History

The Sons of Ipswich were a group of magic wielding men whose origins existed for centuries since the witch trials. These individuals would move into America where their forefathers were responsible for forming the town of Ipswich. At some point in their history, the men of the family came into possession of The Power a magic ability that was gifted to the first born son of each of the five families who only produced a single child. It was this ability that some of them used in public that led to the witch trials that plagued the land.

Knowing that they would be feared and hunted by fearful Humans, the Sons of Ipswich formed the Covenant that worked to ensure that they used their poweres responsibly. One of the laws of the Covenant stated that a member cannot willfully share their power with another. The history of the families and the nature of the Power were recorded in The Book of Damnation which gave a detailed account of the members of the Covenant.

Overview

The Power was a magical ability and its use by a Son of Ipswich was evident when their eyes turned black. The first blossoming of the Power occurs when the child is of 13 years of age and serves as a test. This is because the use of the Power is dangerous and highly addictive forcing the user to use it more often. Some are able to handle the Power while others are ruined by it. This is because the constant use of the Power weakens and ages the body so that a man in his 40's can appear to be closer to 100 years of age. This is one of the dangers of the Power which fully takes hold on the time of Ascension - the point in life when a Son of Ipswich true power cames to its peak at their eighteenth birthday.

Another aspect of the Power is the capacity to share it with another Son of Ipswich though such an act kills the one giving it away. This is accomplished by saying the words "I will you my power." Those who are given this extra power are far stronger then normal.

Abilities

A Son of Ipswich have a range of abilities at their disposal which are magical in nature, these include:

  • telekinetic arts of moving objects with their minds allowing them to manipulate objects, people or themselves giving them the power to levitate in the air or move a car through the air though this requires a larger amount of power.
  • telekinetic blasts that can be shot from their hands or feet.
  • the power of creation allowing them to make spidery imps that can poison their enemies.
  • the capacity to summon a Darkling, a demonic ghost-like image which requires a great deal of power.
  • the ability to cast illusions to disguise themselves as others.
  • teleportation abilities allowing them teleport people from one spot to another.
  • pyrokinetic abilities allowing them to start flames.
  • the ability to repair damage and avoid death by seemingly recreating objects as seen when Caleb Danvers smashed into a truck but reformed his vehicle on the other side or they can reform broken glass.
  • the power to turn into a ghost-like mist allowing them to glide about their environment and absorb others.
  • cast sleeping charms on people that leaves them in an unconscious state while the spell remains.
