=== General Glamour & Banality Mechanics ===

Under these alternate rules the fundamental nature of Glamour and Banality have changed.

Glamour is not so much a “creative force” as implied in canon.  Instead it’s a sort of "unformed", mysterious stuff like the Mists of DA: Fae.  It tends to be found in places of uncertainty, spuspense, and mystery, or where the laws aren’t clearly laid down, or where dramatic changes are about to take place.  Often it can be felt most palpably when one is alone and in unusual circumstances.  Mortals in a high Glamour environment tend to feel inspired, excited, or ready to take action, but they are also more likely to be afraid or imagine things than they normally would.

In a similar way Banality isn’t an inherently awful limiting force.  It is the substance of form and stability akin to the Weaving of DA:Fae.  Enough Banality in an area tends to make mortals feel contented and secure.  Banality is encountered in well traveled, well known places, in very structured social situations and anywhere else there is a large degree of order.
