Skin of the Chameleon

Level 1
1 Blood

Visceratika • Level 1

When you activate this power, you naturally blend in with your surroundings. While not invisible, you become less noticeable, and those around you simply don’t tend to pay attention to you, even though they realize you are there.

Cost

1 Blood

Focus

Perception

Your Skin of the Chameleon works on supernatural creatures, such as vampires, as well as mortals. Supernatural creatures who encounter you can make an opposed challenge using their Mental attribute + Willpower versus your Mental attribute + Stealth. Characters with Auspex receive a bonus to this test equal to the number of Auspex powers they possess. Elder powers count towards this bonus, but techniques do not.

System

Expend 1 Blood and use a simple action to activate Skin of the Chameleon for one hour. You must be currently unobserved by mortals in order to activate Skin of the Chameleon. Thereafter, so long as you draw no attention to yourself, mortals will assume that you are an expected and legitimate part of their surroundings. They assume you have an authentic reason to be there, and they will not question your presence. If asked afterwards, they will describe you in generalities. Even if your appearance is particularly bestial or horrific, like a Gargoyle or a Nosferatu appears, so long as you take simple steps to avoid attention, such as wearing a hat or turning up collar, and do nothing to make people notice you, mortals in your area will ignore you.

You can interact with mortals while under the effect of this power, so long as you do not startle them or give them any reason to scrutinize your appearance. After such a conversation, the mortal will only remember you as a bland-seeming individual with the proper credentials to be present and very little more. If you use another power, threaten, or attack anyone, or otherwise draw attention to yourself, this power immediately ends.

Skin of the Chameleon fails if you attempt to enter a private location. This power might allow you to wander through a crime scene, but it cannot be used to enter a top secret laboratory or walk unnoticed into someone’s home.
