Charmed Samadji (1 - 6 point Merit or Flaw)
Coordinator Approval. Clanbook: Ravnos (1st Edition)
Your family or sire has gifted you with a item of power. You are expected to carry this powerful draba until you sire your own progeny, then pass the gift on to her. Power levels of samadji vary greatly ; a item may give bonus traits on certain actions, or provide the user the benefit of some basic or intermediate power’s. A samadji is activated by spending a Blood Trait or a Willpower trait with a static Willpower test vs. 7 traits, the effect’s last for an hour or a scene, whichever comes first. You should work with a Storyteller to determine the power and the final value of the object, after gaining Coord approval.
Note: Only Ravnos may activate this item, as it is attuned to the blood. The flaw version of this, if taken, is a cursed item that is extremely hard to get rid of and is considered to always be active. It may subtract traits or retests on certain actions, or hinder the user’s powers they already possess, at storyteller discretion.
TO (Under New Background)
Draba 1-5 point background
Your family or sire has gifted you with an item of power. You are expected to carry this powerful Draba until you sire your own progeny, then pass the gift on to her. Power levels of Draba vary greatly; an item may give bonus traits on certain actions, or provide the user the benefit of some basic or intermediate power’s. A Draba is activated by spending a genre appropriate trait, or a Willpower trait, with a static Willpower test vs. (level of the background) traits, the effect’s last for a scene or hour, whichever comes first. You should work with a Storyteller to determine the power and the final value of the object.
Note: Only Ravnos/Blooded Rom/Phralmulo may activate this item, as it is attuned to the blood.
System: Multiple versions of this background can be taken to represent multiple items. Levels 1-3 of this background (per item) is simply ST approval, but 4-5 require Coordinator Approval. Draba do not stack, but multiple may be active. (Example: Rob the Ravnos has a Draba that grants him one trait on social challenges, and a separate one that gives two traits on leadership challenges. He will only be able to benefit from one, or the other)
Each level invested provides one of the following;
1 level of the background
+1 trait on a certain type of challenge, or attribute category (Max 3)
2 levels of the background
+1 Health level of armor, or +1 level of damage to a weapon (may not exceed +1)
3 levels of the background
A luck based retest/ability based retest
4 levels of the background (Coordinator Approval)
Unique effect, or basic power
5 levels of the background (Coordinator Approval)
