Custom Combination Discipline / Technique

 

Often times, Kindred will find their Beast becoming enraged when they are presented with bad news.  Through a combination of the social mastery or Presence and an intimate knowledge of soothing the Beast, the user of this combo is able to create an effect that allows them to present bad news or upsetting information in such a way that it will not provoke the Beast's ire.

 

System:  The user spends one willpower trait and make a static social challenge against 8 traits (retest with Leadership) per person you wish to target.  If you succeed, the affected parties will be unable to enter Frenzy for the duration of the scene and only while in the direct presence of the user of this power.  This power only works in social situations such as meetings or negotiations.  If one of the people affected by this power are physically attacked or forced into a supernatural frenzy (such as being targeted by Animalism: Drawing out the Beast), then the power will not shield them any longer.
