Sanguinus

Name:	Sanguinus
Pronunciation:
Bloodlines:	Blood Brothers

Sanguinus is the Discipline of the Blood Brothers, which grants members of the bloodline their bizarre ability to share and exchange their mind and body parts with those in their family circle.

Overview

A curious relative of Vicissitude, Sanguinus allows vampires who practice it to combine parts of their bodies, loan them out to others and coordinate their minds and appendages.

Even low levels of it are unsettling (at best) to watch. Use of the higher levels is disgusting, indeed, as flesh parts and exposed organs, atrophied by the Blood Brothers' state of undeath, merge and pulse. Mortals observing the spectacle of this Discipline's more obvious powers must make Courage rolls (difficulty 4), spend a point of Willpower or flee the area in nausea.
