Power foci live up to their name. They are very powerful foci that temporarily increase your effective Magic rating. That means they add to your Sorcery, Conjuring, and Enchanting dice pools, along with any other test where Magic is involved. Power foci can take any form, but for some reason, rings and amulets are quite popular.

Qi Focus

		YANTRA TATTOOS Here are a few examples of qi foci from the Tantric tradition. These yantra tattoos are quite popular among young adepts, partly because they’re effective, partly because it’s hard to remove, but mostly because they look pretty badass. Panchamukhee (five Deva faces) The five faces are arranged in a circle to to ward off illness and danger, making this focus perfect for Natural Immunity. Ha Taew (five rows) This Enhanced Accuracy focus is usually tattooed on the left shoulder blade. Each of the five lines relates to a different blessing for success and good luck. Kao Yord (nine spires) This Improved Physical Attribute (Body) qi focus is typically tattooed on the center top of the back in various sizes and levels of complexity. Paed Tidt (eight points) Represents protection in an eight-pointed figure denoting the eight directions of the universe. It is round in shape, typically tattooed on the center of the back, and used for the Spell Resistance power. Sip Tidt (ten points) A ten-pointed version of Paed Tidt that protects in ten directions instead of eight. Often used for Mystic ArmorSuea (tiger): This Killing Hands focus depicts a tiger, or more often twin tigers, surrounded by script. Yord Mongkut (spired crown) This round Combat Sense qi focus is usually tattooed on the top of the head.
Qi (pronounced “chee”) foci only work for adepts. They channel mana into your adept powers. A qi focus can be an object, like other foci, but it can also be worked into a body modification, like tattoos, ritual scarring, and piercings. Each focus is specific to a single adept power at a specific level. While the focus is active, you get the power contained in it, or if you already have the power the focus’s levels are added to your own (if it’s a power with levels, that is; otherwise there’s no benefit for you). The Force of the focus must be four times the Power Point cost of the power it holds, so a Level 1 Improved Ability (Unarmed Combat) qi focus is a Force 2 focus, while a Level 1 Improved Reflexes focus is Force 6 if you do not have Power Point of your own in the power, or Force 4 if you already have levels of your own.
