Augustus Family

The Augustus Family is a Kindred family who claims to be descendant from the House of Scipiio. Whether or not that is true is unknown, as recorded history is flimsy at best. The Augustus Family has over time, become it's own separate bloodline within the Gangrel clan.

Disciplines
The Augustus Family has developed into its own separate bloodline, coupled with a unique Discipline.

Vitaic Supremacy
Thick Blood (•) The Vampire has basic control over their Vitae allowing you to willfully harden your blood to absorb blows. By spending a point of Vitae, gain one general armor per dot of Blood Potency for an entire scene.

Blood-Brother (• •) By spending three points of Vitae, a Kindred can create a semi-sentient creature made of flesh and blood. This creature can only take simple commands, such as "Guard me", or "Attack them". The creature only lasts a scene before violently exploding in a shower of gore and blood.

Material Destruction (• • •) The Vampire's control over Vitae has greatly expanded. By expelling Vitae any weapon that strikes your body can be shattered. Spend two Vitae, roll Blood Potency - Weapon's Size. Gain successes equal to Size to shatter the weapon.

Blood Scythe (• • • •) The Vampire is able to redirect and harden blood to be used as an exterior weapon. Spend 5 Vitae, choose an arm. That arm now counts as a bladed weapon with damage half of Blood Potency rounded up. If off-hand, suffer penalties without the proper merit.

Grasp of Life (• • • • •) The Kindred has mastered the art of Vitaic Supremacy to the point that they can direct the blood of other creatures. As long as the creature has taken Lethal damage, the Vampire may roll Dexterity + Vitaic Supremacy versus the victims Stamina. Each success replenishes one Vitae and deals 1 Lethal per Vitae taken as the blood drains from the wound and effortlessly glides towards the caster. The blood can then be consumed or stored.

Member Groups
Like most organizations, the Augustus Family has allies. Specifically, they are lesser groups of Kindred who are undeserving to join the ranks of the family, but still prove useful enough to keep around.
 * Krakow Stalkers - The Krakow Stalkers are one of the first Kindred groups ever encountered by 363. They are a relatively weak group made up mostly of fledglings and neonates. They are mostly used as canon fodder by the family to avoid Augustus casualties.
 * Darkland Prowlers - The Prowlers are a group of Kindred who own the Darklands closest to Lake Zollern. They are arguably one of the most powerful factions within the Darklands.
 * Maxian's Enforcers - Maxian's Enforcers are a blood cult that worship Maxius as their god. They are currently fighting for control of the Darklands along every other faction.
