John had found himself in possession of the enigmatic Scar of Eanna, its origin shrouded in the deepest obscurity. A profound and unbreakable bond ensued as he connected with this artifact, to the point where he became inseparably fused with it. This remarkable connection, over time, seamlessly integrated the Scar into his very chest, resulting in an extraordinary transformation. What once appeared to be a peculiar metallic imprint bore an uncanny resemblance to an intricate and otherworldly tattoo. To a casual observer, John might have struck an impression as a devoted adherent to some mystical faith. However, upon closer scrutiny, the observer would experience a profound and unsettling sensation, akin to encountering an enigma that defied conventional explanation.
The necklace/scar exerts a profound influence on John's mind. Whenever he can't unequivocally confirm its presence, a potent cocktail of panic and fear engulfs him. This goes beyond the mere sensation of its weight against his chest. If he can't currently see its luminous metallic luster, feel the warmth radiating through his hand, observe the subtle yet undeniable impact it has on those nearby, or hear the faint sizzle of its utilization, he finds himself ensnared in a paralyzing web of uncertainty. It's akin to a Schrödinger's Cat scenario, teetering on the brink of existential dread, desperately gasping for confirmation through every available sense. Without this validation, he experiences an inner decay, his very being slowly withering.
You gain the following benefits as long as you have your Eanna's Cross. The Eanna's Cross is burned into his chest. It is a metal chunk (originally a necklace) that he welded and attached to his chest.

The Vampire is able to turn one of their victims into a lesser vampire, a pale shadow of a full creature of the night but useful nonetheless. Having drained and killed their target, the Vampire performs a brief ritualistic bloodletting, wherein they spill their own blood into the target's mouth, forcing them to drink, and bonding them together as child and sire.
