| - Mortitionism Developed by Vincent Mortition, the dicipline is extremely useful but comes at a high cost with potencially lethal affects and unlike most causes the User to enter a torpid state for every dot put into it upon attaining the power. Drawbacks 1 - Upon gaining the Dicipline of Mortitionism the user losses all of their existing diciplines and recovers half of the experience points put into the diciplines that they may relocate, to repurchase preowned Diciplines the cost sets to the same as skill x3 where Mortitionism develops as a bloodline Diciplines x5 2 - User enters torpor for a certain amount of time based on his Humanity, Note that it works differently then one might expect given the nature of Mortitionism and the third Drawback Humanity 10 - 1 year 9 - 6 months 8 - 3 months 7 - 1 month 6 - 2 weeks 5 - 1 week 4 - 3.5 days 3 - 1.75 days 2 - 8 hours 75 minutes 1 - 4 hours 37 minutes This is due to the extremely corrupt and dark nature of the power, infact Kindred blood ( three dots - may not be Users ) and a Kindred must be present as when the Mortitionists Torpid begins the dicipline will consume the kindred blood and other Kindred soul much like Diabliere without the black veins or other signs of Diabliere and naturally the benifits of the act, Note the blood and Kindred must be of two seperate clans then the users also if the Kindred whos blood was used is still alive the Mortitionist may be blood bound and must roll blood potency+Resolve+composure to resist needing 3 successes to resist the effects entirely Note adding more kindred to rob of their souls will grant a bonus dot to the Mortitionists dicipline however three vitae are required per kindred aswell as success rolls to resist blood bounds if any, Note again using a werewolf for the soul of blood will remove risks of blood bound or lower successes needed but will have affects upon the werewolf if still living and affects upon the Users Beast and physical stature. For a none Mortitionist to gain this dicipline they must expend 2 blood potency ( may not go below 4 ) aswell as have vitae of a Mortitionist and the last requirement however the torpid effects will be doubled. If the Mortionist whos blood was used in the ceremony is still alive the subject will instantly be blood bound yet get a free dot in their Mortitionism or 2 if the Mortitionist in question is of another path. 3 - Due to its nature Mortitionism is easily identified as an adaptation of Diciplines within the newly altered Vitae of the User as the blood of the User is torn apart and modified on a genetic level using the souls of the sacificial lambs to impart the " gifts " upon the blood. However as their Vitae is torn apart and rebuilt in such a way the Users bloodpool is drained to half of its current state often leaving the Mortitionist hungry after awakening yet they will discover they no longer gain as much from feeding ( Reduces nourishment gained by 1 and entirely removed the ability of a Mortitionist to feed on animals even if Gangrel ) however the Mortitionists blood pool increases by 1 for each dot in the dicipline. 4 - When Mortitionists awaken they roll half their Blood potency if they fail their eyes now have a swirling glow according to the initial path they take. Blood ( Red ) Spirit ( White ) Mind ( Purple )Shadow ( Black ) Defiance ( Silver ) Tartarus ( Gold ) 5 - Any Frenzy aside from one that is controled requires 10s to resist, one per dicipline dot, also in Frenzy all damage dealt to the Mortitionist is halved ( sunlight not included ) and stakeing the heart of the Mortitionist only results in increasing Mortitionists Physical attributes by 1 per point of damage taken as the Mortitionists heart now pumps a highly corrupted blood through its body that defys the stake continuing to operate the body of the Mortitionist, also if a werewolf is used in the garnering of the dicipline in frenzy Mortitionits gain the immunity to firearms and grow claws like that of the gangrel, enlarged fangs ( 3 lethal damage ) and the same affects as Auspex 1 with all senses equally elevated. 6 - Kindred loses the ability to use his blood to increase his attributes. 7 - All Mortitionists despise to serve or take orders as they seek to rule over others giving them a - 2 dice roll penalty with anyone with higher stature then they, so if they are Sheriff but are speaking with the Prince they suffer the penalty and will maintain the penalty until they are obeyed by someone else. Using a Werewolf in the garnering of the dicipline Doing this increases its attributes of the Kindred equal to the Werewolves form during the event of its soul being taken including the bonus's from being in even the mighty gauru form but also gains the penalties. Kindred gains resistances equal to Werewolves form but also gains one of the werewolves banes if it is in any but its natural form ( storytellers choice ). Kindreds speed increases by five however other Kindred will feel the same sensation in the Mortitionists precence as in that of a Werewolves. Kindred may gain one of the werewolves gifts per each level it takes in the path of Tartarus. Using a Strix Never been done before but it would only result in a controlled possession where the Strix battles for freedom stuck in a dark abyss in the Kindred minds Kindred also gains acess to the Strixs power but must expend twice vitae equal to the shadow potency requirement to use the strixs powers. Note: Only Kindred may develop this Dicipline attempting to do so for any other creature results in instant death or embrace as a " Catiff " equivilent. Only able to raise their blood potency to 5, only able to use common diciplines regardless of circumstances unable to use 2 of their blood pool leaving only 8 to use diciplines or healing initially. Must use twice as much vitae and willpower to create ghouls or embrace. Never able to raise Humanity beyond 5.
