I have been role playing for a while now, and one of the games that really gets me is vampire the masquerade. in this game, there are heavy social things to how you converse with each other, and society, and these rules may play out into the real world naturally as an unleashed force. with that in mind i am deciding to do this anyways.

~ For this game, we are going to use power centers of the body. this will be like indian chakras, that we have brushed over lightly in the past, but now i want to bring these centers of the body together in a collage, so as to make the body manifest this game's effects. so, once more, the diagram;

The method we will use is activating colors;

shapes of chakras.jpeg

So as to imagine shapes in our mind, or, form shapes with our bodies in a pattern, going from the part of the body to the rest of the power centers. this would be like a circuit board for a computer, where if we want to affect ourselves with something like healing, we would start at the bottom of the spine and work our way up to the head, for example.

This could be made more effective by tensing that body part too, to force a result.
 
When our chakras are full of bad energy, this is merely stress and stored energy. this is because our bodies are getting ready to unload this stress in a physical manner, some way that will help us survive, as the body is tuned to survive. when we shake after getting angry, for example, this is our body shedding the manifested energy that we needed to fight with, of course.

Now, if we are to manifest powers, we need to plot a course and chakras to use - the more we use, the less effective the stress unloading will be. as we prepare to use a discipline, we collect power there, so, refueling needs to be done - like blood points for the vampires, yes?

Let's start with auspex? this vampire power is about heightening our perception of the world. this obviously uses the third eye or blue chakra and purple or crown chakra. this is because our third eye will sense the image, sound or smell of 'the thing,' and our minds are there to process stuff for us, like linked to taste and stimulus like smell and processes the fuels of the body, so, it will l process the stimuli and tell us what is going on.

Then, you need to focus a flow of energy from your third eye going to your scalp, or, in a cycle.

This means, you must picture the right shapes for these two with the right colors and then imagine the place you are focusing on, or person, with these colors and shapes. then, you will get a premonition you must not ignore, and trust your gut.

Maybe we need to mix the colors, into split shapes? this could be, for example, the red rose petal combining with the orange hexagon, creating a new image? i suggest only using two chakras, as the connection between them will form the circuit and neural energy required.

In our example, we would imagine a 'blue upside down pyramid' on a 'purple fractal outside.'
 
We also need to form the two shapes we are mixing with out hands to bring the desired effect, or, we need to draw shapes and colors on our finger nails. this will be where we hold these fingers in, or stick these fingers out to activate the chakras semantically with the universe around us.

Three new colors come to mind, being gray, white and black. these colors will indicate a greatness of density with the black, a moderate or balance with the gray and white would be an absence of color or energy.

So, the black would be there to deliver energy. mixing this color with your other two finger nails painted will result in the effects being full of energy, so as to throw a fire ball or something. black is activity. this is of course for attacking energy.

Then, white is the absence of activity, or default for non materials. haven't you ever seen the white flames at times? these are where the energy is leaving the colors behind to cut through materials like with a blow torch. this still is a lack of activity, and, an indicator of defense, as it will nullify or calm energy.

Now, the gray color is like a utility. it is as if you can see the black in a shadow, of course, so has a fine balance between fullness and emptiness, leading to a safe yet active energy level. this is of course for utility powers, i would fathom?
 
Celerity is like haste in the dungeons and dragons universe, and, it is so cool! you can move faster than normal, but, this might drain you as if you were running or jogging, of course. this would be like taking speed, or, playing old games with low spec requirements that just fly in patches.

So, this would be a combination of your heart or chest chakra - to pump more blood faster, and, deliver a quicker neural chemical signal to your spine or yellow chakra. this means you need to use the fingers with the colors yellow, green and gray, clasping them while extending the others, or clenching the other fingers while you point these.

Then, you must think of a 'star of david inside a 'hexagon,' of course. this would see the shapes in your minds eye moving around in in eight directions of the directions a ma uses, so the third shape should be a like a two crosses placed together, but with one of them at an angle - eight pointy lines.
 
Corrections to auspex would be to cup both hands to your ears as if you are mimicking listening. then, you need to imagine the gray color along with the right other colors and superimposed simple shapes.

For celerity, we need to transfer energy fro our heart to our spine, and, this can be done by imagining the red and green colors and shapes, with the transfer being symbolized by using white, then green, then gray then red, then black, to signify the transfer of energy. using something like this for the auspex would also help.
 
Potence is cool! it is a surge of strength for the person using it. you will notice that all vampire disciplines are centered on themselves, so this is why i suggested chakras, as they are energy centers inside the body. this would be where the 'vampire' uses their own energy, manipulating it to give the desired effects, of course. now, back to potence! this is like a woman lifting a car off her child, you could also say.

If you want to activate nearly anything physical, you need to follow the green to red color pattern i previously mentioned. so, this would be complimented by collecting stress into your arms and legs, and, there fore spine.

Helpful images for the three new colors would be left for black, according to the ying yang of the chinese, gray would be 'two smaller twin circles' and white would be a right handed image of the ying yang.

~ remember, the chinese read from right to left, so, before there was or is energy, there is whiteness, nothing. then there is activity, gray, and then there is energy, black.
 
Then there are communication disciplines like presence, dominate and animalism. these would be manifested by purple crowns and light blue throats, meaning the sounds you make with your voice would be more 'comely' to them.

So, this would be where you mix the shapes, colors and images for the 'spell' to work. this would see the voice you use needing to compliment the energy you wish to give off too, so, half whispers would be good for animalism, as trust is an issue here. then, for presence you would need to speak as if full of wonder and awe for the people, with great manners too. for dominate, you need to be rather firm to 'sarcastic,' 'asinine' and 'majestic' in nature.

[1] This will make the animals trust you more, as you will be making the sounds of an 'older animal.' think, now smaller animals make high pitched sounds that they squeal and they will be excited, so you need to be calm and sure of the relationship, or, at least give this impression 'substance or credibility.'

[2] With presence you need to compliment the others, and then speak highly of yourself. this is what people do to win others over in royalty, as taught to them by their advisors, as this is where you raise the feelings of the people, and then you follow them into the grandeur.

[3] Dominate will be where you make them unsure of themselves, and sure of you as the guide to their circumstances. this would be like a fear thing, where you identify yourself as the anchor in the storm - if there is no storm, talk about one!
 
Chemistry or illusions can be activated by mixing the purple to orange, where you will take your mental images and 'excrete them from your body.' this would see you send an image or sound to the other person, maybe even a smell or taste, yes?

The illusions need to be correctly colored, so you need to go from white to purple to gray to orange to black, of course. this will see the image going from your mind's eye down a long time to the abdomen, so the illusions may take awhile to manifest, of course.

The image must be simple, the simpler it is, the easier it is to do in the beginning. this will leave you with this image being broadcast as a 'lot of smoke' = that is what happened to me a while ago last year with a purple triangle.

Coloring your illusion should be done to avoid them all coming out yellow or red. this can be done with minor 'chemistry of gases,' focusing on one type of gas will get you that color, or, you may eliminate others to get quick 'out of white' coloring.

This also requires you push with your abdomen, like as if you are preparing to be hit there, or, some form of exercise or clenching motion.
 
"The haunting" is about sending a person nightmares during all hours of the day. this is not very useful if you ask me, but it would be nice to have a person you do not like get very scared, and then show yourself to them as a friend, which will be what they are searching for, i suppose.

The nice part about this is it is a vivid dream too. this means you can consult a dream dictionary to find the meanings of all the aspects of the things around you and energies coming into your life soon, or understanding your circumstances, so it is a bit like divination if you ask me?

Anyways, this would be a projection of your purple and turquoise chakras to the other person. this would be the common white purple gray turquoise to black with your finger nails, then the right shapes, remembering that white is a semi circle, gray is two separate circles, and black is a semi circle from ninety degrees to 270 degrees, then you project this onto your target through either your throat or abdomen, as these are the two outlets that affect others.

~ of course, if you were to look at their third eye, or imagine this going into a 'blue square' on their temple, then this should work better.
 
Fortitude is where you resist damage to yourself - this is like toughness too! if you were to practice this every day, you would build up quite a hard outer skin to protect yourself from falling and fighting, or even being bitten by a dog, yes?

To 'manifest levels' in this, you need to focus on your yellow stomach chakra, as this is where harm is processed, as this is where things end up when they come into the body, so - damage would be no different - and then excrete the damage quickly to your nearest projection center, being your abdomen, orange.

I think simply exercising will do the trick at conditioning your body. i know some muay thai fighter condition their shins by kicking bamboo trees, ans that makes them break and reform, like candle wax making the candle thicker, of course. this is of course not required, mere exercise or pushing with your body pats you wish to condition should do the trick, and can be safely added to at home or at the gym.
 
What could help with fortitude is tensing and relaxing your whole body while breathing out, so, maybe yellow to turquoise will be better? this would make the processing of harm be dealt with by releasing the harmful information - as cells merely communicate and overpower each other with the message - could be breathed out?
 
"Mask of a thousand faces" is where you alter your form to be more like something else, genetically. chakras for this would be yellow for processing and green for regulation and dishing out fuels to the cells to allow them to 'grow.' conversely, if you want to get smaller, you need to use green heart and orange abdomen chakras to expel the energy that we have inside of us.

This could manifest by touching your face, and, drawing a picture of what you want to look like, or, even looking at a picture you want to look like. this image will go to your crown chakra and then to your stomach for 'processing.' then, your heart will send the right frequency through your body, and then yellow to gorw and orange to shrink.

You could use your fingers with the colors on them to touch to your face too.
