Flaring the Immediate Nimbus requires a roll of Gnosis + a Resistance Attribute, chosen when designing the Nimbus Tilt. It affects Sleepers without resistance, but Sleepwalkers may contest with Resolve + Composure. Mages and other supernaturals who counter with their own auras enter a Clash of Wills, rolling their own dice pools. The Tilt always bestows one positive effect and one negative effect. The positive effect gives a bonus of Gnosis/2 to an Attribute or a Skill, and the negative effect gives the same amount of penalty to another Attribute or Skill.

Do not spend Arcane Experiences to increase Gnosis. Instead, you gain 1 dot of Gnosis for every 10 Arcane Experiences you accumulate.

If you have two traits that would give you 9 Again on the same roll, they stack to become 8 Again. Should you have two instances of 8 Again, you receive 7 Again, and so on.

The fourth dot of Professional Training, instead of giving you a Beat when purchasing dots in Asset Skills, allows you to achieve Exceptional Successes with 4 Successes on Asset Skills.

Each Awakened starts the game with one free soulstone. Additionally, using Soulstone always considers you to be "a Mage of equal Gnosis".

Ephemeral beings have their traits more balanced out:

Willpower: Resistance + Rank (maximum is 10)

Initiative: Finesse + Resistance/2 round up

Defense: Finesse + Rank/2 round up. (maximum is 10)

Speed: highest between Power and Finesse + Rank.

Spending Essence to boost Attributes does not increase derived traits

When a roll would call for Attribute + Attribute, an ephemeral instead rolls the highest between the relevant Attributes (e.g. highest between Finesse and Resistance for Perception).

Subtract Rank from rolls unrelated to the ephemeral’s purview.

Instead of always rolling Power + Finesse for powers, roll a thematically fitting Attribute + Rank.
