Stalk Through The Night "He found himself in utter darkness: the sound, however, guided him. He was apparently unperceived; for, though he called, still the sounds continued, and no notice was taken of him."― John William Polidori, The Vampyre; a Tale
The Vampyre's natural affinity for the shadows allows him to effortlessly stalk through the darkness. He is incredibly difficult to see or hear, until he leaps out from the shadows, knife drawn and teeth bared.
You gain the following benefits as long as you are in shadows or darkness.
You and any clothes or equipment you are wearing are partially obscured from sight. All attempts to detect you using sight are rolled at a -3 dice penalty, and all attempts to detect you where sight would assist are rolled at -1 penalty.
Entering Combat or being Injured will end the Effect. When the Effect ends, it is disabled for 1 hour.
- GMs should use their discretion when determining the exact impacts of this Effect, particularly in conjunction with environmental factors. Standing still against a complex background may render you impossible to detect, and footprints in snow may make it easy. A chance to detect you is not guaranteed.
