Requisite Disciplines: Celerity 2, Protean 5 or Obtenebration 5, or Serpentis 5
Description: Instantaneous Transformation allows a character to undergo a shifting of shape (either Tenebrous Form, Shape of the Beast or Mist Form) in a single turn for the normal expenditure of blood.
System: The character must roll Stamina + Survival (difficulty 7) and spend the normal cost associated with the shift (one blood point for Shape of the Beast or Mist Form, three for Tenebrous Form). If the roll is successful, the change takes only a single turn, rather than the three normally demanded. Failure indicates that the shift takes the standard three turns, and a botch means that the blood was spent but the power does not take effect.
If the character wishes to use this power for both Obtenebration and Protean, she must buy it twice, once for each Discipline. This power could conceivably be purchased with other shapeshifting Disciplines (such as Serpentis) at the Storyteller's prerogative.
Experience Cost: 35
Those who wish to transform into those shapes in one turn can already do so as per DA2, thus this discipline technique is redundant, unless the text were changed to say "a single action" instead of "a single turn. Additionally, lets make the power make sense in terms of cost, so its really Celerity 3 + Protean 5 or Obtenebration 5, or Serpentis 5 or Vicissitude 5, etc." -- Bruce (02/07/2014)
