••••• • Blood Awakening

[Vizier Only]

This power allows a Cainite to scan memories latent in the blood belonging to one from whom she has recently fed.

System

The vampire must first consume one blood point from another character. Roll Perception + Empathy (difficulty 7). The number of successes determines the clarity accessed from archived memories echoed in another’s blood which the vampire has consumed. As the memories manifest, the vampire may lose track of reality increasing the difficulty of Perception-based rolls by two. Consult the chart below for effects, with each degree of success building upon the last.

A botched roll floods the vampire with random memories from those whose vitae she has ingested in the past, during which time she is stunned and completely unable to act until she spends blood in an attempt to purge the visions (one blood point per failure on the roll which may require more than one turn to spend, depending on Generational limits).

Succes

• 1 success Vague impressions from the most recent memories up to a few hours before the blood was consumed.
• 2 success Vague impressions of memories that had a strong emotional impact throughout the subject’s existence up to when the blood was consumed.
• 3 success Pertinent details surrounding memories up to a few hours before the blood was consumed.
• 4 success Pertinent details surrounding memories that had a strong emotional impact throughout the subject’s existence up to when the blood was consumed.
• 5 success Anything the subject knew or felt in the last decade up to the time the blood was consumed.
• 6+ success Anything the subject knew or felt throughout his existence up to the time the blood was consumed.
