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: [[Spell Practice::Veiling]]

* [[Duration]]: [[Duration::Prolonged]] (one scene)
* '''Aspect:''' [[Spell Aspect::Covert]]
* Cost:  [[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 [[Pool::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: [[Pool::Resolve]] + [[Pool::Subterfuge Skill|Subterfuge]] + [[Pool::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.
