New stunt “minor magic effect”
As a stunt, you may perform a minor magical effect Near you (that is, within 4 paces). Minor effects have no real combat usage, but they can impress people around you. You can move a handful of earth, or spark a candle to life, call forth a drink of water, bend a minor amount of metal, sprout a small plant, etc.

Your control over matter allows you to manipulate things up to 4 paces away with no penalty for lack of tools. As a general rule, you will have to use Craft skill to repair things or to manipulate materials. You could also use this stunt to grant an assist bonus to someone’s Craft, Digging, Endurance, Presence, or Swimming dice.
