                        "*": "'''Vaulderie:'''  The system for the Vaulderie is as follows: \n*The first time a character observes the Vaulderie (or during creation of a Sabbat character), roll a d10 for each character whose vitae is part of the rite. That number reflects the Vinculum the character feels toward the individual whose blood she ingested; see the chart for effects generated by individual Vinculi. Every time a new member participates in the Vaulderie, each player should roll a die and record the score for her Vinculum rating toward that character.\n\n*Afterwards, each time the pack partakes of the Vaulderie, each player should roll one d10 for each of her Vinculi. If the result is higher than the Vinculum score, increase that Vinculum score by one (to a maximum of 10). If the result is a 1, lower the Vinculum score by one (to a minimum of 1).\n\n*Lastly Vinculum never break or fade over time.

This scar is usually on the forehead, the back of the neck, or one of her hands; the locations where a vampire is anointed during her Creation Rites. The ever-bleeding mark is in the shape of the Sabbat sigil, and clearly identifies the vampire as a traitor to the Sword of Caine. The vampire will bear this wound until their Final Death, or until they are pardoned \u2014 an act which can only be done by the Regent. They lose all Status dots and position in the Sect, cannot benefit from any Sabbat ritae, and all Vinculums to them are immediately broken \u2014 although Vinculums they have toward others still remain.\n\n'''Acceptance Ritus:'''  Those among the pack who have undergone this ritae may call upon an Acceptance Ritus retest against other members of the pack in all Social Challenges once per night.\n\n'''Welcoming Ritus:''' Once performed all those who participate gain two bonus traits on social challenges against anyone else who has also participated in this ritae.

If the snake bites the vampire they are cursed for the rest of the night; they must 2 additional traits on all challenges.

Doing so allows the uninvited creature to stay for 10 minutes or travel up to 50 feet into or through the holy ground. If a vampire or demonic creature is present when the consecrated ground is activated, they must spend the Willpower or Mental Traits immediately or leave.

They may interact with, say their goodbyes, and gives thanks to the dead Sabbat member. However once the Ritae finishes the \u201cspirit\u201d of the dead vampire leaves.
