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.
One of the central Ritae developed by the Daughter of the Dark Father, the member of the Cult who knows this ritae may spent quite time in prayer or other signs of blood offerings to Caine will stating a Vow to the Dark Father. A promise to uphold his ways and that of the Sabbat. If their offering is truly devout enough or worthy of the approval of Caine (in their minds) then they may find their own faith uplifted and strengthened.
System: This ritae is largely for Role-Play purposes, but may be used at Storyteller discretion to justify an increase in their True Faith rating if they have the merit Mark of Caine.
The priest says a prayer and recites the story of Caine laying curses upon the Antediluvians for slaughtering his first childer, Enoch. And Zillah becoming a weeping stone. Then the priest and its participants start a vauldrie, placeing one trait of blood in the chalice along with a stone for each participant. At the end of the Vauldrie, each participant swallows a stone. (Normal Vauldrie applies, can be used with the Varient: Sacraments of Caine. )
System: After both ritual tests (Weight of the Stone, and Vauldrie. )
Participants with the stone in their belly, are unaffected by the very first successful use of Stone of the True Form. This last for the night. And once used, may not be preformed again in the same night to reapply its protection.

The Sabbat have never been famed for their brainpower, so it was only a matter of time before a Priest would develop a ritual to increase a Packs thinking power. The Priest who developed it had a slightly sick sense of humour and he could only make the brainpower work by eating brains. Even then it only works for specific occult based information. More work is needed to increase actual brainpower, but the Sabbat may well have more important things to do...
"My mind is open to be expanded The brains of all others will make me stronger The power of brains shall create a web of information Like a spider drinking a corpse we shall sup from the brains of humanity With this brain we will feast; mmm brains."
