Default Stop the Stalking

How do you rid yourself of a Cherubic or Djinn attunement? I thought I saw it somewhere, but I can't remember.

Ditto the other ways of tracking, from attraction to affinity?

Is there any long term masking Relics or Songs?

Finally, who has a point cost on a set of Shackles to trap a Celestial? Seems they'd be 4 pts a level, but I don't know.

Lead them into a trap and destroy them.

Or trade your angelic stalker for a Djinn of Kronos. (Can those guys track themselves?)

Then all you need to do is hide away from the Djinn until their attachment to you expires. I hear that limbo is good this time of year.

You could get a (Bright) Lilim who's owed a favour from the Cherub/Djinn to get it to drop the attunement. Mind you, then you'd owe a Lilim a favour, so this isn't a perfect solution.

- get yourself beaten up, as the cherub didn't protect you they get dissonance...

Relics, I think a piece of Dominics cloak would work, something from Prince of secrets.

I think you mean will shackles, 5 points per level 10 per if indestructable!

Question...

What exactly do they do? Can you break free of them?

I don't have my Liber Reliquarum around here (it's lying under my bed), but I think they reduce the shackled being's Will by their level, thus making him follow the commands of the shackles' user. But I'm not entirely sure about my answer.

Yep! It's called Djinn Fuzz. See the Liber Reliquarum.

That won't break the attunement, though. It will just convince the Cherub you'd be better off tied to a chair in a cellar or something.

I thought there was something in canon that would scrub a soul clean of such an attunement. I guess I was wrong.

Of course, as soon as I put the computer down and picked up the LR, I found 'Discord Bracelet' something which allows you to inflict "Bound" upon the wearer. So for 18 points, you can have a set which will give Will -6 to escaping someone Celestially. Useful to have.

The will shackles are much more intrustive and costly, enslaving the wearer.

Thanks for the Djinn Fuzz. At least with that to start with, I can extorpolate a cost for the other.

Maybe an Essence powerwash, such as Impudites do to clean Dissonance.

It has potential...

I wouldn't make it too easy or cheap (and probably a basis for a whole campaign in its own right) because its a small step from a djinn lock to Lilim favours are bound to the soul much like the attunement and from there to protection from being made to feel emotions 'cause well they work on your soul and from there protection from all resonances.
Something that throws it off for a while (the old put the tracking device onto someone else trick but can't fool the symphony forever) might be a better way of doing it.
