The soul of a mage cannot be removed with Fraying alone; Awakened Gnosis holds it tight, requiring mastery to prise lose. This spell Unmakes the protective metaphysical layers of a mage’s soul, ripping it free and placing it into a container. That container can either be a specially prepared vessel such as one created with “Soul Jar,” or the caster can take the soul into her own body. While without a soul, the subject suffers from the Soulless Condition. If this spell is cast on a subject who is already under the effects of the Soulless Condition, he is stepped up to the Enervated Condition — though the mage does not gain immediate access to his soul, since it is already missing.

If the mage chooses not to capture her subject’s soul immedi- ately, it goes into Twilight where it waits to return to its owner.

+1 Reach The subject falls immediately under the effects of the Enervated Condition. With an additional Reach, the subject can be placed under the effects of the Thrall Condition.
