Upon activation the vampire may select one physical effect placed upon them by a discipline and end that effect immediately.

| Obeah | 5 |
| Temporis | 1 |
The mystical healing arts of Obeah are limited by their ability to heal only those who are still considered live and active. Those who suffer sudden or unexpected death upon a battlefield before the powers of Obeah could be used have little to no chance of ever coming back. However, this combination discipline art was designed to give the vampire a chance to save those who may have died, if they can act quickly enough. By calling upon the arts of Temporis, a vampire with Obeah can recall a moment in time as a person dies, to reach them and restore them to life. However this must be done quickly, and at great spiritual cost to the user.
System: Touch a creature that has died within the last minute and spend 1 blood Trait, both the user of this combination discipline and the recipient must each spend one permanent willpower trait.. The person who has reached Final Death revives with 1 health level and returns to life. This power can't revive a creature that died of old age, and it can't restore missing body parts. Creatures that have taken too much physical damage cannot be revived or brought back to life at storyteller's discretion. Those brought back by this power suffer from the negative trait Lethargic for the rest of the evening and gain a permanent derangement decided by the storyteller.

Description
This combination discipline was created to see the true extent of how far someone has fallen towards the beast. The more someone has fallen towards the beast the more it manifests in their appearance and mannerisms...but not always in the same way (and some have learned to mask this). It is intended to help those that have fallen to acknowledge their fall, and hopefully to regain what they have lost. It can also just be a useful tool when dealing with other kindred.
System
You must first stare intently at another character.
Then, make a Static Mental Challenge against that character's Mental Traits (Retest Investigation).
If the challenge succeeds, then you may ask the character their Humanity score (and they must answer truthfully). Merits like Blush of Health or Disciplines like Obfuscate cannot help, as Reveal the Beast allows you to see an aspect of the character's true self, and such things will not hide it. If the target is not on Humanity but on a Path of Enlightenment, they will answer “Zero”. If the target does not have a beast you get a “Null” result or non-reading. You will know if there is no beast present.
The character this Discipline is used on may realize you are doing something, and get a strange sensation of vulnerability or exposure. How the character reacts to that sensation is up to them.
| Discipline Name | Discipline Level |

| Auspex | 2 |
| Presence | 4 |
Reveal the Chains
Auspex 2 / Presence 4
Cost: 10xp
When using Aura Perception you have the option of asking an additional question, 'Do you have any Blood Bonds or Vinculum Ratings?' This power is not capable of telling the difference between the two, but does detect their presence or absence. If they are present the user may spend a mental trait to assess the severity of the bond, for the purpose of this power Vinculum ratings 1-3 are considered a 1 point bond, rating 4-7 are considered a 2 point bond and rating 8 - 10 are considered a 3 point bond.
| Discipline Name | Discipline Level |

| Augury | 4 |
| Temporis | 5 |
Reverse the Sands
Auspex 4, Temporis 5
9xp
Sometimes, time flows unnaturally, whether this is the result of Temporis, the intervention of Willworkers, or simply a schism in nature. Reverse the Sands gives a True Brujah an option aside from standing by and watching it unfold. Being able to view the flow of time as they can, those with Temporis can try to halt abnormalities when they find them.
System: The True Brujah must have detected an abnormality in the flow of time with Time Attunement, and have found its source. The character then engages in a contested Willpower Challenge for effects still under their creator’s control, or a Static Willpower Challenge against a difficulty of the creator’s Willpower for abnormalities that have been left to their own devices. If successful, the character stabilizes the abnormality, and the time distortion ceases functioning.
