Telecommunication

From The World Is A Vampire

Level 3.

This modern magic allows the caster to influence what is displayed on a television set. The caster can create a picture to communicate with people near the set or create fictional stories for broadcast: "We interrupt our regularly scheduled program..." Since the thaumaturge can view images from the set itself, this ritual also serves as an effective surveillance device.

System: Any television the thaumaturge has touched within the last week is subject of the effects of this ritual. Each success allows the caster to view and communicate through the television for five minutes, during which time the thaumaturge drops into a meditative state. He can observe everything from the television and can regulate everything that appears on the set, whether he chooses to use broadcast signals or the fruits of his won imagination.
