IHMN: There is a difference between mental editing, and wholesale lying... why, you have mastered the true secrets of Darkstar-ism! Maybe you'll get banned too!
FZ: I was looking up Blood Treachery - ghoul mages get screwed big time if they make a habit of living of vampire blood. They CAN learn the vampiric Disciplines of their domitor (as well as getting a free dot of Potence and gaining the ability to learn a dot of Fortitude) , but they get Blood bonded, they get addicted, and after a while their Avatar falls off.
krylo: What experiements are these?
EDIT: Bad news for vampires...

From the arcane texts of the bizarre House (and
family) Castrovinci comes this weapon against the Race
of Caine. Pentacles of Mars and Enochian supplications
to Michael, warrior Archangel and patron of the Sun,
draw a lance of sunlight from elsewhere in the world
with which to attack a vampire. More powerful mages
can summon a literal shaft of light from Heaven, searing
scores of massasa with holy illumination. Although the
Rote is vulgar almost anywhere in the 21st century, it
remains a valuable, if dangerous, trump for those
members of the Order who have truck with vampires.
(Mages who are known to use this Rote have a tendency
to get tracked down and wiped out by potent vampire
servitors, as they are obvious threats.)
System: The Correspondence 2, Forces 2 version of
the Rote summons a single slender beam of sunlight that
must be directed at a vampire's exposed flesh in order to
harm him. The more powerful variant of the Rote can
draw a shaft of sunlight, around a city block in size, to
the mage's location, spelling almost certain doom for any
vampire in the vicinity (as well as decreasing the mage's
odds for a long, happy life drastically thanks to
Paradox). Note, however, that the mage must draw the
light from somewhere, and he should familiarize himself
thoroughly with the Time Zones before attempting this
Rote.
