Flesh of Fiery Touch

This ritual turns the caster's own skin into a protective trap. After the ritual is completed, any Kindred who touches the bespelled Warlock's flesh will receive a single point of aggravated damage in the form of a searing burn. The damage can be resisted with Fortitude, but if the vampire continues to hold the caster, he will continue to take damage. However, the caster cannot inflict this damage by touching someone; he must himself be touched. Although this effect lasts until dusk of the next day, it is not without its price; during the two- or three-hour ritual, the casting vampire must consume a small burning coal, causing an aggravated wound and costing a Willpower point (to bring himself to do it). While the enchantment is in effect, the Kindred's skin takes on a subtle bronze tint. This hue can be noticed with a straight Perception roll (difficulty 8) by a character who intensely inspects the Warlock. The caster is also unnaturally hot to the touch.
