Description

Makes magically invisible things visible by blowing the powder against or over the invisible thing. The powder must be compounded carefully, according to exacting instructions, and involves three special ingredients and the sacrifice of 1 magic point per dose. A dose is one application of the powder. The Keeper determines the special ingredients required.

The powder is either blown from a tube or thrown over the target. The thing that is dusted stays visible for no more than ten heartbeats. That which could be made visible includes the magical lines extending from a place enchanted for the calling of a Mythos deity, the aura around a Gate, and a creature that is normally invisible (such as a star vampire). Using the powder costs no Sanity points, but seeing what it exposes may provoke such a roll.

Alternative names: Dust of Seeing, Witness of the Unseen, Compound of Perception
