quickly through the bloodstream. Also, this<br />

trauma does not stack with others inflicted<br />

by Venoms, so its rating is only ever the<br />

points manifest in Venoms. If multiple<br />

<strong>Dragon</strong>s attack with Venoms, only the<br />

highest applies.<br />

While this Aspect is manifest white toxins<br />

exude from the <strong>Dragon</strong>'s natural weaponry.<br />

Depending on the other Aspects manifest,<br />

that natural weaponry varies from teeth,<br />

claws, horns, or blades. <strong>The</strong> venom loses its<br />

potency almost instantly in the air, and is<br />

thus only useful when introduced to a<br />

bloodstream.<br />

More More More about about Trauma<br />

Trauma<br />

Trauma is very a very useful combat<br />

infliction, but in the case of Venoms it is<br />

only as potent as the <strong>Dragon</strong>’s poison.<br />

Though highly unlikely, should a <strong>Dragon</strong><br />

disband some points of Venoms while<br />

trauma is in effect, trauma is likewise<br />

decreased. For example, should a<br />

<strong>Dragon</strong> move from Venoms 5 to Venoms<br />

4 while an enemy is suffering Trauma 5,<br />

that enemy would then only suffer<br />

Trauma 4.<br />

Trauma itself is a new combat affliction<br />

introduced in this book. You can read<br />

more about it in Chapter 3 on page XX.<br />

Features of stature and entitlement,<br />

the bureaucratic drive of these traits fit best<br />

in the hand of an Inheritor. <strong>The</strong>re’s a certain<br />

degree of callous pomp that makes others<br />

hesitant to embrace the Goblet. It doesn’t<br />

lock them out, but it certainly makes things<br />

difficult.<br />

Besides the Heart Suit, these Aspects<br />

are the cheapest available to an Inheritor.<br />

All other methods must pay the highest price<br />

to purchase Aspects of this method, as they<br />

do not suit their Heart as readily.<br />

on their toes, and can get the drop on a<br />

would-be surprise attacker.<br />

Odd points manifest increase the<br />

<strong>Dragon</strong>’s initiative by 1, and even points<br />

manifest increase her Defense by 1. When<br />

taking a dodge action, the <strong>Dragon</strong> may add<br />

her points manifest in Flight of the King<br />

after the doubling. This works almost<br />

identically to the “Brawling Dodge” Merit<br />

(World of Darkness Rulebook, page 110),<br />

except Defense is doubled and then<br />

increased by Flight of the King (Unlike the<br />

Merit which increases instead of doubling,<br />

though this Aspect may be used in<br />

conjunction with the Merit if preferred). For<br />

more information on taking a dodge action,<br />

see the World of Darkness Rulebook, page<br />

When this aspect is manifest, the <strong>Dragon</strong><br />

acquires a static 'tic' that works its way<br />

through her interactions. She may hiccup<br />

after saying a certain word, snap her fingers<br />

every ten seconds, or finish her sentences<br />

with a single laugh.<br />

Playing more on the idea of <strong>Dragon</strong>s<br />

as movers and shakers and less on the idea<br />

of <strong>Dragon</strong>s as massive fire-breathing<br />

monsters, Regal Stature provides a level of<br />

impact to the <strong>Dragon</strong>’s presence in a room.<br />

<strong>Dragon</strong>s take this trait when they want to be<br />

seen, and want their words to be heard.
