Glare of Lies
Auspex 2, Valeren 1
Upon activating this power, a Salubri’s third eye opens and narrows in close scrutiny. The Cainite gains the ability to see the harmony of truth and the disharmony of deception. It is virtually impossible to lie surreptitiously to a vampire who knows this Discipline.
System: The player rolls Perception + Empathy (difficulty 6). Players of any characters wishing to tell a deliberate lie in sight of the Cainite must gain more successes than the vampire’s player on a Manipulation + Subterfuge roll (difficulty 8). Anyone who fails to meet this requirement may still lie, but the Salubri recognizes the deception. This power cannot sense subtler deceptions by omission or half-truth. As long as those scrutinized tell the truth — however partial or deliberately obtuse — the power detects no falsehood.
Experience Cost: 14
