==== Stalker's Shifting Hide (Ancestral Channel) ==== ''The Leviathan's Primordial form cannot be perceived clearly by its prey.'' * “Depth 0”: Birthright of Predation * “Depth 1”: When the character performs Stealth checks to hide his presence, on a success he is always considered at least partially concealed. (Attempts to spot him and Ranged Attacks at -2 against him) While stealth may be broken by initiating combat, the Leviathan's concealment does not fade until scene's end. * “Depth 2”: As above, but now he is considered substantially rather than partially concealed (-3). * “Depth 3”: As above, but now he adds his Sheol to uses of the Stealth skill. * “Depth 4”: As above, but now the Leviathan is also completely odorless or silent when the Depth 1 ability of this Channel is activated (The character chooses one when this channel is acquired). * “Depth 5”: As above, but now the Depth 1 ability of this channel is reflexive. * “Depth 6”: As above, but now he is considered completely invisible rather than substantially concealed (Opponents are considered to be Fighting Blind against him). An opponent who successfully strikes the Leviathan once treats him only as substantially concealed for the rest of the scene. '''Adaptations''' * Ambush (OO) - Whenever the Leviathan successfully surprises and wounds an enemy, he gains 1 Ichor. * Broken Lens (OOO) - In Depth 3 and lower, those using tools of mortal make (binoculars, flashlights, etc.) to attempt to overcome the Leviathan's Stealth roll will suffer unexplained hardships. Lenses get blurry, lights flicker, and so on. Equipment with a rating of less than the Leviathan's Sheol is effectively negated and provides no bonus. * Clouded Eye (OOO) - In Depth 3 and lower, the Leviathan may use his focused wake to dull the senses. A subject whose Willpower is lower than the Leviathan's (Stealth + Sheol) will subtract the Leviathan's Sheol from all Wits-based rolls to detect him. * Slip Sideways (OOOO, requires Sheol 4 and Rain Dance of the Tempest) - In Depth 6, an exceptional success on the character's Dexterity +Stealth + Sheol roll permits the Leviathan to find a bolthole outside of normal space. No non-supernatural methods may detect his presence as long as he remains in his current general position, and supernatural means must contest against his successes. Non-supernatural events that don't deal catastrophic (10+) damage to the surrounding region will neither affect or reveal the Leviathan, and the Leviathan's Stealth will act as armor to insulate him against even apocalyptic mundane events. He will be visible afterwards (after all, whatever happened probably managed to move him.) Attacking, speaking, or moving will also end this effect, though the Leviathan gains the benefits of surprise.
