==Abilities== Diana practices [[Astrology]], and utilizes installations around Toronto to create constructs, spirits that last a short time but can be made to her liking. She created one that served as an archer during the contest. And can create many other types all seemingly with specific purposes and abilities.<ref>“Fell,” I said. “I need to know about the Astrologer. I know she was an apprentice, her master passed the buck to her. She was apparently sympathetic to us, but Conquest tapped her as his champion. I know she apparently summons things, but I don’t know much else.”<br><br>“She does summon things. Those things are more manufactured than produced. Drawing spirits from the area, then cobbling them together under an impression. If a ghost is a psychic imprint on the fabric of the world, then the Astrologer makes the imprints and then fills them in with the available resources.”<br><br>“Making ghosts?” I asked.<br><br>”The candle that burns twice as hot burns half as long. Her summonings burn bright, and they don’t last for very long.”<br><br>I nodded.<br><br>“Power has a price. She and her predecessors have paid a literal price for their power. To make her impressions, she uses machines at the outer rim of the city. Lights, lasers, and properties she controls throughout Toronto. Not as organized as you might imagine. They’re points of light on a dark canvas, and she uses them to draw pictures.”<br><br>“Constellations?” Rose asked.<br><br>“Essentially. Nobody in Toronto has a firm grounding on what the exact rules are. Those of us who do have books on astrology are working with ideas that are often a hundred years old, if not older. What she’s doing is larger in scale than what the books propose, but it’s also limited to certain things appearing in certain places, after certain preparations are made.”<br><br>I frowned. “I want to say we don’t have to worry about her unless she lures us to a specific location, but that’s no guarantee, is it? We could wander right into an ideal spot for her.”<br><br>“Or she could find our location, use a computer to turn certain lights on and off, and align her metaphorical ‘stars’ to drop something minor in our midst,” Fell said. “As a practitioner, she’s no particular threat to Conquest. Too conditional. As a strategic asset, she’s a problem.” - [https://pactwebserial.wordpress.com/2014/05/17 Excerpt] from [[Subordination 6.9]]</ref> <!--https://pactwebserial.wordpress.com/2014/05/15/subordination-6-8/ --> She can also seemingly teleport. Outside of Toronto and her setup she doesn't have many assets to use.<ref>“Diana. Astrologer. I don’t have a lot to bring to the table, but more because it’s fixated in Toronto. I brought three arrangements, and a fourth to recharge another. I’ve already used two.” - [https://pactwebserial.wordpress.com/2015/01/31 Excerpt] from [[Judgment 16.3]]</ref> She may have a spindle implement.
