MIRACLE

Dread Power

The monster is capable of performing miraculous feats at the request of humans. Miracles include, but aren’t necessarily limited to:

  • Removing (or applying) any Condition or Tilt (or similar affliction not modeled by these mechanics.
  • Granting any Merit, Skill, or Attribute at 5 dots.
  • Causing someone to die.
  • Fulfilling an Aspiration of the victim.

The Horror cannot do any of these things unless explicitly asked to by a living human being. Some Horrors can grant vir- tually any wish imaginable, others might only be able to grant one very specific request. Sometimes it’s not the monster itself that grants the wish, but a part of its body; demon blood might cure all sickness, while the bile that seeps from the bandages of the One-Eyed King ensures that you’ll never be poor again. Most Horrors can only grant one to three wishes to a given person, and wishing for more wishes is, of course, verboten.

Finally, all magic of this sort comes with a price. When the Horror grants a victim’s wish, one of the victim’s Aspirations is destroyed utterly. The character will never be able to fulfill it or replace it with another Aspiration.
