Custom Blood Magic: Ritual
Some chronicles allow for their players to develop customized powers for their characters. The following is a compilation of player created custom content in OWBN. At this time, custom content that is created and/or used by vampire PC's is required to be listed.
Difficulty: Intermediate
Duration: Ten servings
Make your bitters and steep them in blood aged at least three complete lunar cycles in sterilized mason jars prepared with your favorite bitters mix (pre-made store-bought will not work.) This mix must be left on a window sill for the entire duration of the aging process to steep in the sun and moonlight.
Take anything you want to make drinkable, add bitters, mix, or shake and be able to taste it, but still gotta vomit that shit up in the mixologist rating in hours.
Each drink removes an hour from that time until you hit 5. At that point, it halves the timer remaining.
What you make drinkable does not do anything for you; it doesn't make you charming; there is no magic effect aside from being able to taste your drink, but now with a splash of bitters... Blood imbibed by subterfuge or intentional consumption still attains the expected results, period.
Each batch can be decanted into a vial that is good for at least 10 consumed beverages.
Making a pitcher that translates to ten drinks takes one vial, etc.
Note: Anything hidden in the drink, such as Vitae, Poison, Tracking nanites, etc., is not invalidated or obfuscated; you're just making it so you can drink the alcohol/liquid and taste and hold it down for the aforementioned time.
Example: little billy bully boy Tremere loved him some Goldschläger and beer because he's that guy at parties.
He got his local alchemist to make him some bitters.
Add these bitters, one drink, and he can hold it down for an hour.
Five drinks (Billy's minimum for a good time), and boy, he's headed to the vomitorium pretty quickly! Oh, Billy, when will you learn?!
