Editing Uriel Arcadia (section)

=Aspects=

'''High Concept:''' Magical James Bond

''Uriel is a spy. And since entering the Grand Stair, a sorcerer, but at the end of the day a spy first and foremost. He has all the expertise of a life of tradecraft brought to bear in all its many fields. And yet sometimes the Bond really bleeds through into the Gossamer, even when Uriel doesn't want it.''
*Invoke to: Exercise your mastery of tradecraft, identify potential assets.
*Compel to: Suffer any of those various Bond tropes, or anything that can go wrong in espionage, become hyper-aware (paranoid is such an ugly word).

'''Trouble:''' Tangled Web of Misadventures

''When getting to grips with the Gossamer worlds without a support network, even with the best of abilities, mistakes are made. Things can go south. Uriel has done well enough, but behind him are the remnants of would-be foes, hidden loose ends, debris of multiversal espionage and troubleshooting. Some of it might even find him.''
*Invoke to: Draw on information from past operations, obtain access to previous allies or contacts.
*Compel to: Find old foes coming out of the woodwork, learn consequences from past missions will be coming back to haunt you.

'''Personal:''' Every Man Has His Price

''Uriel has seen it proven again and again. Money, love, power, sex, a cause, there is always a lever to get someone to do something - it's one of the fundamental principles of espionage. No one is truly incorruptible.''
*Invoke to: Enhance bribery, identify someone's weak points, resist bribery (knowing all the classic tricks helps).
*Compel to: Discover your mark resists temptation or is (of all things) incorruptible, find your transaction noticed by a third party.

'''Sorcery:''' Wizard in Business Casual

''Uriel has a proficiency in Sorcery, developed from a hodgepodge of tomes, teachers, observations, all thrown together in a 'whatever works' methodology. Adaptability and getting the most out of the basic tools of magic are his foci.''
*Invoke to: Know information about a given magical person/place/thing, use your blend of arcane methods in an innovative and useful fashion.
*Compel to: Face difficulty when a more formal and coherent mystic school has the advantage over yours, when other mages express disdain for your unorthodox conglomerate.

'''Empathy:''' Sixth Floor Security

''Uriel was already developing the Empathy ability even before he became a Warden, thanks to the memory and mind-warping effects of his stay in the Complex. The need to control his own mind and the surroundings bred the basis of psychic power within him.''
*Invoke to: Strengthen your use of psychic power, to resist mental intrusion and/or assault.
*Compels to: Suffer Complex flashbacks whether triggered by chance or deliberately by opponents.  

'''Warden of the Grand Stair:''' Lord of Gossamer
*This Aspect cannot be Invoked or Compelled.
