==== Insidious Creature (Ancestral Channel) ====
''When the Leviathan speaks, or sends thoughts and dreams, the message tangles up the reason of the recipient, ensnaring the mind.''

Insidious Creature is a Finesse Attribute boosting Channel. It benefits Manipulation and has the following unique powers:
* “Depth 0”: Birthright of Sanctity
* “Depth 1”: Wake-vulnerable creatures that were in the Leviathan's presence while he was at this Depth or deeper suffer the Leviathan's (Manipulation+Sheol) as a penalty to remember specific facts about the scene and must actively suspect there is something unusual about the Leviathan before they can roll (with penalty) to attempt to discern his heritage. 
* “Depth 4”: As above, and if the Leviathan's (Manipulation + Intimidation + Sheol) is greater than a wake-vulnerable individual's (Willpower + Power Trait), that individual ''must'' roll at least (Leviathan's Sheol) successes on a memory check to recall any specific details about the scene.
* “Depth 6”: As above, and if the Leviathan focuses his Wake on a subject whose (Willpower + Power Trait) is less than his (Manipulation + Sheol), the Leviathan may fabricate the subject's memories regarding the scene. Targets who can successfully recall the Leviathan (subject to the Depths 1 and 4 abilities of this channel) may regain their true memories.  

'''Adaptations'''
* Serpent's Tongue (OO) - In Depth 1 and lower, the Leviathan's presence destabilizes the moral compasses of others. When the Leviathan acts to convince a subject to perform an action that would fulfill their Vice, the subject's Morality Trait is considered (Sheol) lower for purposes of contemplating or executing the suggested course of action. An Envious man could be talked into murdering his boss instead of stealing from him, a Wrathful leader persuaded to exterminate dissidents rather than imprisoning them, or a Proud human convinced to eat the forbidden fruit instead of looking at it.
* Master of the Veil (OO or OOOO): The Leviathan can shut off this Channel's effects on memories reflexively and activate it as an instant action. With the four-dot version of this Adaptation, he may apply these effects selectively, omitting any allies in the radius.
