Predator (CR. x5)

1) Size The predator knows its pray long before it makes the killing blow.

System: roll perception + investigation targeting an entity. 1 success: the predator knows whether it is human or not 2 successes: the predator knows all of its physical flaws and weak points 3 successes: the predator knows any supernatural banes it may have

2) Stalk Once the predator has found a target, it is nearly impossible for the victim to escape.

System: Spend a willpower while targeting a human within line of sight and roll wits plus survival. The predator knows what direction the prey is in and roughly how far for successes hours. With an additional expenditure of willpower, the duration is increased from hours to days. This ability can only be active on [wits] human at a time.

3) Kill A skilled predator dispatches its pray with cold, quick efficiency.

System: If the predator deals 3 lethal to a creature when targeting a vital area on a human or creature with human-like anatomy, the organ being targeted is destroyed. This usually results in death.

4) Escape When another human witnesses the work of a master predator, they are disinclined to believe their eyes. Even those engaged in conversation with the slain will simply walk away as though the other person had somewhere else to be.

System: As the predator takes the life of a human victim, she may spend a willpower and roll manipulation plus stealth. All humans within successes times ten feet will not react negatively to the death for successes times 3 seconds. Awakened beings may contest willpower with the caster to resist.

5) Spree On occasion, the predator moves through groups of people, killing indiscriminately. With each kill, she finds the task becoming easier.

System: Whenever the predator slays a human, she may roll a die regain one willpower (difficulty 6), one gnosis (difficulty 8), and move one health level down a level (aggravated to lethal, lethal to bashing, bashing to cured) (difficulty 7) for each human she has slain so far that scene.

For example, if kills her third human this scene, she would roll three dice. If her result for this roll is 6, 7, 8, she would regain three willpower, heal two phases of health, and regain one gnosis.
