••••• • Curse the Laurel
[Ventrue Only]
An unusual application of Fortitude, this power allows a Ventrue who has been successfully staked to slowly restructure her very heart around the offending stake so that it ceases to paralyze the Ventrue.
On a failed roll, the player can spend another Willpower and roll again, but he cannot combine successes from multiple rolls. Only the roll with the most successes applies. On a botch, the vampire may not attempt to neutralize the stake again.
The power only removes the stake from the heart, not from the body. It will remain trapped in the Ventrue’s dead flesh until removed.
