You Are Alone

Nightmare

In a sea of humanity, you are an uncharted island. No one even notices that you’re there, and no one will notice when you’re gone. You are doomed, not to die, but never to matter at all.

Dice Pool: Manipulation + Satiety vs. Resolve + Supernatural Tolerance

 Normal: Any attempt the victim makes to interact with other people costs 1 Willpower. Even then, dice pools for any action meant to connect with others suffer a –2 penalty. Prolonged use of this Nightmare (roughly once a day per dot of the target’s Composure) may provoke breaking points or adverse Conditions like Shaken or Spooked.

High Satiety: As long as the Nightmare lasts, basic human interaction (even as simple as meeting the victim’s gaze and asking how he’s doing) counts as soft leverage in Social Maneuvering actions.

Satiety Expenditure: The victim cannot benefit from or participate in teamwork actions. However, being accustomed to relying on himself alone, the victim does not reduce his Defense after being attacked until the third time he’s attacked in a turn.

Exceptional Success: Any failed Social roll on the part of the victim is treated as a dramatic failure.
