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.
Birth (Intermediate - 4)
Mostly done to celebrate actual births, occasionally it is adapted for the Lhaka to welcome someone new among them. A priestess leads the ritual with midwives tending the mothers. The ritual usually begins at dawn with a casual gathering of the cultists and pregnant mothers, then around noon a more formal creation of the garden takes place and the mothers are anointed, generally in various plant juices and animal blood. At dusk when labor in full swing the gathered Ba’ham begin to sing and chant. Generally all the children are born at once at the height of the ritual. The cult savagely consumes the afterbirth in an orgy of blood and gore, anointing the mothers and babes alike. The women are quick to heal and the participants all remain close to help foster the new babes into the world. Should anyone threaten the new mothers or children during the next full moon cycle the cult members gain the traits Ferocious x3 and Vigilant and their hands and teeth deal an additional level of damage. (This benefit only applies when an actual human baby is threatened, not a new Lhaka)
