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.
Inspired by the Ghede holiday, and designed after the Martial ritae, this ritae is designed to
entwine the members of a pack in protection by calling to their Ancestors. Each member of the
pack participating in the ritae donates a point of vitae to the wick of a candle of which the
Sabbat ankh is engraved into while saying the name of a beloved Ancestor. The Ductus or
Priest leading the ritae, lights the candle calling once again upon the Ancestors and concluding
with a beseeching to Caine to come and watch over the pack. The participants then celebrate
with rhythmic drumming and dancing for the length of time it takes for the candle to burn.
Following this ritae, a pack feels watched over by their loved ones and grants a feeling of
protection among the participants.
System: Each Cainite participating must donate 1 point of vitae to gain the spiritual strength
from the pack and their combined Ancestors for performing this ritual. Participants are granted a
phantom observation retest (awareness or alertness) due to the guidance of their Ancestors as
long as the Ductus or Priest performing the ritae spends temporary WP up to their Path Rating
for each participant to be included (i.e. if 3 WP is spent, 3 people can be included)
