Description: You were reborn under especially auspicious -— or baleful' — stars. Particularly in the Quincunx, such omens are taken very seriously; newly reborn vampires often undergo extensive astrological analyses, courtesy of their adoptive families. Some vampires even have their astrological signs or data tattooed on their bodies.
Once per story, you may roll a number of dice equal to yout Horoscope rating. For each result that corresponds to either your Dharma's or your direction's "lucky number" (North 6, West 9, Center 5, East 8, South 7; Devil-Tiger 2, Resplendent Crane 1, Shadow Song 4, Thrashing Dragon 3, Thousand Whispers 0), you gain one extra and automatic success on an action attempted next turn.
In less concrete terms, a vampire's Horoscope rating often serves as a rough indicator of destiny. Vampires with high Horoscope ratings occasionally find themselves beneficiaries (or victims) of odd coincidences, dei ex machina, and other strangeness, which can provide ideal story hooks.
