2 point Flaw
Just as the First Murderer was marked and made outcast from the race of Man, so too have you been branded with the taint of your murderous nature. While some Prodigals are capable of blending in among mortals with such facility as to render them undetectable for what they are to all but the most refined Cainite senses, you have been forever set apart with a mark that none can see, but all know to be stamped into your soul. Your Aura modifier becomes an absolute value (disregarding pluses or minuses), to which you add +1 (see chart, below). All of these values then become difficulty penalties to interactions in which you try to assert your normalcy (replacing the Aura modifier that would otherwise apply to your Road and rating). Yes, this means that an exceptionally high Road rating makes you seem just as bizarre and alien as a very low one; the most you try to deny the mark of Cain and act as the kine do, the more you are punished and set apart for your presumption. You may not take any other Merits or Flaws that modify or rely upon your Road rating or Aura modifier.
