly the astral plane). 9800h, 8490m, 8490e, 10p, 100em BesSix- PARADIGMATICS - VISIONFLUX

Syntax: SHIFT VISIONFLUX Power: 6 (Eternal Flame) You can cause your enemies to see brief glimpses of your own personal visions that shape your own unique reality. These visions will cause insanity as well as mental diseases. The use is dangerous as your max ego and mana will be halved while the visionflux is active. 9800h, 8490m, 8490e, 10p, 100em BesSix- PARADIGMATICS - TRUENAME

Syntax: SHIFT TRUENAME <target> Damage Modifier: 1/8 universal increase

Every person bears a true name, which is hidden even from one's own self. Discovering the truename of a person is very traumatic to that individual, physically, emotionally and psychically. If the victim's temporary insanity is at least moderate, the truename will be revealed. Regardless of whether you are able to receive the truename or not, your target will suffer a brief blackout. You can hold the truename of only one individual. While holding the truename of a person, any damage you do to that person will be increased. 9800h, 8490m, 8490e, 10p, 100em BesSix- PARADIGMATICS - CHAOSAURA

Syntax: SHIFT CHAOSAURA ON/OFF Power: 10 (Eternal Flame) (to enable)

By drawing upon your chaotic perception of reality, you can create an aura of gibbering madness and bind it around your hands. Warrior weapons, and Transmology Flay, Crush, and Claw attacks will have a chance to cause insanity.

Furthermore, warrior weapons will have 1/6 of their attacks will be converted to psychic damage. 9800h, 8490m, 8490e, 10p, 100em BesSix- PARADIGMATICS - ENTROPICBLADE

Syntax: SHIFT ENTROPICBLADE Power: 3 (Eternal Flame)

Must have ChaosAura up

Effect: For the next 5 rounds*, you will deal two random afflictions per round.

Possible Afflictions: Confusion, Paranoia, Hallucinations, Stupidity, Addiction, Anorexia.

This effect can only be maintained for 5 minutes without using it. 9800h, 8490m, 8490e, 10p, 100em BesSix- PARADIGMATICS - FUSION

Syntax: SHIFT FUSION ON/OFF By fusing your heart, mind and body into one whole, you will find that 20% of the time your body is harmed, your mana or ego will absorb the damage instead of your health. Fusion is costly to maintain as your mana and ego will constantly be drained to upkeep the fusion. 9800h, 8490m, 8490e, 10p, 100em BesSix- PARADIGMATICS - SNAFU

Syntax: SHIFT SNAFU Power: 5 (Eternal Flame) You can envision the worst possible outcomes for all your enemies, and embed that reality in the room you are in. This will cause bad luck for all enemies in the location. 9800h, 8490m, 8490e, 10p, 100em BesSix- PARADIGMATICS - ILLUMINATION

Syntax: SHIFT ILLUMINATION <target> Power: 8 (Eternal Flame)

Every master of shifting paradigms creates their own personal reality which brings with it a unique illumination or enlightenment. While this is of great spiritual import to the individual, it can be deadly when pondered by anyone else. If you have a person's truename and if their temporary insanity is massive, they will immediately die upon being so illuminated. 9800h, 8490m, 8490e, 10p, 100em BesSix- PARADIGMATICS - BUTTERFLY

Syntax: SHIFT BUTTERFLY <target> [<direction>] Power: variable (Eternal Flame)

Could the fluttering of a butterfly's wings in the Tolborolla Valley raise a sandstorm in the Skarch Desert? Such is the capricious and precarious nature of the multiverse where the repercussions of one small event can have unpredictable and momentous consequence. By manifesting the butterfly, the symbol that embraces the nature of chaos theory, you can send it towards one other so long as he or she is within your line of sight. The results will be extremely volatile and unpredictable and could even backfire on the caster.

The power taken by this chaotic skill will vary wildly from use to use. When the butterfly lands on its target, it will attempt to manifest a power and will only be able to do so if it can draw the energy from you. The costs are shown below:

Disease: 2 power Spider: 2 power Boulder: 3 power Limbs: 3 power Astrosphere: 3 power Pit: 5 power Displacement: 5 power Rip: 7 power Maggot: 10 power Allcure: 10 power 9800h, 8490m, 8490e, 10p, 100em BesSix-ab phantasms You have gained the following abilities in Phantasms: Whisper Phantom whispers startle your opponent off equilibrium.

Syntax: WEAVE TERRAIN <environment> You can create an illusory terrain that will mask the true environment of a location. 9800h, 8490m, 8490e, 10p, 100em BesSix- PHANTASMS - BURNINGEYE

The illusion of a burning eye will hover ominously above your head, seeing all, and helping you see through the deceits that others would weave upon you. 9800h, 8490m, 8490e, 10p, 100em BesSix- PHANTASMS - STALKER

Syntax: WEAVE STALKER [<target>] Power: 1 (any)

This spell is available in two flavours.

The first is available to mages who create demenses. You may send a phantom to stalk anyone in your demense. It will not last as long as the normal phantom illusion.

The second is available to mages who study chemantics. You may summon a stalker to lay in wait about you, which will then plague the next person to be hit by your stratus field/pellucid mist/ferrous fumes/incendiary effluvium. It will not last as long as the normal phantom illusion, once applied to an opponent.

Syntax: WEAVE CLAWS <target> Power Cost: 3 (any)

Syntax: WEAVE PHANTOMARMOUR Damage Modifier: 1/8 psychic resistance This phantom is entirely passive, he sits on your body and looks conspicuously like a suit of armour (though you will still be able to wear whatever you please). It does, however, give you a slight increase in resistance to psychic damage, and on top of that, has a slight chance to cause your enemy to black out when you are attacked (with a higher chance if it's psychic damage). 9800h, 8490m, 8490e, 10p, 100em BesSix- PHANTASMS - MIRAGE

Syntax: WEAVE MIRAGE <environment> Power: 1+ (any)

       PHANTOMSPHERE ATTACK <target>
       PHANTOMSPHERE SHATTER <target>
       PHANTOMSPHERE DETONATE

Damage Type: Unblockable Damage Source: None

The deadly phantom sphere, or sentinel sphere as it is called for its nigh-unyielding ability to keep watch over one's demesne, is an archaic torture device that has the power to kill your enemies. It requires a demesne of at least three rooms. Simply send it to your target's room and command it to attack. It will rest just inside your target's brain, and, on the eighth orb, you will feed it images so terrifying that your victim's heart will simply stop and they will drop dead. There is a chance with each additional sphere that the victim will spontaneously manifest a variety of mental conditions from the ghostly images. The illusion, being made of naught but your will, may also transform into illusory spears to shatter the shields of your enemies at a distance. Detonating the phantom sphere will harm all enemies in your room, doing even more damage to those with phantomspheres already afflicting them.

NOTE: Your phantom sphere will be unable to attack your target if they are in your room.

As well, once your target leaves the demesne, their phantom spheres will quickly dissipate over time, so it is in your best interests to make sure they do not leave... alive. 9800h, 8490m, 8490e, 10p, 100em BesSix- PHANTASMS - REALITY

Syntax: WEAVE REALITY Power: 5 (Any) This powerful illusion will warp reality in the location.

Your knowledge of phantasms is so great that you can now mercilessly send phantom stalkers after all the enemies in your demesne, afflicting their minds. It will increase in power cost depending on how many additional enemies are available to strike.

If you specialise in Chemantics rather than melds, this illusion will cost 5 power and summon a swarm of phantom stalkers that stay with you until your next adjuvant/catalyst/bomb/explosion is triggered, at which point they will seek out all of your affected enemies. 9800h, 8490m, 8490e, 10p, 100em BesSix-
