| Control Ghost is Covert
|
The mage can force a ghost to perform an action. A single, simple command (“Attack!” “Flee!” “Stand
there!”) can be issued per success.
Complex commands require multiple successes. For example, “Go to the Contessa’s mansion and steal the Borgia Diamond!” might require three successes. If the ghost has not completed the action by the time the Duration expires, it does not have to finish the job. It must, however, work to complete the command as soon as possible.
