Having mastered the defensive basics of the Persistent Guard, a vampire with this combination discipline may learn the next step of evolution along it’s tree and philosophy. By heightening their senses to the world around them and focusing on the quick firing of their muscles a vampire with this power can knock away an arrow or other projectile with their bare hand. Further they may attempt to catch the missile and send it back at their attacker with its full force. Though useful against arrows, knives, or spears this combination discipline will offer no aid against bullets or other similar modern types of weaponry.
System: Spend 1 Willpower. For the next scene or an hour you may call upon a “Persistent Guard” retest on all defending range attack challenges from all ranged attacks that use a bow, spear, throwing dagger etc (but not firearms). This retest is not used up once called upon, however it is the last retest you may call in a challenge when defending against a ranged attack when used. If you succeed in your defensive range attack challenge and have used this retest you may spend 1 blood trait and attempt to return the attack back on the attacker make the same challenge against them they have made with you. If you succeed they suffer the effects and damage that was intended for you.

Description: As your mastery of bending those to your will is added to fortitude, so too is the defensive side of your personality. Having mastered the ability to sway the emotional will of those around you you have tempered your own will. Now you are able to deflect those who would try to socially beat you down.
Mechanics: When entering a defensive social challenge, you may use "Majestic" as your bid Trait. This Trait does not count toward totals when resolving ties or overbids, but it can never be lost; thus you may continuously use "Majestic" in successive social tests. Only if you are forced to risk multiple Traits---such as due to wounds or Negative Traits---do you risk losing any of your other Social Traits. If you run out of Social Traits, you cannot use this Discipline. Once you have been completely exhausted, you can no longer enter challenges.

Description: For countless years Clan Ventrue was known as Masters of Dominate. Recently the spread of Blood Magic have made this title hard to prove.

He based his research on the lineage inheritance and this power cannot be taught to those whose blood does not come from a Ventrue Lineage.
System: Spending a willpower trait, the Ventrue can modify his generation for the purpose of resisting uses of the domination or combos using dominate that are subject to restricted
use by generation, as is the discipline Dominate. Willpower spent for this does NOT count against the 1 willpower per round limit. The Ventrue decreases its generation in 1 (one) for comparison purposes only. Only one “Resisting Gaze” can be active at a time.
