Custom Combination Discipline / Technique

The vampire takes on the form of a Hungry Shade from the Abyss, draining a bit of his psyche into the primordial nothingness. He spends 2 Blood Traits, 1 Willpower Trait, and expends 5 Mental Traits. At the end of the round the vampire's body collapses into itself and reforms as a giant semi-solid eel with four writhing tentacles. The enhanced form grants the vampire the Traits Wiry, Tenacious, Lithe, and Intimidating x2, and the negative trait Warped x3. The Shade form cannot use weapons, but can strike with its tentacles. A strike with a tentacle does 2 Lethal and (if the user wins or ties a simple test) a Willpower Trait is drained from the victim and added to the Shade's totals. Any WP above the user's maximum fade away at the end of the round. The vampire's semi-solid form is resistant to physical attacks, reducing all physical damage taken by one level. However, the Shade form takes double damage from sunlight and fire. Additionally, the vampire is suited for life in the Abyss, able to see in all forms of darkness, both magical and mundane.
