Editing Nephandi (section)

==Qlipphothic Spheres==
These probably aren't still canon, because they were [[skub|pretty unpopular]] when they were introduced in Revised, but the Nephandi have their own proprietary bag of tricks called Qlipphothic Spheres. They're basically the regular spheres, but ''eeeevil'', geared toward the destruction or corruption of their specific aspect of reality. 

'''Qlipphothic Correspondence''' is for rending space, severing sympathetic connections, erasing data, and probably making black holes. 

'''Qlipphothic Entropy''' is like regular Entropy, but eviler. It has an easy time turning the user into a [[lich]] and making things fall apart, but kinda sucks at good old-fashioned luck manipulation.

'''Qlipphothic Forces''' negates energy, creating cold or stopping kinetic energy in its tracks.

'''Qlipphothic Life''' is all about [[Book of Vile Darkness|cancer powers]] and fleshwarping. A favorite of [[That Guy|angsty BDSM-curious landwhales who want to be]] [[Tzimisce]] without having to deal with the clan's baggage.

'''Qlipphothic Matter''' destroys regular, wholesome matter and replaces it with sanity-blasting non-euclidean crimes against physics and chemistry. Also used for [[Wraith: The Oblivion|Soulforging]] and other feats of evil engineering.

'''Qlipphothic Mind''' destroys or tarnishes memories and allows the wielder to enter a null-mind state to commune with the evil consciousness of Oblivion or some other [[edgy]] crap. Can you tell why these were unpopular yet?

'''Qlipphothic Prime''' can [[Azorius Senate|unmake or negate other Mages achievements in the form of counterspells]] and turn Quintessence into unusable ''evil'' Quintessence.

'''Qlipphothic Spirit''' can kill normal spirits and call up demons, [[Werewolf: The Apocalypse|Banes]], evil ghosts, and gibbering elder things from the outer darkness.

'''Qlipphothic Time'''... I'm gonna be honest, I have no idea. Probably creating time paradoxes and retconning people out of existence? Who knows. Nobody uses these fucking things, even without regular Time being a pain in the ass to use. 

The elusive Tenth Sphere sought by all the various factions in Mage is, according to the Nephandi, the '''Absolute''', or '''Descent''', which basically means the end of the universe.  They get their wish in the last of the possible scenarios in the ''Time of Judgment'' supplement for the gameline.  It's bleak, and not just because it's one of the more poorly-written scenarios in a book that only had one-and-a-half good ones out of the way in the first quarter of the text.
