Aura of Power
Description: The mage channels quintessence into himself and his surroundings. He cannot control where it goes or how it manifests, and it will spread. The result will be that the mage will be quite noticeable, and appear more "real" than the background. It gives a definite impression of power. The negative side is that the quintessence attracts lots of "little nasties" and can suddenly ground into patterns, turning them more real too. Cult of Ecstasy perform this rote by watching light reflecting in the surface of a drink and then make a silent toast to themselves.
System: Each success will give one extra dice on social rolls.
