The edge
Rasputin
Charm, charisma & dark power
What does this person actually want — and am I speaking to it, not at it?
The peasant mystic who rose from a Siberian village to the heart of the Romanov court by finding the one lever — a dying boy — and becoming indispensable through it. Influence in its rawest, most dangerous form. Never convened alone.

Kurukulla
Enchantment & magnetizing through bodhichitta
Is this magnetism flowing from genuine care — or am I on some weird shit?
The red dakini of the magnetizing activity, who draws beings in with a flower-arrow — but only for their benefit. The bodhichitta governor on the engine of influence. The reason this council can be used at all.
