Kaitlin's Spell Book

This allows the vampire to create changes to herself, that if clan are passed along to their childer. Be it clan discipline, clan advantages/flaws, or advantages, flaws

  • Currently researched, Assamite Warrior to Zaherian Bloodline (Celerity, Obfuscate, Thaumaturgy, Quietus - Flaw- Always Hungry, Rolls to resist Hunger +1 Diff)

Note: Despite constant reminders from both me and Bruce as storytellers, Kaitlin refused to acknowledge the limitations placed on this ritual at the time of its creation. It is capable of transforming an Assmite Warrior to an Assmite of the new "Zahiran" bloodline ONLY. There are no other "researchable" options. It cannot alter flaws. It CAN alter others aside from the caster, though it was never used this way. Since this ritual will never likely be used again, I won't try to recreate the elaborate and extensive system and casting that was composed when the ritual was created. -Jamie


Zahiran Assamites have the clan disciplines of Celerity, Quietus and Sorcery. The do NOT have a fourth clan discipline by default. The change is permanent, and passes to any fledglings sired by the affected Assamite after the change is made (but does not retroactively alter the bloodline of previously made childer).

In addition to the standard darkening of the skin over time, Zahiran Assamites clan flaw is that their beast is constantly hungry: They roll self control or instinct against frenzy whenever presented with the sight, smell or taste of blood at a +2 difficulty, no matter how sated they may be in truth. In addition, they are affected by the Bali curse (and thus prone to addiction to kindred Vitae) as are other non-Warrior Assamite bloodlines.

As an aside, this flaw relates to the fact that all of their disciplines require great blood expenditure, so they can never be truly sure that they have enough Vitae.
