Name: (Name)
Aspect: (Infernal, Malfean, Ebon Dragon, Vitrol, etc.)
Rating: (●-●●●●●)
Description: (The hearthstone's physical description goes here)
Powers: (Remember, the capabilities of the hearthstone should be directly correlated to it's aspect. Don't just copy an existing hearthstone but with infernal flavor, although using an existing hearthstone as a reference for how powerful a stone should be given it's rating is probably a good idea.)

One Dot

Two Dot

Three Dot

Name: Transcendent Winds Stone
Aspect: (Adorjan)
Rating: (●●●)
Description: Seven-sided Emerald.
Powers: The hearthstone bearer emulates Adorjan's flighty and clear-minded personality through this stone, adding 3 to the user's MDVs versus commands or orders that do not affect an intimacy the bearer has towards another person. In addition, the bearer may emanate a cutting wind in an area 5 yards around the bearer, emulating The Arrow Wind (8 levels of lethal damage that may be soaked normally). This effect costs 10m and is a speed 6 DV-2 action that counts as a charm activation and cannot be comboed in any way.
Author: Saman
Notes: Might need to reduce the damage from the wind function.

Four Dot

Name: Attentive God-King Emerald
Aspect: Cecelyne/Cult
Rating: ●●●●
Description: A green-tinted gemstone, smoothed perfectly spherical by the sands of Cecelyne, which always seems to show an adoring face in its murky center
Powers: By focusing on the face of anyone who has prayed to them within the past 24 hours, the bearer of this Hearthstone can instantly step through Cecelyne to their side. Note that this only allows transportation within the same 'realm' (Someone in Malfeas cannot go to Creation this way, for example), with a range of (Cult x 4) miles. Using this ability in combat requires concentration, requiring the user to roll (Wits + Awareness + Cult) at at difficulty of (6-Cult Rating). In addition, add 2 to the number of motes gained per hour from each dot of Cult.
Manse: This hearthstone doesn't come with a manse itself, but forms near the worshiped entity. In order to form it, worshippers equal to Cult 4 must gather in a specific pattern across Creation, which forms a prayer to the Endless Desert in Old Realm. The next time the worshiped being sleeps, they will not gain any extra motes from their Cult, but this stone will be at their side.
Author: LinaInverse
Notes: Unsure about the difficulty - too low? Too high? Was originally going to simply increase things having to do with Cult, but 4-dot Hearthstones almost always open entirely new abilities to the character (Gem of Wise Discernment insta-pierces illusions, Gem of Masks allows shapeshifting, etcetera).
