Possession
Willpower vs. Willpower
Demon and Devil types only
Note: The power of a demon or devil’s soul is tremendously strong and infuses the body they possess to create an immortal being with powerful regenerative and arcane capabilities. A Primary form is the true form or the form possessing the greatest totality of the demon or devil’s soul. A host form is another form the demon or devil possesses by splitting off parts of its soul. The Host has the same checks as the being they possess + demon or devil bonuses.
Basic Possession: To possess the body of another, possessor can challenge a target’s will to take over their body, with WP +1 WP per stamina level used vs. WP of target. If splitting soul to possess, Possessor transfers chosen amount of arcane levels (with equal loss to Primary form) to host form on success. No loss of will occurs with basic possession. Power is regained quickly as forms recovern +1 level per successful interactive arcane application. Possessor can also possess the form of a corpse without opposition.
1-{1-3} Phylactery – A percentage of the soul (1%-80% possesses a target object. Primary form has -% of their soul placed in object and loss of -1 WP per phylactery made. Phylactery has WP of possessor before loss of WP. Phylactery can have one called effect or contingency controlled by possessor’s will which is activated by a called trigger. Power of phylactery is equal to possessor’s magic roll + Soul Percent. Phylactery can only be destroyed by utter obliteration and with a greater power. Part of soul possessing object is also destroyed with object. If demon is killed (their soul destroyed) they can return through their phylactery or one of their phylacteries if they have more than one, by dispossessing their phylactery and possessing a new form.
2-{4-6} Empower Phylactery – A phylactery can be infused with more of the demon’s will to give it more power, -1 WP per additional effect or contingency at power equal to magic roll, or +1 level of power for pre-existing power.

4-{10-12} Possess the Dead – Possess a dead target with entire soul if making body a Primary Form and body regenerates to prime condition. If making an additional form, possess the dead for a -1% loss of soul, and a -2% loss of soul if regenerating form to prime condition
5-{13-15} Animal Possession – Possess and control a live animal, -1% soul per animal, permanently or temporarily. If an animal is killed, soul fracture returns to Primary Form. Animals can only channel arcane power through their limbs extremities, bite, or an aura surrounding body.
6-{16-18} Possession - Spirit leaves the body to possess any chosen, sentient, living form to create a new Primary Form. Prior body is dead while spirit does not possess it and will decay if not properly cared for.
7-{22-24} Split Possession – Part of the spirit is cloven away from Primary form to possess and control a live, sentient form (at 50% arcane level). Possessed form has half of the Primary Form’s arcane levels, and all normal skills and knowledge of primary form. Primary form has half +1 of its original arcane power. Both forms regain +1 level per successful interactive arcane application.
8-{19-21} Compound Possession – Split spirit to possess multiple targets at +1 Arcane level per -2% soul split between targets. Loss of -1 level arcane to Primary Form per -2% of soul split off. Primary Form loses arcane levels equal to those shared by host forms. All forms regain +1 arcane level per successful interactive arcane application.
Example: Demon possesses three targets with 6% soul each (-18% total) for loss of -9 levels arcane to primary form, while each target form has arcane level of 3.
9-{25-27} Renew Willpower – Recover lost willpower by +1, +1 per ace rolled. Willpower cannot be renewed beyond level 30.
10-{28-30} Renew Soul – Soul recovers from splitting by +1%, +1% per ace rolled. Soul cannot be renewed beyond 100%.
11-{31-35} Holistic Demon Phylactery – Create a Phylactery with no loss of Willpower to demon while Phylactery has WP equal to its creator’s. Effects of the Phylactery are determined by the demon’s will and can be a compound artifact or contingency, up to 1 effect and/or contingency, +1 effect and/or contingency per ace rolled.
12-{36-40} Holistic Possession – Possess multiple targets with no loss of power, up to 1, +1 per success. All willpower rolls must succeed.

Will of the Dagger: To drain -1 WP from bearer each time dagger is used and transfer will to the dagger, and for bearer to seek out the gate of Acheron in the Barren Lands and enter there.
