Re: Aura question
The closest thing I remember about actual descriptions of the auras of beings having radically different auras then humans is in one of the NightBane books (probably TtGD) where it is in one of the "eyewitness" accounts sections of the text.

May you be blessed with the ability to change course when you are off the mark.
Each question should be give the canon answer 1st, then you can proclaim your house rules.

I may debate canon and RAW, but the games I run are highly house ruled. So I am not debating for how I play but about how the system works as written.

True Atlanteans can sense vamps.
The minor super power Nightstalking gives INSTANT recognition of vamps.
As far a necros. I do not know.

Both vampire kingdoms origional and revised say that a vampires aura has dark and sickly streaks and is instantly recognisable IF you have seen it before. if you are not familiar with vampires, you will see a dark and sickly aura but won't know it means "vampire" just "something very very wrong"
Necromancers do not have a special aura other than being a spellcaster, but they do have an innate horror factor that radiates out and tells everyone that something is very very wrong with them. If they are using their union with the dead power to merge with the body parts of a supernatural being, it will probablly make them register as enchanted.

The rules are not a bludgeon with which to hammer a character into a game. They are a guide to how a group of friends can get together to weave a collective story that entertains everyone involved. We forget that at our peril.

Re: Aura question
About the Necromancer horror factor, Juicer Uprising page 97 mentions under an NPC that he can use a spell to hide his horror factor. Under the Disposition section it mentions the NPC makes extensive use of Charismatic Aura to "mute the quiet sense of menace that surrounds him". Does this mean if a necromancer has Charismatic Aura active they do not broadcast a horror factor or strange aura for that time? Would this apply to other beings with horror factors based on aura instead of visage?

Re: Aura question
I think the mirror from Japan book states colors of auras, not sure if the same colors would/should be used with natural or psycjis see aura powers

Re: Aura question
I think your thinking of the Aura of Death spell. Says person will have a black aura and seen as a undead as such. Which is a nice combo spell with invisibility simple

If I were GM'ing I'd allow it.
