== New Rules ==
Diablerie may be performed on a vampire at Hunger 5, usually in torpor or restrained. With a Strength + Resolve roll at Difficulty 34, the prospective Diablerist draws out the hearts blood of the Vampire and consumes it. On a failure, the victim slips into Hunger Torpor.
Once the spark is consumed, the victim slips into Final Death, the Diablerist and the Victim fight a battle of Humanity + Blood Potency against Resolve + Blood Potency. Neither side can use Willpower to reroll. On a success, the Diablerist consumes the victim without issue, on a failure, the Diablerist takes Aggravated Willpower damage equal to the margin. If the Willpower Tracker is filled with Aggravated in this way, the Diablerist vampire becomes possessed by their Victim. If the victim wasn’t of low Generation or high Blood Potency, the Diablerist may Win at a Cost and take Diablerie Flaws (Gehenna War, p. 45) to avoid possession. In either case, the VampireDiablerist:
* Loses 1 point of Humanity
* If the Victim had a greater Blood Potency, gain gains Blood Potency dots equal to half of the difference in Blood Potency, rounded up, minimum of 1.* If the Victim had a lower Generation, lower lowers their Generation equal to half of the difference in Generation, rounded up, minimum of 1.* Gain one dot Spreads (3 - Blood Potency gain, 1 minimum) dots in the Victim’s highest Disciplines that was greater than the Diablerist’s, up to their rating. * The Diablerist gains Gains black veins on their Aura, persisting for a year, or for years equal to the increase in generation.

=== Optional Rules ===
* If the victim wasn’t of low Generation or high Blood Potency, the Storyteller may offer Diablerie Flaws (Gehenna War, p. 45) as a Win at a Cost to avoid possession. * '''You are what you eat:''' If using a system that allows changing discipline powers, only give Discipline powers known by the Victim and allow changing any of the Vampire's current powers to one known by the victim.
