NUMINA: | Psychic Vampire They psychic literally drains away emotion from his victims or in some cases actual living energies, converting them into energies for himself. The psychics often become addicted to the sensations, feeling a rush from the draw as well as desiring the extra energy. Roll: Manipulation + Empathy • Rush The psychic vampire feeds off strong emotions. The emotions can be positive (joy, happiness, or love) or negative (fear, hatred, greed), though the vampire tends to find it easier to generate negative emotions. The vampire rolls Manipulation + Empathy diff 6 to ‘feed’ off the emotions. This provides no concrete benefit to the vampire, though it porivdes a rush of power. Depending on the nature of the character, this may allow him to recover lost willpower though it is recommended that the player score at least 3 successes on the roll for that to occur. The psychic must be close to the target (within 10 yard) and able to sense her to feed. The target may feel unsettled by the process, as the effect tends to mute her emotions. However, it does not remove the emotion itself and could not be used, for instance, to calm down an angry person. The vampire can use this ability to monitor the emotions of the subject, though he doesn’t have an accurate gauge of the subjects emotions until he starts the drain. •• Sapping the Will The drain effect sharpens here. The vampire’s leeching of life energy saps the will of the target while invigorating his own will. The psychic rolls Manipulation + Empathy (diff targets current willpower) and the target rolls a reflexive willpower roll (diff 6). If the psychic succeeds, he drains one point of temporary willpower from the target and adds it to his own store of temporary willpower. The extra willpower can exceed the psychic’s normal maximum willpower (up to 10 total temporary willpower). While the character has more than normal willpower he feels invigorated, akin to a drug high. The excess willpower fades at a rate of one point per hour. This talent can be used at a range of up to 10 yards. ••• Energy Transfer The vampire’s ability to leech life energy now allows him to invigorate himself and to heal minor injuries with stolen life force. This requires the vampire to touch the subject for a turn. The psychic’s player then rolls Manipulation + Empathy (diff 7). Each success causes a level of bashing damage to the target and heals a level of bashing damage that the psychic has taken. If the psychic is fully healed when this occurs, each bashing level absorbed restores 2 points of willpower. The subject does get a soak roll, and soaked levels of damage do not benefit the psychic. •••• Life Leech This dangerous talent allows the psychic to leech away vital life energies from the target healing any damage the psychic may have taken and giving an emotional high without compare. The psychic must maintain physical contact with the target for one turn per damage level absorbed and then rolls Manipulation + Empathy (diff 8) . Each success does one level of lethal damage to the subject. This will heal one level of damage (bashing or lethal) or turn one level of aggravated damage into lethal damage. If the character is fully healed when he leeches life energy, each damage level absorbed provided the character with 3 points of willpower. |

DESCRIPTION: | Standing 5'6, Nicola is a dark haired beauty carries herself with a natural aura of power and control. Some say, you can always spot a cop in the crowd. Long blackish hair, peircing blue eyes, this olive skined woman as a stony coolness in her demeanor that can be quite disconcerning. Her lean, well toned form reflects she has taken good care of her body, at least for a time. When not in uniform, of a business casual pantsuit, she can be found in faded jeans and black metal band tee shirts. |
BACKGROUND: | "Lieutenant Douglas, why have you resigned from the LCPD? Is it true you are being brought up on drug charges?" one of the reporters screams, as Nicola exits the Lamar Police Station for the last time. "No comment." is all she offers, carrying the last of her personal belongings to her black Audi rs5. I was married to my job. My father was a cop, his father was a cop. It was only right that I followed their footsteps. The youngest woman in LCPD history to make detective. I was on the fast track, promotions, good press. They made me the poster child for the local police. There as always this feeling, I had in the back of my head, that someone was looking out for me. Helping grease some palms to get me up in the ranks. By the time I made Lieutenant, I was top of the world. Then I met Gavreth. I had no idea what I was, what a kinfolk was, that Garou existed. I get called in to check on a local celebrity that finds himself in the hospital. The guy is a complete ass to me the entire time I am interviewing him. But there was something about him, that I just couldnt put my nose on. Something that kept me intirely too focused on him. I am sure he knew what I was, but he kept it a secret. It wasnt til a week later that I went back for a secondary interview, that my entire life changed. This world that he opened up around me, still blows my mind. But it became too much, the balance of doing my job and cutting corners to keep him safe. He also came with an amount of personal baggage that no woman should have to deal with. But I had fallen... hard. I am not even sure when the drugs came into play. Somewhere along the line, I decided I needed to be on the same playing field he was. The changes in my personal life, took the focus off my career, fast. And I got to stand back and watch my card house simply tumble around me. IA tells me it was a paid informant, that tipped them off to me, maybe we got a hook up from the wrong source. But it didnt matter, they would either bring up charges against me, or I would resign, affective immediately and take a severance. This is the price I paid, to keep the story from going full out to the press. And I took it. In my hometown, I found myself blackballed. And just as it affected me and my life, it started to take a toll on Gavreth. His gigs were cancelled, he couldnt find sponsers for his tours. It was a hard decision, but we both decided it was time to go. He needs to be near other Garou, and I need a clean slate. So here we are. In Washington. Whatcom County Sheriffs Department. They were estatic when I sent them my resume. It was a drop in pay, and alot more ground to cover, but more quiet. This job will allow me to figure out my job as a kinfolk, as well as keep my need to work pacified. Lets see what happens now. |
