Mana drainer? Is it in an AB somewhere, cause in all my (OCD-like) researching of the AB skills, it's only been mentioned in like, Stolensight and I've heard bits and pieces of it here. :/


Redmask just drains some ego and mana.

Stolensight is more complex:

QUOTE
PHANTASMS - STOLENSIGHT

Syntax: WEAVE STOLENSIGHT (to initiate)
Power: 1 (any)

Infusing a thread of your soul into a phantom sighstealer will enable
you to send it to your target and see what he or she sees, as long as
the target is in your demesne when the illusion is cast.

Syntax: STOLENSIGHT (to see)

An additional ability, granted by your connection with the sightstealer,
is that once you have stolen someone's sight, you are able to use that
link to cast Stars, Claws, RedMask/EvenBlade and Whisper on them (once
again provided that they are in your demesne). There is no additional
syntax required, the target must be in your demesne and haunted by a
phantom sightstealer.

By "see what they see", does it mean see whenever they move a room/use look, or does it send you all the affliction/attack messages and everything?

I think it just lets them QL.

My uses for dreamweaving are as follows:

Spying
Screwing with people's heads
Exploring new planes of existance for new power sources
Enveloping bodies when they fall
Finding bugs in dreamweaving

My only combat use is actually corpse retrival. Spying in a combat situation roughly means for me to follow them around and then bodysnap so I can get back while information is still relevant, then wait for the recovery then find them again.

Stay away from the Fae, you horribly adorable Jigan.

Alianna communicated with Xiran while dreamweaving, when she came across a Magnagoran on Ethereal. I thought she was one of the Divine. It was neat.

Yeah, the stolensight command just does quicklook on the enemy's room.

what if Dreamweaving had a version of supersling, or would that be broken because of memory loss?

Dreamweaving just had a special envoy report which is when these types of ideas should be implemented. In any event, I think some of these ideas are OP but others may make some sense. These types of ideas should go through regular envoy process at this point.
