I will strive to obey your laws, but I must fulfill other duties as well.


This is a Vampire House Rule This is not allowed.



Mysterious strangers from the East, the Demons allude to divine heritage and a heavenly mission, but show only grace and favor to vampires of the West. The temptations of the foreigners' services are great, but what ultimate price to they charge; Western cities rarely see more than three or four Rakshasas at a time as these immigrants are quick to admit they're fortune hunters or refugees.


Weakness

Like all Nosferatu, Rakshasas possess an ineradicable aura of horror that penalizes dice pools based on Presence or Manipulation Attributes. In their case, the revulsion comes in part from Demons’ grotesque and inhuman appearance. Without Obfuscate, no Rakshasa can ever pass for human.

These warlike Kindred also inherit a hot temper. The 10 Again rule does not apply to Rakshasas on rolls to resist anger or hunger frenzies. Additionally, any 1’s that come up on such a roll are subtracted from successes. (This latter part of the weakness does not affect dramatic-failure rules.)
