The Cutting of Strings

Auspex •••, Obfuscate ••

Shadows in the Dark - Mekhet

The Moirai teach the power to hide from the auguries of one another, and from other beings with supernatural powers. The proficient vampire can make it very hard for vampires, magicians or other beings with supernatural powers to use divination techniques to ascertain his past, present or future.

Effect

Dramatic Failure: The vampire tangles himself hopelessly within Fate’s strands. Any divinations made around the character gain a +3 bonus.
Failure: The character makes no difference to the strands of Fate surrounding him, and does not affect any divinations that target or include him.
Success: Any divinations (including the Devotion Manteia, but not the benefits of the first dot in the Moirai Initiation) concerning the character’s past, present or future fates suffer a -1 penalty to dice pools for every success rolled.
Exceptional Success: As for success, but the character instinctively knows when someone else is trying to perform a divination that concerns him in some way.

Manifestation

The character wakens, and looks beyond the world surrounding him. Fate’s threads envelop him and tie him down. He visualizes a spiritual knife, slicing them away, one at a time.
