Sometimes you just get the feeling
you know someone, can trust him or
are meant to be his friend. A mage with
this spell can generate that sensation,
regardless of whether or not it is genuine.
This sort of normally spontaneous
connection can make a chosen person
feel more at ease in the mage’s presence
and may help to lay the groundwork for a friendship, love affair
or even just a con.
Each success adds one die to the dice
pool of the first Social Attribute-based
roll made for the mage in regard to an
individual she meets for the first time.
The result of that first impression tends
to stick with the subject and color the
rest of her interactions with the mage.
Free Council Rote: A Face You Can Trust
It helps when you can back up charm
with some substance, but charm alone
can do the trick if it’s possessed in
abundance. Council mages make use
of this rote to set the tone for interactions
with others. Members of the Silver
Ladder are also known to use the same
magic, seeing nothing wrong in stacking
the deck in their own favor.
