Discipline Techniques

Dominate 2, Presence 2

With the truth such a valuable commodity, the ability to find the truth is useful indeed. Passed from mentor to student among the followers of the Road of Kings, this technique renders a subject unable to speak anything except the truth as he knows it; lies cannot pass his lips, nor will his tongue utter them. Of course, subjects may simply choose to remain silent. They are not compelled to speak, but they cannot speak lies.

System: The player rolls Charisma + Leadership with a difficulty equal to the subject's Willpower. The subject must also be of an euql or lesser generation than the character (as with all uses of Dominate). Success places the compulsion upon the subject, with the number of successes determining its duration.

1 SuccessThe subject's next statement must be truthful.
2 SuccessesThe subject must speak the truth for the next minute
3 SuccessesThe subject must speak the truth for the next scene
4 SuccessesThe subject must speak the truth until the next sunrise.
5 SuccessesAs 4 successes, or until the subject leaves the user's presence
