                                   SOMBRA



   The shadow becomes an extension of the Kindred's self, able to perform
   duties at extended distances away from the Kindred as if it was the
   Kindred. The shadow has no existence in itself. It is guided by the
   thoughts of the Kindred which requires the Kindred's concentration. If
   the Kindred's concentration is broken then the effect is broken and
   the shadow becomes one with the Kindred instantly. The shadow is not
   trapped away from the Kindred, it just ceases to exit away from the
   Kindred.

   Even in full darkness a shadow exists and can be called upon at all
   times.

   A Kindred with Auspex can test to perceive the presence of a shadow
   with a test of PERCEPTION + ALERTNESS. 1 successes perceives a
   presence close by but not the location or form. 2 successes perceives
   the location of a presence but not the form. 3 successes perceives the
   location and form of the presence.

   If one ability is invoked while another is being used (such as, Shadow
   Touch is used while using Shadow Eyes) but the second test is a normal
   failure then that indicates that the force was insufficient to cause
   the desired effect while a botch will require a concentration roll (
   Self-Control - Difficulty 7 ) for the shadow to continue its
   existence.

   * Shadow Eyes: The Kindred's shadow is sent to view places that the
   Kindred wishes not to be present at herself. The Kindred uses the
   shadow's presence to view another location. Such viewing does not
   allow the Kindred to perceive both her current location and the other
   location at the same time. This also, does not allow the Kindred to
   hear conversations only to see who or what is present. The shadow can
   even be used to read that which is clearly displayed (comprehension of
   the material is still dependant on the limitations of the Kindred).

   SYSTEM : Manipulation + Investigation Difficulty 5

   ** Shadow Senses: The Kindred's shadow is sent to other locations as
   in Shadow Eyes but it can both see and hear all that goes on.

   SYSTEM : Manipulation + Investigation Difficulty 7

   ** Shadow Touch: The Kindred's shadow can be sent to touch, move or
   lift small light objects ( a pen, piece of paper, button, etc ). The
   shadow gains a small amount of solid existence which will enable it to
   manipulate objects.

   This ability can be used in conjunction with other Shadow abilities.

   Example Spill coffee from a coffee cup across a page or part a curtain
   to see in side a room.

   SYSTEM : Dexterity + Alertness Difficulty 5

   *** Shadow Force: The Kindred's shadow can push with great force
   against an object be it a door or a person.

   SYSTEM : Strength + Brawl Difficulty 7

   **** Shadow Cloak: The Kindred's shadow will envelope the Kindred and
   hid her from view even her aura. Though Kindred with higher Auspex
   will be able to perceive past this cloaking.

   SYSTEM : Manipulation + Subterfuge Difficulty 7

   ***** Shadow Hold: The Kindred's shadow can carry/lift an object. So
   that the shadow could transport an object back to the awaiting hands
   of the Kindred. This option is limited by the object being able to
   pass unnoticed and unhindered by people, furniture and closed doors.
   The shadow many be able to pass unhindered by these things but the
   object does not take on the shadows properties.

   SYSTEM : Manipulation + Subterfuge Difficulty 9
