Sleepwalkers are, to many willworkers, one of the most prized of resources: un-Awakened individuals nevertheless partially outside of the Exarchs’ Lie, capable of beholding feats of Supernal magic without invoking the deleterious consequences of a Sleeper’s presence. To the [[Seers of the Throne]], however, the Lie must stand flawless and inviolate, especially when its power can hinder the Seers’ enemies. This spell temporarily suppresses a Sleepwalker’s resistance to the Lie, making her the equivalent of any other Sleeper when beholding vulgar magic.

* Practice: [[Spell Practice::Unraveling]]
* [[Action]]: [[Action::Instant]] and contested; target rolls [[Pool::Resolve]] + Gnosis
* [[Duration]]: [[Duration::Prolonged]] (one scene)
* '''Aspect:''' [[Spell Aspect::Covert]]
* Cost:  [[Cost::None]]

If this spell’s Potency successfully overcomes the Sleepwalker’s resistance, she counts as an ordinary Sleeper with respect to magic of vulgar Aspect for the spell’s [[Duration]].


[[Seers of the Throne]] Rote: Silence the Dream of Waking
* Dice Pool: Manipulate + [[Pool::Persuasion Skill|Persuasion]] + [[Pool::Mind]]
Long a favored weapon in the Seer’s arsenal, this rote neutralizes much of a Sleepwalker’s usefulness to another willworker, rendering her more a hindrance as a help when her Awakened keeper is forced to resort to vulgar spells.
