Saudade:
New Cascade Spells:
Call the Maya:
Cascade Ritual(levels 1-6)
Saudade draws it's power from the Maya, the gods of South America. These powerful spirits form partnerships with the Teomallki, channeling their power back into the living world. This series of spells allows the caster to become a conduit for that power, granting them multiple benefits. This spell must be bought at each level of Saudade. Wu Tian and Amenti can also learn this spell due to their bonds to the gods of egypt and china with identical results.
Level 1: Tap the wellspring
Lifeforce: 1
Wits + Saudade diff 7
This spell allows the caster to tap into the link they have with their patron. Upon casting the patron bestows a small fragment of their essence upon the caster, who can hold onto this fleeting power for a number of rounds equal to their successes on the spell's wits + saudade roll. Any time they make a roll, they can expend this power to gain a number of bonus dice on that roll equal to their balance/direction/quest rating. Once this bonus is used the power is expended and the spell ends.
Level 2: Harden the Mind and Body
Lifeforce: 2
Stamina + Saudade diff 7
The second level of this spell allows the caster to deepen their connection to their patron. The caster rolls Stamina + Saudade. If this roll is successful the caster is bolstered by the power of their patron, granting them a bonus to soak rolls and willpower checks to resist any action that violates their morals equal to their ranks in Saudade. This power can be used a number of times equal to the successes on the roll, and the spell fades at the end of the scene.
Level 3: Bind the Power
Lifeforce: 3
Manipulation + Saudade diff 7
The third level of this spell allows the caster to bind the power of their patron to a place,
