Undiminished Rage
Animalism •••••, Protean •
Renowned for their bravery even in the face of vampiric banes, Rötgrafen warriors have developed the ability to reverse the rise of panic within themselves and redirect it, surprising the wielders of fire by turning upon them in apparent ignorance of the threat they face.
Effect
Any time a vampire with this power faces provocation that would normally lead to Rötschreck, he may attempt to invoke this power. The roll to activate Undiminished Rage occurs instead of the frenzy resistance roll.
Side/Secondary Effects
Dramatic Failure: Not only does the power fail to take hold, resulting in an immediate fear frenzy, but the vampire is so completely shaken by the experience that he is unable to use this power again for the duration of the chapter.
Failure: The vampire exerts his will, but does not alter the nature of his oncoming frenzy. He may attempt to resist it as normal.
Success: The vampire is provoked by the source of the frenzy, but he is moved to rage instead of fear. He may Ride the Wave as normal, or may simply attack the source of his frenzy.
Exceptional Success: Not only does the vampire enter a rage frenzy instead of fleeing uncontrollably, but he is already considered to be Riding the Wave, and need not spend another Willpower point to impose limits on his frenzy.
