Custom Sabbat Ritae
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.
OOC: Written from the Redemption perspective, it could be adapted easily going forward. This was the latest version.
Ignoblis Ritae - Confession
The Martyr performing the Rite places three blood and a desired incense within a censer. Burning this combination creates a cloying smoke that envelops the Martyr as well as whomever is giving confessional. With the expenditure of 1 Willpower, it seals the confessional. This effect will block out powers and disciplines used to scry upon the confession equal to the Path Rating of the Martyr casting the Rite. At the end of the Rite, the Martyr spends 1 Willpower to center themselves. Whatever is discussed during the confessional cannot be pulled from the mind of the Martyr accepting the confession.
**Designer Note: This allows for the confession as a Rite as prescribed for Redemption and Nocturnal Redemption while also maintaining the secrecy of the confessional, functionally locking it away in the Martyr's mind. Both parties know what was discussed, but someone cannot come by later and just dig in the Martyr's head with telepathy, mind effects, or other coercion to pull the information out. Should the Martyr casting the Rite decide at a later date to willingly give up the confession that has been secured, they must freely spend 1 Permanent Willpower to recall the information, reflecting the pain and anguish of the decision to go against their Path. This act of betrayal will cause the Martyr an immediate loss of 1 Path Rating, and possibly require tests for more depending on the depth of the betrayal.**
