Someone who has successfully created a Sigil may try to recapture the feeling of investing virtue without the whole process, this can be done but at a -3 penalty. If they succeed subsequent attempts no longer suffer -3. This can remove the requirements for a crafts roll, a photocopy of the Sigil works just as well. It's also possible to use an alternative image providing that it represents the creators idea of virtue. Religious imagery, philosophy quotes or national symbols for example. This provides +2 on the roll (also award +2 to anyone who actually associates the traditional Sigil with virtue) but has a significant drawback: Unlike the Sigil of Marduk it is meaningless to Leviathans who only require a single success to pass. | Someone who has successfully created a Sigil may try to recapture the feeling of investing virtue without the whole process, this can be done but at a -3 penalty.

A Leviathan's two forms actually age at different rates. Their human form ages as normal until it simply stops ageing somewhere in the mid 60s. In Apotheosis a Leviathan's biological age is affected by self image, genetics, and slowed by certain Channels as well as chronological age. It's entirely possible for a Leviathan's transformed body to become younger. |

Very few people even have any way of telling the biological age of a Leviathan in Apotheosis. A Leviathan cannot use Depth one or two to try and look younger. They'll simply have a mix of old human and young Leviathan matter. |
