Presence, the discipline of unnatural attraction and emotional control. This discipline is the ultimate exaltation of the "Power of personality" that many kindred have.
Basic Discipline Levels
• Awe
By focusing the attraction of her own person, the enacting kindred can use this power to make herself stunning and impressive. She literally snares entire groups of people with her actions, making her seem infinitely more attractive.
•• Dread Gaze
The user of this power turns her eyes into her most powerful weapon, turning her very gaze into an emotional weapon of discomfort and fear. By making eye contact, she can even make her target flee from her in absolute horror.
••• Entrancement
Taking the unnatural attraction of Awe and focusing it in a single person, Entrancement allows the kindred to force another to do her bidding; instead of forcing an order, however, the subject of this power does the actions out of unnaturally enforced admiration or even love towards the vampire.
•••• Summon
The vampire's attraction has become so strong, she can literally call to her presence other individuals. If the target is caught in the Summon, she will try to approach the vampire no matter where she is.
••••• Majesty
This power is the pinnacle of physical imposition of presence: The kindred who uses this power becomes a figure of power, love, respect and fear. Her opponents will usually feel unable to attack her, and doing so is always difficult; other people will recognize the vampire as a figure of personal power and command.
