Sadhana

Indian legend tells of a demoness called Puutanaa who kills infants by suckling them with her poisoned milk. Undead sadhus can call upon Puutanaa, but their family connection as fellow demons, to poison a child of their choice. This baleful spell shocks even vampires with its viciousness. Dartyn legend says that a sadhu created the ritual at the behest of a king's junior wife, who wanted to discredit her rival and clear the way for her own child to inherit the throne.
System: The sadhu needs a sympathetic link to the victim, consisting of the child's name and the names of the child's parents. The next milk that the child drinks carries Puutanaa's venom, which always kills. the curse cannot affect anyone after his first adult tooth grows in.
