Editing LeviathanTempest:ChapterThree (section)

=== Mechanics of the Wake ===

* '''Region of Control''': The Wake fills an area around the Leviathan, with its diameter determined by his Sheol. Within this area, beings can feel subtle psychic pressure. Beings both inside this area and in the Leviathan's physical presence are subject to the Wake's full effect.

* '''The Fringes''': Outside of the Leviathan's presence, beings are not mechanically affected but do feel a pronounced sense of weight and danger.

* '''Fully Affected''': Normal beings - both sentient and animal - are subject to the full effects of the Wake.

* '''Potentially Affected''': Beings whose Supernatural advantage is lower than the Sheol of the Leviathan are vulnerable to that Leviathan's Wake. They are otherwise immune. 

* '''Not Affected''': Leviathans, Atolls and Ahabs are always immune to the Wake's effects. 

* '''Ease of Control''': The Leviathan does not suffer the unskilled penalty for using Social skills against beings subject to the Wake.

* '''Psychic Pressure''': When using Intimidation against beings subject to the full effect of the Wake, the Leviathan benefits from rote action. This bonus extends to all Social Skill rolls when the subject is one of the Leviathan's Beloved or for a single roll with the expending of one Ichor per Willpower of the Target.

* '''Focusing the Wake''': Leviathans can deliberately focus the wake on one vulnerable target, expending one Ichor. For the rest of the scene, the victim is subject to the following effects:
** If their Willpower is lower than the Leviathan's (Presence + Sheol), they subtract the Leviathan's Sheol from all Persuasion rolls against him.
** If their Willpower is lower than the Leviathan's (Manipulation + Sheol), they subtract the Leviathan's Sheol from all Subterfuge rolls against him.
** If their Willpower is lower than the Leviathan's (Composure + Sheol), they subtract the Leviathan's Sheol from all Empathy rolls against him.
