Dementation

Passion The Vampire may stir his victim's emotions, either heightening them to a fevered pitch or blunting them until their target is completely desensitized. The Cainite may not choose which emotion is affected; but merely amplify or dull emotions already present in the target. In this way, a Vampire can turn a mild irritation into a frothing rage or dull true love into casual interest.

The Haunting The Vampire may stir the sensory centers of the victim's brain, flooding the victim's senses with visions, sounds, scents or feelings that aren't even really there. The images, regardless of the sense to which they appeal, are only "fleeting glimpses", barely perceptible to the victim. The Vampire using this discipline cannot control what the victim perceives, but may choose which sense is affected.

Eyes of Chaos This peculiar power allows the Vampire to take advantage of the fractured wisdom hidden in insanity. The Vampire may scrutinize the "patterns" of a person's soul, the convolutions of a Vampire's "inner nature" or even random events in nature itself. The Vampire with this discipline can discern the most well-hidden psychoses, or gain insight into a person's true self.

Voice of Madness Simply by speaking aloud to your victims, you can reduce them to howling fear or anger. You address your targets in a reasonable tone, encouraging then to succumb to their own inner demons. Those terrors then come to the fore, driving your victim to blind, uncontrolled panic. Mortal affected in this manner instantly flee in terror.

Total Insanity Madness lies around the nearest corner of everyone's mind. Pulling insanity from the recesses of your victim's deepest memories and beliefs, you cause the hapless victim to succumb to a wash of overpowering lunacy. You may evoke this discipline after gaining your victim's total attention for a short time.
