Iron Hand

By Bags357@aol.com

Description

This Discipline was developed by an elder Caitiff named Alexander Maddox. As a master of martial arts he had long known the myth of Den Mak was a faerie tale for hopeful children in training. This is his answer to those myths. The power's effects are devastating.

* Student

At the beginning level, the character has hardened his body for combat purposes.

System: Character gains one addition dice to soak and damage rolls.

** Apprentice

With this power the bones have become rock hard.

System: Gain an automatic success in soak and damage rolls.

*** Master

At this point the character has achieved a major understanding of the Iron Hand arts. He has even gained a minor imitation of the fabled "touch of death."

System: Spend 1 blood to activate. The character gains 3 additional damage dice.

**** Teacher

At this point the character may begin to teach the rudiments of Iron Hand but not before. The hands are deadly weapons capable of inflicting horrible wounds as they punch through the flesh of an opponent.

System: Spend 1 blood that coats the fingers and cause Str+4 damage aggravated. If successful, the hit leaves a puncture wound.

***** Grand Master

This is the pinnacle of the martial art. The character gains the ability to change aggravated wounds into normal ones.

System: Roll Stamina at difficulty 6. Each success changes one Aggravated wound level to normal.

****** Legendary

The culmination of the Iron Hand power. This level allows for the utter annhilation of organs.

System: An attack roll is required and the expenditure of a Willpower point. The user makes an organ explode inside the body of the victim causing 4 none-soakable aggravated wounds. This wound can only be healed naturally through rest.
