Koldunism Level 3

A koldun casting this ritual may destroy inanimate objects by severing their spirits from their material shells. By severing an object's spirit, objects like stone pillars turn to chalk and dust, cell phones malfunction and break into a small pile of wire and plastic, and clothing frays to become tatters of cotton and leather.

System: By expending the appropriate number of blood points, a koldun may rend a spirit from its inanimate housing, permanently. He may do so to any object within his line of sight.

The number of successes the player achieves determines the degree of the koldun's success and the size of the object he may destroy.

1 success: A fountain pen
2 successes: A cell phone
3 successes: A television
4 successes: A sofa
5 successes: A small car

Rumors of elder koldun using this power to great effect persist, especially among young Tzimisce, practically becoming legends in the telling. One such legend involves a Fiend reducing a rival's very haven to brittle shale, while another suggests that a jealous Tzimisce transformed a scorned lover into a pillar of salt before she could turn against him. None of these tales have been substantiated, however.
