This Formula allows you to create a thick, hazy fog on demand, obscuring a room or those within it.

Required ingredients: Alchemist’s Blood, Phlegmatic mortal blood.

Suggested ingredients: Dry ice, cigar smoke, bottled engine exhaust

Cost: One Rouse check

System:  Make one Rouse check, and use your standard action to instantly fill an area, up to the size of a large ballroom, with a thick cloud of mist and fog. If used outdoors, your Haze extends 50 steps in every direction, with you at the center.

Individuals in your instantly-created Haze cannot see more than three steps away. Characters outside of the Haze cannot see more than three steps into the Haze. Characters wishing to attack or use a power on characters more than three steps away through a Haze are considered to have the Blinded Condition. Powers that make you immune to the Blinded Condition from mundane or supernatural darkness do not make you immune to the Blinded Condition inflicted by Haze. Haze lasts for 30 minutes, but you can dispel it early by expending a simple action.

You may also choose to activate Haze for free, requiring no action and no Rouse check. If activated in this way, your cloud of mist only surrounds yourself, making you unidentifiable to onlookers. It provides no other bonuses.

Duration: One scene
