This list should make it easier to keep track of cyphers.
FORCE ARMOR PROJECTOR
Level: 5
Appearance: Necklace with Dragon Scale
Effect: Creates a shimmering energy field around the user for one hour, during which time he gains
+3 to Armor (+4 to Armor if the cypher is level 5 or higher).
MONOBLADE
Level: 8
Appearence: Intricately-designed sacrificial dagger
Effect: Produces a 6-inch (15 cm) blade that’s the same level as the cypher. The blade cuts through
any material of a level lower than its own. If used as a weapon, it is a light weapon that ignores
Armor of a level lower than its own. The blade lasts for ten minutes.
[ +- ] Gabrien cyphers
Hand mirror: INSIGHT
Level: 5
Effect: The user can ask the GM one question and get a general answer (from an appropriate
entity, institution, or object in the particular recursion or area of the Chaosphere in which the
cypher is used). The GM assigns a level to the question, so the more obscure the answer, the
more difficult the task. Generally, knowledge that a PC could find by looking somewhere other than
his current location is level 1, and obscure knowledge of the past is level 7. Gaining knowledge of
the future is level 10, and such knowledge is always open to interpretation.
The pole: PHASE WALL
Level: 8
Effect: When the cypher is activated, a wall within long range up to 20 feet by 20 feet (6 m by 6 m)
that is 5 feet (2 m) or less thick looks the same, but for one hour, solid creatures and objects can
phase through it as if the wall wasn’t there.

[ +- ] Ash cyphers
Crystal orb: SHELTERING RECURSION
Level: 6
Effect: A pocket-dimension-sized recursion is created that operates under the same law as the
recursion in which the cypher is used. A single inapposite gate is also created. Once used, the
device becomes inactive, but the recursion is permanent.
The dagger: RAY EMITTER (COMMAND)
Level: 7
Effect: Allows the user to project a ray up to 200 feet (61 m) that forces a target to obey the next
verbal command given (if it is understood).
The ring: PHASE CHANGER
Level: 2
Effect: Puts the user out of phase for one minute. During this time, she can pass through solid
objects as though she were entirely insubstantial, like a ghost. She cannot make physical attacks
or be physically attacked.

[ +- ] Reeve Cypher
FORCE ARMOR PROJECTOR
Level: 5
Appearance: Necklace with Dragon Scale
Effect: Creates a shimmering energy field around the user for one hour, during which time he gains
+3 to Armor (+4 to Armor if the cypher is level 5 or higher).

any material of a level lower than its own. If used as a weapon, it is a light weapon that ignores
Armor of a level lower than its own. The blade lasts for ten minutes.
[ +- ] Dropped Cyphers
Dragon statue: LIFT (Left behind in the Leudon ruins)
Level: 4
Effect: For up to one hour after activation, the cypher user can float up into
the air or back down again at a rate of 20 feet (6 m) per round. Winds or
other effects can move the user laterally.
In the chest sold by raider-merchants: A metal ankle Bangle with mysterious runes, and a wooden wand.
Level: 4
Effect: For up to one hour after activation, the cypher user can float up into
the air or back down again at a rate of 20 feet (6 m) per round. Winds or
other effects can move the user laterally.

[ +- ] Used Cyphers
Potion Bottle: Curative (used by reeve after shadow fight.)
Effect: Substance restores a number of points equal to the cypher’s level to the user’s Might Pool.
Level 8
Effect: Substance restores a number of points equal to the cypher’s level to the user’s Might Pool.
Level 8
