Talents
1. Resist Temperature (T-1)
Adepts of this College suffer 1 (+ 1 for each 4 or fraction of 4 Ranks) less Damage Points from either heat or cold (or fire or ice) used as
weapons. They are immune to extremes of temperature. The Experience Multiple for the Talent is 150.
2. Maintain dominance (T-2)
This talent is essential to the proper use of spells that maintain control of persons, animals or objects after concentration has been
released by the mage. Any thing formerly controlled by the mage that is within sight will still respond to commands if the mage rolls
under 2 X WP +4% per rank. If the mage fails the roll the link is lost. Concentration is assumed broken if the mage cast a control spell
on other targets. The Experience Multiple for this Talent is 200.

General Knowledge Rituals
1. Ritual of Kinetic Symmetry (Q-1)
The savant is able to use this ritual to bolster psychical characteristics by the use of integrated kinetic energy. The ritual takes one
hour to perform and has a 25% of success. If successful the savant is able to 5 +1 points per 2 ranks on to either PS, MD, AG or half that
number on to TMR. These points must go to one attribute and the savant’s body can be subject to this ritual one enhancement at a time.
The savant will also be able to maintain high levels of activity without becoming fatigued. The effects of the ritual will last 2 hours per
rank. Backfire will result in the lowering of the target attribute by that number of points for 6 hours. The experience point multiple of this
ritual is 400 per rank.
