Holden: Whoa. Did my face just change?
Buffy: Yeah. You look human now. You can do that. Go back and forth.
Holden: Oh, so I'm a vampire. [laughs] How weird is that?

Spawn Minions

created by ExampleRobot.
Description
The Vampire is able to turn a dying human into a lesser vampire, a pale shadow of a full creature of the night but useful nonetheless. They must allow the dying human to drink their blood, uninterrupted, for roughly 10 seconds, and the person will be reanimated as a shambling, unintelligent thrall.
System
Spend three Actions allowing a dead but not dying human to drink your own blood, and Exert your Body. If nothing interrupts this, they will be transformed into your thrall. You may have [[maximum-minions]] active at a time. The minion lasts until it is killed, has dog-level intelligence, and cannot communicate back to you.
Minions have the following stats. You have 7 times 2 points to distribute between the following:
Health levels, Movement dice, Attack dice, and alertness all of which have a maximum of 6.
Health: 6
Movement/dodge: 2
Attack (difficulty 6): 6
Alertness: 0
Their attack does (successes to hit + 1) damage.
Enhancements
-
Faithful
(Summoned minions last indefinitely.)
-
Sure-Fire
(Does not require a roll to activate and will always succeed, barring outside interference.)
Drawbacks
-
Mage
(Activating this Effect requires two consecutive Actions of Concentration. It involves intricate use of the body and voice. If interrupted during activation, the Effect fails. It is obvious you are preparing to activate an Effect during casting.)
-
Activation Ritual - Open your vein and allow them to drink your blood uninterrupted for three rounds (9 seconds)
-
Fuel
(Using this Effect consumes some material good in addition to its other costs.)
-
Fuel Unit - 1 dying but not dead human
-
Sacrifice
(Instead of Exerting your Mind or expending Source, activating this Effect gives a Severity-1 Injury that worsens by 1 Severity each time you use an Effect with Sacrifice. This Injury cannot be prevented by any means or healed before 1 day has passed.)
Parameters
Minion Stat Power:
2 ( 7 )
