MET LARP SRD

The bonds between sire and childe are imprinted on the vitae of future generations. By taking a point of Blood from a target vampire, dropping it into a bubbling cauldron, and chanting over it, the caster sees the faces and names of the generations of vampires that preceded the target vampire starting with the subject’s sire.

You must possess a point of the subject’s vitae which you slowly pour into a cast-iron cauldron that is bubbling over with distilled water. The ritual takes 3 hours to complete during which you must remain in a deep trance. Afterwards, you gain knowledge of the subject’s lineage going back 3 generations (i.e., her sire, grandsire, and great-grandsire) as their images appear in the water of the cauldron along with their most recognized name. With this information, it is possible that you can determine the subject’s clan, though doing so may require a Lore Specialization at the Storyteller’s discretion if the members of the subject's lineage are not sufficiently well known. This ritual does not reveal the potency of generation or diablerie unless you know for certain the generation of the target’s forebears. This ritual does not grant familiarity with the target or her predecessors.
