The ebb and flow of life is obvious all around you. You can feel the pulse of life force with a touch, even sensing the energies of people or Cainites with whom you come in contact. Use of this discipline, and increasing concentration, can allow the Vampire to accumulate some knowledge of the subject...as follows, in order:
1. If the subject is a mortal, Vampire, ghoul or other creature
2. How much total damage (external and internal damage) has been suffered
3. Reveals the amounts of blood in the subject's system
4. Reveals any diseases
Sense Vitality may also be used for medical diagnosis, determining the source of injuries or diseases afflicting a victim. Anything that could be learned with a medical examination - the source of the injury, the wound's severity, the reason behind unnatural mental states or death - can be learned with a touch.
Panacea
By licking a target’s wound, and spending blood, the vampire may heal a level of damage for each blood point spent.
Anesthetic Touch
Pain flees at your caress and a peaceful stillness falls on those under your care. Any voluntary subject touched (other than yourself) can be rendered immune to pain, albeit for a short time. You can also cause mortals to descend into a natural, healing sleep; suffering no nightmares or derangements.
Once a Vampire learns Anesthetic Touch, he or she develops a third eye in the middle of his/her forehead. This eye opens anytime an Obeah power of Anesthetic Touch or higher is used. Cainite scholars speculate that the eye may, in some way, be connected with the mystical (or demonic) insight that grants this Discipline.
Anesthetic Touch has NO effect on Vampires.
Neutral Guard
The vampire may create a protective barrier. No one who is further than ten feet from the vampire may come closer than ten feet away from her.
Corpore Sano / Renewed Vigor
The power of your blood carries healing vitality. Touching the injuries of a subject, you cause them to close and heal immediately.
Mens Sana
Soothing words and supplicating songs calm the mind of your subject, gifting mental peace to the disturbed. Whether by psychological discourse or religious exorcism, your words carry away the worries and problems of disturbed individuals.
Treat the Sick Mind
The vampire may cure a derangement of a target. When the vampire uses this power, her third eye and the target both
glow in gold light.
Pain for Pleasure
The vampire may cancel all of a target’s wound penalties, and this target will feel pleasure instead of pain. This might lead to the target’s self-endangerment, or even self-mutilation.
Repulsion
The vampire may alter her spirit to make others avoid her, without realizing what they are doing. This power draws no attention to the vampire.
Unburdening The Bestial Soul
Perhaps the most incredible power of Obeah, Unburdening the Bestial Soul allows you to lift the terrible stains of the Vampire curse from the soul of a target. You literally take the subject's soul into communication with you own soothing the psychic scars and trauma that afflicts your victim. Though you cannot remove the Curse of Caine from a subject, you can heal the most terrible emotional trauma that weighs down most Vampires. You cannot use Unburdening the Bestial Soul on yourself.
Spirit Marionette
The subject may force a victim to move exactly as she does, and use her disciplines, Talents, Skills, etc, as if the victim also had them. However, with uninterrupted concentration, the Vampiremay be able to move without the victim copying her.
Resurrection
By sacrificing willpower for each hour that the mortal has been dead, the vampire may bring her back to life, but the body must be eighty percent complete to start. The third eye will glow so brightly that it will blind anyone looking directly at it. All parts missing will regenerate. This heavily taxing discipline will certainly drain the Vampire using Resurrection of energy.
