This spell is changed to Mind ●●●.

Sometimes it’s better to allow another mage a glimpse into your mind rather than block him completely. A closed mind causes more suspicion than an open mind that reveals only what you choose.

• Practice: Veiling
• Action: Instant
• Duration: Prolonged (one scene)
• Aspect: Covert
• Cost: None

With a single success on the casting roll, the mage may add a layer of conscious thought over her own. This layer contains information chosen by the mage during the casting. Repeated attempts to read a mind protected by this layer of false thoughts may reveal the shallowness of thinking. Suspicious mages may roll Resolve + Composure minus the Potency of the Still Waters casting, to confirm the mind they are attempting to read has been altered.

Adamantine Arrow Rote: Discrimination

• Dice Pool: Resolve + Subterfuge + Mind

Members of the Adamantine Arrow use this spell to sow false information about their practices, tactics and suspicions among their enemies. Tricking an enemy into believing false information can create a large advantage in battle, whether that battle is physical or political in nature.
