Blood Allergy

Level 3.

Reminded of their lost mortality, of illness and unhappiness, Kindred suffering form an allergy of the blood cannot keep vitae within their bodies. Attempts to hold down any blood after ingesting this unlife-sustaining fluid will result in moments of severe nausea followed by episodes of vomit-induced heaves that only abate when all of the blood is expelled from the system. After spilling his blood onto the dead petals of a read rose, a magus may infect a target with this allergy.

System: This ritual requires only 10 minutes of preparation before casting, during which a thaumaturge must spend a blood point and mingle it with dead rose petals. A target suffering a blood allergy is affected for one night per success scored by the caster. Victims are unable to keep blood within their bodies, and, therefore, unable to do much that concerns their vampiric powers. Vampires will not expunge blood if they have three or less blood points remaining, and this power does not work on Kindred older than the caster. While the loss of blood is not enough to cause a Kindred to enter torpor, he will be on the threshold of hunger, and may need to roll for frenzy if he encounters blood.
