Description: While it is considered a sister to the Rite of Contrition spell, the two matrices are at their hearts very different. Where Rite of Contrition weaves sublime corruption to fool supernatural senses, the Rite of Grace bombards the physical senses. The Rite of Grace captures the magician's self-image and uses that as the centerpiece of a psychic miasma that attacks everyone's senses and clear thinking in the area. Transcendental mutations can thus be hidden and what is not hidden is rendered unspeakable. The spell is not flawless and can only hide a certain number of mutations.
Effect: Hides 1-7 Transcendental Necromancy buffs.
Example Messaging: Without a Transcendental Necromancy spell up: You project your self-image outward on a gust of psychic miasma, to little effect.
