Custom Combination Discipline / Technique

In recent nights Soul Anchors and the such, have been a plague on Necromancers and one of their most useful tactics. While once thought to be a rare thing for Vampires to acquire, this is no longer the case. So Final Nail in the Coffin combines the power of Necromancy and Thanatosis to combat these items and rituals, putrefying flesh, and natural material to break their enchantments. Opening up avenues for Necromancers to once again ply their magic without hindrance.

System: When the Necromancer activates Soul Stealing, they must also expend an additional Temporary Willpower and Blood trait to infuse their necromantic energies with that of Thanatosis’ entropic essence.

Should the Necromancer win the challenge to rip the soul from his target's body, but fails due to a Soul Anchor or other magical effects, or items. The entropic energies of Thanatosis seek out and destroy that which anchors the soul. Whatever it is, as long as there is some physical component to destroy. A nail, tattoo, or object that is preventing the soul from leaving the body. Rituals that are cast beforehand, but have no physical component are unaffected. 

To destroy the Soul Anchor, or item(s) the Necromancer must win a Static Social challenge against sixteen traits, retesting with Occult. If successful, the object is destroyed. Allowing for the soul of the victim to be removed through any means that allow such a thing.

If there is more than one effect preventing the soul from being stolen, this power must be infused with an additional Temporary Willpower and Blood trait to affect each additional effect that tethers the soul. If your generational limits do not allow for additional Blood expenditure in the round, you must simply recast Final Nail in the Coffin when you are able. Targeting the item(s) or magical effects one at a time. A Static Social challenge must be made for each item or ritual.
