Song of the Fifth Trumpet
The demonic powers of the Baali are despised by all vampires. To humanity, they are proof that heaven and hell exist; a revelation that most humans are incapable of processing. Whenever you use a Daimonion power in front of mortals, the observers assume you are a lesser figure associated with Hell or the equivalent afterlife from their chosen faith. As a result, mortal witnesses are scared out of their mind and enter into a catatonic state. Afterwards they refuse to talk about what happened and are unable to recall specifics of the event. In the case of secular or atheistic witnesses, they refuse to acknowledge what they saw as anything more than an elaborate hoax thereby preserving the Masquerade.
In addition, while in the presence of anyone who has made an infernal pact, a deal with the devil, or even an unfulfilled promise to dark and hidden entities, you hear a soft and ominous harmony. While you do not know the specifics of this deal, you know that the person or persons have, or are likely willing, to be aided by the infernal. Consult your Storyteller prior to the game to be notified of any characters present who are infernal. In addition, your Storyteller will notify you if during play you encounter an NPC who is or may be willing to enter into an infernal arrangement.
This merit, if used against the clan’s interests, can expose infernalists; however, although some backstabbing or blackmail is expected among the Baali, those who defect or who flagrantly expose others in ways that do not advance the clan’s interests are deemed traitors to the Baali. The Storyteller, playing the part of Hell, will adjudicate if a demonic response is warranted. In addition to any retribution imposed by the Storyteller, an offending character shall lose this merit and shall not receive an XP refund.
