Sueño Brutal del Sol

(Nightmare •••••, Resilience ••)

Nothing frightens Kindred worse than the vengeful rays of the sun or the heat of the fire. Most Kindred can manage short bursts in the daylight, but most avoid it whenever possible. This Devotion curses a sleeping victim to suffer all the burns the vampire experiences from the sun, and curses him with horrifying dreams of the sun’s purifying touch. These terrifying daymares leave the victim waking terrified and charred.

This Devotion may only be used on Kindred victims. It costs 4 Experiences to learn.

Cost: 1 Vitae
Dice Pool: Manipulation + Empathy + Nightmare, vs. Composure + Blood Potency
Action: Contested; resistance is reflexive

Once used successfully, this Devotion remains active for a number of nights equal to the successes rolled. While it is active, the victim, selected by touch, suffers every sunlight wound the vampire takes, so long as the victim is asleep when the damage occurs. The vampire still takes the damage. This damage can awaken the victim. A victim so awakened wakes with the Frightened Condition (see p. 303).
