Eupraxia

Vampire the Requiem - Covenant - Ordo Dracul

This power is what separates the pious monsters that descend from the unique blend of Orthodox tradition and Slavic folklore from the pious monsters of The Lancea Sanctum. The precise origin of this Discipline is unclear, however. The Tismanu claim it is the result of divine Orthodox faith transferred to the Blood when the first Tismanu was Embraced by a vampire decades or more before Dracula’s damnation. The name, Eupraxia, was given to the power much later. Other Dragons claim that, while the Tismanu existed as a lineage of vampire-monks prior to the foundation of The Ordo Dracul, the bloodline didn’t gain its mystical powers (and, so, its Status as a genuine bloodline) until after the cursing of Dracula. Tonight, it’s little more than an academic debate.
The Tismanu named this Discipline after Vlad Dracul’s mistress, The Mother of Dracula’s half-brother, Vlad the Monk. After giving birth to Vlad Dracul’s illegitimate son, she devoted her life to worship, retreated to a nunnery and changed her name to Eupraxia.
Eupraxia is a supportive and empowering Discipline. Its effects benefit other Kindred, in addition to the Tismanu himself, much as the priests and monks of Wallachia protected and supported the nobility and peasantry alike. Several of Eupraxia’s powers have a darker side as well, but such is the nature of dealing with the souls and wills of cursed and undead monsters.
