Lucia's Grimoire and Items (cont'd)
only that they talked. He does not recall that she entered the off-limits room.
(Base 4, +1 Eye)
The Subtle Burn of Desire
CrMe 20
R: Eye, D: Moon, T: Ind
This spell instills in the target a simmering physical desire for one person, most often Lucia herself. This gives the target a temporary Personality Trait "Desire for Lucia" at +2, which influences the target's behavior throughout the spell's duration.
(Base 4, +1 Eye, +3 Moon)
A Night's Passion
CrMe 25
R: Touch, D: Moon, T: Ind
Usually cast upon a sleeping target, often slumbering due to Lucia's Call to Slumber spell, this spell creates the lasting memory of a nightlong sexual encounter with Lucia, the content of which is decided by Lucia at the time of casting, though her target is free to embellish or exaggerate upon the memory in due course. Targets who make an Intelligence roll against an Ease Factor of 9 realize the memory is false, but those already under another of Lucia's lasting enchantments have a –3 penalty to this roll. Once cast, the memory remains for Moon duration, long enough for the memory to settle and fade, making the loss of it less jarring. She has used this spell on Federico many times, and if the player characters detect, and understand, it they may come to wonder whether she has ever actually slept with him.
One drawback to this spell is that it is an active magical effect, detectable to those using Intellego Vim spells.
(Base 5, +1 Touch, +3 Moon)
Lucia's Talisman: An Emerald Earring
Lucia wears a tiny gold and emerald earring in her left ear. It has been opened with 10 pawns of vis and has been attuned to provide a +4 bonus to spells that incite love or passion (factored into casting totals above). Using either instilled effect in the presence of magi could be construed as a breach of the Code.

From Across the Room

seems to appear at the heart of some trouble or other and then disappear to nobody knows where, like a scorpion sinking back into the sand. If the magi
recognize this, his scorpion-like nature could be exploited to weaken his covenant.
