Concealing Your Glory

Elohim can Conceal their Glory. While their Concealing their Glory, the weight of their spiritual presence is no longer emanating from them. As part of Concealing their Glory, they will appear to other spirits as a human or an animal, generally no smaller than a large rat or average bird. An elohim Concealing their Glory may choose to also manifest in the material realm, but manifesting materially and Concealing their Glory are independent actions, despite their frequent overlap.

Concealed Glory

  • will appear as a human or animal (not a mimic of a known exact person)

  • cannot be sensed in Melee Range

  • Detection is reduced to half

    • Righteous/Corrupt Detection sense Tier:4 as 28", but not beyond

  • -12 Adjustments to being Perceived as an elohim

  • do not contribute Magnitude to Area Influence

  • upon revealing glory, can use up to 4 Action Points in non-offensive preparation

The intent of Concealing your Glory is to disguise your identity as a glorious spiritual being. In the spiritual realm, glory, or Magnitude, commands attention similar to how humans and animals perceive size, color, and light. A connection to size and light for elohim, but Magnitude is also felt in more profound ways.

While an elohim Conceals their Glory, their Magnitude is reduced to 0. They are also not able to be sensed by other spirits. Versions of the Spiritual Effect Detection have their effectiveness reduced in sensing elohim whose are Concealing their Glory to half the normal range. Righteous and Corrupt Detection sense Concealed Tier:4 at 28", but not in the general region as usual. Using the Spiritual Effect Discernment on an elohim whose glory is concealed will reveal the elohim’s true nature to the Ministering Spirit along with all other information the Effect normally reveals. 

When an elohim chooses to cease Concealing their Glory, they may immediately use up to 4 Action Points preparing themselves for War by manifesting Weapon Effects, adopting Defensive Stance, using Spiritual Effects, singing, etc. They may not, however, do anything during these Action Points that will directly affect any opponents such as Striking or using Resistible or Damaging Effects or Songs. Once revealed, they will resume normal action at their next Turn.
