Custom Discipline

THINKPOL •◦◦◦◦
Your influence concerning technology is not just based on your previous knowledge-- it is embedded in your everyday stature, life, and ingrained ideas. Passively, your innate knowledge of the current news, leaked through insider to insider, is known through your devices and blood before even the most tech savvy human could ever conceive of it. Without effort, you are in the know-- and some may even consider you the know itself.

Mechanics:
So long as you have your phone, or other internet connected device, you're always considered "in the know", up to and including the bleeding edge of stories before they might hit the public enmasse.
This may cause you to receive any and all stories that hit the news, maybe even irrelevant ones, before they go live and out to the public.
The user of this power is considered to have a level in all influences, and backgrounds associated with influences. at ST discretion.

Summary: Baseline familiarity with current news before anyone else receives it. Easy connections with current events including trends, news, and other relevant information.

UNPERSON ••◦◦◦
Connections are what tie Kindred to their human counterpart-- it is only natural that, with your knowledge in devices, you may cut the tie for a distinct moment in time. Upon your wish, and upon their failure, suddenly-- those earthly mortal contacts dissipate within their grasp. There is no one to call for help-- no device that can successfully assist them per the moment. There is only you, and them -- with the exception that you still have all of your kind contacts intact.

Mechanics:
The user of this power spends a blood, and makes a contested social test with their target.
If the challenge is successful, for the next scene/hour, the victim of this power is unable to call upon their influences or influence related backgrounds (Allies, Contacts, Resources, Network, Retainers, etc as determined by Storyteller).
This also extends to everyday friends-- they cannot contact anyone. It is as if their device has lost all contact. This ends at the end of the scene/hour.

Summary: A person is unable to use electronic devices to get a hold of their influences/backgrounds.

THOUGHTCRIME •••◦◦
You understand that the internet is a deep blessing and a natural curse. Upon usage, those around you are almost entranced by their devices, forced to scroll upon a saddened news story upon horrifying news story. Like opening a Pandora’s Box of inherently soul-crushing news feed, you stuck your fellow friend in a trance, unable to escape their time trapped, metaphorically eaten whole by the device that once aided them. Enraptured by their screen, unable to move, you hold clear leeway for but a moment.

Mechanics:
The user of this power spends a blood, and makes a contested social test with their target. If the challenge is successful, the victim of this power immediately pulls out their phone, or other internet connected device, and begins to 'doom scroll' through their phone for one minute. 
Each social blood trait spent, by the wielder, lengthens this by one minute up to a maximum of five minutes.
The victim will be totally unaware of his surroundings and incapable of taking action for the full duration unless disturbed in some way. Anything causing loss of health levels, even if the victim feels no pain, will end the recursion and bring him to his senses.
Quiet speech will not rouse the target, but a loud shout or gunshot, or even a gentle nudge will break the trance.
If the victim of this power does not possess a readily available phone, or other internet connected device, this power instantly fails to activate.

Summary: A person is forced to doom scroll, putting them in a consistent trance.

HATE WEEK ••••◦
With your followers and internet savvy prowess, it is effortlessly to spin such an elaborate story with no strings attached. With the trusts mortals have in you, your word is essentially truth. The person in question is now infamous, known by the general populace as what you say they are-- a detrimental aspect to society. Fearing for their lives, watching the news station with distinct worry, any sight of the person in question will break out a small hysteria -- tearing fear, worry, rumor, and misdemeanor in the cattle that once saw the person previously as nothing more than what they were deemed to be. It’s almost too easy.

Mechanics:
The wielder of this power spends blood and a willpower to activate this power, and then a variable number of mental traits.
Upon activation, the wielder of this power may spin any story they wish, taking no longer than 5 minutes to describe, and have their story pushed to local news media. 
The amount of mental traits spent to activate this power determines how long it takes for the story to air.  1/ Six Hours, 2/ 3 Hours, 3/ 1 Hour, 4/ 30 Minutes, 5/ Instantly.
During the effects of this power, mortals within line of sight of the user are absolutely convinced of the truth of this story, and are willing to subconsciously behave in ways that enforce mass hysteria. How hysterical is up to the storyteller’s discretion and spun story.

Summary: You can spin a fabricated tale that gets passed as truth in news-related outlets around your location. This induces others to act frantic and paranoid of the new infamous person in question.

ARTSEM •••••
At will, and with a bit of blood, your skin shell dissipates-- electrifying out in a bright blue shock of sheer raw data and energy. Electronics are at your will to traverse, hiding and running between phone to phone and phone line to phone line as you move faster than any mortal could possibly dream of. Within the electronic in question, you communicate the others the same way that anyone with a phone could-- texting, Facetime, messaging, etcetera. You fit into one’s pocket, overhearing their secrets. You fit into one’s headphones, listening to their private conversations. It was as if you were always there-- watching.

Mechanics:
By spending 2 willpower and 2 blood, the wielder of this power wills themselves into the very essence of news media, data.
Their body becomes incorporeal and they exist only as a stream of data, uploading themselves into the internet, and thus able to traverse along local internet connected devices at the speed of thought.
Though they may not view anything traditionally stored there, unless they make traditional hacking challenges as determined by Storyteller. However if it constitutes a throw, while inside the device, you win on ties.
They may house/move their forms in cell phones, computers, cable towers, telephone lines, and communicate with means available on said device. This transformation takes 2 rounds.

Summary: Turn your body into electrical signals and ride the lightning.
