If you take the Casts No Reflection ability and the True Reflection flaw, then while you aren't in your apocalyptic form, your reflection looks the same as your apocalyptic form would look to the naked eye.

If you take the Casts No Reflection ability and the Cast No Reflection flaw, then you never cast a reflection, regardless of whether you're in your apocalyptic form.

  • "Apocalyptic form", "revelatory form", and "visage" are all the same thing.
  • Even if you only manifest one effect, you still count as taking your apocalyptic form.
  • While in your apocalyptic form, physical and mental merits/flaws do not apply. (DPG 75) We interpret "fully" as "to any degree whatsoever".
  • Custom apocalyptic forms:
    • Demons can replace one or more effects of their apocalyptic form, but must retain at least one standard effect (either low or high torment). (DPG 98)
    • Points are per DPG chapter 4. (Some are clearly different names for the same thing. Shroud of Flames and Ink Cloud don't appear to be in DPG at all, they're both rated at 2.)
    • XP cost is (10*difference) XP if the new form has more points total and/or low-torment, free if it has same or fewer.
    • Demons whose total is under 16 can add effects. XP cost for going above 16 total and/or 8 low-torment is 10 per dot over.
    • Effects currently granted in a pact can't be replaced.
    • Multiple form powers that improve the same stat cannot be stacked.
    • Multiple form powers that improve two stats used together (probably attribute+ability) can be stacked.
    • These XP costs override DPG page 124. Changes with a non-zero XP cost are not available during chargen.

Custom

Modifiers:

  • -1 if high-torment (exception: effects marked with * can only be high-torment)
  • +1 if out-of-house (neither common nor in-house)

"Grapple" includes both clinch/grapple (restrain and cause damage) and hold (restrain only)
