Custom Combination Discipline / Technique

In Hebrew Lore a Golem is a creature made of stone or clay and magically animated to protect others. Rumor has it that some of these stories rose from rebel Gargoyles protecting communities that gave them sanctuary after the Gargoyle Revolt. This power inverts the normal ability to fuse down into stone to, instead, draw stone up into the user infusing them with phenomenal resistance to damage. The result is a living statue with incredible durability at the price of increased weight.

System: The user spends 1 Blood Point and must touch, or be within 1 foot, of a suitable type of stone as described under Bond With the Mountain. Over two turns tendrils and chunks of the relevant material tear free from their locations and run, like heatless lava, ripping through, or flowing around, any obstacles that flowing stone could reasonably circumvent or push through, to reach the user and meld with their body. The process can be reduced to one turn for an additional Blood Point. A minimum of half the user's normal body weight of the relevant substance must be present for this power to work.

The entire mass being absorbed need not be within this powers range so long as the mass is one contiguous source, pieces joined by mortar, cement or other natural mineral adhesive count, and a portion of the mass falls within the power's range.

When successfully activated the user gains Bond With the Mountain's damage conversion capability as their body takes on the appearance and consistency of whatever they have absorbed. This power, an obvious Masquerade Breach, lasts until the following sunset, or until consciously deactivated and while active the user cannot carry additional people using the Flight Discipline without some other power to modify their weight.

Once this power's effect ends the Gargoyle's body consumes the absorbed stone and returns to normal. This power cannot be used in conjunction with Bond With the Mountain's, or Armor of Terra's, damage conversion capabilities. Armor of Terra's fire protection may still be used and indeed a Gargoyle using this power cannot catch on fire or combust while this power is in effect though they still suffer whatever damage that makes it through their defenses.

By channeling the strength of their muscles into their supernatural reflexes the Brujah have developed this combination discipline.  Rapid Reflexes allows the Brujah to react in a fraction of a second to avoid the chance of being hit or move out of the way during moments of danger.

System: The Brujah spends 1 blood trait to activate this combination discipline for the next scene or an hour.  During that time the Brujah gains a free retest in all challenges to defend against ranged attacks. This combination Discipline may only be learned by members of the Brujah Clan.

To activate this power the Player Character spends a willpower, for the rest of the scene, the character is hyper-aware of the ebb and flow of hostility around them. Should a non-physical action be taken against the player character, they may make a single preemptive non-physical action per attacker.

Requires Path of the Graveborn

SYSTEM
If the Necromancer has The Path of the Graveborn: Death's Scythe active they may spend a willpower, and imbue up to a number of Zombies of their creation, equal to their level of The Path of the Graveborn with similar Scythes from Death's Scythe that do one aggravated damage per successful attack.

Aion being the unbound personification of time, so too is the wielder of this power unbound by time itself.  By loosening the strands of stasis around themselves, held at their ends by sheer force of the resiliency of their forms, the form reverts to a point in time where they would be otherwise unscathed. 

System:  This power is always active:  If the wielder of this power were to be slain or put in torpor, the effect occurs, and then they are instead brought back to a state prior to the effect that would have otherwise incapacitated or slain them.  This power’s effect may only be called on once per night. If it is not actively called upon within one round of the character being downed, the player forfeits the use.  Upon use the character expends 1/3 of their current blood pool, minimum 3 traits, and gains a Temporary Derangement of the ST's choosing for a minimum of 3 months.
