• Magic - Vampire
• Aspirations
• Keep Idun's resources in Idun (Merchant Marine, etc).
• Make the Mayor look as ridiculous to others as you see him.
• Squash any power grabs from Elites or Megacorps.
• Ventrue pg 26, Requiem
• Clan Bane (The Aloof Curse): Excellence breeds contempt. When people are puppets for your will and buildings are play pieces on a grand game board, it is hard not to become distant. It is so very easy for you to become detached from those people, places, and things that keep the Man secure in your breast.
• Favored Attributes: Presence or Resolve
• Disciplines: Animalism, Dominate, Resilience
• Unconquered Estate/Invictus pg 38, Requiem

Mesmerize •

All a vampire has to do is meet her victim’s eye to catch him in her thrall. Her control isn’t obvious; she just asks him to do something and her victim acquiesces. He could unlock a door, pass her a gun — or forget ever meeting her. Some cruel vampires mesmerize passers-by just to take the rap for their crimes.

• Cost: None
• Dice Pool: Intelligence + Expression + Dominate vs. Resolve + bp
• Action: Instant
• Mesmerized Condition on the victim
• Action: Instant
• Failure: The vampire’s victim proves stronger-willed than

she’d thought.

• Success: The vampire holds her victim’s gaze for just a second,

but it’s enough to inflict the Mesmerized Condition (p. 305).

• Exceptional Success: The vampire’s control flows over the

victim’s brain like water. They want to do whatever the vampire says. The vampire can issue a command in the same action as mesmerizing the victim.

Once she has inflicted the Mesmerized Condition, the vampire can command the victim as an instant action. Her commands can’t be longer than three or four words, and she has to be direct — her control doesn’t extend to issuing vague commands. “Follow me,” “Shoot your husband,” and “Repeat after me…” are all suitable commands, while “Forget,” “Submit,” and “Do my bidding” have too much room for interpretation. She can even mess with the victim’s memory, making one statement about the current scene that victim will remember as truth. While she can still only use simple and unambiguous commands, she can pack a lot of changes into four words: “You killed that man” and “I was not here” combine to frame the victim for murder

Iron Edict

Once she’s got a hotline into her victim’s mind, the vampire can take some time to play with his thoughts and memories. While it takes more of her power to relay complex commands, she goes from jerking her victim’s strings to controlling him like a puppeteer, making his every movement dance to her tune. Cost: 1 Vitae; none if victim is in Vinculum with the vampire Dice Pool: None

• Requirement: The vampire must have inflicted the Mesmerized Condition on the victim
• Action: Instant

The vampire can issue a longer command to a Mesmerized victim. This edict can be up to three sentences long, and can include a successive series of actions. The command takes two turns per sentence to convey. As with Mesmerize, the vampire’s control doesn’t extend to commands that rely on the victim’s interpretation. The victim takes the Dominated Condition (p. 302) and will follow the vampire’s commands as soon as she finishes speaking them. He continues to follow the order until he has completed his task, or the sun rises. Many Kindred use Iron Edict to issue a simple command, such as “Obey my direct instructions when I give them to you,” which effectively gives them control over the minion until the sun comes up — though it doesn’t extend the duration of the Mesmerized Condition.

Entombed Command •••

The vampire has enough control over her meat-puppet to implant a subconscious trigger, a specific set of conditions that will turn him into her slave when he encounters them. She can force her victim into a suggestible state when he points a gun at her, make him transfer all of his money into her account when he hears Beethoven’s Ninth Symphony, or only allow him to remember his son when he smells lilacs. Cost: None; other Dominate powers may cost Vitae. Dice Pool: Intelligence + Subterfuge + Dominate – victim’s Resolve

• Requirement: The vampire must have inflicted the Mesmerized Condition on the victim
• Action: Instant
• Duration: One week per success, or one month per success (see below).
• Roll Results
  • Dramatic Failure: The vampire’s attempt to set up a trigger backfires. The victim loses his Mesmerized Condition. For the next week, when he encounters one trigger that the vampire attempted to set he instead gains the Steadfast Condition (p. 306). Failure: The attempt to set triggers in the victim’s mind doesn’t take. Is he fighting back, or is there another reason? Success: The vampire can implant a number of subconscious triggers equal to the number of successes rolled to trigger specific effects of other Dominate powers. She must pay any Vitae cost for these powers as normal. These triggers remain in place for one week per success, or one month per success if the victim is in any stage of Vinculum towards the vampire. During that time, the effects of the trigger emerge each time the victim encounters the stimulus.

Coils

Coil of the Wyrm

Stir the Beast

Before the Beast can be tamed a Dragon must first know how to wake it. For a point of Willpower he may enter frenzy unprompted. When he does so the Dragon selects a target or goal, no more than a few words, which becomes the objective of his frenzy. He has no more control over his actions than he would in an involuntary frenzy (p. 103), and all rolls to escape frenzy before the stated objective is met are made at a –2 die penalty. When the original goal is no longer pressing or possible, the frenzy ends.

Using Stir the Beast is a reflexive action, and it can be used to avoid involuntary frenzy.

Experience Log

Expression+2 (from 0) (4)

• Worked with Pricely trying to make an improved version of the brochure. In the end, we ended up throwing out all my ideas and keeping it the same, but it was an experience.
• Wrote letters to the editor of Eden City's major "paper" talking about how the mayor needs to do more to stop the track down the firethorn attacks, intimating that they may be based on human agency, not randomness.

+1 to Blood Potency. (5)

• Hit 50. (around 35 years of being a vampire). 35 hit back with a point of blood potency. Feels great, except, at this rate I'm going to be down to kindred blood all too soon.

+4 dots of Origin: Elite (4)

• Took a vacation under an assumed identity (B Rosalynd would be a bit too concpicious) to spend time with the family. Share their frustration with the new head, but reminded of why I like my folks.
• Spent time networking with the family around the matter of the new cousin.
• Engaged in a Remote Hackday to duplicate the main product of a competitor (and jackass). Open sourced the result anonymously. Doing good but also gaining an advantage; what's their loss is our gain (and a lot of other people's, but who can be a better shark than a Rosalynd? Well, a vampire Rosalynd, that's who).

+1 Resolve (4) (to 4)

• Spent a bunch of time at boring Invictus meetings

+1 Composure (4) (to 4)

• Dealt with the Karve crew without frenzying. Much.

+1 Intelligence (4) (to 5)

• Spent a bunch of time trying to figure out how the Eden city's government even works.
