••• Harrowing

Even dreams offer no respite to the enemies of the necromancer. Restful sleep becomes pure terror as Song of the Dead continues to haunt the sleeper through nightmares.

System

The vampire makes eye contact with the victim, while her player spends one blood point and rolls Manipulation + Occult (difficulty of the target’s permanent Willpower). If successful, the victim feels a slight sense of unease. When he next sleeps, he suffers horrible nightmares about his own demise. Even though he cannot fully remember the content of his visions after he wakes, the emotional trauma prevents him from regaining Willpower.

In addition, his twisted déjà vu and unnatural paranoia give him the Nightmares and Eerie Presence Flaws for the day. A botch in casting this power inflicts the same terrible dreams on the vampire when she slumbers.
