Manifestations
These are the skills of your geist (and of ghosts). The skill is rolled and the result determines the power of the manifestation and what it can accomplish. The manifestation is often rolled, like a skill, for subsequent actions. Each manifestation can only be unlocked with one key at a time.
The Boneyard
The Boneyard allows the Sin-Eater to spread her awareness of a large area and to assert control over her environment, usually by triggering “haunting” effects. The Boneyard covers one zone per shift on the roll. The Sin-Eater's body remains in a trance-like state, requiring a Discipline roll to maintain the boneyard if injured with a difficulty equal to stress taken. They gain perception within the area and can perform maneuvers by manipulating elements specific to the key used to unlock it. Special perception is also gained through certain keys. They can also use other manifestations on those they perceive.
- Industrial: Perceive hidden passages, concealed safes and the like.
- Passion: Perceive the emotional states of thinking beings.
- Phantasmal: See through illusions and perceive invisible entities.
- Stigmata: Perceive ghosts and death stains.
The Caul
The Caul permits the Sin-Eater to reshape his own body as needed, often in esoteric and frightening ways.
The Curse
The Curse enables the Sin-Eater to afflict her enemies with strange curses and ailments and to subtly influence their minds.
The Marionette
The Marionette allows the Sin-Eater to control physical objects, animals and even other people, manipulating their bodies like a twisted puppeteer.
The Oracle
The Oracle grants the Sin-Eater heightened sensory powers, clairvoyance and even precognitive abilities.
The Rage
The Rage represents the Sin-Eater’s power to strike at others with pure, unadulterated power.
The Shroud
The Shroud governs effects which alter or improve the Sin-Eater’s own aura in some way, most often by strengthening it into a form of protection. The geist may materialize itself, forming around the Bound. Most versions of the Shroud add armor equal to the activation successes, but some do not.
