Lost Arts of the Dead (2e)
The ancient dead keep their own counsel¸ and they have learned from bitter experience to hold onto any advantage to avoid Oblivion. The Charms within represent such advantage in the Underworld¸ a means of bringing powers unknown to most of its denizens to bear when necessary. Once practiced only by the dark realm's elite¸ these arts have begun to filter out to the masses in this Time of Tumult. And if these powers are rare in the Underworld¸ they are uniquely terrifying to the inhabitants of Creation who face them.
