The Abyss is a source of knowledge that can only be gained through the understanding that stems from suffering. You have learned how to pull answers from the darkness through your own pain.

Spend an hour in total darkness while flogging yourself enough to make your back bleed one point of Blood and causing 1 point of unsoakable normal damage. Afterwards, use this blood to write a question for the Abyss. The Abyss will use the remaining blood to write an answer to your question. The question you pose must be about a general subject as the Abyss does not possess the knowledge to reveal personal secrets or specific details about another player character. For example, you could ask “is there a True Brujah in Fresno County?”, but you cannot ask “who is a True Brujah in Fresno County?’ The Storyteller will determine the limits of the Abyss’s knowledge, if any.
