Court of Hallowed Truth
Back to Level 5.
Although this ritual was developed to be used in Tremere tribunals, recent nights have seen princes call up on Tremere to use it within their political halls in exchange for favors. Unbiased testimony and blatant truth become standard within the court, and many connivers and liars have betrayed their own plans with their unwittingly veracious words. A pair of crossed bones must be laid before every entry to the room, including windows.
System: The magic weaves its spell upon one room, and all within abide by the truth-telling edict it creates. No falsehood may be spoken, and direct questions from the presiding judge or power are answered candidly with no omissions or deceit. The magic persists within the room for the length of one full month. Several princes have come to rely on this, much to their undoing, as either the prince becomes preposterously indebted to the Tremere or other Kindred reset his heavy-handed tactics and refuse to attend meetings. This power invariably erodes the power of princes who rely on it, though some are too short-sighted to understand it.
