Blessing of the Captive Eye
Obfuscate •••, Taurobolium •
With a drizzle of blood on a subject’s brow, the Pretty can change the way that mirrors, cameras and other refl ective media capture that individual’s visage. When seen in a mirror, photograph or onscreen from any kind of camera, a mortal’s form appears blurry or warped; her face is especially disturbed. Vampires, on the other hand, experience the opposite effect. They no longer show up obscured in mirrors or upon photographic media and, in fact, appear quite crisply.
Effect
On a successful roll, the described effects take place. Mortals become obfuscated in mirrors and photographic media, whereas Kindred now show up in mirrors and photographic media. An exceptional success allows a +1 bonus to Stealth rolls (for mortals) and a +1 bonus to Persuasion rolls (for vampires). Failure indicates nothing happens, and a dramatic failure causes the sprinkled blood to burn the subject with one lethal point of damage.
The effects of this power last for a number of nights equal to the Galloi’s Blood Potency score. The Pretty may end this power prematurely by spending a Willpower point.
