Telepathic Network

Auspex ••••, Obfuscate •••

Vampire the Requiem - Ancient Bloodlines

Experienced Freedmen are capable of creating a mental network of telepathic communication between groups of Kindred. Once the network has been opened, any Kindred affected by Telepathic Network can send out a silent, mental message to the entire group such as, “I am being attacked, come help me!” or, “I’m currently breaking into the back of the building. Where are the rest of you?” This Devotion cannot be used on an unwilling or unaware subject.

Effect

Upon activation, Telepathic Network creates a temporary telepathic bond between multiple willing Kindred. The number of vampires that can be included within the network is equal to the number of successes obtained during the activation roll. Kindred within the network may send out a mental message to the entire group, but may not send out a private message to a specific individual. The network is unaffected by distance once activated (although all vampires who wish to be a part of the network must be present for activation). Telepathic Network lasts for the duration of a scene, unless the character responsible for activating the Devotion chooses to end it earlier.
Additionally, Telepathic Network masks the Beasts of those within the network from the Predator’s Taint. While those within the network still instinctively know other vampires by sight, vampires outside of the group will not recognize those within for the monsters they are. A vampire connected through Telepathic Network appears mortal to other Kindred, unless the outsider picks up on other tells (such as a murky reflection in a mirror), or the linked Kindred chooses to reveal his true nature.
