Levels of Quiet
Chart
| Level | Paradox Discharged | Delusions or Disassociation |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | 1-3 | Minor quirks or occasional delusions; mage begins to manifest odd behavior and minor disassociation from his baseline reality. |
| 2 | 4-6 | Delusions and disconnection become more severe; mage perceives things that no one else can see, starts denying the experiences of other people, and begins to behave irrationally even by Awakened standards. |
| 3 | 7-10 | Mage’s senses backfire, creating blindness (real or conceptual), vivid hallucinations, and erratic – perhaps dangerous – behavior. Hobgoblins might appear, manifesting the mage’s delusions in ways that other people can perceive. |
| 4 | 11-15 | Mage either gets trapped in a mindscape of his own design, or else behaves so irrationally that he becomes a danger to himself and everyone nearby. |
| 5 | 16-20 | Mage either drops into total catatonia or takes on many of the characteristics of a Marauder but without immunity to Paradox. |
| 6 | 21+ | Mage goes Marauder and becomes a Storyteller character. |
