Willpower spent extends the duration of this<br />

Philosophy by one week.<br />

Cost: 2 Breath, or 1 Breath over two turns<br />

(to apply)<br />

1 Breath to activate<br />

1 Willpower to extend duration by<br />

one week<br />

Dice Pool: Presence + Socialize + Furnace +<br />

Blood – Composure - Furnace<br />

Action: Instant<br />

Roll Results<br />

Dramatic Failure: OUCH! <strong>The</strong> connection<br />

between <strong>Dragon</strong> and subject is broken, and<br />

the Blood <strong>Dragon</strong> must start over from the<br />

last level that has not expired. If it’s been<br />

more than a week, she’ll have to start from<br />

scratch.<br />

Failure: <strong>The</strong> Blood <strong>Dragon</strong> cannot bind her<br />

subject with No Greater Justice, but may try<br />

again so long as she maintains physical<br />

contact with him.<br />

Success: <strong>The</strong> invisible link between Blood<br />

<strong>Dragon</strong> and subject gets one final, grim<br />

clause. If the subject breaks from his oath<br />

completely, he will suffer an exorbitant<br />

amount of automatic lethal damage equal to<br />

the <strong>Dragon</strong>’s Presence + Socialize +<br />

Furnace + Blood proficiency, minus his own<br />

Composure (and Furnace if applicable)… if<br />

the <strong>Dragon</strong> wishes it, that is (and pays a<br />

point of Breath). This damage may only be<br />

inflicted once per application, but usually<br />

ends the subject.<br />

Exceptional Success: Identical to success,<br />

but the link lasts an extra week.<br />

Bone<br />

Bone<br />

<strong>The</strong> Philosophy of Bone focuses on<br />

re-knitting wounds, quickening reflexes,<br />

sensing incoming danger, and otherwise<br />

ensuring that the Scholar can survive what<br />

he has prepared for.<br />

<strong>The</strong> <strong>Dragon</strong> examines a body's<br />

health as accurately as if she were in the<br />

doctor's office with advanced medical<br />

equipment. Though she may not possess the<br />

know-how in theory, her imagination fills in<br />

the gaps and her sheer force of will ensures<br />

such fill-ins are not just stipulation.<br />

By rolling this Philosophy, the<br />

<strong>Dragon</strong> is able to determine what sorts of<br />

diseases, poisons, physical ailments, wounds,<br />

drugs, or other miscellaneous issues are<br />

affecting her subject. She gets an instant<br />

snapshot of how healthy someone is and<br />

what might be troubling them, though she’ll<br />

need to research to understand how serious a<br />

condition is.<br />

In addition, the successes rolled on<br />

Check the <strong>Core</strong> form a pool of free dice<br />

which can be distributed amongst further<br />

Bone Philosophy uses against the subject.<br />

<strong>The</strong>se dice are temporary, which means<br />

they’re used up when they’re added to a roll.<br />

All the dice in the free pool expire at the end<br />

of a scene, or if the Bone Philosophy is<br />

applied against another subject.<br />

Cost: None<br />

Dice Pool: Intelligence + Medicine +<br />

Furnace + Bone – Composure - Furnace<br />

Action: Instant<br />

Roll Results<br />

Dramatic Failure: <strong>The</strong> Bone <strong>Dragon</strong><br />

misdiagnoses the subject, and treatment is<br />

likely to go in the wrong direction. She may<br />

move on to higher levels of Bone, but she’ll<br />

suffer a -5 penalty until she succeeds on<br />

Check the <strong>Core</strong>.<br />

Failure: <strong>The</strong> Bone <strong>Dragon</strong>’s mental triage<br />

care fails to launch, and she is completely<br />

stumped regarding the subject’s condition.<br />

She will have to rely on mundane means of<br />

diagnosis, or try the Philosophy again.<br />

Higher levels of Bone cannot be used until<br />

this level has succeeded.<br />

Success: Successes turn into free pool dice<br />

for Bone uses. In addition, she becomes
