Physical Merits & Flaws

2 or 4 point Flaw

You constantly seep blood from phantom wounds; even though your flesh remains unbroken, you bleed. The bleeding is fairly slight, but is incessant, costing you an extra blood point each evening (marked off just before dawn). If you bleed from visible locations (such as the palms, a common place for stigmata), you are at a +1 difficulty to all Social rolls, although certain vampires will probably take your reputation as a seer more seriously.
The 4-point version of this Flaw indicates that you bleed from your eye sockets; this obviously makes it almost impossible to travel within human society unveiled, and very much disturbs other Cainites (the difficulty of all Social rolls is increased by +2 rather than +1). In addition, the constant bleeding interferes with your vision, adding one to the difficulty of all visual Perception rolls.
