Spells

As a Pact forged with the Godhead Anok, Omnia utilizes the Metaphor of Fabula for casting.

Resonance

Resonance is a deceptively simple spell with an exceptionally vast array of applications; in short, it is the Bard’s ability to manipulate the amplitude of sound waves as well as further fine tune their timbre, pitch, intensity and other tonal qualities.

Sonography

Sonography grants the ability to send out a beam of ultrasonic waves into an object that will immediately rebound back to the mage. Omnia allows these sonic reflections to be perceived cognitively by the Bard, granting them perception of the internal structures and fine details composing objects or people.

For reference, this spell effectively confers the same information a person in the real world is capable of parsing out of images generated by ultrasound machines. 

Clairaudience

Clairaudience is the method by which Bards may receive Omens through Fabula, with this sixth sense being activated manually and perceived aurally.

While this sense is crossplanar by virtue of the Fabula the Bard naturally possesses, it requires half again the Spell Reserves anywhere outside of Antarok.

Foil

Through Foil, the Bard may shift the flow of an unfolding story by causing another entity to fumble an action. At higher levels, it also may bestow a bit of luck on another entity in turn (designated by the caster).

Red Herring

Through Red Herring, a Bard may suggest a false Omen to a target or, at higher tiers, a group of targets. This Omen will come from the mage during the act of a performance of some kind, be it a song, spoken word, a play, etc. This performance may be as long or short as the mage desires.

In this context, an Omen would be a suggested future event or, for example, a story akin to a conspiracy theory. You can be quite creative with this spell, the sole requirement is that the Omen must be false at the time it is given.

Plot Twist

Plot Twist is the way in which a Bard may enact or alter stories happening across the planes. Through it, a Bard might draw people together who otherwise would’ve never met via happenstance, craft circumstances that otherwise would’ve never come to be, help themselves or their allies survive impossible odds, and so on.

Notes on Using Clairaudience & Plot Twist

Out of character, these two spells are utilized differently depending on what sort of content your PC is involved in.

Minor Alterations & Self-Lead Content

• For minor changes/Omens or in self-led plots, the writer can use the parameters of the skill tiers at their discretion.

Major Alterations & Collaborative Content

• For major changes that might affect the content of others or in plots/events led by others, the writer must propose their plan and ask for permission from the content authors/the writer running the plot.
  • The thread/content author may also veto your proposal, and in those cases they have the right to choose the outcome of your Plot Twist based on the parameters of the spell tier themselves.
• In the case of Clairaudience, the writer may ask for an Omen relevant to the thread or content at hand. While the author at hand must give you something per the parameters of the spell tier, the exact information revealed will always be at their discretion.
  • DO NOT get upset if the Omen given is vague or irrelevant to your purposes in this case; Clairaudience never guarantees specific information, even at Ascendant!
