School Aqua (Water).
* Attribute: Manipulations.
* Primary emotions: peace, tranquility.
     The calm and tranquil seas provide mostly protective powers,
but their tides may shift quickly, roaring to destruction.  Aqua
is also the master of the calm, calculating mind, and powers that
allow for mind over matter.
     Aqua elementals are pools of water which may reshape
themselves in any form they wish.
* Special power: Flow: You are treated as if you had Joined with
a body water, though none is nessasary for your survival.
Aqua Aspect: Emotion.
Primary Emotion: peace.
Bane: susceptibility:  You are affected as per calm at all times.
Treat exactly as if you had cast it upon youself.

person in a single action, up to one per dot in Aqua Aspect
Emotion.

at least as many success as your rank in Aqua Aspect: Emotion (or
spend the willpower point to cancel Calm) to engage in aggressive
or passionate activities.
Aqua Aspect: Enhance.
Primary Emotion: command.
Bane: drive:  Any time you leave a meaningfull conversation with
someone without manipulating them in some way, you must roll one
die per level of Aqua Aspect Enhance you posses.  Each success is
one point of temporary willpower that you lose.
* Voice of the Sirens: 1k
     (enchant self)  Sharpens your ability to make others do as
you wish them to.
     System:  You gain a number of manipulations equal to your
highest ranked Aqua power for the duration of the scene.  May not
be used while in effect.
Aqua Aspect: Counter.
Primary Emotion: self-control.
Bane: indifference:  Since any Ignis spell cast against you is
resisted, it makes it harder to benifit from Ignis effects.
* Quench: (1k)
     Any Ignis power which targets you is automaticly resisted by
this power.  You may also take an action and spend a point of
positive karma to attempt such a resistance against any Ignis
spell.  The source of this counter-magic will be obvious.
     System:  Roll a number of dice equal to your rank in Aqua
Aspecct Counter.  Each success reduces the casters success by
one, or stops the power altogether if it required no roll.
Aqua Aspect: Elemental.
Primary Emotion: tranquility.
Bane: tidal influence:  You are extreamly affected by the
changing tides, to the extent that changes manifest in you body.
For each dot you posses in Aqua Aspect Elemental, you must choose
one attribute, or perminent willpower, when you gain the dot, and
designate this trait as influenced.  This attribute will recive a
plus one (which may go above your normal trait max) during 'high
tide', and a minus one (which may go to zero but not below;
chosing one dot attributes for influce is not recommened) during
'low tide.'  A high tide occurs about once every 12 hours, 25
minutes, but during the space of a story or even chronicle , this
can be rouned to 12 hours for simplicity, though it does cause
about one hour deviation per day, which would not be too hard to
handle.  The modifiers are in effect for one hour before, after
and including the hour during which the moment of  high or low
tide occurs.  Modification does not occur instantly, thus,
whenever influlenced character(s) enter a scene, the modifiers
should become set for the remainder of the scene (excluding
exceptionally long scenes.)  Sample 12 hour tides are shown
below.

Time of day (AM and PM)

***** ***** Omnisence: 1k
     By mentally asking a question, you may recieve the answer so
long as any person, or collection of persons, knows the
information you seek.  Omnipresense may only request facts,
things such as intentions, emotions and current train of thought
are too abstract for the power.  You are also limited by your
capacity to comprehend the information recieved.  Asking a
question with an involved answer, ie, 'how do I construct a
nuclear device', will leave you so flooded with information that
you will forget the vast majority of it.  In fact, if you ask
such a question and recieve a volumnous amount of information,
the overload may cause a derangement (probabaly either a fixation
or phobia with the subject of the question.)  Such information
may be recieved by asking a series of more specific questions,
and recording them, ie 'How many parts do I need to build a
nuclear device';'what is one of the parts';'what is another
part';'where can I most easily get the ';'what do I do with
', etc.
     System:  No roll is required to use the power, but if get an
information overload, you must make a willpower roll, diff. 8, or
the storyteller should choose an appropiate derangement.  Even
succeeding in the roll will leave you stunned for short period of
time.
