This Awful Grip

Nightmare •, Vigor ••

The Beast That Haunts the Blood - Nosferatu
The Nosferatu’s gripping hand becomes something out of a dream: fierce, unyielding, able to crush a doorknob or snap a knife’s blade in half.

Effect

During an attack on an object, the Nosferatu may now ignore as much of the item’s Durability as equals the character’s Blood Potency score. If the character’s Blood Potency is 1 and she’s trying to punch down a steel door whose Durability is 3, the item’s Durability is now 2, instead. If her Blood Potency is 3 and she’s trying to bend an aluminum bat whose Durability is 2, she can ignore all that item’s Durability and do damage directly to its Structure.
Because this works on objects, the Devotion can be made to work against a victim’s armor, as well. Her Blood Potency then equals how many points of armor her attack can ignore instead of Durability.
This Devotion only works on attacks made using the Nosferatu’s bare hands. It doesn’t affect grappling rolls.
