Illusion of perfection

Milwaukee

This ritual shrouds the caster in the illusion of a nondescript person that blends easily into crowds.

• Ingredients: A plain white mask , vitae from a Kindred with the Discipline of Obfuscate, and a chameleon’s skin.

• Process: The caster performs an hour-long ritual that concludes when they don a featureless white mask and consume a concoction of vitae and lizard skin. A sweat of blood forms under the mask, spreading across the caster’s body until they are coated in a ruby crust that mystically conceals their true identity. The mask itself slowly turns crimson until the ritual wears off.

• System: A successful Ritual test is required to activate this ritual. Upon success, the caster is cloaked in the illusion that they are an ordinary person in their mid-20s, with a nondescript face and average body similar to the Obfuscate ability Mask of a Thousand Faces. The nondescript appearance of this vampire shifts across different faces, seen as different by individuals who can all see the caster. This can of course lead to confusion and alarm. The caster can only see their own reflection in mirrors and photographs. Illusion of Perfection can be pierced by the Auspex ability Sense the Unseen, with a contested Wits + Auspex vs. the successes scored on the ritual roll. Illusion of Perfection lasts one scene, but a Critical Win extends its duration to an entire evening.
