• Fingertongue

The Norvegi learn first how to create hundreds of tiny, hollow needle-sharp points on their fingers. The little plates that protrude from the vampire’s fingertips (and which look a bit like a flatter, paler barnacle in texture) aren’t big enough to cause damage, but they can pierce skin and suck in blood, meaning that when this power is activated, the Norvega can drink through her fingers.

Effect

In order to drink blood, the character needs to be able to touch and hold her opponent. She can drink through her fingers at the same rate as a vampire with fangs can drink normally – at a rate of one Vitae and one lethal damage per turn (see Vampire: The Requiem, p. 165). Because the tiny capillaries on her fingertips don’t cause the effects of the Kiss, the vampire may need to grapple her opponent (as per The World of Darkness Rulebook, p. 157) in order to keep feeding.
The site of such a feeding is inhumanly clean. The skin where such a wound is inflicted becomes dry and calloused, drained completely of moisture and slightly flaky and dusty to the touch for a few days afterward. Victims drained completely by a hungry Norvenga can leave an entire corpse in such a condition, practically mummified by the experience.
The vampire can also use the capillaries on her fingers to suck in blood from a container or from a puddle on the ground, again at a rate of one Vitae per turn.
