Auguring the Sickness
This power was lost to history when Clan Salubri was nearly wiped out by the Tremere. In the modern era, it is known only to a tiny handful of recently awakened elders.
Another diagnostic tool in the hands of the Salubri, this power allows a Healer to discover both the severity and nature of the sickness plaguing her patient, although it offers no information about the cure. Knowledge of Auguring the Sickness is believed to date back after Saulot's return from the East, leading to speculation that this is a power found among Eastern healers (and possibly vampires).
System: The Salubri lets her hands hover an inch or so above the body of her patient and traces a path from head to foot, concentrating as she does. The player rolls Perception + Medicine (difficulty 7). Each success allows the player one detail or symptom about the illness, such as its kind, what the likely symptoms and developments are, and so on. Those who have activated Heightened Senses before performing the augury can often sense extra heat in the area of the sickness.
