ANDERS MAGE PAGE 2.0

Thank you very much for the compliments about "The Sea of Dust". Someone asked if the Kia was the same thing as the Avatar. In my opinion this is almost true. The Kia is the "True" avatar, the unchanging divine spark. What other mages call the Avatar is the Kia plus additional fragments of the soul, a kind of conglomerate. This is, of course, only my personal opinion and I doubt even the Euthanatos agree with me.

How does a Euthanatos know who is ready for the Good Death?

The most important methods are psychology, magick and intuition. In my campaign, one of the players is a Euthanatos. He is constantly on the lookout for people to help. He studies them with the rotes below, trying to find people with much entropy inside. He also tries to psychologically decide if they are ready. And finally, there is the important intuition. A good Euthanatos will feel if a person is ready.

However, the character's nature is Judge. His problem is that he tends to decide that someone is ready and kill without really knowing if it is right. The nagging suspicion that he sometimes make mistakes is slowly making itself felt...

In these rotes the mage points his bone towards the subject and feels the results in the doll (yes, I know that Mind has rattle as a focus among Euthanatos but I think the doll is more appropriate in these rotes). If the subject is young and healthy the doll will feel warm and alive, while if the subject is suicidal it will slump together.

The Abyss of the Mind (Entropy 1, Mind 2)

The mage feels the entropy in someone's mind. In this way the mage may get an impression of how strong the person really is, and if they have any weak points, like deep traumas, neuroses or guilt.

The Abyss of the Body (Entropy 1, Life 1)

The mage feels the entropy in someone's body. Weak points, age, sickness and wounds will become apparent. The mage will know if the person has a long time left to live or is dying in some way.

The Abyss of the Soul (Entropy 1, Prime 1)

The mage feels the entropy in someone's flow of quintessence. Normally this is very small, but in some people the flow is disturbed. This is often a sign that something is very wrong with the person. It could be that dangerous magick has hurt him or that his Kia is disturbed in some way. Euthanatoi become very interested in these people and will study them as much as possible before deciding what to do.

Delving the Well of Life (Time 2, Spirit 1, Entropy 1, Life 1, Corr. 2)

By DataWolf. The Rote allows the user to look deeply into the destiny of the subject. Though there are personal variations, the usual model is to view the lifespan as a strand, containing moments of the individual's past and future history. Time, Life and Correspondance are used to formulate the "strand" which represents the person, while Entropy is used to determine the level of Entropy which the present and remaining lifespan will incur. Those with important things to do and accomplish which will further benefit the world have brilliant, distinct threads. When the life has run its course and the level of Entropy begins to increase, they become dim and indistinct. Finally, Spirit is used to determine what the state of the soul would be if Life were to be terminated. Those who would Transcend end their strands in a brilliant flash. Those who are destined for Oblivion vanish with no trace. When a person is destined to do neither, it blurs away but does not vanish entirely. Other variations on this Rote use different means of symbolism, often culturally based. This Rote does not function on Kindred but there are variants which would accomplish the same effect.
