Vampires endowed with this
Discipline possess preternatural strength. Potence enables vampires to leap
tremendous distances, lift massive weights and strike opponents with terrifying
force. Even the lowest ranks of this power gift the Kindred with physical
might beyond mortal bounds. More powerful immortals have been known to leap
so far they seem to be flying, toss cars aside like tin cans, and punch through
concrete as if it were cardboard. While the mental Disciplines are
awe-inspiring, Potence's brute effectiveness is formidable in its own right.
Clans Brujah, Giovanni, Lasombra and Nosferatu are the primary possessors
of this Discipline. Still, members of other clans often make a point to search
out someone who can enlighten them in the ways of Potence.
System: The player rolls all Strength-related tests normally,
but then adds an automatic success for each point he has in Potence. Thus,
the character succeeds at most Strength feats without needing to make a roll
at all. In melee and brawling combat, the automatic successes are applied
to the damage roll results.
