This ritual allows the caster to bypass the black veins in a vampires’ aura that appear when the amaranth is performed.  Used properly, this ritual will mask the telltale diablerie lines in the casters aura.  It must be cast prior to the diablerie.<br>

'''System''': The caster of cloaking the stain dips a fresh amaranth flower in a solution of oil and vinegar for 15 minutes before slowly roasting the basted flower over a slow fire of hardwood.  Once the flower has been completely carbonized by the fire, the caster powders the blackened flower and evenly sprinkles the powder upon a small pat of butter floating in a cup of blood.  The caster rolls willpower difficulty 6 to consume the concoction.<br>
 
The diablerie must take place within 1 hour of the rituals completion.  During this hour, other rituals for the preparation may be cast.  If the ritual is successful, the telltale black veins that would normally accompany diablerie are masked, requiring five or more successes reading the diablerist's aura to detect that something is hidden.
The shadows come to you even when you do not call them, wrapping themselves around you like a cloak in constant motion.  This makes you stand out in any crowd, and you can no longer pass for "normal" even when you so wish.  Other Cainites may well avoid your company, being discomfited by your strange affliction.  Lasombra in particular find you unpleasant company (+ 2 difficulty on all Social rolls) because your inability to master your shadows demonstrates a failure of will on your part.

Supernatural Merits & Flaws

4 point Flaw

The shadows come to you even when you do not call them, wrapping themselves around you like a cloak in constant motion. This makes you stand out in any crowd, and you can no longer pass for "normal" even when you so wish. Other Cainites may well avoid your company, being discomfited by your strange affliction. Lasombra in particular find you unpleasant company (+ 2 difficulty on all Social rolls) because your inability to master your shadows demonstrates a failure of will on your part.

This Flaw was published in the Lasombra handbook, and assumes that the character possesses the first rank of Obtenebration.
