Infusion of Earth
Gargoyles are inherently connected to the earth, and the Tremere have taken advantage of this. This ritual requires the Gargoyle to ingest powdered mortar mixed with the Tremere's vitae. The ritual is somewhat unpredictable and can take several hours of continuous chanting and concentration by the Tremere.
System: A Gargoyle must be of at least ninth generation to absorb the effects of this ritual successfully. The Tremere must roll Stamina + Occult once per our of the ritual. The Tremere must accumulate a total of 10 successes without botching (a roll with no successes but no botches does not end the ritual) and before sunrise for the ritual to succeed. If successful, the Gargoyle may meld with earth (per the Protean Discipline Interred in Earth) by the simple expenditure of a Blood Point. The Gargoyle may also meld into stone or rock with equal ease. Anybody who searches the place where a Gargoyle has melded with the earth may, on a roll of Perception + Alertness versus difficulty 8, notice the vague outline of the Gargoyle, as the creature does not completely merge with the stone or dirt. this ritual lasts until the next solstice or equinox.
(This is one of the pre-Visceretika Gargoyle rituals)
