:Believed by many to be Harbingers of Death, the Ban Sidhe are in fact creatures of the Wyld Fae. Drenched in the eldritch energy of the Ways and the Wild Places of the Nevernever, one foot perpetually in the Mortal Realm and one in the Realm of the Fae, the Ban Sidhe find themselves natural mouthpieces, mediators between the lost and the found, the living and the dead. | :Believed by many to be Harbingers of Death, the Ban Sidhe are in fact creatures of the Wyld Fae.

'''Glamour:''' You may cast minor veils and seemings. With a moment of concentration, you may draw a veil over something roughly person-sized, hiding it from sight and other means of detection. Or you may cause a person or object to appear differently than it normally does. An observer may attempt to discern the illusion, but to do so, they must have some legitimate suspicion that they might be seeing a glamour. Use Intellect to resist any disbelief attempt. | '''Glamour:''' You may cast minor veils and seemings.

| − | ''' | + | '''Ban Sidhe's Scream:''' As a Ban Sidhe, you are able to perceive ghosts and specters, spirits of the dead who still inhabit the Mortal Realm. You are able to speak freely with such spirits and they can speak to you. Once per session you can concentrate and let out a scream that reverberates across the Veil, drawing the spirits around you closer to the Mortal Realm where they can be seen and heard by all, granting you an additional level of scale on any action where the presence of the dead might affect the outcome. |

| − | '''Wild Magic:''' | + | '''Wild Magic:''' You can tap into the energies of the Ways between the Mortal Realm and the Wild (unalligned) places of the Nevernever, twisting reality in subtle but significant ways. In game terms, you may perform any of the four basic actions with understated and ephemeral magical effects that resist being identified or even acknowledged by those looking on. Unlike Evocation, that tends to be flashy and in-your-face, often leaving behind obvious signs that magic has been performed, Wild Magic tends to nudge things just enough that the inclination of reality is to simply 'snap' back into place the moment the magic is spent, and those who witnessed it tend to mentally rewrite whatever they think they saw with something more plausible. |
