The character reassures friends and allies, protecting them against fear just as she protects herself.
Prerequisites: Mantle (Autumn) ••• or Court Goodwill (Autumn) •••••
Cost: 2 Glamour
Dice Pool: Presence + Expression + Mantle (Autumn) (– subject’s Resolve for any who resist) ({Presence}+{Expression}+{Mantle Rating} - Resolve for any who resist)
Action: Extended (one success per subject; each roll represents one minute of support)
Catch: Two of the subjects’ greatest fears are each other.
Roll Results
Dramatic Failure: The attempt to bolster the character’s allies fails. The character cannot try again until the next sunrise.
Failure: The character makes no progress.
Success: The character makes progress. If she reaches the required number of successes, she completes the effort. Affected allies are completely immune to mundane efforts to scare them, and supernatural efforts suffer a dice penalty equal to the dice penalty the character took invoking the Contract. This lasts the rest of the scene.
Exceptional Success: The protection lasts until the next sunrise.
