Duat's location is left a bit ambiguous. It might be in the Underworld, though the books also hint that the realm is one of the Lower Depths. I think it's one of those things that's going to depend on the needs of any given chronicle.

If any Sin-Eaters do manage to get there, the Judges are going to be pissed.

A potentially useful spell I just thought of:

House Whisperer (Space •)
Practice: Knowing
Primary Factor: Potency
Suggested Rote Skills: Crafts, Streetwise, Survival

The mage tunes into a location to learn its secrets. With an instant action, the mage can ask a number of the following questions equal to the spell's Potency:

• How is the location demarcated?
• Where are the entrances and exits?
• What is the location's dot rating in Safe Place/Sanctum/Haven/etc?
• What is the nature of the location's inhabitants?

Ah, I see. It's the "at the moment they enter the Fallen World" line that made me believe that Hung Spell had to be cast simultaneously with the target spell or spells....

I apologize if this has been asked before; it seems like a topic that has probably already been discussed to oblivion, but searching the forum did return any pertinent results.

What is the reasoning behind Hung Spell's being a spell and not an attainment? Is it so that it can be keyed off Duration? To hang a spell, a mage either has to cast it as a combined spell, or (if one's Gnosis is less than 3) requisition help from another Apprentice of Time. Which, I suppose, encourages cooperation, trading of favors, guanxi, etc.

So, I'm currently staying at a hostel in France whose WiFi firewall blocks Kickstarter for some reason (as well as, probably by accident, a number of websites for LBGT travelers. . .). How many days does the campaign have left? I'd like to donate, perhaps even at the Create an Era level, if any remain.

This is incredibly my jam.

Clarity can be threatened by sources outside a changeling's control. When they're caught unawares, the Lost are vulnerable to gaslighting and emotional manipulation.

It's not Poland per se, but Werewolf set in the Siberian gulag could have promise....

I would rule that, so long as you are investing one dot in Resources in self-defense classes, you gain an extra die on Brawl rolls from the constant practice. If you stop investing the dot, then you eventually get out of shape and the extra die goes away.
