| - Veiling effects conceal the phe-nomena encompassed by a given Arcanum, or use such phenomena to grant camoufl age or concealment. At this level, the mage’s scope of effect is small and/or otherwise limited (for instance, a willworker using Forces 2 can render an inanimate object invisible, but needs Forces 3 to cast the same effect on herself, and Forces 4 to bestow it upon another). In general, the larger or more complex the creature, place or thing to be affected, the more dots the mage needs in the appropriate Arcanum. In other words, it’s usually harder to cast Veiling spells on a moving car than on a stationary chair, and easier to cast them on a houseplant than on a human being.Some magics from the Practice of Veiling are vulgar in Aspect, but this is uncommon, as the very purpose of Veiling is secrecy. Only the more blatant effects (such as vanishing from sight) are vulgar, while the majority of the rest are covert. This twofold subtlety serves to make Veiling effects especially popular among spies, thieves and even assassins. Such subtlety also makes the Practice of Veiling a fantastic toolkit for performing otherwise dangerously blatant magic in the vicinity of Sleepers without (as much) fear of Paradoxes or Disbelief. A cunning willworker with time to prepare can, in theory, disguise even the most obvious acts of mystic prowess from Sleeping eyes by using Veiling spells. Important to note for the purposes of spell design is the fact that any magical effect intended primarily for concealment of any sort properly belongs to the Practice of Veiling. While a number of spells stray out of the second dot of their respective Arcana, the fundamental nature of the Practice does not change. So long as a clouding of perception or manifestation of some falsehood doesn’t directly fall under the purview of another Practice (such as the Mind Arcanum’s ability to alter memories, or certain advanced forms of Prime Arcanum phantasms, for example), then the spell is a Veiling spell.
