Name: Tyler Tian Huang
Age: Physically in his mid 20s, mentally slightly older due to timey wimey fairy bullshit.

Seeming: Wizened
  • Blessing: The Wizened are extraordinarily nimble. The player can spend one point of Glamour to gain the benefit of the 9 again rule on all dice pools involving Dexterity for the rest of the scene. This same nimbleness enables the Wizened to avoid harm in ways other beings can’t imagine. The player can also spend one point of Glamour to add the character’s Wyrd dots to his Dodge total (normally calculated as double Defense), for the rest of the scene. This only applies when the character is dodging (see the World of Darkness Rulebook, p. 156).
  • Curse: Spite infects the Wizened. It comes out in their appearance, and in their manner. Their appearance, which is rarely attractive, and their general tendency not to be approachable means that the Wizened don’t benefit from the 10 again rule on dice pools involving Presence. For the same reason, while Social Skills aren’t completely barred to them, the Wizened suffer a –2 dice untrained penalty when trying to use a Social Skill in which they have no dots, rather than the usual –1.
    Kith: Fatemaker
    Shapers of fate's patterns, knowledgeable in the art of talecrafting - and some of these Wizened may have skin like old parchment, with indecipherable words drifting across her papery flesh.

    Wyrd: 2/10
    Clarity: 7/10
    Court: Summer

    Contracts:
    Animation:
    Knowing Touch (●)
    [ Wyrd + Crafts ] The character talks to an object or device and learns of any damage it has suffered and the location and nature of all of its weak points. The object also tells her about any hidden spaces or secret compartments within it. To use this clause, the character must handle, examine and talk or whisper to the object or device for at least half a minute.
    Catch: The owner of the device asked the changeling to examine it. This catch does not function if the changeling owns the object in question.

    Instant Expertise (●●)
    [ Wits + Wyrd ] By touching a device and listening to its spirit, the changeling gains an instinctive knowledge of how to use it. This clause allows characters who have no idea how to use a particular device to use it without penalty and also provides characters trained in its use with additional expertise. To use this clause, the character must touch and fiddle with the device for two full turns before using it. This clause can be used on weapons, vehicles, scientific instruments, individual computer programs or any other device or tool. Changelings can even use this to gain bonuses at picking locks or disarming security systems.
    Catch: The character has at least 10 minutes to talk with the device to learn the secrets of its use.

    Fleeting Summer:
    Baleful Sense (●)
    [ Wits + Wyrd ] The character senses the greatest source of wrath nearby.
    Catch: The character is angry when he invokes this clause.

    Contracts of Hearth:
    Fickle Fate (●)
    The subject of Fickle Fate makes the roll for his next actively attempted instant action, whatever it is, at a –2 dice penalty. Actively attempted actions are those things the character consciously undergoes the effort of doing, not things that occur automatically or reflexively. For example, jumping from a moving car or performing an oratory before the duke would be an actively attempted action, while seeing if wounds force a character into unconsciousness or reflexively resisting some supernatural power would not be.




    Merits:
    Mantle (Summer Court) (●)
    Characters add four dice instead of three when they spend a point of Willpower on a Strength-based roll.
    Ambidextrous (●●●)
    Your character does not suffer the -2 penalty for using his off-hand in combat or to perform other actions.
    Eidetic Memory (●●)
    Your character has a near-photographic memory, being able to recall vast amounts of observed detail with astonishing accuracy. You do not normally need to make a roll for your character to remember an obscure fact or past experience, unless he is under stress (such as in combat). Under stress, there is a +2 modifier on any Intelligence + Composure or other Skillbased roll (say, Academics, to remember a fact) for memory recall.
    Iron Stamina (●)
    Each dot eliminates a negative modifier (on a one-for-one basis) when resisting the effects of fatigue
    or injury. Your character can push his body well past the limits of physical endurance when he has to, pressing on in the face of mounting exhaustion or pain. Perhaps he trained himself to go without sleep for days at a time in order to get through college, or a lifetime of sports has taught your character how to play through the pain no matter how bad it gets.

    Turn of the Tale
    The changeling can, when Talecrafting, spend an additional two points of Glamour on a Talecrafting roll. Doing so ensures that, upon success, the
    Changeling does not suffer a Cruel Twist of Fate (though such a twist will still feature in a dramatic failure no matter what).
