Aura de Enfermedad

(Majesty •, Resilience •)

Many Daeva masters of Celerity and Vigor claim that Majesty means nothing when you’re staring down a skull-crushing fist. This Devotion seeks to disprove that notion. It brings forth the vampire’s supernatural presence not to awe a crowd, but to cow and enfeeble a victim. While it won’t completely stop an assailant, it will even the playing field in a tussle.

Cost: 1 Vitae
Dice Pool: Presence + Intimidation + Majesty vs. Composure + Blood Potency
Action: Contested; resistance is reflexive

If successful, this Devotion temporarily removes dots of the victim’s Celerity, Resilience, and Vigor, in whatever combination the vampire wishes. The vampire removes dots one-for-one along with her Majesty dots for the scene, up to her successes. For example, she can sacrifice three dots of her Majesty, losing access to them for the scene, to remove two dots of Vigor and one dot of Resilience from her victim for the scene.
