The Power of the Pentagonian is the Mix of the strongest Elements of Time and Creation. Stronger than Celestia or Teldicia's
art, This is perhaps the most ancient of powers, since Caine's time. The use of it can be very draining, so very few have the power to wield it correctly.
Time Sight
This is the ability to see any distance in time, though it is general (period based) and cannot see specific events. This is useful for general information, and can be used current, past, or future. It was this art that gave Brujah the idea for His discipline of Temporis, though many True Brujah deny this and say that Temporis came as the first art of time.
Minor Creation
This is the Creations aspect. This ability allows the creation of small nonliving things, such as daggers,
rope, small mechanical parts, etc. The limitation is that the creator must have *knowledge* of how the device is made, or at least know enough of it to get a general idea of such. Gems and precious metals can also be created by this discipline art, but it is a bit more draining. Size limitation is up to man sized, and weight, no more than 500 lbs.
Time Gaze
An upper level of Time Sight, this can see any distance in time, and also specific events, either in time, or in the life of an individual. This also allows (for extra energy expended) for the user to see through the eyes of said individual, allowing them to know exactly what happened for a certain event. (wonderful for figuring out who murdered someone, etc). This is effective even on dead beings or those not even born yet, as the temporal distortions allow for a mixed weave of reality, though no direct alteration of the timeline(s) itself.
Greater Creation
This is the stronger power of Creation. This can create anything non sentient, (pretty much anything non human) in nature. Living things can be made, animals, usually, but no magickal creatures (dragons, unicorns and the like) and plants as well can be made. Swords, vehicles, all manner of finished works and intricate machinery..the limitations are the same as for Minor Creation, and this power is a bit more draining than the first, as the creation of life is not a small prospect.
Time Distortion
This is the ability to distort time in an area, so that while the user moves at normal speed, all those in that area move at 1/10th of their normal speed. A bullet would move at a snail pace if fired into this area, but the user of the discipline would be unaffected. The ratio is 1 turn distorted time=10 turns real time. So the user could take ten turns (which means 10 or more attacks.. for those with Celerity this is a wonderful technique) and the opponents would only be able to react on the tenth turn, and by then it's usually too late. This lasts for ten minutes of normal time. The radius is 100' circle.
Rewind
This is the ability to wind back any event that has happened in recent time. (within a week) thus, a death could be made to never happen, an event could be changed by turning back time, etc. This is a stressful ability and usually weakens the vampire using it, but the results are usually worth the trouble. For the most part, any who have tried to rewind events that span more than a week and half at best, fail miserably and still feel the strain.
Life Creation
This is the ability to create living sentient beings. Most often, this is used to make guardians, that though have a mind, are soulless. The implications of this is morally unsound and is generally used only by evil vampires. The statistics for such guardians are as follows.. Str: 3 Dex: 3 Stam: 3 Char: 2 Manip: 1 Appr:1-4 Percep: 3 Int: 2 Wits: 2. All of them have the Disciplines of Fortitude, Celerity, and Potence at first level of ability, and are truly loyal to the creator. Note that as an alternative, a human body can be fashioned without a mind at all, to wait for occupation by a soul. This is referred to as 'Clone' and is often used by paranoid vampires whose body may be destroyed one day.
Compression of Time
This is the ability to compress time. It is different from stopping time, as that stops the flow around one. This makes the flow of time thinner, and thus, events that move through the timestream are nullified. The main use of
compression of time is to stop all other uses of Time based power in the area. Note that it does not affect the time powers of the original user, just all others entering the area. Pentag made this with the intention of making sure that none of the True Brujah would try to 'out time' Him on His own art.
Soul Creation
This is the ability to create a soul, or pull a soul back from the netherworld, though truly it is more recreating than pulling back, weaving the essence back into the living circle. This cannot be used more than once in a week's period for it is very strenuous. Note that if Life Creation makes a body, then Soul Creation is used on this body, it makes a perfect being, in every way (though mortal, mind you) they will be the pinnacle of Mortality..however, only one such being per vampire can exist at one time..Pentag put this limitation on His power so that when He chose His successor they would not be tempted to make an army of 'perfect' vampires.
Uncreation
The 10th level discipline, Uncreation is similar to any killing attack against a dangerous enemy. The main difference is that instead of undoing their life in general, Uncreation simply ends life on a grand scale. It not only atomizes their body to base components, but unravels their soul and essence and strips the mind, sending the energy into the world, and the sky and heavens and all things, in the cycle of creation/destruction. This is incredibly straining for most vampires, and is generally used only to nullify dangerous foes.
Temporal Lash
The most powerful of the Time arts, this literally rips someone's existance out of the time/space continuum, and any major events that they were a part of, are imposed upon another figure to compensate for the distortion. However, this does not work on High powers (those of greater than demi-god status, though it will work on vampires of third generation and above, demigods, angels of all rank, demons of all rank, save the Greatest *such as Lucifer/Satan* and mortals cannot resist) However, higher level beings, such as archangels and Antediluvians are allowed to resist this power, as their influence on many things is great, and the time/space continuum would be under great stress to reverse so many events.
