hey this if my first time on here, but I really have a question. for those o fyou who read the books, especially the later ones, any one have any idea of how you'd work a genus loki?
it's what harry does on that island demon reach during either turn coat or small favor (i think its small favor).
Im kind of at a loss because I havnt actually run the game yet, it starts sunday. help a brother out?

Places of power sponsored magic. Check YS292.

They'll probably have actual rules for it when the Paranet Files supplement comes out, but till then you could probably get by with it either being a form of Sponsored Magic that among other things lets you use Divination at evocation speeds, but only of the area the Genus Loci encompasses. or a Supernatural Sense that gives one information on everthing in the Loci.
Of course, it's been a few months since I read Turncoat so there might be some abilities granted by being attuned to a Genus Loci that I had forgotten.

I think that's genus loci with intellectus(and very rare) going by how it was conversed about when they realized it.

A connection to a genius loci is easily represented as Sponsored Magic.
But actually statting out a genius loci would require a lot of work. It'd be a rule-hacking project in itself.
You can probably fake it pretty easily though.

OT: recently i did a story with a hotel possessed by a mafia don who made a pact with the genius loci of the place, because he did not want to die (in a fire consuming the hotel). problem was, after years using the building as a place for torturing, killing and getting rid of killed people as well as illegal brothel the spirit was a horribly twisted thing...
the hotel was later rebuilt, and recently opened. the player characters got invitations from a mysterious source. at midnight of the opening event all hell broke lose as echoes of the past began to bleed into the present and the spirit-thing struggled to regain control.
think of a bit of "ghost ship" mixed with "the shining".

thank you everyone
