Character Creation -x- Abilities -x- Secondary Abilities

Description: You can enter a trance-like state that allows you to leap through flames. This Skill is vital in the Fire Dance and other ritae. Demonstrating this Skill often equates to being a powerful and dominant member of the pack. This Skill does not grant any immunity from the fire, but it does allow the vampire to avoid being burned or succumbing to a frenzy. This Skill cannot be part of a split dice pool: The user must concentrate on Fire Dancing and nothing else. When the vampire tries to Fire Dance, damage should be rolled normally, but for every success with this Skill, reduce the amount of damage done by one health level. Few vampires outside the Sabbat have this Skill.

Note: Unless the fire is actually a bonfire meant for the ritual dance, you do not suffer Rötschreck any less frequently than any other vampire.

Possessed by: Mystics, Performers, Primitive Tribesmen, Sabbat.

Specialties: Acrobatics, Distance, Leaping, Looking Tough.

Dots Description
1 You make the necessary leaps to prove that you're not a coward. You usually wait until the fire has died down quite a bit before you leap though.
2 You no longer feel that "Oh, shit," panic when you jump.
3 You are usually the first to jump, for you do not fear the flames. You live by the motto, "Build it higher, jump the fire!"
4 Expert: An acrobat in the flames, you command a prowess and fearlessness that serves as inspiration to all who observe you.
5 A legend among the Sabbat, your moves are simultaneously unholy and magnificent.
