Custom Combination Discipline / Technique

The Baali are the true masters of discretion, discovery and the darkest secrets, whether from the universe or from tormented souls. Feeling a person's sins and peering into the subliminal whispers that each individual unconsciously gives are things that any Baali can do masterfully, and so they have learned to keep the most sordid secrets to be used in the most important moments.

However, sometimes it is much more fun – or useful – for such secrets to be exposed in front of everyone, especially in front of the enemies of the Baali capable of using this power.

After feeling a target's sins, the Baali is able to imbue an opponent with the individual's own filth. With this, anyone, be it a vampire, or any other supernatural entity, who touches the target victim of this power will receive flashes and visions of the poor unfortunate's greatest secrets (the power does not work with mortals). The secrets will be the same secrets received by Baali, after he uses the basic power of Daimoinon "Sense the Sin". How such secrets are interpreted will depend solely on the character receiving such information.

System: First, the Baali must successfully use basic Daimoinon: Sense the Sin on the target. If successful, the secrets the Baali will receive will depend on how many Mental Attributes were wagered in the initial contest, as per the rules of the Discipline. Then, touching the target (perhaps requiring a Physical Challenge, if applicable), the Baali must spend 1 temporary Willpower trait and 1 Blood Point to turn the individual into a "Spirit Touch talisman." Any secrets discovered with Sense the Sin will be "transferred" back to the target, impregnating their skin and clothing (other personal items in their possession are unaffected unless the Baali touches them directly) with any sins the target have, and can be felt by any supernatural creature that touches the target longer than a simple “bump” for the rest of the night. A hug or a handshake are examples of acceptable physical touches for this combination of Disciplines.  A Storyteller must be present to arbitrate any use of this power, and to narrate its effects over the remainder of the evening.

Note: Anyone who learns the power of THE ABDOM REVELATION can only learn it in a Baali Sacrifice Well. The sins of those sacrificed in the Well float freely through it, and in the last lesson for learning this power, the student must perform a sacrifice of an intelligent and sentient creature, gouging out its eyes, and eating them (the eyes are said to be the window to someone's soul). Then he must kill the target while putting his hands through his eye sockets, all while reciting dark chants.
