Nekros, Level 2 Ritual
Reference: Suspire.org
Description
During a turn of incantation, the vampire spits blackened and sickly greenish vitae after biting her own tongue in the direction of another vampire or ghoul within his range. The vitae sprayed must touch the other individual for the ritual to work.
System
The character has a range of the acerbic force spray of the ritual equal to 2 yards per level of Strength (a character with Strength 2 would therefore have a 4 yard range). Treat the incantation as one action - that is, the vampire creating the spittle casts the ritual, which on success creates an amount of "spit" that can be used equal to the level of Nekros the caster has.
The actual spitting of which is a Strength + Athletics action, and a character’s defense rating applies if the victim wishes to attempt to “dodge” the spit vitae; firearms armor also applies if applicable. If the magic/vitae hits the intended target each success gained on the ritual roll causes one point’s worth of vitae to rot into inert and unusable sludge within the body. To a ghoul this causes lethal damage equal to the amount of blood lost, but to a vampire this damage is bashing.
A ghoul slain or a vampire torpored with this power assumes a terrible visage; every vein bulges from the flesh and darkens as if the inner body of the victim were suffering from rot.
This ritual has no effect on mortals or other supernatural beings as they have no vitae.
Spittle created by this ritual only lasts a number of turns gained on the ritual roll.
