 Self Control (Will)
Drawing upon Chaos is a risk within itself. For the Source, maintaining control
of power can be the difference between life and death. Whenever the Source
attempts to use their magic, they must make a Self Control check equal to or
greater than the result of that Spell Casting, Hex Weaving or Ritual Crafting roll.
Failure requires the Source to roll upon the Chaos Unleashed Table. In addition
to this, Self Control increases the Source's Vigor by +2 for every rank gained in this
skill (to a maximum Vigor threshold of 30 at rank 10).
