Sting

Dominate ••, Animalism ••

Vampire the Requiem - Bloodlines the Legendary

With a brush of her lips, or a kiss or a lick, a Queen Bee stings her victim, causing him to experience a brief epiphany of pain so intense he’s unable to do anything other than writhe and gasp.

Effect

To activate this power, a Melissid must first be in a position in which she can touch her victim with her mouth. (If the victim doesn’t want to be touched, this may require a roll — see “Touching an Opponent” on p. 157 of the World of Darkness Rulebook.)
Successful activation of the power causes the victim to be unable to take any action, even to speak or scream, for a number of rounds equal to the number of successes the Queen Bee gathers.
