Supernatural Merits & Flaws

5 point Merit

You are meant for great things in your unlife. Destiny has some special purpose in mind for you. This Merit has the following effects:

  • You are considered to have an extra dot of Status when dealing with Cainites who believe in or recognize your destiny as something special.
  • When confronted with a challenge that would keep you from fulfilling your destiny, you can re-roll any failed roll (including botches) and take the better of the two results. You can do this up to three times per story, but only when dealing with circumstances that would prevent you from achieving your destiny in some way (in the Storyteller's judgement).
  • Once per story, when confronted with dire or overwhelming circumstances, you can draw strength from certain knowledge of your destiny and regain a point of Willpower immediately, even if you have no temporary Willpower left.

At the Storyteller's discretion, there may be omens, portents, or prophecies concerning you, and various sorts of divinations may show your involvement in certain events. There may also be forces out to thwart your destiny, and circumstances will tend to conspire to ensure that you have the opportunity to fulfill it, so you will never be able to lead a humble or isolated unlife.
