| CLAN TZIMISCE DISCIPLINES
_______________________________________________________________
Disciplines are the
special ablitiys that are inate within a vampires blood
they are used in battle and in everday life. The
following is a list of disciplines for clan
Tzimisce.
_______________________________________________________________
Disciplines: Animalism, Auspex,
Vicissitude
Anamalism
The Beast resides within
all creatures, from lice-ridden rats to powerful Kindred
elders. The Discipline of Animalism allows the
vampire to develop a close, intense connection with his
primordial nature. He not only communicates empathically
with the lower
beasts, but also projects his own force of will upon
them, directing the animals to do his bidding.
Additionally, as the vampire
grows in power, he can use Animalism to control the beast
within mortals and supernaturals.
Auspex
This Discipline bestows uncanny sensory
abilities upon the vampire. While Auspex initially
heightens all of the Kindred's senses
significantly, that is merely the beginning. As she grows
in power, the vampire can perceive the psychic auras that
flow around
her and even project her mind into another being's
thoughts. Furthermore, Auspex can pierce the disguises
that Obfuscate
creates. Such sensory command gives the vampire a
distinct advantage over mortals and even many
supernaturals. Whether
these talents let her view a distant haven, sense the
prince's mood or pluck secrets from a rival Kindred's
ghoul, Auspex is a
powerful tool. Still, the vampire must be careful lest
this heightened sensitivity cause her to be distracted by
beautiful things,
startled by loud noises or overwhelmed by foul smells.
Vicissitude
Vicissitude is the
signature power of the Tzimisce and is almost unknown
outside the clan. Similar in some respects to Protean,
Vicissitude allows the Fiends to shape and sculpt their
own or others' flesh and bone. When a Tzimisce uses
Vicissitude to alter
mortals, ghouls and vampires of higher generation, the
effects of the power are permanent; vampires of equal or
lower
generation may heal the effects of Vicissitude as though
they were aggravated wounds. Naturally, a wielder can
always reshape
her own flesh.
