Prerequisite: The ability to cast at least one spell, and an evening spent casting in front of a Curate who thanked you for your attendance.
You have learned to cast like a man standing politely at the back of a service. You gain the following benefits:
- You can cast a spell of a level at or below your earring’s rated cap without any verbal or somatic components, provided casting it is the only action you take that turn and you do not move.
- A creature observing you must succeed on a Wisdom (Perception) check contested by your Charisma (Deception) check to recognize that you cast anything at all. On a failure, the casting is not witnessed and you gain no Heat from it.
- You have advantage on Dexterity (Sleight of Hand) checks made to conceal a spellcasting focus, component pouch, or anything else that would be confiscated.
Drawback. The stillness is the whole trick. Your speed becomes 0 until the start of your next turn and you cannot take reactions during that time. If you take damage before your next turn begins, the suppression snaps audibly — the spell still works, but the casting is automatically witnessed by every creature that can see or hear you.
