| − | *When You See It (Mysterium Psychic Assault Rote: Resolve + Occult + Mind) (3) | + | *Rote Name (Rote Requirement X/Rote Requirement X) |
| − | The mage draws upon occult principles, such as those the Lovecraftian mythos were based on, and projects them onto the minds of his victims, resulting in instant catatonia and psychosomatic injury from the sheer insult to the fabric of their psyches.
| + | |
| − | *Knowing The Rhythm Of The Heart (Mysterium Emotional Urging Rote: Resolve + Investigation + Mind) (2)
| |
| − | Armoring his soul against the infiltrating influence of another mind, the magus discerns the threads of emotional resonance within a soul and plays on them to produce any desired feeling within his victim.
| |
| − | *Stitch In Time (Mysterium Perfect Timing Rote: Resolve + Composure + Time) (1)
| |
| − | Typically used to augment his mundane capabilities, this rote simultaneously steels the magus' mind and stills his heart, allowing him to perceive the most perfect time to act and take advantage of it without hesitation.

| | ==Background== | | ==Background== |
| − | For the most part, Ethan Lim was a normal boy. He led a normal life in a normal household and went to a normal school and was eventually conscripted, like all Singaporean males. He was posted to a normal unit and became a normal infantryman and served his two and a half years of National Service like everyone else. <br>
| + | |
| − | <br>
| |
| − | Then, on the day when he had completed his term of active duty, as he was crossing the street to get to his apartment on the other side, a car swerved out of control and struck him, sending him flying a good twenty meters down the road. Though he survived (but was left comatose for a good six months) by some miracle, but the real wonder is what happened to him in that hospital bed. During his time, he underwent a Harrowing, and at the end, he reached the Watchtower and awoke Awakened. His body had deteriorated during his months of convalescence, and his medical treatment had been ruinously expensive, but for better or worse, he was alive and well... and capable of working his will on the world. His beginning manipulations were crude things, compelling the prettier nurses to sponge-bathe him more than was necessary, but then he remembered the Path of Scourging that he had walked to the Iron Tower, and purged himself of such childish weaknesses. Even the physiotherapists commented that he showed a remarkable resilience to pain, though in truth Ethan felt the agony as keenly as anyone else; he simply didn't find mere pain worth making noise about. <br>

| |
| − | His place in the Biological Science course at NTU was still reserved for him... but before the term started, he was approached by a representative of the local Mysterium, who had sensed the emergence of a new comrade in the Art, and offered him a place in their Order. Though Ethan was initially suspicious, he soon resolved that just as the Mysterium used him, he would use them in return.<br>

| |
| − | And so, our hero enters university, and a new stage of his life...<br>
