Custom Sabbat Ritae
Some chronicles allow for their players to develop customized powers for their characters. The following is a compilation of player created custom content in OWBN. At this time, custom content that is created and/or used by vampire PC's is required to be listed.
This unholy article of clothing is a priestly vestment with a Sabbat blessing and curse upon it. This ritae was crafted by the more necromantic members of the Sabbat that took the joy of rebellion against the Church one step further. A Sabbat priest with this ritae must stalk, hunt, and kill a high ranking member of the mortal clergy. After soaking the Priest’s garment in the blood of its victim, the Sabbat priest performs dark prayers to caine and removes the mortal clergy’s symbols form the robe and replaces them with symbols of the sabbat and books nod. There after the Vestment allows any who wear it some limited interaction with the dead, but comes with a terrible curse for any Sabbat member who might still have mortal feelings.
System: The performance of this ritae creates the Vestment of Vileness magic item from The white wolf Sabbat books. To create a Vestment of Vileness requires the priest to spend 1 permanent willpower to create one. Additionally, the suggested updated mechanics for the Vestment of Vileness are below (as the original is based on Second Edition Vampire, where Necromancy was not a blood Magic).
To activate the powers of the Vestment of Vileness costs 1 willpower for the next scene or an hour. During that time the Sabbat priest can see into the shadowlands. They are able to see, hear, and speak to any wraiths during this time. Additionally, the Priest can spend 1 willpower point to give a command to a wraith he can see while this item is active. The mechanics for this command are the same as the dominate level Mesmerism but only works on wraiths. There is a curse on this robe, the curse dooms the owner to lose any loved one who touches the robe. Any character who wears a Vestment of Vileness permanently loses the Merit True love if they possess it, and if they do not, may never purchase it.
