Blood Resonance
Certain diciplines can be enhanced by a kindred should they choose feed themselves with the appropriate type of blood.
Additionally, resonance comes in temperaments, which can be well-balanced, fleeting, intense, or acute. An acute resonance is self-sustaining, an effect called "Dyscrasia" adopted from Hippocrates:
- Well-balanced temperament brings no closer advantages.
- Fleeting temperament brings no direct advantages, but can be used for Thin-Blood Alchemy
- Intense temperament increases a Discipline corresponding to the resonance type.
- Acute temperament has the same effect as intense but gives the drinker additional bonuses.
