Custom Sabbat Ritae

Prayer is a powerful way to focus faith into impressive manifestations of the divine. Especially numerous are prayers for protection against the malicious forces that surround us always. Adapting these prayers into Sabbat doctrine and calling upon Caine's strength to protect them in battle with the infernal, participants in the Hymn of Faith become capable of warding off evil. Though this Ritae is similar to the lost ritae which bestowed some faithful Sabbat with the Mark of Caine, its effects are far more narrow in scope and far more temporary. System: If performed successfully, those who participate in the Hymn of the Faithful receive the smallest measure of Faith in their purpose and in Caine for the remainder of the evening. They benefit from a single level of True Faith, which can only be employed against Demons and their servants. 

Such blessed may attempt to repel the infernal by brandishing a symbol of Caine or speaking passages from the Book of Nod, invoking his belief (“In the name of Caine, I command you to be gone,” etc.) and employing a Social Challenge. Success means the demon or minion must flee the area immediately. Failure means the creature must retreat a few feet and cower before taking action, and it still may not initiate any attacks during the next turn, although it may defend itself normally.
