Suddenly, your grasp your head in agony as pain shoots through your
brain.  In your head, voices babble, and strange images flash.  Your
vision grows spotty, as you gasp for air, literally forcing yourself
to breathe.  You can feel your heart slow as your near unconsciousness
and possibly a coma.

Your brain is being re-wired - first for more capacity, and then that
new capacity is filled with data.

As fast as it started, it ends.  Your knees are weak, your breath
ragged and your head is still feeling the after-effects.  But
strangely, you know that you know things now that you did not know
before.  You know how to use these new "powers", and what they do, but
not how they _really_ work.  

Your powers:

Celerity (3)  - 16 points
Fortitude (3) - 16 points
Potence (2)   - 8 points
Protean - Gleam of Red Eyes - .5 points


Augementing Disciplines
-----------------------

Augmenting Disciplines (such as celerity) do not require
additional learning, but are purchased according to the following
table:

Power Level..................Point Cost
1 ........................... 4 points
2 ........................... 8 points
3............................ 16 points
4 ........................... 24 points
5 ........................... 48 points

Only one level of an augmented discipline can ever be in effect at one
time in order to achieve cumulative effects.  For example, a user
cannot invoke the Celerity Discipline at Power Level 1 twice to
increase his move by +2.
 

Fatigue Points
--------------

  Fatigue Points are a separate pool.  The base pool is defined as (HT+ST)/2.
 An extra fatigue point can be purchased for 5 XP, up to a maximum of
 10 points.  Fatigue points are regained at the rate of 1 point per
 hour if the characters are resting, 1 per 3 hours if the characters
 are engaged in "normal" activities, and not at all if combat occurs.
 Each level of power drains 2 points of fatigue per level of power.

  Effects of Fatigue
  ------------------
  For every point of fatigue a charcter has, his HT (and all HT
  related attributes, including Hit Points)  is reduced by that
  level.  As fatigue is rested off, HT is restored


  Fatigue for HP
  --------------
  Characters may expend 1 Fatigue point to heal 1 HP



Using Powers
------------

Each power, unless noted, takes one full turn of concentration.  The
power is invoked at the beginning of the next turn.

Discipline: Celerity (Augmenting Discipline) - Tier Level 1

   Using the Celerity Discipline allows a users to move extremely
  quickly and take multiple actions in a single turn.  
   When a user invokes Celerity, no skill roll is required.  Its
  affect begin on the next turn (after the turn of
  concentration). The following chart shows the advantages gained by
  the individual power levels.

   Power 1	  Adds 1 to Move for 10 minutes
   Power 2	  Adds 2 to Move; 1 extra attack per turn; duration 30
		    mins
   Power 3	  Adds 4 to Move; 1 extra attack per turn; duration 1
		    hour
   Power 4	  Adds 6 to Move; 2 extra attacks per turn; duration 2
		    hours
   Power 5	  Adds 10 to Move; 2 extra attacks per turn; duration
		    6 hours

   Note that if a character wishes to save Fatigue points, he can use
  a lower power than his maximum Celerity.  If someone has Power 5,
  for example, he can use Power 3 and spend only 6 points of Fatigue
  instead of 10.

   If the GM is using the Altered Time Rate ability, Celerity can
  _not_ be combined with ATR for added effect.



Discipline: Fortitude (Augmenting Discipline) - Tier Level 1

   Fortitude describes a type of supernatural toughness and vigor
  which allows users to resist harm.  With the Fortitude power, users
  can resist damage from weapons by preventing the harm from them.
  This translates to an increase in the user's Damage Resistance.  To
  use Fortitude, a user simply concentrates for one turn and the
  bonuses appear on the next turn.

   The chart below shows the DR bonuses and duration given each power
  level in Fortitude.

  Power 1	+2 DR; duration 10 mins
  Power 2	+4 DR; duration 30 mins
  Power 3	+8 DR; duration 1 hour
  Power 4	+16 DR; duration 2 hours
  Power 5	+32 DR; duration 6 hours

Discipline: Potence (Augmenting Discipline) - Tier Level 1
   This discipline allows for physical might that allos for great feats
  to be accomplished, far beyond what a normal mortal could perform.
  Potence allows users to jump and leap greater distances, lift
  greater weights, and inflict greater harm upon objects and
  indivduals when they are punched or hit.
   The power level of this Discipline defines the increase in Strength
  and the duration.  To use this Discipline, the user simply
  concentrates for a turn, and his Strength is increased starting on
  the next.  The chart below shows the advantage gained for each power
  level.  
  
  Power 1	+1 ST; duration 10 minutes
  Power 2	+2 ST; duration 30 minutes
  Power 3	+4 ST; duration 1 hour
  Power 4	+6 ST; duration 2 hours
  Power 5	+10 ST; duration 6 hours


Discipline: Protean
  Gleam of Red Eyes - Power Level 1
   With a successful roll, this power allows the caster to see
  perfectly in normal darkness.  Limited vision is even possible in
  absolute darkness (-5 to Vision rolls and combat).  While this power
  is activated, the caster's eyes glow an eerie red.
   This power lasts one hour per point of success.
