-  * Can create something at will, thing is 100% real until it isn't. Default sorcery lasts for 1 round, can only create things your own size or smaller, cannot create animate creatures, costs 1 supplies and maybe chance for paradox/disaster
+Manifestors rewrite reality at will, making this archetype both incredibly versatile and very powerful in the hands of a creative player. A Manifestor's power, however, draws not only on their resources but upon their very sanity in the form of accumulating Stress. You might consider also taking levels as a [[Steadfast]] or [[Doper]] in order to better manage your mental condition (although the latter archetype carries its own risks as well), or just lean into the fact you're going to have high Stress levels and become a [[Lunatic]].
-    * Rub out- temporarily remove things from reality
-    * Can affect/create animate beings ?of up to your level?
-    * alter things- change size, appearance, motive, other adjectives as desired
-    * effect can last until end of exploration turn

 ====== Manifestor ======

-^{{ra>gear-hammer?48|Utility}} ||{{fa>plus-circle?24&align=left}}**Breathtaking Speed:** You can compress a few minutes of effort into a few seconds, allowing you to perform anything that would normally require an entire procedure to accomplish as a single action instead. \\ \\ {{fa>minus-circle?24&align=left}}**Mojo:** Using Compression to perform a long task quickly requires you to spend one Mojo. |
+^{{ra>gear-hammer?48|Utility}} ||{{fa>plus-circle?24&align=left}}**Make Manifest:** The world reshapes itself to match your desires. As an action, you can create nearly any object at any location within 10 meters. Objects created in this way are 100% real and act exactly like normal objects of their type would. \\ \\ {{fa>plus-circle?24&align=left}}**Nearly Anything:** Your creations can be as specific or as opulent as you like, such as "a diamond the size of a fist" or "a masterpiece painting of Lord Toastwanker getting spanked by gimp-suited crocodiles in a gilded frame". You can even create things that are extremely rare or borderline nonexistant such as "powdered snake fingernails" or "liquid shadows." \\ \\ {{fa>minus-circle?24&align=left}}**Limits:** Any object you create cannot be larger than you are. You cannot create animate creatures, only objects. You cannot create artifacts (as from the [[Artificer]] archetype) from nothing, but you can create fully-functional duplicates of other artifacts you've seen during the current session. You cannot effectively create keystones. \\ \\ {{fa>minus-circle?24&align=left}}**Short Term:** Reality has a way of snapping back into place after you've bent it. Anything created by a Manifestor disappears at the end of the exploration turn. \\ \\ {{fa>minus-circle?24&align=left}}**Stress:** Altering what exists is rough on your sanity. Using Manifestor to change reality causes you to immediately gain 1 point of Stress. \\ \\ {{fa>minus-circle?24&align=left}}**Mojo:** Changing reality with Manifestor costs 1 Mojo. |
+|{{fa>caret-right?24}} ^{{fa>star?24|Alternative}} |{{fa>plus-circle?24&align=left}}**Alchemanifest:** You can make your created objects permanent. They won't disappear at the end of the exploration turn, but can still be destroyed by anything that would normally be capable of destroying them. \\ \\ {{fa>minus-circle?24&align=left}}**Equivalent Exchange:** Making a creation permanent requires you to spend an amount of Dosh equal to the created item's value. The referee might have to arbitrate the value of particularly weird or unusual items. |
 ^ ^^^
-====== Enterprises ======
+====== Alteration ======
+^ ^^^
+^{{ra>gear-hammer?48|Utility}} ||{{fa>plus-circle?24&align=left}}**Change:** You may change the properties or appearance of any object or creature within 10 meters as an action. This effectively allows you to add or replace one adjective applying to that object/creature of your choice- for example, you can change its color, shape, material, buoyancy, ugliness, hunger level, sleepiness, etc as you please. \\ \\ {{fa>plus-circle?24&align=left}}**Alter Size:** You can change a subject's size with this ability, but no more than one size category larger or smaller than its true size. \\ \\ {{fa>minus-circle?24&align=left}}**Manifestor Limits:** Alterations made with this ability revert back to normal at the end of the current exploration turn as usual. You cannot alter any object/creature that is bigger than you are. \\ \\ {{fa>minus-circle?24&align=left}}**Manifestor Costs:** Changing reality with this ability costs 1 Mojo and causes you to accumulate 1 Stress. |
+^ ^^^
+====== Cornucopia ======
+^ ^^^
+^{{ra>gear-hammer?48|Utility}} ||{{fa>plus-circle?24&align=left}}**Sanity Engine:** You create whatever you need as you go, and can sustain yourself with will alone. Whenever you would spend a point of any resource (Provisions, Supplies, Mojo) you can choose to spend nothing and accumulate 1 Stress instead. This ability allows you to use resource-consuming abilities even when you don't have any appropriate resources available at all. |
+^ ^^^
+====== Genesis ======
+^ ^^^
+^{{ra>gear-hammer?48|Utility}} ||{{fa>plus-circle?24&align=left}}**Create Life:** You can manifest living creatures as well as inanimate objects. Manifested creatures can have any species and/or appearance that you desire. \\ \\ {{fa>plus-circle?24&align=left}}**Amiable:** Created creatures act as normal for their kind. They will assist you with almost anything you want if they're capable of understanding language. \\ \\ {{fa>plus-circle?24&align=left}}**Skilled:** If it matters, a manifested creature's level is at most half of your own (round down) and they can have any archetype/ability that makes sense for them to have. For example, a manifested dog will probably have the Scent ability from the [[Ranger]] archetype. Your referee might require you to limit yourself to manifesting only creatures that already exist in the campaign world and have available statistic blocks to refer to. \\ \\ {{fa>minus-circle?24&align=left}}**Pacifistic:** Manifested creatures will avoid danger and fighting if at all possible. Telling them that they will stop existing soon might cause them to have a breakdown if they're self-aware enough to understand death, so it's generally better not to mention such things. \\ \\ {{fa>minus-circle?24&align=left}}**Manifestor Limits:** Creatures created with this ability stop existing at the end of the current exploration turn as usual. You cannot create any creatures that are bigger than you are. \\ \\ {{fa>minus-circle?24&align=left}}**Manifestor Costs:** Changing reality with this ability costs 1 Mojo and causes you to accumulate 1 Stress. |
+^ ^^^
+====== Preserver ======
+^ ^^^
+^{{ra>eye-shield?48|Protection}} ||{{fa>plus-circle?24&align=left}}**Stasis:** You can suspend unwanted change on a subject of your choice of your own size or smaller within 10 meters as an action. That subject becomes completely immune to any and all damage, conditions, or other negative effects. \\ \\ {{fa>plus-circle?24&align=left}}**Hubris:** If the subject of this ability is yourself, then using it is a free action during your regular turn. \\ \\ {{fa>minus-circle?24&align=left}}**All Too Brief:** Unlike other manifestations, Preserver's effects last only until the beginning of your next turn. \\ \\ {{fa>minus-circle?24&align=left}}**Manifestor Costs:** Changing reality with this ability costs 1 Mojo and causes you to accumulate 1 Stress. |
+^ ^^^
+====== Rub Out ======
+^ ^^^
+^{{ra>gear-hammer?48|Utility}} ||{{fa>plus-circle?24&align=left}}**Begone:** You can remove something from reality that you don't care for. Any object within 10 meters simply ceases to exist until the end of the current exploration turn, whereupon it reappears again where it used to be. \\ \\ {{fa>minus-circle?24&align=left}}**Carry Nothing:** If you rub out an object that's being carried or worn by a creature, it reappears at the end of the exploration turn wherever that creature was at the time. If the creature has moved to a different location in the interim, it doesn't reappear in their inventory. \\ \\ {{fa>minus-circle?24&align=left}}**Limits:** You cannot rub out creatures, only objects. Objects that are an integral part of a creature's archetypes or abilities (such as a [[Gunslinger]]'s gun) are likewise immune to removal. You cannot rub out objects that are larger than you are, but you can rub out you-sized chunks of larger objects with repeated applications of the ability. \\ \\ {{fa>minus-circle?24&align=left}}**Manifestor Costs:** Changing reality with this ability costs 1 Mojo and causes you to accumulate 1 Stress. |
+|{{fa>caret-right?24}} ^{{fa>star?24|Alternative}} |{{fa>plus-circle?24&align=left}}**Embrace the Void:** You can temporarily remove creatures (including everything they are holding or carrying) from reality, even yourself. Removed creatures reappear as normal at the end of the exploration turn and remember nothing from the brief time in which they didn't exist. \\ \\ {{fa>minus-circle?24&align=left}}**Wills Aligned:** You can only use your power on creatures in this way if they are willing. |
