Dungeon world vampire compendium class2/19/2024 ![]() The beautiful and lustful, those completely infatuated with the vampire, models and actors and movie stars, compelling public and private speakers from politicians to car salesmen, YouTube sensations and Instagram influencers.Īnyone in the presence of the vampire finds their attention inexplicably drawn to them. As with most Disciplines, its higher powers can leave puzzled witnesses behind, especially once the effects wear off. A subtle power, people seldom realize Presence has affected them at all. In combat, only the Dread Gaze and Majesty powers have any effect, as charm is of little use when someone has decided they want you hurt. Presence power effects do not stack, so someone using Awe and Entrancement on the same subject would only add their Presence rating once for any Social-based Persuasion rolls. Detecting the use of Presence is very hard unless one has access to Sense the Unseen (Auspex 1) and can even then be too subtle to notice unless one is looking for it specifically. The Discipline does not transmit electronically unless the user possesses Star Magnetism (Presence 5). In order to be affected by Presence, the subject must be in the physical presence of the user or at least within earshot. While this is useful in that victims are cognizant (unlike Dominate), they are not under the direct control of the user and are thus often unpredictable. Presence affects the emotions of those subject to it, not the minds. Effective as a lure as well as a defense, vampires with Presence enjoy an easier nightlife at the expense of forgetting what feelings projected at them are normal and which are compelled. Many Presence practitioners use this Discipline to easily acquire feeding vessels, while others use it do stalk the night as creatures of horror, making weak-willed kine flee terrified, unsure of what they’ve just seen. ![]() A mortal’s greatest fear could stand before them and suddenly look like the most radiant creature on Earth. Used to attract victims or disperse them in fear, Presence allows crowd control, emotional manipulation, and enforced devotion. Presence is a Discipline that expresses this bipolar existence.

Most vampires are creatures of grace and lethality. Nicknames: Superstardom, Enthrallment, Sublimitas ![]() I know where the dig is, and it’s still going on, but I’m too terrified to return. I couldn’t help but get the hell out of there and never look back. I fell to my knees, but she commanded me to leave, and it was like she was a nightmare from my childhood all of a sudden. It sounds ridiculous, but somehow I’d fallen head over heels in love with her within a minute. Is that the word? I couldn’t look away from her. She was… I guess “beautiful” is a simple word when describing her poise, her confidence, and her clarity of voice… She asked why I wasn’t working and I stuttered and stumbled over myself. I got to see the big black sarcophagus - I guess obsidian, but why’s there an obsidian coffin in this part of the world? I wanted to get closer, but then this woman, she seemed to be leading the dig, stopped me. They were all too hard at work, and the odd thing for how late at night it was? They all seemed happy. Nobody seemed to notice I was even there, at least not at first.
