[UA] Adeps with LOTS of charges

How are you handling adepts with (major) charges that get whacked while charged up? Maybe I'm a bit too much into this surreal magick stuff, but I think it could create some interesting magickal effects.

A sudden explosion killing everyone nearby at the time of death? Nah.

A dipsomancer's blood changing into beer or whiskey when he kicks the bucket? Yeah. An Epideromancer twisting and mutating into different shapes like T-1000, ending up a gross, unnatural pile of bones and flesh that would even the Fly throw up and make an Unnatural check? That's it. Boots appearing at the Duke-worshipping Iconomancer's feet? Uh-huh. An Amoromancer pushing a few heartbreaking tears, causing a rain and roses growing up from the ground? Exactly.

What else?

Needless to say, this could really freak the coroner out or act as an over-powered megaphone pointed at the Tiger's ear…

The total charge-up powermonger-a-rama fest could create some nifty effects, also…Either when the adept's carrying several, I mean LOTS OF, charges, or when she's got a major one coming up, couldn't this also manifest in some way, if only in her mind? I think the dipsomancer could see things, were it not for the probability that she's either a) seeing things already b) pretty uncapable of seeing anything.

But were the adept stupid enough to keep the charge for a long enough time, I think it could start affecting her life. Maybe the other's perceive her differently, or she sees the others as a bit tweaked, according to her school. Napoleons walking everywhere drinking booze, playing cards, skins shifting, having sex with an automobile…

-H
why am I so tired, I don't know, but it clearly manifests itself
