Custom Combination Discipline / Technique

The Toreador Clan is mystically fascinated by art, emerging in its many forms, delving into its nuances. Exploring this connection, the Toreador Clan has developed ways to make its art unique to those who experience it. Sharing the trance that it itself had to consume throughout the creation of a work.

System:
As a general effect, the Toreador spends a Willpower point as a general cost in the creation of the Work of Art (Crafts) or also in its execution (Performance). They must have Crafts or Performance 4 or higher. All non-Toreador who experience art generated in this way feel mystically bound by it. They experience an "enchantment" effect. The duration of this "enchantment" is at least 5 minutes or as long as the performance lasts (whichever is longer).

The "Non-Toreador" can only voluntarily come out of this state by spending a Willpower Trait, although injury or other distractions (such as an attack or an elbow from a neighbor) can break this spell.

If the "Non-Toreador" does not spend Willpower, and is interrupted or impeded, he will remain thinking about the art for the entire night. Gaining the Negative Trait: Oblivious.

Finally, while using Blessing of Venus, the Toreador can spend a Permanent Willpower Trait. If you do this, for all spectators, if the target chooses to interrupt the trance generated (Willpower expenditure), or is prevented for some reason from completing the observation, in addition to the normal effects added above, he gains the Obsession/Compulsion derangement in the Work for a period of one month equal to 12 minus his Willpower index (Minimum of one month), or until he has to experience it completely (At least 5 minutes of observation) again.

If he observes the work of Art in its entirety, he understands the channeling of all concepts. Art serves to inspire. With this, the "Non-Toreador" gains the benefit of a bonus Retest to be used on the next Virtue test until the end of the night. This benefit does not stack.

The Blessing of Venus is only useful for plays or presentations of Art. It does not serve for items created and presented at a glance in situations of premeditated danger or imminent tension (It does not have or should not have effectiveness in combat).

Once the work/performance with Blessing of Venus has already been observed by the "Non-Toreador", the same work will provide only the penalty and adopt the following Text:

The "Non-Toreador" can only come out of this state voluntarily, by spending a Mental Trait, although injury or other distractions (such as an attack or an elbow from a neighbor) can break this spell.

Created by: Akmonhotep, aka Julio.
This power was created by a Follower of Set who became blind as a punishment for his sins. The kindred with this power is able to perceive the world around him by using senses akin to echolocation.

System:
To activate this power, the kindred must spend One temporary Willpower trait and Three blood traits. The Vampire use the combined Disciplines to create tremor, heat and sonar sensorial organs which grants the ability to "see" in total darkness. However, it is not related to sight. By creating sounds as tapping a cane, lightly stomping a foot, snapping fingers, or making clicking noises with their mouth they perceive the reflected sound-waves or echos to form a mental image of his surroundings. This "mental image" is limited to general format and exact distance of the objects around him and a precise idea of the landscape within the power's range.

Basic Obtenebration "Shroud of Night" affects the character partially as it muffle sounds. If the character is caught in such area while this power is active, she suffers no Trait penalty in resolution of challenges, but they are still forced to make a single retest on any successful challenge because of the muffled sounds.
Basic Quietus "Silence of Death" creates a Blind 3-meter radius sphere which hinders Blind Snake's Trick making a "dark" area where the user cannot perceive what is inside.

The area the user can perceive is a 10fts. (3m)-radius diameter sphere per level of Auspex the character has.

Description: Blind the Sun
Pre-requisites: Temporis 4, Fortitude 2.
By spending 1 blood point and 1 willpower in a standard action, the Kairos will bring the night to a 3 feet square room. For the next 8 hours, and as long as the Kairos stays in the room, no kindred within that room will suffer from the effects of day time, including damage and/or sleepiness. After 8 hours, the room, and everyone in it, is affected as if at sunrise. Should the Kairos leave the room before those 8 hours, the effect ceases instantly. Should anyone enter the room during the use of the power, he/she will not seize its effects.
Cost: 12 XP

Blood Born Warrior

Fortitute 2 Quietus 2 requirement

Warrior bloodline only

Cost: 1 Blood and 1wp. Gain the negative traits Violent, and Monsterous for the scene or hour

Effect: For the next scene or hour, the mechanic’s for spending blood traits to gain “Bloody”/whatever your house rules call blood traits used as physical traits traits above and beyond your generational limit are changed. Rather than having all such traits disapear at the end of the round a limited number of the “bloody” traits will continue to exist for the scene or hour. The limit is determined by how much Fortitude and Quitus you possess. At second basic in both powers you may have two “Bloody” traits above your generational limit for the scene or hour. At first intermediate in both Fortitude and Quitus you may have three “Bloody” traits above your generational limit for the scene or hour. At second Intermediate in both Fortitude and Quitus you may have four “Bloody” traits above your generational limit for the scene of hour. At Advanced in both Fortitude and Quietus you may have five “Bloody” traits above your generational limit for the scene or hour. “Bloody” traits may be risked and lost as regular traits, and they count for the comparison of ties.  “Bloody” Traits lost may be regained by spending blood, but the absolute upper limit on traits you may possess beyond you generation limit remains the same.

A trained vampire can learn to track their prey across any distance once they have tasted the blood of their victim.  This combination discipline is a reflection of this ability.  As long as the vitae remains in the system of the vampire, their prey has little hopes of alluding them should they manage to escape.  In this the vampire has but smell the air like a blood hound to find their target.

System:  To use this combination discipline the character must first successfully feed from their target (other willingly or through combat), and mark on their character sheet which of their blood traits is from that target.  Once they do so, the character for the next scene or an hour may spend 1 blood trait (It must be one from the target) and make a static Mental Challenge retested with Investigation equal to a difficulty of the target they feed from Mental Traits.  Should they succeed, the character will know the exact detailed location of their target within in the range of a city.  This ability lasts for as long as the character has blood traits in their pool that come from the victim.
