The Craftsman enters a state of focus, showing no emotion as sweat beads down their body. The Craftsman holographically creates an anvil or forge (depending on the size of the object) and starts tinkering with metal. Only the craftsman can hear the sounds of clashing and clanging.
The Craftsman's arms move with uncanny speed, as if robotic limbs scripted to perform.

You are obscured in one of the following manners. Lasts 30 minutes.
While this Effect is active, any Effect that would obscure you from other, additional senses fails automatically. If someone discovers you, this Effect will not help you hide from them for the next minute. Activating a targeted or obvious Effect, attacking, or being Injured ends the Effect. When the Effect ends, it is disabled for one minute.

You automatically detect all Vampires within 50 feet of you for the next minute. This includes any who come within range during the duration.

This information is accurate enough to use for aiming at them, at +1 Difficulty.
Even while this Effect is not active, if any Vampires come within 50 feet of you, you may roll Perception + Alertness, Difficulty 7 to detect them.
Colvin grimaces, and disappears from sight. To most people, it looks like he has simply disappeared, like he never was. To a highly accurate observer, however, they realize that the change was not with their surroundings…it was with their own vision. It is like someone has placed a picture of the scene without Colvin in it in their visual organ (for most people, their eyes). Blinking heavily, focusing their mind on dispelling the fog someone can get the glamour to dissipate from their sight for a moment, seeing the scene as normal…potentially making out Colvin if he is within their sight.
This is one of the most common magics of the Fae—glamour…the ability to confuse and muddle mortal vision. It was granted to Colvin by the Spear of the Wild Hunt, upon completion of a ‘hunt’. Though the Wild Hunt was led by ghostly leaders of legends, and Norse Gods, its ranks were oft made up of Fae…those cruel, capricious torturers. Though he despises Fae, the spear is beginning to turn Colvin into something beyond human. Not fully Fae, but not fully mortal either. It is beginning to make him a Member of the Wild Hunt.

Rocky gives a sharp call, "We got work to do." As his words hang in the air, the rumble of an approaching garbage truck grows louder. It screeches to a halt in the background, its engines growling. The door swings open, and one by one, his crew steps out—tough, loyal, and ready for whatever dirty work lies ahead. Each of them wears the marks of their loyalty, and with Rocky leading the charge, they’re ready to handle the mess, no questions asked.
