Reaping (CTD)

Reaping is a form of Epiphany used among some Denizens and the Fomorians.

Overview

Some Denizens draw Glamour from the dying. An extreme form of Ravaging, simple murder isn't enough to release these energies. Reaping requires the Denizen to literally frighten their victim to death (sometimes though repeated Ravagings). Reputedly used by the fomorians themselves, the Reaping of Dreams reduces a lifetime of memories into a powerful surge of Dark Glamour. As the Dreamer dies, the player rolls a number of dice equal to their character's permanent Glamour (difficulty 5). The number of successes equals the amount of Glamour generated. A botch causes a psychic backlash in which the character gains a point of Banality and is haunted by troublesome memories, visions, and emotions. The murder of Dreamers is an abomination to most changelings (and even many Denizens) and punishable by death in many territories.
