POWERS

[ADMIN VARA !]

when it comes knocking on your door

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

All powers are set into the canons (here). So before you ask, no, you can't have a power/canon that someone else has already reserved or claimed. If you're looking for a description of a power that isn't quite so familiar, feel free to post a question in the information desk.

I'm sure most characters will have their powers established before game play (for example, if a 25 year old telepath has had his powers since he was 16, there'll be no need to introduce the how's and when's of first-use). However, for those who would prefer playing their character from the very beginning, you have two options:

One: Initiation. Between the ages of thirteen and twenty, if a witch has not yet received his or her power, the witch's family may induce first-use (the very first time a witch's power manifests). This is done through a very complex ritual. Advantages of taking this route are quite simple: you get your powers early, and you get more time to practice and refine said powers.

However, inducing first-use is much like pulling out a loose tooth before it's ready to come out. Some witches say first-use feels completely normal and natural. Others say it was the single most painful and frightening experience of their life. You've been fairly warned.

Two: Manifestation. Some lucky witches experience first-use naturally early on in life. It just pops up one day, sort of like a growth spurt. This commonly happens between the ages of sixteen and twenty. When it comes to manifestation, first-use is commonly rather pain-free. However, powers in general can be rather scary. Imagine getting into a fight and all of a sudden, your friend is on fire. Pain-free for you maybe, but still hella scary.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

You may have noticed that each of our canons already has a power. If you'd like, you can change the power or make up one of your own. Use the other powers as basic guidelines. Each family has a theme or a 'category' of power, so don't stray far from those. And for creativity's sake, don't double up on a power that's already on the list. Have fun with the freedom.
