It has long remained a closely guarded secret of the once-proud clan, and is all but forgotten in the Modern Nights by vampiric society. Recently the discipline reemerged with the Salubri Antitribu, but these warriors put it to decidedly more vicious ends. The Sabbat accepts into its ranks the childer of Adonai. They are consumed by the need for vengeance, and are creatures of rage, dubbed Furies by their Sabbat compatriots. They are not honorable creatures, but rather bitter knights driven to destroy the Tremere and seeking vengeance for their founder's destruction.<br>
<small>''Note: This is a attempt to merge the disciplines of Obeah with Valeren into one V5 format discipline, including the paths of healer, warrior and watcher. Most of the following powers are a combination of former powers that alone are not so beneficial compare to same level powers of other disciplines, considering the inherent flaws like an eye on the forehead or the obligation to touch for activating some powers. The discipline gain more versatility for lack of potency. The use only of amalgams with Auspex, Fortitude or Obfuscate to convert Valeren does not seem to me to be a sufficient method. I prefer to imagine Samiel developing a new way to use the Saulot's discipline rathen creating a new one. Upon the fact it becomes a unique discipline for the Salubri clan in V5, it is not so disturbing, after all Saulot came back from Asia with it.''</small><br>

'''Pariah's caress'''<br>
 
Watchers must contend with the Wan Kuei, other vampires who do not subscribe to the idea of the lineage of Caine, and stranger beings such as mages. They learned long ago that the best defence lies in misdirection — if enemies are looking at someone else, they aren’t looking at the Salubri. With this power, a Watcher may charge her blood with the combined hatred and attention of all her foes, and then transfer that animosity to another with a bloody touch.<br>
 
* '''Cost:''' one rouse check<br>

* '''Dice pools:''' Manipulation + Valeren<br>
*
* '''System:''' The user has his blood well up under her fingertips, touches her target (smearing the blood on them, possibly requiring a Stealth roll), then the user must roll Manipulation + Valeren (difficulty 2). Each success extends the power’s duration for one evening. The target gain for the duration the flaw “suspect”. He suffers a two-dice penalty to all Social tests as he finds himself within a miasma of annoyance and suspicion. Even mundane or positive acts draw significant negative attention, inspiring jealousy and causing every flaw to be scrutinized. <br>
