If contact is broken or the oneiropomp's body disturbed, roll res + comp + wyrd at the beginning of each turn to maintain the dream Exceptional success = dream maintained for full scene Failure = she awakens and is at -2 for all actions for the remainder of the scene due to disorientation Dream Invading - The old fashioned way. 1 Glamour (with an active dreamwork pledge) Extended res + comp roll (16 succs needed) Res + Comp again to awaken (for oneiropomp) Lucid Dreamers can try to awaken (their Res + Comp VS my Wits + Emp + Wyrd) Non-lucud dreamers are stuck for it. Dream Intensity Dreamer's wits + resolve 9/again on Recurring & Memory dreams 8/again Recurring Memory dreams Wits + Occult + Wyrd + Intensity to determine if prophetic (only an exceptional grants knowledge of how likely it is to happened and how to avoid it. Changes to a prophetic dream end it immediately; considered unlucky by dreamworkers). Scouring intensity is wits + emp + wyrd - intensity. Dropping below 1 ends the dream (oneiropomp can spend a WP to maintain) Nightmares If the Intensity is higher than the dreamer's WP, no WP regain upon awakening/wake screaming. The # of Derangements subtract from WP requirement (2 derangements = 5WP dreamer needing only a 3 Intensity dream) and nightmares generally focus on aspects of their derangements. Dream Analysis Wits + emp - intensity Implant Subliminals Wits + emp + intensity 1 succ = 1 trigger. 1 week effect For that week, oneiropomp has total succs as bonus dice to all manip rolls against dreamer. Learn the Dreamer Wits + Emp + Wyrd Extended, 1 roll per night. Each five succs = learning 1 detail about the dreamer (virtue, vice, derangement, WP, mental/social merit, mental/social flaw) Dream Therapy Wits + emp + wyrd Each night of dream work = 1 week of psychotherapy Dreamshaping 1 Glamour, Wits + Emp + Wyrd VS dreamer's Wits + Resolve Intensity of resulting dream is net succs of contested roll Or lazy way is scour to 0, pay 2 Glamour.
