The Power of the Night-Folk

The World of Darkness is full of strange and powerful beings. Ancient vampires, angry werewolves, anxious ghosts, and alluring fae all have powers that mages often need five or more spheres to reproduce. These powers can be among the most sought after by mages, such as immortality, or simply complicated and useful, like oneiromancy. Even when all of the requirements are possible, few mages have the breadth to take advantage of them.

Through the Lens of the Avatar

Some mages, however, can. Usually through a connection to vampires, werewolves, ghosts, or the fae, they can gain access to minor spheres simulating their powers. These foreign magicks can be learned by any mage, though finding a teacher without the appropriate connections is nigh impossible.

This book contains:

  • Twelve minor spheres, three related to each of the four other Night-Folk
  • Reworks of the merits Ghoul, Kinfolk, Kinain, and Medium to fit a common framework

Some thoughts:

First, a minor correction: under the Wyrm Minor Sphere, you mention that mages with this Sphere who fall into Quiet invariably fall into the Jhor variety of it. In M20, Jhor isn’t a type of Quiet; that’s Morbidity.

Second, I would say that all three of the Kinfolk Spheres should include narrow versions of Spirit: Wyrm is focused on Wyrm Spirits and Weaver on Weaver Spirits; and so too should Wyld let you interact with Wyld Spirits. It’s a violation of the “four major Spheres associated with each Minor Sphere” rule that Book of Fragments established; but it seems like an appropriate violation. More generally, I end to think that Wyld needs to do more than just messing with Patterns: interacting with Wyld spirits is part of that, but more should be done with creativity than just sensing it. Though admittedly, there’s a lot of overlap between that and the Sphere of Dreams.

Third, there are several of these Minor Spheres that I’d have no problem...See more

Scanned image
These products were created by scanning an original printed edition. Most older books are in scanned image format because original digital layout files never existed or were no longer available from the publisher.

For PDF download editions, each page has been run through Optical Character Recognition (OCR) software to attempt to decipher the printed text. The result of this OCR process is placed invisibly behind the picture of each scanned page, to allow for text searching. However, any text in a given book set on a graphical background or in handwritten fonts would most likely not be picked up by the OCR software, and is therefore not searchable. Also, a few larger books may be resampled to fit into the system, and may not have this searchable text background.

For printed books, we have performed high-resolution scans of an original hardcopy of the book. We essentially digitally re-master the book. Unfortunately, the resulting quality of these books is not as high. It's the problem of making a copy of a copy. The text is fine for reading, but illustration work starts to run dark, pixellating and/or losing shades of grey. Moiré patterns may develop in photos. We mark clearly which print titles come from scanned image books so that you can make an informed purchase decision about the quality of what you will receive.

Original electronic format
These ebooks were created from the original electronic layout files, and therefore are fully text searchable. Also, their file size tends to be smaller than scanned image books. Most newer books are in the original electronic format. Both download and print editions of such books should be high quality.
