The shadowy script is light sensitive and exposure to daylight automatically destroys it. The power is automatically successful in permeating the paper with shadowy text which cannot be detected without the dual invocation of both Auspex level one - 'Heightened Senses' and Obtenebration level one - 'Shadow Play.' Incidentally, this technique works equally well on any flat surface regardless of the material over which it is invoked. System No roll is necessary to invoke this discipline technique, but the player must spend a point of blood to invoke the power. But, the young magister knew instinctively that if he wished to see the text once more, all he need do is invoke this technique once more. With the discontinuation of these two disciplines, the shadowy text vanished leaving only a virgin page. When his letter was done, the young magister dismissed his preternatural senses and ceased to play with the shadows. Lo and behold - upon the page appeared dark characters in his personal handwriting. As his senses sharpened and the shadows deepened, he began to gesture as if writing with a pen. In his dream, he took a sheet of paper and invoked the most basic powers of Auspex and Obtenebration simultaneously. The solution came to him as he dreamed one summer day. This solution was created by a young magister who wished to write to his sire without risking personal exposure or revealing sensitive information to watchful enemies or opponents. Requisite Disciplines: Auspex 1, Fortitude 1, Obtenebration 1ĭescription The Lasombra Antitribu are a subversive lot and have need of ways to communicate secretly without having to utilize Thaumaturgy the province of the Warlocks or rely on the computer encryption of technically savvy, but easily manipulated mortals.
