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.

This ritual has a component: A hemp rope that has been steeped in Kleren (a strong rum that has had hot peppers steeped in it) and then left on an altar dedicated to the Guede for a week (Saturday to Saturday). After being prepared, the rope can be re-used until destroyed.
This ritual takes 30 minutes to cast. During the casting, you draw a circle using the veves for Papa Legba and the Baron LaCroix on a concrete floor using charcoal. You then place a chair draped in purple into the middle of the circle, underneath the prepared rope. Tie the rope into a hangmans knot and place it around your neck while standing on the chair. Ask Papa Legba to open the gate, ask the Baron LaCroix to watch over you, take a drink of Kleren, spit it out in a mist, tell a dirty joke, and then leap with a grin. If you succeed in pleasing the Loa, you will enter the Shadowlands.
System: The ritual takes 30 minutes to cast. As you hang yourself, cast the ritual. If successful, the caster will enter the Shadowlands and may spend a willpower to return at any time. Failure will result in a broken neck and will send the caster into torpor. Also, regardless of success, throw two simple challenges. If the caster looses both, the rope snaps and is rendered inert.
